Non-dual consciousness teachers offer phenomenological methods prior to conceptual theory.

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Most theories of consciousness are already substrate-neutral; neurocentric readings are convention, not content commitment.claim0.799
• Mainstream theories of consciousness are already substrate-neutral at the primitive level.claim0.787
• Consciousness remains without an agreed scientific characterization, without a validated theory connecting mechanism to experience, and without criteria for establishing its presence or absence in any systemclaim0.778
  CIMC's characterization of the current state of the field motivating its research program
• The science of consciousness should remain open to the possibility of minds in unconventional embodiments.hypothesis0.777
  Normative conclusion and forward-looking hypothesis based on theoretical and empirical evidence reviewed.
• Because no one theory of consciousness is currently dominant, assessments of AI systems should draw on multiple theories and treat their conditions as indicators rather than definitive criteria.claim0.769
  Justifies the multi-theory indicator approach rather than committing to a single theory
• The science of consciousness should remain open to minds in unconventional embodiments.claim0.768
  The normative conclusion of the paper, urging the field to not prematurely exclude non-brain substrates.
• Conceptual priming with consciousness ideation is insufficient to produce the effects of self-referential processing, demonstrating the effect is tied to computational regime rather than semantic contentclaim0.766
  Controls ruling out semantic association as explanation for experimental results
• The conceptual distinctions between mind and body are artificial, and developmental biology and behavioral science should be unified.claim0.764
  Calls for consilience across disciplines.
