Tens of thousands of people from all over the world are joining together for the tenth anniversary of 9/11 for a remarkable experiment: to discover whether their collective intention can bring greater peace to an area of conflict. The experiment is being monitored and measured by a team of scientists from the Universities of California, Arizona, and Princeton.
The 9/11 Peace Intention Experiment, organized by Lynne McTaggart (author of The Intention Experiment) will take place in a 20-minute period every day for eight days. As such it will replicate the 2008 Peace Intention Experiment, carried out on Sri Lanka, which showed a 74% reduction of violence after the experiment and a demonstrable effect when studied through statistical time analysis.
Monitoring the effects will be a scientific team comprising University of Arizona psychologist Dr. Gary Schwartz, University of St. Petersburg State University physicist Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, Dr. Roger Nelson, a psychologist formerly of Princeton University and current director of the Global Consciousness Project, and Jessica Utts, a professor of statistics at the University of California at Irvine.
The 9/11 Intention Experiment marks the latest of 23 scientifically controlled, web-based experiments carried out by The Intention Expeirment to test the power of thought to change the physical world. Thousands of volunteers from 90 countries around the world have participated in rigorous, laboratory-controlled experiments. Twenty of these experiments have shown significant positive results. Dr. Gary Schwartz and his team at the Laboratory for Advances in Consciousness and Health at the University of Arizona reported the results of six experiments in a scientific paper presented at a recent Society for Scientific Exploration conference.
