Truman, Sarah E., Samadhi in Space – an Interview with Apollo 14 Astronaut Dr. Edgar MitchellArchived 2015-05-19 at the Wayback Machine, ascent, Fall 2007. Retrieved 7 May 2015. "The experience in space was so powerful that when I got back to Earth I started digging into various literatures to try to understand what had happened. I found nothing in science literature but eventually discovered it in the Sanskrit of ancient India.
