Apollo 14 Moon Mission Astronaut and Founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences  EDGAR D. MITCHELL, Sc.D., (from 1973 Bio) is president of The Institute of Noetic Sciences in Palo Alto, California. Noetics (from the Greek root word nous, "mind") means the general study of consciousness. The Institute is a non-profit, tax-exempt corporation dedicated to research and education in the processes of human consciousness to help achieve a new understanding and expanded awareness among all people. He is also chairman of the board of Edgar D. Mitchell & Associates, Inc. of Monterey, California, a commercial organization promoting ecologically-pure products and services designed to alleviate planetary problems. On February 5, 1971 while serving as lunar module pilot of the Antares during the Apollo 14 lunar expedition, Dr. Mitchell became the sixth man to explore the surface of the moon. Because of the experiences on this mission he gained a new perspective of life on our planet--a perspective that eventually led him to engage in his present efforts to explore the potential of the “inner space" of human consciousness and to thereby find better ways to increase mankind1s sense of personal fulfillment and global unity. Dr. Mitchell also served as support crew for Apollo 9 and as backup crew for Apollo 10 and Apollo 16. As an engineering test pilot, he has flown all categories of conventional, turboprop, jet and rocket aircraft and the Apollo aircraft. In October 1972 he retired from the navy with the rank of Captain. He then formed Edgar D. Mitchell & Associates, Inc. The following March he founded The Institute of Noetic Sciences. Both activities keep him engaged on a full time basis in the search for solutions to human problems and the techniques for realization of human potential. During the year following his retirement from the navy, Dr. Mitchell authored approximately 40 articles and lectures, and participated in two major experimental efforts in psychic research. Institute

The Play of Light is about the Beauty of Light, of Sound and of Form. As each of these is deeply resonant with the other, the underlying unity that they share is revealed within their dance; and can be realized through direct experience. Within this experience, the mind becomes still and spontaneous Meditation arises. I have developed this technique over a period of 45 years, and this is as effortless and joyful a path into meditation as I am aware of. |
