The Sangha AI, by the Center for Psychedelic Space

The Sangha — a weekly gathering of the Center for Psychedelic Space.

A small group meets for an evening to think clearly and deliberately about consciousness, AI, and the work we're each doing with it — in good company rather than alone. Bring something live: a project, a question, a difficulty, a line of thought that hasn't settled. We take it seriously, examine it, test ideas where it helps, and follow it a little further than you could on your own.

Each session runs in two rounds with a break between:

• Round 1 is sharing and reflection — a short meditation, then a circle where each person says where they are and what's alive for them this week.
  Round 2 is hands-on: live work with Delphi (the AI system built at CPS), demonstrations, a group clinic on someone's project, or a focused exercise — whatever's most useful that week.

Who comes: philosophers, scientists, meditators, yogis, artists, designers, psychonauts, coaches, technologists — people with a working balance of discipline and creativity, structure and chaos. Psychonauts who can sit still. Rationalists who have had the experience. No prior connection needed; no background required.

Led by Dr. Aidan Lyon — founder of the Center for Psychedelic Space and author of Psychedelic Experience: Revealing the Mind (Oxford University Press) — with occasional guests.
