'Precognitive Dreams
and the Collective Unconscious'
Paul Kiritsis’s "Dreaming Without My Timekeeper:
A Critical Investigation into Precognitive Dreams" (2013) is a comprehensive study into the precognitive faculty and its implications from a transpersonal perspective. Through the transcription, categorization, and analysis of fifty-one dream fragments belonging to fifteen participants, Kiritsis has established a strong case for precognition as an authentic and ‘normative’ aspect of human consciousness. In this lecture Paul will give a brief outline of what precognitive dreams actually are; he will proceed onto a historiographical expose of same very famous examples; he will then discuss his research in the context of Carl Jung’s collective unconscious, elucidating how telegnostic projections actually support the objective existence of a ‘shared mind’; and finally he will lay bare the implications of a postmodern worldview that openly acknowledges such phenomena
