What a wonderful and generous response. Thank you!
For my part, although I have spent a lifetime exploring, studying, and experiencing the inner world of transformative and transcendental being, I have not encountered any treatment of dreams that acknowledges or deals with the incredible multitude of dream types. That is, from personal experience, I know there are various forms of symbolic dreams, there are vivid and lucid dreams with varying degrees of awareness and capacity for manipulating dream events, and also out-of-body experiences that sometimes include this world and sometimes not.
That lack of access to such extensive treatment, however, may be due mostly to my disappointment with the sources found to date, including, I’m afraid, Jung's Man and His Symbols, which was deep but not expansive or always accessible enough for me.
I look forward to perusing your suggestions and choosing one or more to investigate more deeply. Dreams are by their very nature indicative of great significance in our lives, and early attempts to analyze mine have been fruitful but not nearly as incisive as I sense they should be. Your mention of The International Association of Dreamwork was particularly intriguing.
Thank you for taking the time to do this.
And just an aside: I feel I should apologize for the formality of writing in this note. I can’t help it. It’s how I think and communicate when dealing with this level of being. Otherwise, I sound much more human.
