Everyone at Agni Institute is a volunteer! Many are participants. Many are both!
As a participant you can engage in studies, workshops, exercises, discussion groups, classes, research and explorations of consciousness. Expand your perception, abilities and understanding of who and what each of us is. We welcome all sincerely interested in understanding the nature of consciousness and reality. And we invite anyone sincerely interested to join in various explorations in consciousness and research projects – some of which involve laboratory settings methods and instrumentation.
As a volunteer you can engage with like-minded individuals in learning to build projects and programs that advance human understanding and capability.
Still the mind; find inner peace and one-ness; increase focus, clarity, and creativity; subdue the noise of the world and begin to realize your higher nature. At Agni Institute meditation is taught and practiced as the principal skill for the investigation of the nature of consciousness, existence, and reality. If you wish to learn about and begin to meditate, or have already begun and wish to learn more, we have many practical offerings to help you establish meditation as a part of your lifestyle. And what if you have meditated for many years and wish to deepen your practice? We invite you to participate in thought-provoking and heart-centered discussions and sessions in order to directly experience and understand consciousness in its most fundamental states. We invite you to look for announcements at the website regarding classes and practice sessions at the Agni Institute. Contact us for more details.
Please note: in keeping with long-standing tradition there is no charge for any of these activities or programs.
We not only read about the natural world but desire to experience it first hand, for our own understanding. At Agni Institute we draw on the books of Agni Yoga and others to source a near endless supply of possible experiments to investigate correlations between consciousness and the natural world. So many concepts are yet to be investigated and so many have possibilities to be applied and bring benefits today. Agni Institute is engaged in designing investigations and experiments based on these suggestions and invites participation in this work at a variety of levels – all the way from the enthusiast looking for some hands-on activities to the technically trained and skilled professional investigator looking for research opportunities. As this work evolves, so will the breadth and depth of the experiments we design and make available on this site. Longer term plans include design and organization of group experiments that engage researchers and collaborators from all over the world. Please revisit our site to see our "Collaborative Research" section coming soon.

A primary mission of Agni Institute is the study of the nature of consciousness. This includes an exploration of the nearly 1/3 of peoples’ lives spent in a state of sleep. In the Subtle Realm group we are involved in understanding the aspects of functioning of consciousness and physiology that impact the experience of dreaming. Learn about the varieties of experiences in the dream state and how to actively affect your awareness and capabilities while dreaming. Come to understand your involvement in the various states of sleep through learning from a combination of traditional wisdom and current research. Participate to develop the skills of conscious activity in the dream state and engage in individual and collective experiments as learning experiences.
