“Responsibility means not blaming anyone or anything for your situation, including yourself.” – Deepak Chopra


When you’re in the business of spiritual enlightenment, you should at least try to maintain a facade of moral integrity.

Unfortunately, that’s difficult when your name appears at least a dozen times on Jeffrey Epstein’s calendar.

Celebrity guru Deepak Chopra told CBS News he was just trying to help the world’s most notorious sex offender get some sleep.

Oh, and then there was the money. You always need more money on the road to Shambala. Here’s what else Chopra said:

“Jeffrey Epstein was introduced to me by Barnaby Marsh, former CEO of the Templeton Foundation, as someone who could potentially fund research on the brain and consciousness.”

Emails between the two suggest there was more.

“Lat night was a blast. Ended 1 AM,” Chopra emailed Epstein in 2017. To which Epstein replied, “I’m glad.”

Who knows what “a blast” means to a guy who once told me that the self is but a hallucination.

Worse was a 2016 exchange in which Chopra asked about a lawsuit filed by a woman who claims Epstein sexually abused her:

Chopra: “Did she also drop the civil case against you?”

Epstein: “YuP.”

Chopra: “Good.”

Yeah, that must have helped Epstein sleep.

Breathe deep, like you’re getting a nice massage. (Comic: ChatGPT)

Earlier this month, the House Oversight Committee released more than 20,000 pages of Epstein’s emails, exposing the pedophile’s creepy reach into the lives of the rich, famous and powerful.
