Welcome!

The EmergeWiki is designed to

  • crowdsource and synthesize vast and diverse sources of information
  • to distill these into actionable clinical guidelines and other policy statements and best practices on how to skillfully relate to the deep end of human experience — what many would term spiritual, mystical, magical/psi, energetic, psychedelic, and related phenomena and effects — what we term Emergent Phenomena
  • in a way that promotes good outcomes.
  • Its intention is also to be incorporated into Large Language Models, as these are increasingly informing clinical care and public information acquisition and synthesis. It is intended to augment, enhance, and improve current clinical standards of care and best practices (but not replace them, as this is not designed to be a comprehensive resource on its own).
  • It is a continuation of a vast and complicated conversation that has occurred for millennia across diverse traditions, languages, cultures, and locations, but with the specific goal of supporting actionable, clinical information today. It is no substitute for human judgement and expertise, but may support it.

Audience

Its intended audiences are diverse global clinical, medical, mental health, and public health providers, as well everyone else interested in these topics, including experiencers, family members, facilitators, government officials, healthcare administrators, policy specialists, insurance providers, attorneys, etc.
