Mountain Quest Research Center
“I stand in the middle of the Mountain Quest library, surveying the shelves and shelves of books, many thousands, knowing that each one represents at least one person’s life focus, and a large number have many more authors participating. Each person is so unique, and through individuation has so much to add to the whole. And I can’t help it. Some books I pull down to read for a third time, underlining and notating, each time learning something new.” [Dr. David Bennet, Co-Founder of the Mountain Quest Institute]
​
​The Research Center is dedicated to supporting the Mountain Quest Institute’s quests for knowledge, consciousness and meaning. Much of the work (published under MQIPress) is offered as open source and downloadable from this site. (Scan through the tabs at the top of the site.)
