Title:
Gazing at the Minds Eye

Summary:
IONS Senior Scientist Dean Radin summarizes two experiments to explore the nature of the mind’s eye. In one, an eyetracking system was used to test whether seers could “see” the future. In another, meditators and non-meditators were asked to use their mind’s eye to perceive a beam of photons in a distant, light-tight optical apparatus. Both experiments provided intriguing glimpses of the role of the human mind in weaving the fabric of reality.
