01What it does

What Nonduality Institute Inc does

Mission

The mission of the Nonduality Institute is to advance scientific understanding of nonduality through conducting research into neural signatures of nondual awareness and its effects on cognitive, affective and perceptual processes.Nonduality is the basis of both our authentic maturity as individuals and our oneness with all life. The process of realizing nonduality opens the body, heart and mind to the subtle, unified expanse of nondual awareness, transcending the duality of self and other. Scientific research into the neural correlates of nondual awareness can further our understanding of the nature of consciousness, and of the brains functioning in optimal states of wellbeing. It can demystify this advanced stage of human development and help make the awakening to nonduality more accessible to a growing number of people throughout the world.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Program

RESEARCH - research interests are the nature of nondual awareness, how realizing this aspect of human consciousness affects the perceptual, affective and cognitive processes, and the experience of embodiment. Research into the neural correlates of nondual realization may contribute to the understanding of the nature of consciousness, and the brains functioning in optimal states of well-being.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 51% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of NONDUALITY INSTITUTE INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

NONDUALITY INSTITUTE INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 51% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

51% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund NONDUALITY INSTITUTE INC.

Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% — broadly stable.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

Where its funders are

51% of NONDUALITY INSTITUTE INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $230k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside New York, across 1 state.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $244k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
