As Above, So Below: 2022 International Forum on Consciousness Explores How Expansive Macro�Micro View Can Transform Awareness of Self

Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb to keynote; Public invited to join thought leaders, spiritual leaders and researchers in Madison, WI September 29-30

MADISON, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#awakening–Thought leaders, spiritual leaders, healers and researchers, including Avi Loeb, the Harvard astrophysicist in search of extraterrestrial life, and Rosalind Watts, named among the 50 Most Influential People in Psychedelics, will gather in Madison, WI on September 29-30 for the 2022 International Forum on Consciousness. This year�s forum “As Above, So Below” explores how expanded understanding of both the universe and micro unseen worlds can transform awareness of self amid time, space, matter and energy. The Forum brings together experts, practitioners and the interested public for in-depth presentations, immersive experiences, live music and time for connection and dialogue with presenters and attendees.


Key questions addressed will include:

  • How is our perception of self, others, the environment, and the universe influenced by our current concept of time and space, as well as by our cultural, historical, scientific and religious frameworks?
  • How are we transformed by encounters that are beyond our current understanding of human embodiment, intellectual framework and scientific explanation?
  • What are the current limitations of knowledge and technology which impede the conceptualization of what might be considered intelligent life outside our solar system?

Each presenter and panel will consider diverse perspectives on truth and reality, experiencing transdisciplinary views with different approaches to accessing states of consciousness.
