Cassandra Vieten gives an overview of the Future of Meditation Research (FOMR) initiative recently launched by IONS to explore the deeper aspects of meditation and transformational experiences.

While research to-date has focused on the secular and cognitive aspects of meditation, a broad range of reported events -- such as past-life recall, synchronicities, precognition and extra-sensory perception, experiences of God and deities -- remains uncharted scientific territory. IONS formed the FOMR group to support research and researchers in exploring these domains.

Cassandra Vieten PhD is President/CEO and a researcher at the Institute of Noetic Sciences.
