    Science and Consciousness in Partnership with Wyrd Education

    Extraterrestrial Studies in Partnership with TransDimensional Mapping

    Partners

    TransDimensional Mapping™

    TransDimensional Mapping™ (TDM) is a groundbreaking method of remote viewing developed by Birdie Jaworski after decades of research, practice, and innovation. TDM builds on Birdie’s foundational work with methods inspired by the U.S. government’s Stargate Program and takes remote viewing to an entirely new level. At its core, TDM employs dynamic, large-scale “maps” to organize and explore data, enabling practitioners to explore any target experience — across time, space, or concept — with precision and clarity.

    Broughton Sanctuary

    The School of Science and Consciousness partners with Broughton Sanctuary in the UK as a campus for events and Wyrd Experience, where you can find the equipment and library of the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research lab on loan from International Consciousness Research Laboratories (ICRL).

    Wyrd Education

    Wyrd Education works with Wyrd Experience where you can experience the equipment and library from the PEAR lab on loan from ICRL since 2020, based at the Broughton Sanctuary in Yorkshire, UK.  Wyrd Education focuses on providing learning experiences that remind us of the nature of our interconnectedness.

    Dr Vasileios Basios

    Senior researcher in the Physics of Complex Systems at the University of Brussels, specialises in self-organisation and emergence in complex matter, with a background in working with Nobel laureate Ilya Prigogine’s team at the Solvay Institutes. 
    He delves into the history of scientific ideas and is passionate about a qualitative shift in science, challenging the dominant materialistic-reductionist worldview. Vasileios is an advocate of self-reflection in scientific practice. He aims to contribute insights from the science of complex systems, as they offer essential transformative potential. His goal is to develop a resilient network of individuals, groups and organisations to advance this transformative scientific paradigm. As a member of the steering team of the Galileo Commission, he initiated its working group activities and was the first to establish the so-called “oREgano” working group (with the help of Brenda Dunne, Roger Nelson, Jeff Dunne and Wolfhardt Janu). He is a board member of the ICRL, currently co-chairs the Scientific and Medical Network, and is part of the newly formed Wyrd Research team.

    Bernard Carr

    Bernard Carr is Emeritus Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at Queen Mary University of London. For his PhD he studied the first second of the universe with Stephen Hawking at Cambridge University and Caltech. He then held Research Fellowships at Trinity College and the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge before moving to Queen Mary in 1985. He has also held Visiting Professorships at various institutes in America, Canada and Japan. His professional area of research is cosmology and astrophysics and includes such topics as the early universe, black holes, dark matter and the anthropic principle. He is the author of around 300 papers and the books Universe or Multiverse? and Quantum Black Holes. He is very interested in the role of consciousness, regarding this as a fundamental rather than incidental feature of the Universe, and he is developing a new physical paradigm, which accommodates normal, paranormal and mystical experiences. He also has a long-standing interest in the relationship between science and religion and views psychical research as forming a bridge between them. He is President of the Scientific and Medical Network and a former President of the Society for Psychical Research.

    Paula Petry

    Paula holds a doctoral degree in Teaching and Learning from the University of Miami. After a long career at its medical school in the department of pediatrics, she resigned feeling there was a better way. The void gave way to the most improbable transformative healing. She traveled and studied with experts on the Akashic Records, shamanic energy medicine, and sound healing modalities. Her 2020 memoir, A Mother’s Courage to Awaken, Hope and Inspiration from My Daughter’s Journey in the AfterLife, helps others live courageous inner lives. Paula is a public speaker, has a private practice, and facilitates a weekly Power of 8 healing group. Her passion for helping today’s struggling youth has resulted in her curriculum, Destiny Code, teaching the precepts found in indigenous wisdom through the lens of science. She works in several capacities with Ubiquity University, its youth initiative, Humanity Rising guest, and teaches the course, The Power of Regenerative Grief.

    Karen Darke

    Karen could be described as a modern-day ‘Alchemist’: a keynote speaker, learning & development specialist turned mindset- heartset coach, ‘explorer in residence’ with the Scottish Royal Geographical Society, athlete, author and leader of transformational journeys. Karen’s purpose is about helping individuals and organisations ‘Find Inner Gold’: turning challenge into opportunity, turning ‘mud’ into ‘gold’. Karen started out as a geologist researching gold in the Bolivian Andes, but a life-changing accident that left her paralysed led her away from being a ‘rock-doctor’ to winning Paralympic gold in the sport of Paralympic hand-cycling in Rio 2016. It was the 79th medal for Britain, and 79 being the elemental number for Gold led to Karen creating Quest 79. The project has Karen hand-cycling 7 continents in 9 iconic rides, raising funds for charities and encouraging many people to step out of their comfort zones and discover passion, purpose, strength and other aspects of their ‘inner gold’.

    She is a multiple Guinness World Record holder for a 2018 landspeed arm-power handbike record, and a 2022-23 crossing to create the ‘Pole of Possibility’ in Antarctica, a project to inspire possibility thinking and what can be enabled with positive mindset, collaboration, connection and technology. From skiing across icecaps to kayak journeys at extreme latitudes and hand-cycle treks in the world’s biggest mountain ranges, Karen is a passionate advocate for the value of nature and the power of an ‘adventure mindset’ for everyday life. These experiences combined with unique studies of mind, resilience and performance have led to Karen helping people spiral into positivity and possibility, embracing all of life’s experiences as opportunities to learn and grow. Karen has extensively studied what goes on ‘inside’: the power of the mind and language to positively impact emotions; improving presence, performance and wellbeing.

    HH Khedrupchen Rinpoche

    Monla Khedrup Rinpoche (also referred to as Khedrupchen Rinpoche) was born in 1990 in Eastern Bhutan. He was recognized and enthroned as the fifth reincarnation of Kyabgon Monla Khedrup Jigme Kundrol, a renowned scholar and practitioner from Bhutan who was one of the main students of Jigme Lingpa, a highly revered and realized teacher of eighteenth century Tibet.

    Rinpoche started his formal monastic education from the age of thirteen in Phagchok Monastery in Eastern Bhutan under the guidance of Lama Kunzang Namdrol. In 2006, he joined Mindrolling College in India for nine years of advanced Buddhist studies in sutras and tantras where he graduated in 2015 with an acharya degree (equivalent to a Ph.D.). Upon completion he was appointed teaching faculty at Mindrolling, a great honor, and taught there for three years. He has studied directly under many eminent Buddhist teachers across various sects of Tibetan Buddhism. His main teachers are the late His Holiness the Fourth Dodrupchen Rinpoche, Dzongsar Jamyang Khyenste Rinpoche, Dza Jigme Namgyal, Namkhai Nyingpo Rinpoche, Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche and Khenchen Katayana. He has also completed several years of intensive short and long-term meditation retreats.

    Rinpoche is Founder and President of Khedrup Foundation, a non-profit religious organization registered in Bhutan, Supreme Head of Rephel Mebar Lhakhang, a 1,200-year old temple of great historical significant in Trongsa, Central Bhutan, and Founder and Spiritual Director of Sangchen Ogyen Tsuklag Monastery in Trongsa, Central Bhutan and Phajo Gonpa Gomde, a yogi retreat center, in Samdrup Jongkhar, Eastern Bhutan.

    Rinpoche’s activities often consist of putting wisdom and compassion into social action. In 2016, he founded Siddhartha’s Wisdom Club to introduce Buddhist wisdom and values for youth, helping them live in harmony with their inner and outer nature, particularly connecting inner well-being with environmental preservation. In 2017, he founded the Ami-Deva Association for elder citizens to help create a community of connection and belonging where they can deeply practice meditation for inner well-being. Additionally, Rinpoche is involved in numerous humanitarian activities across the country in a range of areas.

    Rinpoche travels around the world teaching and collaborating with scholars and practitioners in universities, institutes, and centers in order to innovate new skillful-means for teaching Buddha-Dharma in a modern context and to continue the lineages of Buddhism for future generations.
