Dr. Edgar Mitchell discusses ET Contact, Consciousness, and the Experiencer Research Project. Interview date was March 2, 2015. Interview by Rey Hernandez, J.D. The late Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Dr. Rudy Schild (a 75 year old Emeritus Professor of Astrophysics at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Attorney and Experiencer Rey Hernandez, and Australian Researcher Mary Rodwell, are the Co-Founders of an academic based not-for-profit titled "The Dr. Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial Encounters, FREE". Dr. Rudy Schild is the Executive Director of FREE. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLSMC... Shortly before Edgar's passing he agreed to have FREE named after his legacy. Attached is the video where he agreed to this naming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XR9X6... FREE is comprised of a 5 retired Ph.D. academics and 5 lay researchers. FREE has established a Research Committee, co-chaired by Dr. Jon Klimo, a retired tenured professor of Psychology who is recognized as one of the world's leading researchers on the paranormal. Jon also taught research methodology for almost 40 years. (http://www.jonklimo.com/about.htm) The other co-chair is Dr. Bob Davis, also a recently retired tenured professor of Neuroscience who, together with his wife, saw 2 UFOs almost 5 years ago while on vacation in in Sedona, NV. (https://theufophenomenon.com/) The other Ph.D.s are Dr. Leo Sprinkle, Dr. Illobrand von Ludwiger, a physicist from Germany, and Dr. Rudy Schild. All are on our FREE Board of Directors. The other members of our Research Committee and Board of Directors are Kathleen Marden, Mary Rodwell, Rosemary Ellen Guilley, and Giorgio Piacenza from Peru. Over the last 2 years, FREE has undertaken the world's first comprehensive academic research study on individuals that have had UFO related contact experiences with non human intelligence. Our FREE Experiencer Research Study has 4 Phases. Phase 1 and 2 are quantitative surveys comprise of almost 600 questions. Phase 3 is comprised of 70 open-ended questions, and Phase 4 will be a formal structured interview. As of December 1, 2016 when we closed our English language survey, we have received more than 2,200 responses for Phase 1, 1,300 responses to both Phases 1 & 2, and 780 responses to Phases 1-3. Our interviews will begin in July or August of this year. We are also conducting our research study in the Spanish, French, and German languages and hopefully other languages in the future. Our preliminary research findings from Phase 1 and Phase 2 are contradicting much of the information that is being widely circulated in the Internet and what the majority of Ufologists are presenting in the UFO lecture circuit. There are possibly many reasons why our study has revealed such different data results. First, no one has ever undertaken a comprehensive academic study of experiencers of UFO related contact with non human intelligence. Thus, there is very little statistical data to compare our research to. There have also been a few studies in this field but all have focused on "abductions", most had small samples, most had a small number of questions solely related to "abductions", all were not anonymously collected, and the publicity was solely to UFOlogists and abduction researchers. Our research methodology was completely different than what had been utilized in the past. Please review the attached document titled "Research Methodology" which discusses our academic methodology prepared by retired Professor Jon Klimo and the entire Research Committee. All of our preliminary data from Phase 1 and 2 is available on our new FREE website: http://experiencer.org/survey/#phase1 Look at the sub-menu titled "Experiencer Research" and there you will find numerous documents on our Research Study including findings from Phase 1 and 2 along numerous thematic topics (Types of ETs, Family History, Various types of contact experiences, Are the ETs Positive/Negative/Neutral, Spirituality Topics, Abductions, ET Breeding, Information Received from the ETs, Life Changes Inventory, Physical Experiences, etc.) The Dr. Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial Encounters (FREE) Email: EXPERIENCER.CO@gmail.com Website: EXPERIENCER.ORG
Neuroscientist DR. Bob Davies: Science/ Spirituality/ Extraordinary Experiences - Carol Rosin - 5/1/2018
Spiritual, mystical, and extraordinary experiences (SMEE) discussed by Dr. Robert “Bob” Davis, a renowned sensory neuroscientist, author, and lecturer, represent various types of non-ordinary or altered states of consciousness, and associated encounters with a so-called “supernatural world.” Many of these experiences have been widely reported throughout human history across cultures, but today have a significant meaning. These experiences are most often characterized by perceptions of oneness/interconnectedness with the universe(s), positive emotions, alterations of spatial and temporal awareness, insight and wisdom, a sense of true spirituality, the absence of physical and mental objects of ordinary consciousness, and the compelling sense that the experience feels “real,” often resulting in the recognition of the message of “love.” A few studies even suggest that an aspect of consciousness (ASC) may actually represent the key unifying characteristic that explains each distinct SMEE (e.g., out-of-body and near-death experiences, extrasensory perception, and interactions with non-human intelligence, among others). The limited studies and associated results, however, warrant the need for sponsored funding to help build upon prior research findings. The personal and societal implications of the conclusions, if sufficiently validated, may have a profound effect on our perspectives of ourselves and life. This is especially needed at this time of turmoil and accelerating extinctions. If we can better understand how consciousness works, its relation to the origin of life, and possibly even further developed to the benefit of the individual, then the research initiatives may help to move us forward in ways that will benefit all. A multidisciplinary approach, implemented by leading scholars with sufficient resources and support, is required initially to initiate this objective. Although our current medical and scientific concepts are inadequate to explain all aspects of reported SMEEs, certain features appear to correspond with some of the basic principles Dr. Davis explains, from quantum mechanics, such as ESP (extra-sensory perception), knowledge of existence in another dimensions without a body, the perception of time as if the past, present, and future are existing simultaneously and instantaneously, and the instantaneous information exchange in a timeless and placeless dimension. After writing over sixty scholarly articles, two books, and speaking on various relevant issues around the world, Dr. Davis shows that, collectively, such principles may provide the so-called “missing links” for development of a unified field theory of consciousness. These concepts, supported by both theoretical, experimental evidence, and anecdotal evidence, may have impotent positive implications for all concerned, especially for decision makers, and those who influence them, to improve our standard of living and quality of care for the greater good. This new evidence, discussed by Dr. Davis, suggests that what may be considered by current scientific mainstream standards (noting that newly developed scientific, principles, methods, and language are required…) as “anomalous” activity, may actually be related to an explainable by yet to be discovered principles that has the potential to provide significant benefits on a personal, societal, and planetary level in many unforeseen ways.

NDES, OBES, UFO Contact And Consciousness: Are They One Phenomena
Published on Aug 30, 2017
In this lecture I will present data from our FREE Experiencer Research Study that demonstrates the many similarities between Contact with Non Human Intelligence (NHI) via UFO related contact, via Near Death Experiences (NDEs) and via Out of Body Experiences. (OBEs). The Dr. Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial and Extraordinary Experiences, or FREE, firmly hypothesize that all of these experiences are in fact one phenomenon which needs to be studied jointly and not separately. The Dr. Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial and Extraordinary Experiences, or FREE, is a registered 501c3 academic research institute that is comprised of 11 retired Ph.D. academics and lay researchers exploring "What is Consciousness" by undertaking cross comparative research on individuals that have had contact with Non Human Intelligence (NHI) via the “CONTACT MODALITIES” (contact via perceived UFOs, NDEs, OBEs, Remote Viewing, Channeling, Ghosts/Spirits, Hallucinogenic Journeys, Orbs, PSI Contact, etc). The FREE organization is not a Ufology organization. Instead, our mission is to explore the possible nature of “Consciousness” by conducting comprehensive academic research on the various extraordinary experiences within the Contact Modalities. The majority of the FREE Board of Directors, including the late Dr. Edgar Mitchell, believe that the field of what we know as "Ufology" is a very limited paradigm to understand what is really happening with "UFO Contact" because it is primarily focused on a rudimentary "Nuts & Bolts" approach. Dr. Mitchell firmly believed that the "Experiencer" of contact with non human intelligence is the "Key" that will open the door towards understanding “What is Consciousness and Contact with NHI”. FREE hypothesizes that a cross comparative research of “Experiencers” of the Contact Modalities may provide insight into the validity of various models of consciousness. Once the cross comparative research has been undertaken among the various Contact Modalities, numerous commonalities will be derived that are shared between all of these experiences. All of the variables identified by all of the Experiencers of the various Contact Modalities can then be utilized in trying to develop a viable hypothesis for a "Unification Theory of Consciousness and Contact with NHI". In addition, FREE hypothesizes that all of these Contact Modalities are in fact one phenomenon and should not be studied as separate phenomena which is the modus operandi of the research organizations associated with these fields. This is a limited "stove pipe" approach that does not recognize the numerous commonalities shared by each of these Contact Modalities. Many researchers such as ESP Researcher Dr. Dean Radin, NDE researcher Dr. Kenneth Ring, UFO researcher Dr. Jacques Valle, academic astrophysicist Dr. Rudy Schild, Princeton trained Ph.D. Physcist Dr. Claude Swanson, Ph.D. Neuroscientist Dr. Bob Davis, retired Ph.D. academic Dr. Jon Klimo, paranormal/UFO researcher Dr. John Alexander, paranormal researcher Brad Steiger, and even the late Dr. Edgar Mitchell, and so many others, have publicly expressed that there is a possibility that ALL of these "paranormal contact phenomena" might in fact be one phenomenon being expressed via different modalities.
