Deepak Chopra Career

Chopra envisioned a career in Western medicine, and in 1970 moved to the us, leaving his home country with just $25 in his pocket and therefore the promise of a residency at a hospital in New Jersey. Following the residency, Chopra landed in Boston, where he quickly rose to chief of drugs at New England Memorial Hospital.

It’s during this point that Chopra read a book on transcendental medicine that changed his life, and eventually his career path. As his interest in medicine deepened, so did his view on the bounds of Western medicine.

After a gathering with transcendental mediation guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Chopra quit his job at New England Memorial Hospital and began the Maharishi Ayur-Veda Products International, a corporation that specialized in alternative products, like herbal teas and oils. Co-founded with the Maharishi, the corporate successfully launched Chopra into the planet of other medicine. Chopra helped oversee the creation of several affiliated clinics and, he became well-known among celebrities including Taylor, Jackson, and dressmaker Donna Karan.
