Six Degrees of Separation -or- The Dream Vision Principle of Hope

I am starting a Facebook page, that will provide a "dream vision" feature, called "Fieldnotes of a Dream Researcher: 1001 Nights in the Global Village". This feature is intended to act much like the 1001 Arabian Nights Tales, reflecting the ongoing dark nightmaric dream patterns of hatred, prejudice, violence, fear and social problems that cause so much destructiveness and havoc on our planet everyday. Although fictional, 1001 Nights turned and transformed hatred into love and peace. As long as our nightly dreams are filled with stories of hatred, prejudice and violence, peace and love will never be within our reach.  In the next 1001 Nights, I intend to provide you the reader with what is scientifically known as the grand unified theory of the philosophy of nature and culture, as seen through the social optics of our collective dream work patterns.

You can follow 1001 Nights at facebook and Twitter (1001 dream quotes). At the end of this introduction, you can read the ongoing posts.

Via the internet, we are increasingly being shown that we are all interconnected on our planet. The Small World Experiment  researched by Stanley Milgram, showed that on the average we are connected through social networks to each other by six degrees of separation. Milgram's experiment can be applied to our nightly dreams and dreaming. I hope you will join me over the next 1001 Nights in search of a dream where the paths and connections to each other are loving and peaceful. Join me in the conversation on my Facebook page (accessable via Facebook icon at the website).

People collect stamps or coins, others collect art, antiques or books, some collect guns and classic cars, some trophies, perhaps some even collect friends. My own personal taste for the objet d'art has been collecting dreams for the purpose of dream research (oneirology). For well over 30 years, I have collected dreams, experimented with dreams and carried out basic research about the nature of dreams to promote understanding of what it means to be a human being. My formal field work began long ago on a non-descript November 11, 1977 day in Zurich, Switzerland. In the memorialized pages that follow, I will provide you the reader with my tales, experiences, memories, thoughts, feelings and dreams. I will embark with you (the reader) on a journey through the everyday personal life perspective of people dreaming (including myself) in the global village. Much like Carl Gustav Jung's Memories, Dreams, Reflections or Marcel Proust's Rememberance of Things Past a novel that thematically narrates about growing up, participating in society, falling in love and learning about art, my own narrative celebrates the rites of passage of my own life journey meeting people, seeing places and participating in life. My memories of a life are seen through my own spectacles, observing and interacting with the everyday poetic kaleidescope of our dreams and Dream Visions that I have collected and experienced. Field Notes of a Dream Researcher is intended to reveal the private scientific and poetic side of the International Institute for Dream Research (IIDR) website, it is the back-story of the IIDR's literary genesis.
 
When I opened the doors of International Institute for Dream Research website fifteen years ago (in 1996), it was designed and intended to act as an ancient Greek Asclepian (God of Medicine) dream temple where people could freely read, contemplate, perhaps even incubate dreams in search of the meaning of the dream and their life. As a philosopher and clinical psychotherapist I am reminded that the ancient Greek physician's Hippocratic Oath which invoked the name of Asclepius. Basic research about this topic leads us to the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates last words before drinking the hemlock and dying, which were about honoring the god of medicine. Many tens of thousands have visited the IIDR website from most of the countries on our planet. Many have donated their dreams, providing a database and foundation for a theory about dreams as they relate to the medicial humanities. If the medical humanities would re-institutionalize the dream as an important source of psychodiagnostic and psychotherapeutic information concerning the individual and the community's well-being (in terms of how we live and the human condition on our planet), a great deal of needless pain and suffering could be avoided. It has been my philosophical mission to remind an oftime poetically oblivious and sleep walking humanity of what Erich Fromm called The Forgotten Language of the dream. By providing you the reader with a more personal narrative, my aim is to awaken what Ernst Bloch termed The Principle of Hope. Hope is what propels humanity towards the future, my hope is that a peaceful collective revolution in dreaming can rid our planet of the violent, hateful and nightmaric dystopian cycle of War and Peace in the Global Village and restore The Ecology of Our Dreams.
