Funding the Questions
Others Won't Ask
Researchers exploring consciousness, ancient civilizations, and unconventional topics face a critical challenge: traditional funding sources won't support their work. SOL exists to change that.
Research Areas
Consciousness Studies
Non-local awareness, meditation research, near-death experiences, psi phenomena. What is consciousness and how does it relate to physical reality?
Alternative Archaeology
Pre-ice age civilizations, anomalous sites, underwater structures, dating controversies. What did ancient peoples actually know?
Ancient Text Analysis
Original language scholarship, esoteric interpretations, cross-tradition convergences. What wisdom is encoded in these texts that mainstream academia overlooks?
Modern Convergences
Where physics meets mysticism, neuroscience validates contemplative practice, and independent research methods arrive at similar conclusions.
Our Methodology
Investigating controversial topics with rigorous standards.
01Evidence Hierarchy
Every claim is tagged with its evidence level. No conflation of speculation with established fact.
02Transparent Standards
Source all claims. Flag biases. Disclose conflicts of interest. Publish negative results. If we can't find evidence for something, we say so. That's how real investigation works.
03Individual Verification
You don't have to trust us—test it yourself. Track your dreams, practice meditation, observe patterns in your own consciousness. The mystery traditions always insisted on personal verification. We honor that principle.
04Cross-Validation
Agreement across independent methods is how we know we're touching truth. When ancient texts, modern physics, and personal experience point to the same patterns—that's signal.

Early access
Why this matters: Academic institutions avoid "fringe" topics. Private donors want ROI. Brilliant researchers can't investigate essential questions. SOL creates a new funding pathway—transparent, community-driven, focused on truth over career safety.
