"International meltdown result of intense human greed": Deepak Chopra

March 29th, 2009 by Rahul Dewan

Deepak Chopra, during a recent visit to New Delhi, gave an interview on CNBC-TV18. I loved what he said, and could not resist making a post about the interview. See the complete interview transcript.

An excerpts from the interview:

…we have been so programmed to think about me and mine. Now the fact is the world is showing us right now that there is no such thing as me and mine. The economic meltdown is global. There is no national solution to it. If there is going to be a solution it is going to have to be global. Terrorism is a global problem. If there is going to be a solution it is going to have to be a global solution. The ecosystem and the damage that we have inflicted on the environment, which is global warming is a global problem. So, in a sense we are being forced to recognise our interdependence. A few years ago this was a philosophy, now it is a fact.
