Paul and Diane Temple

“We have always believed that the Institute of Noetic Sciences is the most critical path opportunity for us to really make a difference because IONS explores the “trim tab” issue of consciousness itself. Our commitment and enthusiasm has not abated for over 30 years. Our personal lives have been blessed beyond description by the people, experiences and knowledge the association with IONS has brought us. ”

The same kind of visionary and focused effort that launched Apollo 14 can now be turned toward solving humanity’s most challenging concerns. To achieve this, the Board and staff of the Institute of Noetic Sciences invite your participation in our Circle Program – a community of like-minded individuals who demonstrate a deeper commitment to the noetic sciences and substantially support IONS' innovative work now and in the future. We know that every gift of talent, time, and financial treasure is important! We honor Circle members for their contributions with many benefits, including invitations to join special excursions.
