New Edgar Mitchell DVD Released

The evening before 9-11, our Seattle IONS Community group met with 40+ people for a Bohmian dialogue. The topic went to Peace. But we also went to a deeply felt sense of Peace, only to have that Peace paradoxically shattered the next day.

What perfect timing to deliver Dr.Edgar Mitchell's Mission of Peace when we meet again this year on 9/11 for our annual IONS dialogue of remembrance!

Apollo Astronaut Edgar Mitchell was one of the few men privileged to have walked on the moon. He was a courageous pioneer 35 years ago, taking one of the longest journeys known to man.

But what happened to Dr. Mitchell on his way back from the moon? What was that catalyzed a journey of exploring the frontiers of consciousness for the rest of his life, personally seeking out a collective means to spread the message of Peace?

This story, fostering a meditative trance, as views from space float across the screen, describes the other longest exploration Edgar made--the one back to self. On that spaceship, Edgar experienced an amazing transformative inner journey fraught with the peril of paradox: beauty and pain.

The quest for navigating that perilous journey back on planet Earth, and to find a way to bring humanity to appreciate what Edgar could not speak, began another exploration. Edgar sought out psychics, wise men, scholars, and scientists. It brought him to found The Institute of Noetic Sciences and to find consciousness in a life of altruism.

Edgar Mitchell's movie, produced by his daughter as a Father's Day present, is an awesome meditation, dedicated to honoring the beauty that Edgar sees in humanity, seeing space through Edgar's eyes, hearing his message with a background of chosen music to lead you to experience the root of transformation, consciousness itself.

On this September 11, 2006, a day our Seattle IONS group traditionally meets for deep dialogue on Peace since the evening before 9-11, we will view Dr. Mitchell's beautiful, inspiring, and deeply transformative message of Peace. With views of space, the DVD touches the soul in the deepest, most memorable way. It will be our platform for exploring the deep space of Bohmian dialogue.

Aside from founding IONS, Dr. Mitchell found that peace will come when we all find our selves and contribute from a place of collective altruism to the transformation of a planet in crisis. Edgar's message says that each of us has a responsibility to reach into our own transformation and "be the change".
