Curated reading paths through the [[Psionics]] cluster, organised by reader background. Each path is ordered: read top to bottom. Side-branches are linked but optional.

If you are not sure which path is yours, read the [[Psionics_Primer]] first; it ends with a "by interest" table that may be enough.

== Path 1 — Curious Public ==

You have a high-school science background, no calculus, and want to understand "what is this and is it real?".

# [[Psionics_Primer]] — the two-page tour.
# [[What_is_the_Psi_Field]] — the ψ field in everyday language.
# [[Why_Does_Physics_Need_Extra_Dimensions]] — the [[Kaluza-Klein_Unification|Kaluza–Klein]] motivation without indices.
# [[Famous_Experiments]] — five most-cited experiments in plain English.
# [[History_of_Psionics_Research]] — narrative history.
# [[Open_Questions_in_Psionics]] — what is still unknown.
# [[Psionics_FAQ]] — the common questions answered.

Side-branches:

* For the human story behind the science → [[Salvatore_Cezar_Pais]], [[Hal_Puthoff]], [[Karl_Pribram]], [[Stuart_Hameroff]].
* For the cosmological context → [[Schumann_Resonance]], [[Space_Weather]].

== Path 2 — Esoteric / Meditation Practitioner ==

You have years of practice in meditation, energy work, qigong, kundalini, Reiki, ceremonial magic, or related traditions, and want to know how that practice maps to ψ-field physics.

# [[Psionics_Primer]] — context and frame.
# [[Map_of_Traditions]] — how Prana / Qi / Mana / Od / Orgone / Pneuma fit into the ψ ontology.
# [[Chakras_as_Resonant_Modes]] — standing-wave structures in the body-localised ψ field.
# [[Meditation_as_Coherence_Engineering]] — what trained attention is doing in the equations.
# [[Practice_to_Theory_Translation_Table]] — term-by-term correspondence.
# [[Psi_Energy_Density_Scalar_Field]] (now a redirect to [[Psi_Field]]) — what "energy" means in the formalism.

Side-branches:

* For the body-electric layer → [[Bioelectromagnetism]], [[Biophotons]].
* For group-ritual amplification → see [[Psionics]] §"Collective Amplification & Resonance" and [[Effective_Field_Theory_of_Consciousness]].

== Path 3 — Undergraduate / Graduate Physics ==

You have calculus, intro EM, intro QM, ideally a year of GR or QFT. You want to see the canonical equations and the derivation chain.

# [[Psionics_Primer]] — skim for the frame.
# [[Psionics]] — the canonical equation page.
# [[5D_Action_Principle]] — the parent action and its full derivation.
# [[Symbol_Glossary]] — every symbol with units and conventions.
# [[Sanity_Check_Limits]] — recovery of known physics in the appropriate limits.
# [[Modified_Einstein_Equations_with_Psi]] — how ψ couples to spacetime curvature.
# [[Soliton_Solutions_of_Psi_Field]] — non-perturbative solutions; the rigorous basis for stable "thought-forms".
# [[Effective_Field_Theory_of_Consciousness]] — symmetry breaking on the consciousness sector.
# [[Quantization_of_the_Psi_Field]] — Fock space, propagator, scattering.
# [[Renormalization_of_Psi_Theory]] — UV completion concerns.

== How the paths interlock ==

Every path passes through the trunk pages: [[Psionics]], [[Psi_Field]], [[5D_Action_Principle]], [[Symbol_Glossary]]. The remaining pages branch outward by topic. The full dependency graph is rendered at [[:File:Psionics_dependency_dag.png]] and specified in the prerequisite-chain documentation.
