In Deepak Chopra’s new book “You are the Universe” (February 2017), Dr. Chopra (www.choprafoundation.org) concludes that while the old science of an external physical universe has been mortally wounded by the "new" science of quantum physics, quantum physics itself raises more questions than it may be answering. As a response, he offers a new interpretation of the universe—one infused with consciousness and which can serve as a reliable foundation for a future science that is more inclusive, more holistic. This new interpretation is based on “qualia” (units of experience) instead of quanta (units of energy), and describes a “human universe” that not only coheres with our subjective experiences in every day life, but informs what it means to assume the identity of a cosmic self. In this episode, January 12, 8 PM EST, Dr. Chopra illuminates what visionary quantum pioneer Wolfgang Pauli meant when he said that "the science of the future reality will neither be psychic nor physical but somehow both and somehow neither," and why it matters. Dr. Chopra is interviewed by Claudia Welss of The Institute of Noetic Sciences. Chopra, Welss and Series Host Dr. Kurt Johnson are members of the noted "Evolutionary Leaders" (www.evolutionaryleaders.net).

Kafatos, You Are the Universe: Discovering Your Cosmic Self and Why It Matters (February 2017), Dr. Chopra concludes that while the old science of an external physical universe has been mortally wounded by the "new" science of quantum physics, quantum physics itself raises more questions than it may be answering.
