Deepak Chopra is an assumed conditioned identity .
The conditioning is cultural, economic , historical , scientific and possibly religious .
My questions have occupied the greatest minds in both eastern and western philosophy and have to do with
fundamental reality .
If matter is fundamental reality how did it learn to think, experience wonder, mystery, bewilderment, reverence ,
humility, awe , ecstasy, transcendence and also skepticism?
Why does it want to know itself?
Brushing away these ontological and epistemological issues will not do . Calling it an emergent property without
explaining how or why, is , in my opinion ( my brain's opinion if you will , is a cop out )
