The most important thing we inherit is the ability to go beyond our inheritance.

The Institute for the Study of Human Knowledge (ISHK) is dedicated to cross-cultural understanding and to bringing important research on human nature to the general public.


Our programs and publications include the Robert Ornstein Legacy project, the Idries Shah Translation project, and The Human Journey website, which uses a multi-disciplinary approach to the questions of who we are and how the past has made us. It suggests that we must know what is unchanging about human nature and recognize what we can and must consciously change to ensure the future for ourselves and our planet.
