The famous saying by Socrates (below) marks the starting point for this week's newsletter from Deepak Chopra.

Entitled 'Knowing Nothing and Knowing Everything Are Exactly the Same,' it explores the limits of intellectual knowledge (cause-effect) vs the infinite possibilities of nondual, mystical forms of gnosis.

Well worth a read.

Here's a quick quote:
"Take any brain cell, and you can reduce it to organic molecules, which are composed of basic atoms like oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon. These lead back to subatomic particles, which in turn have a shadowy existence as ripples in the quantum field.

Assuming that you could analyze these ripples beyond the simplest elementary particles (which you can’t), the activity at the quantum level has zero link to what matters most about being human: self-awareness, love, compassion, creativity, truth, beauty, insight, and spirituality."
