Newly released Justice Department records from the Epstein archive reveal hundreds of private messages exchanged between bestselling author and wellness figure Deepak Chopra and convicted financier Jeffrey Epstein. The communications, spanning from 2016 to 2019, include references to “bringing girls,” philosophical exchanges about “God” and “the universe,” and a controversial “Oh my God” message Chopra later described as “divine transcendence.” Documents also show a $50,000 payment from an Epstein-linked foundation. Chopra has denied any involvement in criminal activity, and the DOJ files do not accuse him of wrongdoing. However, the tone, timing, and volume of the exchanges are raising serious questions.
