Lucy Liu: One Outstanding Humanitarian
You wrote this beautiful chapter for me that everyone just loved, and it really captured so much of what I was trying to say in the pieces themselves, so I appreciate that. Then, you invited me to learn about meditation, a very separate meditation than I had been doing. I’ve been doing that now for years, so it’s been really a wonderful relationship.
Deepak Chopra: –Has it helped you? Has the meditation helped you?
Lucy Liu: Dramatically, dramatically. I think meditation is incredibly opening. As you said, there are things that you have in your heart and your life that you want to go towards, and it helps you manifest those things.
Also, the idea that the more you meditate, the more you manage to connect to an external world, which then helps you connect physically in this world that we’re in. So, if I start thinking about you or a friend of mine, and then you happen to email or call me, it doesn’t come across as a coincidence. It’s actually because we sort of connected somehow, outside of where we are.
Deepak Chopra: –A deeper reality.
Lucy Liu: Yes, exactly.
Deepak Chopra: Yes, well, they say, in the deeper domain, we are members of one body and one consciousness.
Lucy Liu: I really believe that.
Deepak Chopra: That starts to become your experience.
Lucy Liu: I’ve also become very aware of objects around me. Objects are, you know, created from molecules, and molecules are so basically connected. If you throw something or if you treat it poorly, then it will then reflect that energy. It’s just being careful of an overall awareness of your environment. I think that it feeds the way that you are, and the people that you surround yourself with.
Deepak Chopra: Over the years, I’ve met a lot of people in the entertainment business–artists, film stars, musicians. There’s a lot of dysfunction, and a lot of people have addictions.
