Consciousness and the Nature of Personal Reality - Inspired Dialogues
By design, this will be an intentionally facilitated, potentially mind expanding metacognitive experiment.
Within this process, specific thought-provoking topics pertaining to the nature of personal reality will be introduced and (at times) expanded upon by the facilitator. By design all participants will have the opportunity to share (or not share) their thoughts, experiences, and insights.
The intention behind this offering is to expand collective awareness, amplify hope for the future of humanity and the planet, and to share potentiating information.
Here we shall endeavor to enter a stream of meaning – flowing among us and through us and between us—a flow of meaning in the whole group, out of which will emerge some new understanding, something creative. When everyone is sensitive to all the nuances going around, and not merely to what is happening in one's own mind, there forms a meaning which is shared. And in that way we can talk together coherently and think together. It is this shared meaning that is the “glue” or “cement” that holds people and societies together.
In a dialogue such as this there is no attempt to gain points, or to make your particular view prevail. It is more a common participation, in which people are not playing a game against each other but with each other. In a dialogue, everyone wins.
