INTRODUCTION

Even meditation doesn’t operate from deep sleep—only its outer limits, by and large. After the evidence I’m seeing, I’m resolute in the knowledge that all negative mind stuff must come out, or be contained within higher consciousness way. Not driving us crazily or dangerously from within.

Dreams have always been a source of mystery and interest. They’ve also been associated with a lot of superstitious nonsense and mumbo jumbo. Interpretations of their meanings, over centuries, have been so diverse, it’s no wonder that only now are we beginning to psychologically, as well as parapsychologically, make sense of them. Jung and others paved the way historically, so that with hindsight we could dimly analyse but a few dreams, too late, after they’d happened. Now we can use in-home high tech. to monitor them psychotherapeutically, and act in them right in the moment they occur. It could be telepathy, prophecy, clairvoyance, astral travel etc., we’re looking for in our dream states (dealt briefly with herein, yet more specifically in sister book to this). Empoweringly here, we learn to be our own ‘in-dream therapist’, transforming self hang-ups.

Why should our dark dreams and nightmares haunt us any longer, or even lighter ones puzzle us? They can be understood, questioned, put right, reasoned with, in all their seeming un-reason.

High tech. goggles (lightweight, battery powered) worn as we rest and sleep, detect rapid eye movements (REMs), then signal us, via flashing lights, we’re lucid dreaming. A magic time for ‘doctoring’! Essential REM dreaming time only occurs for a few minutes each hour and a half. Non-REM, so called dreamless sleep, seems more will-o’-the-wisp; understood more by psychic adepts (see ‘Meditating The Paranormal’ also ‘via in-home high tech.’; and perhaps my next book, more specifically on dream state astral travel).

Only part of us wakes up to potentially doctor, our ‘living dreams’ (so real we often doubt we’re asleep). Without too much awakening we could also arrange voice activated tape recordings for later, further enlightening. However, the challenge for therapeutic doctoring, progress and growth from our dreams, can be very much noted. Some parts are fantasy and entertainment of course and better than the ‘movies’! Why waste that huge part of our lives usually lost in them? The book’s case histories, psychologically teach and easily guide one in methods of marvellous ‘in-dream work’, sometimes without high tech. Simple time switches and/or auto suggestion can substitute. No one is now denied therapeutic and other awareness in 21st Century dreaming.

Superstition, regarding dreams, still abounds, as already remarked, but the book will go over the latest researches in dream laboratories and elsewhere. Not much has been done on dream therapy and indeed this book is something of a first, especially where high tech. is utilised.

Some scholarly research has been done on dream telepathy and out of the body experiences (OOBEs or OBEs, so abbreviated), remote viewing, also healing, etc. These will be referred to in the various chapters (see list) but come more under the headings of Parapsychology and Transpersonal Psychology, not strictly Psychotherapy. Meditational and Altered States of Consciousness Movements and Practices, provide of course, the grassroots material for these relatively new Para or Trans Psychologies. Psychotherapy (in dreams) will remain the central theme of this book but the other disciplines will be shown to merge with it, in overview—holistically. All is interfacing splendidly, as we begin our new century.

I (the author) have written three books already across the whole psychospiritual spectrum (see bibliography), the first being more autobiographical, stretching back decades (‘Ghosts, ESP & Psychology, My True Life Experiences UK, NZ, & Australia’). It concerned my years in Psychic Research (the old term for Parapsychology), bridging to and with Psychotherapy. Some of this was group therapy, notably Psychodrama, at which I directed. However, I’d begun as a hands on Psychic Healer years before, and later tried Hypnotherapy, noting that my energies quickly put people into soothed, relaxed, altered states of consciousness. I’d been a natural enough meditator myself, before the advent of high tech., which fortunately I did not need, to become that healer and also a clairvoyant etc.

It was inevitable that when high tech. came along to assist people in their meditative growth work, I would open up from that first book of mine and write the next two. I’d not only done pre-high tech. development work on myself psychotherapeutically, but I’d psychically developed myself also. Albeit, I’d used the natural, slower ways. Respectively, these usually took lifetimes in therapies, training groups, ashrams, retreats, etc. Anyway, with fast track high tech., I could then treat myself as a guinea pig and meditate and develop further, both therapeutically and paranormally. I wasn’t the perfect psychic, so allowed room for growth there and, even after years of psychological growth, I had some hang ups left (a wardrobe full, judging by my upset formative years!).

‘Self Help Psychotherapy’ (Meditatively via High Tech.) and ‘Meditating The Paranormal’(via in-home High Tech.) just had to be those ultimate two books—or so I thought. But no! I still wasn’t psychically developed as far as I would want to go. That I knew. Neither was all my psychological stuff shifted, for fearful and bizarre things still hung about in my dreams. I researched yet again. Was I to finally get progressed enough with continuing high tech. meditation techniques? Or, was there something swifter in this more aware dream monitoring, and transformation of ones nature thereby, psychotherapeutically? There would be the other interesting spin-offs in there too; those telepathic and astral, transpersonal and parapsychological categories. All adds up or leads to eventual enlightening and transcendence, if we follow the holistic pattern. Each book opens up more, and I feel there might yet be an extra couple I’ll have to undertake. This to do justice to the continuum or spectrum. However, justice first to ‘Dreamology & Doctoring Your Dreams’.

As you’ll see, dear reader, I’ll first present what I know and have experienced, only with natural development overall. Then I’ll show what I and others have achieved in rapid time frame meditation, with high tech. (to quickly approach becoming partially transcended to the same degree as some lifetime served Monks!).

Following this, come with me on a journey I know not where, dream doctoring, with high tech. devices as yet untried by me. As a Psychospiritual Practitioner of long standing I should be able to help you avoid scary but worthwhile mistakes I might make, even with my insights. Also, I might be able to bring an excitement to your adventure and help along an abiding peace, with bliss for your days thereafter.

CHAPTER I

What are the dream states?

Long term meditators (as I show in my other books) can a) get those cycles/ states down considerably, and blend them into other brain wave patterns, aiding meditational doctoring of what might otherwise come up in dreams; similarly—b) develop their paranormality (use of psychic or spiritual powers/ gifts).

I must confess that when I took up each psychospiritual interest or discipline, in and of the various stages in my life, I thought they were the be all and end all of everything. As already indicated in my introduction, a holism or overview is replacing their various facets. At the end of my fuller, first book, I included brochure copies of mine, for they indicate the wide ranges of the holistic field I refer to, and which readers might profit by. I won’t reprint them here because as a self-publisher I can only afford to have printed a few books at a time. That is until I can complete writing over this spectrum, and find time to seek out a publishing company to take over the business end for me. Meanwhile I’m mindful that I need to keep size and therefore the cost of the book down.

Dreams and their importance had never really concerned me until this stage of my life, at which I’m writing. The listing of the previous psychospiritual facets I’ve experienced and made myself guinea pig or research apprentice to, is long. It’s to be recommended for, believe me, the various aspects are good proving ground for later dream work: Firstly, because of my later proven childhood clairvoyant visions—often prophetic, I became increasingly interested in what’s now known as Parapsychology. However, in my early days, that term did not exist and I was too young even to understand, or know it by, the then name of Psychic or Psychical Research. Whatever the fashionable name, the inherent phenomena can make itself known in dreams, if that be the theme concentrated on. I’ve shown how to focus on this and other aspects, throughout my other books chapters; more briefly here.

Grassroots Spiritualist Churches were where one could find the phenomena alluded to above, in my day (and still can), if one does not become more academic in approach. Yet it’s still rare to get diplomas or degrees in Parapsychology and the Transpersonal Psychology already mentioned and to which I’ll return. As with Hypnotism and the dream subject generally, a lot of mumbo jumbo and stigma had been applied with all these associated disciplines. Nowadays, in an age reaching beyond relativity, quantum physics, black holes, curved spacetime, the Hubble constant, quarks, butterfly effects, chaos theory, uncertainty principles and the like, we’re not so obstinately disbelieving as to what feeds the grassroots. They, that in turn feed the sciences. Where else could the sciences start? Firstly, they have need to drink from the existing fountains of natural life experience, before they go to theorising and trying to quantify what drinking, thirst, and the nature and motions of water are!

Incidentally, psychic phenomena, is known in Parapsychology by the neutral term Psi. This whether it be that which seems to heal people, transmit knowledge of distant events or affect them, or physical matter, time etc. (with only human psychic intervention; outside of other known sciences). The book will investigate all briefly, as it networks or links with what I shall now dub ‘Dreamology’ (probably dubbed so for the first time anywhere in the literature or elsewhere).

So! In
