Deepak Chopra states in a video that you are not your thoughts.

He says that your thoughts are influenced from birth by your circumstances, your parents and the culture where you live.

There is truth to this statement, but it is a surface value level of truth.

Maharishi teaches a far deeper and more profound truth.

You are not the author of your thoughts, your words, or your actions.

All thoughts, words and actions are governed by Natural Law.

Natural Law emerges from the field of Being and vibrates, manifesting as the entire relative field, including your mind and physiology.

Who you are is beyond the relative field.

You are Pure Consciousness, Divine Being, your Self.

To experience who you are, transcend in your meditation practice.

Be your Self.
