David Peat compared Pari to an alchemical vessel—a place where transformation can come about—as well as an opportunity to pause for a moment and re-assess one’s life. It’s a unique opportunity open to everyone. \n\n\n\nPlease contact Eleanor if you would like more information about this event at: eleanor@paricenter.com \n\n\n\nThrough presentations and informal discussions in a convivial atmosphere you will learn about and have opportunities to discuss the insights and research findings of world-renowned experts on what are called ‘exceptional’ experiences. \n\n\n\nThe subject fits under the umbrella of consciousness research\, which is currently enjoying a huge renaissance in terms of general interest and academic momentum. \n\n\n\nThe study of consciousness requires that we take seriously the many flavors of human experience\, even those—ranging from psychedelics and lucid dreaming to synchronicities\, near death experiences and mystical phenomena—that could be said to enter through the ‘backdoors of perception.’ Such experiences have until now been largely avoided by academia and left to lie beyond the border of what is typically explored scientifically and discussed in public. \n\n\n\nHowever\, now it is more openly being asked whether such experiences can actually inform—and even transform—not just neuroscience and fundamental physics but also our very understanding of the nature of reality and our collective and individual place in the world. \n\n\n\nThe scientific study of consciousness is now acknowledging that it has reached a stage where such parcels of human subjectivity have to be taken seriously. In fact\, it is playing an important role in the recognition that such ‘backdoors of perception’ have the potential to profoundly impact our current state of knowledge in many fields. \n\n\n\nWe at the Pari Center seek to bring together world-renowned experts from a variety of disciplines to meet together in person and deepen our insights on the workings and bases of such experiences\, while also exploring creative and rigorous frameworks to integrate such a constellation into a coherent understanding. You are cordially invited to join us. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresentations\n\n\n\nThe Evolutionary Ascent of ConsciousnessAllan Leslie Combs \n\n\n\nA Review of the Experimental Evidence for Parapsychological PhenomenaEtzel Cardeña \n\n\n\nLocal and Non-local Consciousness ComponentsPaul Grof \n\n\n\nDivine Dreams: The History and Culture of the Dream as Medicine in the Western Esoteric TraditionSarah Janes \n\n\n\nArchives of the Impossible: The Further Reaches of the Imagination and the Future HumanJeffery Kripal \n\n\n\nThe Hermeneutics of Exceptional ExperiencesRoderick Main \n\n\n\nDean Radin \n\n\n\nThe Subtle Art of Mediumship: Effectively Communicating with ConsciousnessTanya Sacramento \n\n\n\nMetaphysics\, Mysticism\, and Psychedelic ResearchPeter Sjöstedt-Hughes \n\n\n\nInformation\n\n\n\nAdditional Information about the event – the pdf \n\n\n\nAdditional Information about the Pari Center – the pdf \n\n\n\nTerms and Conditions – the pdf
