Your deepest desire: To experience what Chopra refers to as the “spontaneous fulfillment of desire” in every moment, means letting go of old ideas and embracing the present with love and enthusiasm. Chopra does not believe in meaningless coincidences. “Miracles happen every day,” he writes. “Not just in remote country villages or at holy sites halfway across the globe, but here, in our own lives.”
Example: A person might be retrenched from what was once considered a dream job and is depressed about the loss. If, that person sees the event as a “miracle”, chances are that same person will find a more fulfilling career opportunity, if that person allows the miracle to manifest.
Chopra contends that miracles surround us and manifest from hidden sources all the time but most of us are not awakened to our inner purpose to take notice of them. Ascribing these miracles to mere coincidences, keeps most of us trapped in states of anxiety and attached to victim-driven identities that keep us from discovering our life purpose. Chopra teaches that if we recognize everything that happens to us as a potentially life-altering event we can awaken spiritually and discover the most extraordinary things about being alive.
Synchrodestiny
When you live your life with an appreciation of coincidences and their meanings, you connect with the underlying field of infinite possibilities. Chopra calls this state “synchrodestiny” where it becomes possible to achieve the spontaneous fulfillment of our every desire. Whether it is to reverse the aging process (as he suggests in his book Ageless Body, Timeless Mind) through quantum science, or overcoming trauma through the repetition of positive affirmations (The Deeper Wound), Chopra consistently challenges his readers to “get out of the box” of conditioned preconceived thoughts and open up to new ideas where all the magic begins.
Find your purpose
Finding your purpose and noticing miracles requires understanding the profound nature of things, recognizing the wellspring of intelligence that endlessly creates the universe, and yet embraces the intention to pursue specific opportunities for positive change. The most important stage of living “synchrodestiny” occurs when you become fully aware of the interrelatedness of all things, how each event in all our lives affects the other.
In Chopra’s world miracles happen every day, every hour and every minute of our lives. At this moment, the seeds of a perfect destiny lie dormant within you. His intention is to help you sprout those seeds so that you can live a life that is more wondrous than any dream you ever imagined.
