Hello friends I'm Deepak Chopra. This is daily breath.

Since you and I don't share karma, we don't have the exact same desires.

Remember, the desires are a product of karma.

Karma means past experience and interpretation of past experience.

But if you follow the chain of desire, in the end,

we are all the same being with ultimately the same purpose. We want to be happy. We want to be fulfilled. We want meaning and purpose in our lives. We want to feel safe and we want to feel safe and we want freedom freedom to make choices.

We are all heading in the same direction but we can take different routes.

Today let's try an exercise that I call the silent witness.

When you have time and when you're not driving or busy,

then you can try this exercise.

Go to a silent quiet place somewhere,

you won't be disturbed.

Put on some soft favorite soothing music. Close your eyes. Turn your attention

from the music to that awareness that is listening to the music. So turn your attention to yourself,

that which is listening, the who that is listening.

Begin to notice two different aspects of yourself

as you're thinking about listening.

Who's doing the listening?

Also, who's doing the thinking?

Notice the silent witness, silent listener,

who's always present in between the thought, in between the music, in the

music and in the thought. Not only in you, but in this space around you.
