Zone1 What is your opinion of Deepak Chopra and his non-religious beliefs about Jesus, God and all traditional religions?

[MarathonMike]

I have always found him to be an interesting and insightful speaker. I don't "follow" him in any formal way but his beliefs align with what I've always thought about traditional religions. Do you agree with Deepak Choprah in his views? Just curious

I've heard him a few times, years ago and also found his ideas interesting. Hadn't seen or heard from him since, until he showed up in the E files. That alone makes for a hard NO

Deepak Chopra, the renowned wellness author and alternative medicine advocate, has come under scrutiny due to the release of documents in early 2026 linking him to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The correspondence reveals a far closer relationship than previously known, with hundreds of messages exchanged between 2016 and 2019, well after Epstein’s 2008 conviction.

Key Aspects of the 2026 Scandal

• Close Relationship & Meetings: Documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) indicate that between 2016 and 2019, Chopra and Epstein communicated regularly, with dozens of documented meetings, including visits to Epstein’s homes in New York City, Florida, and Paris.
• "Bring Your Girls" Emails: Emails reveal that in 2017, Chopra invited Epstein on trips, telling him to "Bring your girls" and suggesting he use a fake name, according to reports in the Washington Post and CNN.
• Controversial Correspondence: In March 2017, Chopra wrote to Epstein: "God is a construct, cute girls are real," and "Cute girls are aware when they make noises".
• Support & Advice: In 2019, leading up to Epstein's arrest, Chopra was in contact with him, advising him to "Stay silent Meditate" and, according to a text exchange reported by Yahoo, expressing that he was not concerned about the "toxicity" of Epstein's press, says the Religion News Service.

I find it interesting that the only responses thus far have nothing to do with what Deepak Chopra believes. I expected he would be attacked in smeared in some way.

Re-read my post........I found his beliefs interesting (agreeing with you), but did not attack him in any way. Finding out he was involved with Epstein, and I no longer respect him, isn't an attack nor a smear.

Even the other members post isn't an attack or smear, it's just stating his Epstein involvement.

Deepak Chopra believes in Jesus. It has been many years that I last listened to him, but he is wise.

I take time over the year, to watch YouTube videos of those who died, saw Jesus, talked to him, got his lessons, and returned to life. Jesus explains a lot of things to them. Jesus is 100 percent love per every person dying who came back to life. Jesus is fact. We think of the many dimensions, space, velocity, and others, yet many persons rule out Jesus as fiction and have never bothered to actually study him. A video of a Muslim woman who was killed by a Truck that hit her car impressed me and she did not see Allah; she talked to Jesus. She was shocked. She told her husband after she came back to life she talked to Jesus and he was furious. Muslims call Jesus a dead prophet. But to them he was a mere human.

To be more accurate, Deepak Chopra believes that Jesus was a man who transcends formal religion rather than a God being as depicted in the Christian Bible.

I read your post. My opinion on the Epstein Files is that they have become a convenient way to attack or dismiss anyone associated with Epstein or "The Files" whatever that means. Chopra's alleged involvement with Epstein is irrelevant to the thread topic.
