Post 1: The "Integrity" Call-out (X/Threads)
.@PenguinRandom @HarmonyBooks: How can you continue to publish "Awakening" when its author was caught joking about "prey" and "cute girls" with a convicted sex trafficker? Spiritual integrity isn't a "construct"—it's a requirement. #DeepakChopra #DropChopra #EpsteinFiles
Post 2: The "Receipts" Post (Instagram/Facebook/X)
"God is a construct. Cute girls are real." – Deepak Chopra to Jeffrey Epstein, 2017.
The #EpsteinFiles reveal a side of Chopra the public never saw: facilitating "guests" for a predator and celebrating legal wins for an abuser. We demand @PenguinRandomHouse drop him immediately. Swipe for the emails. 📄👇 #DropChopra #BelieveVictims
Post 3: The Call to Action (X/Threads)

Subject: FORMAL COMPLAINT: Ethical Violations and Termination of Relationship with Deepak Chopra
Dear [Executive Name],
I am writing to you as a concerned reader and a member of the public to express my profound disappointment and outrage regarding the continued association between Penguin Random House and Deepak Chopra.
The unsealing of the Epstein Files in February 2026 has made it clear that Mr. Chopra maintained a familiar and ethically bankrupt relationship with Jeffrey Epstein long after his 2008 conviction. The content of these emails—including Mr. Chopra’s assistance in sourcing "guests" for Epstein and his dismissive language regarding the victims of sexual abuse—is in direct conflict with the values of integrity and human dignity that your organization claims to uphold.
By continuing to publish and promote Mr. Chopra, particularly his 2026 title Awakening, Penguin Random House is providing a platform to an individual who normalized the behavior of a serial predator.
I request that Penguin Random House:
Cease all current and future publication contracts with Deepak Chopra.
Publicly address the specific evidence found in the February 2026 DOJ release.
Donate future proceeds from Mr. Chopra’s existing catalog to organizations dedicated to the protection of minors and the support of sex trafficking survivors.
I look forward to your public response and an indication that your company values human ethics over profit.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[Your Location]
