Episode notes
Curiosity Sparked By Science Fiction
- Dean Radin grew up reading science fiction and wondered if those stories reflected real phenomena like telepathy and precognition.
- His childhood curiosity led him to pursue scientific investigation rather than personal mystical experiences.
Applying Science To Inner Space
- The Institute of Noetic Sciences applies rigorous scientific tools to study 'inner space' and interconnectedness experienced in mystical states.
- IONS blends traditional scientific training with hypotheses about nonlocal mind and holistic reality.
Criticism As A Signal
- Controversial scientific work routinely attracts strong criticism, which Radin treats as an indicator he may be on a meaningful path.
- He views sustained pushback as part of scientific progress rather than a reason to quit.
