In a sprawling, dreamlike conversation, Jefferson Hack talks to the Indian-American author, guru and one of the most profound thinkers of our time, Deepak Chopra. Touching on evolutionary consciousness, collective dreaming and quantum biology, part one of this epic discussion offers an immersion into the many maps of Chopra’s revolutionary mind. He emphasises the importance of meditation and self-inquiry in accessing the “core consciousness”, as well as the need for creativity and shared vision to address global challenges: his is a peaceful, just, and sustainable world.In part two of the conversation, the pair expand on the topics that have guided Chopra’s life’s work – this time through the lens of his own personal experience. From his addictive personality as a young doctor to the life-changing moment he met the Maharishi Yogi, who inspired him to study consciousness and write his first book – the first of 90 – Chopra reveals his coping strategies, and much more.Thanks to…Executive Producer: Faye YoungAssistant Producer: Jaime Burford Sound Recordist and Editor: Chris Smith Title music: Jack PeñateGraphic identity: Sam HallAdditional graphics and motion design: Calum Glenday and Aleksandra TalachaEditors for anothermag.com: Sophie Bew and Violet Conroy Special thanks to Harry Slater, Sophie McElligott, Susanne Waddell, and 180 Studios for the loan of their studio space.
