This really worked

I was in a place in my life when I became curious about love and using this process actually helped me to find the greatest love of all. I found me and then he came.

Love is awesome.

Thank you Deepak Chopra.

Little nuggets of truth throughout

I enjoyed this. Recommended by a friend, she said it would help rewire my thinking if I listened to it daily. I sobbed the first time I listened to it. I really hope it helps me in the long run. I recommend to anyone wanting to open their hearts but are finding it difficult.

it works!

when it comes to dating, I used to be awkward and unsuccessful. after listening to this audio, I've become very confident and I'm having fun! It's because I used to try too hard and try to portray confidence and dominance. I've read too many of those pick up artist books. this audio by Deepak Chopra instantly began working to allow my natural charm to surface. I listened to it every night for a week or two and especially before dates. now, I've integrated the principles, so I listen every now and then, and also sometimes before dates. it's all about "being yourself." it used to make me angry that people would say that because no one explains how to do it. Listening to this audio unlocked my ability to be myself. it turns out that I'm actually really attractive! Thanks Deepak!

Simply Divine

Simply Gorgeous testament to understanding love with Deepak's seductive, wise voice narrating-the music is gorgeous-light, airy, rhythmic, deep!

Amazing

One of the most beautiful stories of LOVE . The intricacies and requirements to fulfilling the true center of the Torah.

beautifully done!

i loved the stories and the descriptions of the beloved and the lover and the roles played

I wanted to love this

The quotes and readings felt uninspired but I really liked the simple music. Was also hard to hear every word as DC's voice would cut out or trail off.

Mostly good

In the sample audio this seemed like it would be a great set of meditations on a deeper “love” as a topic. Digging into self-love and self-compassion as a way to love ourselves and all the world deeper.

Deepek offers some great wisdom in this audio, but there where parts that left me confused and disconnected as “love” started moving into lust and/or craving and religious territory a bit which was a turnoff for me. It felt a bit Christian focused which isn’t bad in some ways, but love to me is bigger than any one faith and tying the lust portion in felt odd or misaligned.

M. Scott Peck has a great definition of live that I like - “Love is the will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s own or another’s spiritual growth… Love is as love does. Love is an act of will — namely, both an intention and an action. Will also implies choice. We do not have to love. We choose to love.”

He brings spiritual into the topic, but it seems a bit more inclusive of all cultures than just Christianity to me - which I like.

I was not looking for expanding my faith in a religion but rather seeking a way to live bigger than individual connections. There is some of this, but others areas felt like he was casting a wider net to serve identities instead of excluding identities and ego to just BE love and loving.

I gave this audio a 3 star rating because there are some great parts that I enjoyed. The parts that felt misaligned for me though with probably limit my relistening to this audio. Meditations work with repetition and just being present with them. I’m not sure I can do that as I feel I need to be guarded in some areas due to misalignment.

The music and pace and overall tone is really well done but the since these were long meditations including everything and the kitchen sink you are unable to easily pick and choose sections that are great and skip parts that may not suite your needs.

But soothing music

I don’t like when someone says now go make live to yiur spouse!!!!!music good
