The Wisdom Tree follows a neuroscientist who delves into the depths of consciousness and explores the concept of parallel universes. Along her journey, she encounters Indian classical music and Eastern philosophy, diving into the realms of spirituality and quantum entanglement.

Chopra explores the foundation of Vedanta, while Thurman -- the father of actress Uma Thurman -- provides the Buddhist point of view in this meeting held in 1999 at New York City's Tibet House.
