The inspiring story of two brothers who immigrated to
America from India and took very different paths to becoming
world-renowned healers and teachers.
At a time when America is fiercely divided on the issue of
immigration, Brotherhood tells the story of two brothers who
pursued the American dream to its fullest expression. In the
early 1970s, Deepak and Sanjiv Chopra joined a flood of
immigrants looking to make a new life in America, a land of
opportunity. Having grown up in postwar India amidst the
sudden freedom of the 1947 liberation, their childhood was a
blend of the exotic, the mythical, and the modern. Their
father was one of the first Indians to become a
Western-trained cardiologist, while their extended family
maintained deep roots in ancient spiritual traditions.
Brotherhood follows the Chopra brothers as one becomes a
world-renowned spiritual teacher and the other rises to the
top of Western medicine to become a professor at Harvard
Medical School. Their story will fascinate and inspire
anyone who still believes in America’s capacity to foster
achievement and reward hard work.
