After 32 years of exploring the science of the mind and consciousness, we at the Foundation for Mind Being Research have seen a great deal of confirmation that we humans are more than the body/brain complex. Through our studies of remote viewing, quantum mechanics, distance healing, subtle or torsion energy, near death experiences, out-of-body experiences, spoon bending, Biogeometry, dowsing, communication with plants, etc., we have come to understand, as have many in scientific and non-scientific fields alike, that we are all interconnected. Science has proven what the enlightened minds of various wisdom traditions have been saying for thousands of years. As Chief Seattle famously said, "All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself." This understanding, which is rapidly coming to light across all sectors of society, is integral to creating a mindset that will allow us to solve the myriad challenges which face humanity today.

We at FMBR have been feeling an impulse to increase awareness in the general public about the scientific basis for understanding that what we do to the planet, we do to ourselves. It is our hope that, as humanity begins to change its worldview from one of separation to one of interconnection, we will find the collective will to expand and implement the many innovative solutions that are being discovered every day. We believe that the spirit of inquiry and innovation which is the essence of scientific exploration will enable us to co-create a world and a future that works for everyone.

As a result, the all-volunteer board and staff of FMBR have been very busy planning the future direction of our non-profit organization -- expanding the scope of the organization in order to share our learning with a larger audience. The core values and monthly lectures of FMBR will remain at the heart of the organization, and we will add expanded educational and experiential opportunities. Along with education, we will sponsor and support research in the areas of mind-being/consciousness and of subtle energies and the utilization of zero point energy.
