Another culprit … Deepak Chopra … ever heard his mumbo jumbo which makes frequent use of QM terminology ? Chopra's is a master of deliberately confusing real science with pseudoscientific mumbo-jumbo. His following is huge too, (unlike Gaede & Mathis), which I find very disturbing …

Chopra has been criticized for his frequent references to the relationship of quantum mechanics to healing processes, a connection that has drawn skepticism from physicists who say it can be considered as contributing to the general confusion in the popular press regarding quantum measurement, decoherence and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.

I've seen Richard Dawkins have a go at him, (as only Dawkins can), and I notice that Phil Plait also had a few words to say about him, recently.

Plait's well chosen words below really summarise my feelings on much of this as well…

Of course, it’s true I’m unhappy he’s distorting reality to make a buck. But what makes me really unhappy — yes, even angry — is that he’s shortchanging the Universe. His Universe is small and scary and unexplainable. The real Universe is huge and magnificent and artistic and understandable using math and science.

Very cool words from Mr Plait … he gets my vote on this issue.
Chopra's ramblings are nothing but deceptive and dis-empowering for his gullible followers.

I also notice marked similarities between his ramblings, and certain recent posts here, which seem to me, to fit squarely inside meta-physical interpretations of physical reality, using QM concepts techno-speak.

For me, QM principles support QM. Extrapolating such outside of the quantum world, only serves to add confusion to those not intimately familiar with the well thought out reasons for their invocation in the quantum world.
