Consciousness
A follow up conference to last year's Conference on First-Person   Methodologies will be held this spring, again at Ratna Ling. We are looking at holding a third conference in the United Kingdom in 2008. As of December, participants from four countries are planning to attend. Jack Petranker, Urban Kordes and Mattej Cernigoj are working toward establishing an online forum for   reports on first-person inquiry. The forum will be held on CCI's   website.  

Time, Space, and Knowledge  
The third section of the nine-month online course on the Time-Space-Knowledge vision starts in late March; the retreat for the program will be held July 8-14. For next year, CCI is planning on offering three ten-week TSK programs online, each independent of the others. To learn more, click here.
