Deepak Chopra and Intent

Alison Rose Levy wrote an article of Deepak giving a talk on The Third Jesus, recently in New York City. “When Jesus said, “I’m the son of God,” Chopra tells the audience, “His meaning wasn’t ‘I’m the son of the Boss,’ or I’m his son and you’re not.'” Instead, in Chopra’s view, that declaration invites…

On his way to a conference in Florida, Deepak Chopra talks about three ways we can tell if we’re tuned in–or not.
