In this wide-ranging interview, pioneering researcher Dean Radin speaks with author and philosopher Richard Smoley about the scientific investigation of mysticism, psi phenomena, and the deeper implications of mind and reality.
Drawing on decades of research and spiritual inquiry, Radin addresses what the data actually shows and what it may mean for understanding human potential. Smoley’s incisive questions guide the dialogue beyond skepticism and belief into genuine inquiry.
The conversation invites reconsideration of the boundaries between science, spirituality, and lived experience.
