This book deals directly with issues of consciousness within works of postcolonial and diasporic writers. It discusses fiction, autobiography and theory to re-formulate a "writing of consciousness", addressing contemporary cultural theory related to a wide range of dynamic writers and ground-breaking novels. A critical analysis of literature contextualises consciousness (understood here as the source of language and human creativity), and explores ways in which consciousness is involved in the creative process. Tackling the controversial nature of consciousness itself, the book argues that consciousness must be understood in its philosophical and social contexts. The idea of relocating consciousness calls for a new aesthetics and ethics of living in the diasporic world where we are all to some extent "migrant". The book explores notions of consciousness as alternative narrative structures to society, while expanding contemporary postcolonial theory beyond the limited dimension of power-based-on-violence to a more visionary exploration of experience based on consciousness as unity-in-diversity. Themes explored include sacred experience as empowerment; trauma, terror and the impact of consciousness; cosmopolitanism and globalisation; and the literature of human survival. Written in a lively and accessible manner the book will appeal to all readers who enjoy being on the cutting-edge of contemporary world literature.

The close relationship between motion (bodily movement) and emotion (feelings) is not an etymological coincidence. While moving ourselves, we move others; in observing others move we are moved ourselves. The fundamentally interpersonal nature of mind and language has recently received due attention, but the key role of (e)motion in this context has remained something of a blind spot. The present book rectifies this gap by gathering contributions from leading philosophers, psychologists and linguists working in the area. Framed by an introducing prologue and a summarizing epilogue (written by Colwyn Trevarthen, who brought the phenomenological notion of intersubjectivity to a wider audience some 30 years ago) the volume elaborates a dynamical, active view of emotion, along with an affect-laden view of motion and explores their significance for consciousness, intersubjectivity, and language. As such, it contributes to the emerging interdisciplinary field of mind science, transcending hitherto dominant computationalist and cognitivist approaches.

Peter Dennis is a hypnotist and has done many past life regressions with his clients. A few years ago, some of Peter's clients, while visiting past lives, started reporting lives on other planets. This prompted Peter to pursue this further and, in so doing, a number of clients began to channel. After five women began Channeling, Peter wrote this book detailing some of the concerns, inhibitions and fears that these women dealt with as they pursued this adventure. After discovering that hypnosis could be a very effective route to Channeling, Peter's hypnosis practice is now mainly focused on helping people to become Channelers. Peter is not a Channeler but is referred to as a Channeling Facilitator as he helps people to make a Channeling connection, strengthen that connection and, if the client wishes, take that talent to the public. More about this can be seen on Peter's website at: peterhdennis.com. Channeling takes many forms. When we get ideas or inspirations, chances are that we are Channeling. Intuitive flashes can be Channeling. Authors, songwriters, composers, inspired speakers all have moments of Channeling. This book is not about these more subtle forms of Channeling but, rather, it's about what might be called Conscious Channeling or Overt Channeling and, sometimes, Trance Channeling. What then is Channeling? As you may know, our scientists have been telling us that everything, at the sub-atomic level, is composed of a vibrating energy and that everything and everyone has his/her/its own, unique rate of vibration. So, for Channeling to work, the Channeler has to raise his or her vibration and the sender has to lower its vibration so that a match can be made and a connection established. Once that connection is established, the sender sends a message telepathically and the receiver or Channeler uses his or her brain, voice box, vocal cords and perhaps some other things to receive and vocalize that information. Like a lot of things in our lives these days, we don't have to fully understand how something works to benefit from using it, and Channeling is much the same. We don't have to understand the Physics of Channeling in order to figure out if the content of the channeled messages works for us or not. This book is also an introduction to Spirituality and it offers many messages and explains many metaphysical concepts. It is the Author's hope that you will find that these messages expand your thinking, raise a number of new questions and bring you more peace.

In this collection of essays, experts in the field of consciousness research shed light on the intricate relationship between conscious and unconscious states of mind. Advancing the debate on consciousness research, this book puts centre stage the topic of commonalities and differences between conscious and unconscious contents of the mind. The collection of cutting-edge chapters offers a breadth of research perspectives, with some arguing that unconscious states have been unjustly overlooked and deserve recognition for their richness and wide scope. Others contend that significant differences between conscious and unconscious states persist, highlighting the importance of their distinct characteristics. Explorations into the nature of the transition from unconscious to conscious mind further complicate the picture, with some authors questioning whether a sharp divide between unconscious and conscious states truly exists. Delving into ontological, epistemological, and methodological issues, this thought-provoking text challenges established paradigms and paves the way for a reimagining of consciousness research. It does so in an understandable and accessible way, making this a perfect companion for both experts and students of philosophy, psychology, and related fields.

Every few thousand years, our human culture experiences a massive evolutionary transformation. In the next few years, our consciousness will change very rapidly and move us beyond anything we can presently imagine. This change of consciousness is happening naturally to each of us now, and it will affect every aspect of how we think, how we live, and how we love. We are a culture in search of its spirit, and this change of consciousness is evolutionarily next for humankind on this planet. When the awareness opens, one may search many avenues and attractions for truth and enlightenment and find the search lacking in result. The next step may be the path of Self-discovery. But the direction on this path will not be given to us by a great teacher who comes down from the mountaintop with answers cast in stone, but rather by lots of little great teachers who could be called pathfinders. And to move into this new consciousness, we will transform the mind and the way it works with new mental skills and mental technology. Our success is inevitable. The ease or difficulty with which we achieve this success is still in formation. We will survive the transition physically. The question is whether we will survive psychologically. Psychological survival in this transition depends on only one thing: Developing the ability and inner discipline to completely, instantaneously, unquestioningly and continuously adapt to change.

Can you imagine a world where there is no sickness, no pain, no hospitals, no doctors, no medicine required? A new level of understanding, awareness, and evolution for mankind is underway, and the collective consciousness of this planet is rising into a higher vibration of collective awareness. This is not the end but just the beginning of many fantastic things that we are going to see and experience, and one of these transformations is that man will move beyond sickness. We will begin to access our previously hidden innate abilities, learning new ways of communicating with each other. Through spending more than thirty years practicing meditation and working as a professional hypnotherapist in Time Line Past and Future Regression Therapy, I have been able to raise my conscious awareness to higher levels and receive glimpses ahead of time of what is in store for humankind, and I can tell you that what lies ahead for us is very exciting. This is a book of tools for assisting people who would like to raise their vibration-frequency and consciousness to higher levels so that they can begin to align with the new consciousness now available to us and move into new levels of awareness, which will benefit health, wealth, relationships, and so much more. Author Review Aldo, I truly enjoyed reading your book, which was inspiring and opened my mind to consider many different angles towards life. I have also applied some of the tools you suggested in this book to my own business, and it has helped me improve the efficiency and revenue of my business. Thank you for sharing this important, eye-opening knowledge and wisdom with us. Good luck with it . . . Julian Ray Author of Real Man

In this anthology of its groundbreaking articles, Science News brings us a riveting look at the mystery of human consciousness. Despite advances in neuroscience that have allowed us to peer into the inner workings of the brain, a deeper understanding of the mind remains elusive. From early attempts to pinpoint the exact location of consciousness to today’s ongoing explorations of communications between nerve cells, scientists have wrestled with how to define such a nebulous concept. The articles in this book, curated from the extensive Science News archive, explore the ways science attempts to explain consciousness. Studies of perception, both normal and altered, contribute to our understanding, and research on nonhuman consciousness offer insights and depth. The collection leaves us with profound and poignant questions: Is the concept of conscious decision-making an illusion? And do humans truly possess free will? Since 1921, Society for Science & the Public has facilitated global understanding of important scientific discoveries and issues. Since the first publication of the Science News-Letter in 1922, they have grown their audience to millions of readers each year. Now, Science News exposes new readers to thrilling concepts and innovative theories in Consciousness.

With recent advances in artificial intelligence and neuroscience, the nature of consciousness and the relation between mind and brain have become the most hotly debated topics in philosophy. Yet agreement looks farther away than ever.Ellis and Newton explain and argue for a bold new approach, called enactivism, showing how it cuts through various difficulties which have stumped previous theories. At first glance, enactivism itself seems open to fatal objections, but the authors demonstrate in detail that these objections disappear on closer examination.How the Mind Uses the Brain represents a sharp break with the tradition which sees consciousness as the final step in a chain of causes and effects, with information processing going on in the intervening steps. This tradition has reduced consciousness to an appendage. According to Ellis and Newton, consciousness and emotions are central aspects of the organisms ongoing self-organizational activity, driving information processing rather than merely responding to it.

Is there a theory that explains the essence of consciousness? Or is consciousness itself just an illusion? The 'last great mystery of science', consciousness is a topic that was banned from serious research for most of the last century, but is now an area of increasing popular interest, as well as a rapidly expanding area of study for students of psychology, philosophy and neuroscience. This ground-breaking textbook by best-selling author Susan Blackmore was the first of its kind to bring together all the major theories of consciousness studies, from those based on neuroscience to those based on quantum theory or Eastern philosophy. The book examines topics such as how subjective experiences arise from objective brain processes, the basic neuroscience of consciousness, altered states of consciousness, out of body and near death experiences and the effects of drugs, dreams and meditation. It also explores the nature of self, the possibility of artificial consciousness in robots, and the question of whether animals are conscious. The new edition has been fully revised to include the latest developments in neuroscience, brain scanning techniques, and artificial consciousness and robotics. The new website includes self-assessment exercises, advanced further reading, flashcards and MCQs. For all those intrigued by what it means to be, to exist, this book could radically transform your understanding of your own consciousness.
