I agree with Skyfloating's request.

I would love to see a new forum under 'Mysterious Subjects.'

Topics of Consciousness and Metaphysics do not belong in the Paranormal Forum. I guess Consciousness Studies could even go under Science Topics.

Can we have a vote for a new forum? I'm sure we'd get more hits than Paranormal if this was started...

I think it would be beneficial to have a first hand experience forum, whereas Paranormal is a very broad topic...

'Experiences in Consciousness' or something like that.

No more freakin' stars.
Please.
I'm pretty sure that we've established that it does more harm than good (it allows for members of cliques to pat each other on the back so to speak).

Other than that, I'm still pretty happy up here.

Biggie Smalls had a good idea about starting a new consciousness forum.

In regard to that, there was some discussion as to how it should be titled.

Originally posted by Skyfloating
I resist the term "Studies" because we already have a research forum entitled "Consciousness Studies".

I resist the term "Higher" because it causes an unnecessary duality/split to "lower". (See my signature).

There are crude forms of consciousness within fish, insects, reptiles, and even bacteria. None of which are worth the effort in aspiring towards.

Hence the need to ascribe the word higher to the forum title of Higher Consciousness.

Otherwise, research into consciousness is completely open-ended, relative, goal-less, and without the noble purpose of achieving long-term happiness and contentment from any acquired expanded awareness.
