Luminary: Edgar Mitchell
The Practical Side of “Enlightenment”—Charles Tart
The Intention Experiment: Use Your Thoughts to Change the World—Lynne McTaggart
Civilization: Where To from Here?—Edgar Mitchell
Continuing to see our Earth as a literal and violent battleground for contending world views is a sure course toward the collapse of our civilization. The solution must begin with a change of individual thinking on a very large scale. Edgar opens dialogue and discussion of the ramifications, possibilities, responsibilities, and courses of individual action for sustaining our future, for the benefit of ourselves and our progeny.
In this one minute video, Apollo astronaut Capt. Edgar Mitchell shares the extraordinary story of his mystical experience in space while returning from the moon, an experience that led him to shift his whole vision of reality.
The founder of IONS has a unique vantage point to view intentionality, having witnessed and helped facilitate many new scientific studies, as well as developing a theory of quantum holography that can help explain “miraculous” results that some healers produce. In this interview, he delves into theory but also into his personal story, sharing how group healing contributed to eradicating his own cancer.

Edgar Mitchell on Quantum Holography and the Physics of Consciousness
As leaders in their respective fields, former astronaut Edgar Mitchell and Web visionary Joe Firmage are well equipped to address the opportunities and challenges of science and technology. But what exactly is a “wisdom society” and what role should science and technology play in it?

Marilyn Schlitz introduces Edgar Mitchell at the Friendly Favors event on the IONS campus, June 7, 2006. Edgar focuses on his experience in space, and follows with a question-and-answer session.
We need, Edgar believes, to integrate transcendent experience into science, truly value consciousness, explore quantum holography, and revise our view of biology to include quantum effects. Even more important, though, is moving beyond our problems of ego and greed since we are running out of time to make a shift to a sustainable planet.
Edgar Mitchell presents a half-day workshop entitled "Consciousness and Sustainability" at the IONS 2005 International Conference in Washington DC.
Why is our knowledge flawed? Because, says Edgar, it appears that we're in an evolutionary universe, where knowing evolves along with structure and form. The ancients did the best the could to construct reality the best they knew how to do so. How can we accept the incompleteness of our knowledge, and look to evolve our ways of knowing?
In this interactive session, IONS founder Edgar Mitchell presents exercises that differentiate thinking from awareness. Descartes may have been right when he said "I think, therefore I am," but it is also true that "I was, before I thought."
IONS founder Edgar Mitchell outlines his journey toward embracing theories of the non-locality of consciousness and information, and the implications of such theories for science and society.
Join IONS founder Edgar Mitchell in an exploration of the relationship between new quantum theories and the study of consciousness.
Thirty years ago, he had a transformative vision: On his return trip from the moon, Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell looked out and saw our lonely blue planet suspended like a jewel in the infinite blackness of space.
