The TMO may well have tasked Chopra with putting out misinformation when Chopra was still with the TMO; as Bob suggested, the quotes in this article may have been taken from an old interview. But as I already pointed out, the TMO is not going to use Deepak Chopra, of all people, to transmit its message--misinformation, revisionism, "hidden apologism," or whatever--these days. If the quotes are from a *current* interview, it's Chopra's propaganda, not the TMO's. ------------------------ Yahoo!
