Relationships can be meaningful, difficult, challenging, exciting, rewarding, and devastating. But have you ever thought of relationships as a mirror into your soul?In this illuminating conversation, Deepak Chopra and internationally renowned author Shakti Gawain come from two unique perspectives to explore relationships and what they tell us about ourselves. Chopra uses the ancient wisdom of Vedanta to define the soul and relationship, while Gawain's insights stem from her expertise in personal growth and consciousness. Why are some people attracted to opposites, while others manage to find the perfect soulmate? Why do some people repeatedly enter destructive relationships, while others attract only happiness? No topic is left untouched as these great minds explore everything from the origin of the soul to the "shadow self," from multiple personalities to life after death. Relationships don't just happen; they come to you for a reason, and what they offer can bring you a new understanding about yourself and others.
A world renowned pioneer in integrative medicine and personal transformation, Deepak Chopra MD is the founder of the Chopra Foundation, cofounder of Jiyo.com and the Chopra Center for Wellbeing.
