Abstract

Research has found that study and reading groups can facilitate the learning process with the discussion and debate of ideas through diverse perspectives and the sharing of experiences. An international book club adds a cultural and linguistic layer to the process, while focusing on
a conscientiological book can further expand the learning experience to a multidimensional one. This is important to researchers, students of conscientiology and anyone interested in dedicating themselves to self-learning, self-research, parapsychism and evolutionary tasks.  The aim of this article is to present a Book Club project that was conducted by volunteers of the Pre-Conscientiocentric Institution (Pre-CI) Interassistantial Services for the Internationalization of Conscientiology (ISIC), including the history and planning of the Book Club, the structure and format of the readings and group meetings, the benefits and challenges encountered and the perceptions and paraperceptions experienced by the participants during the reading process, and a questionnaire to collect feedback about the project that was sent to participants in order to assess it. The article concludes with the authors' analyses of the evolutionary advantages of participating in a conscientiological book club, the participants’ feedback, and recommendations for the next phases of the project or for other similar projects.
