About This Quote
We are in this life to enlarge the soul, liberate the spirit, and light up the brain. In this quote, Deepak Chopra mentions four great human adventures: evolution, consciousness, liberation, and light up the brain. These are four of the most important challenges that we face. Evolution is our attempt to become more than we were at birth.
Consciousness is our attempt to experience the world around us directly. Liberation is our attempt to be free of all of our past conditioning and limitations, and finally light up the brain is our ability to think clearly and make wise decisions.
