TSC2026 · A pause for awareness
Buddhafly
Open Awareness • Grounded Senses
Imagine your crown opening like butterfly wings: an invitation to notice your body, senses and surroundings.
When distractions crowd in, let attention settle on a breath, a sound or the ground beneath your feet.
Open gently. Notice clearly. Return kindly.

Across Space & Time
A second pass through trance channeling, psychic claims and research on unusual experience. Historical and contemporary accounts meet questions about evidence, interpretation and testable predictions.

· Conference Preview
Before San Diego: seven threads of curiosity
This journal begins with questions rather than conclusions. The Science of Consciousness brings neuroscience, philosophy, physics and other approaches into conversation. AkashicNET’s focus will follow the sessions, encounters and ideas that invite a closer look.
Meditation, psychedelic experience and questions about the boundaries of mind are starting points. “Akashic Exploration” and “Reincarnation Reimagined” are our editorial themes, not official session titles or established scientific findings.
- Meditation & Self-Transcendence
- Quantum Biology
- Non-Local Mind
- Psychedelics
- Akashic Exploration
- NDEs & OBEs
- Reincarnation Reimagined
These are seven themes, not a claim that seven speakers address the Akashic field. Individual talks and research claims will be linked to their sources when reviewed.
IONS is listed among the conference’s Gold Sponsors. Explore the official sponsor listing and the Institute of Noetic Sciences.
BEYOND THE LECTURE HALL · COMMUNITY & CREATIVITY
Consciousness research by day, creative community by night
The conference’s Consciousness Hangout brings a participatory festival feel to the beachfront: informal, self-organized gatherings, no fixed agenda and room for unexpected connections.
- Beachside music & bonfires: collaborative jams and conversation after the evening program, from 9:30 pm.
- Poetry Slam / Zombie Blues: Thursday, 15 October at 9:30 pm, after the Luau dinner. No dinner ticket is needed for this gathering.
- Morning meditation: guided sessions before the first presentation; check the experiential program for details.
- Participatory art: visual and interactive pieces, including works from Burning Man traditions. Contact the organizers before bringing an installation.
Bring an instrument, a little curiosity or simply yourself. The hangout page describes these informal gatherings as open, with no registration required; conference sessions have their own access requirements.
In our reading, the atmosphere has a psychedelic festival sensibility. The official page does not advertise psychedelic substances or ceremonies.
As the journey unfolds
New dated entries will appear here when notes and reviews are ready. Expect selected session reflections, questions to follow up and links to original research. Updates will be occasional, without a continuous live feed.
Reading the journal
Personal reflections describe experience. Speaker claims are attributed. Research findings link to their source and retain their limitations. A conference presentation alone does not settle an open question.
Conference times, when included, use San Diego local time. Consult the official program for changes.
