This paper introduces the Coded Resonance Theory (CRT), a novel framework comprising a unique Storage Architecture, Retrieval Mechanism, and Systemic Logic designed to decipher the mechanics of human consciousness, Self, Dream and Telepathy. The theory proposes that Consciousness is the active transformative process that converts Alertness into Awareness—a massless, "photon-type" data product...
This thesis explores the soul-body dynamic and motherhood in seventeenth-century literature. The topics examined in each chapter demonstrate the spiritual importance of the womb in particular across a range of literary texts from the period. I analyse both male-authored and female-authored texts that discuss women’s bodies, and I support each argument by referencing theological and medical...
The article aims to clarify the concept of naivety as it is presented in the works of Georges Bachelard. Although this concept is frequently mentioned, it has not yet been clearly defined. The significance of this research lies in its connection to antagonistic phenomena such as naive science and the naive image in poetry, which are system-forming elements of Bachelard’s philosophical project....
A cross-sectional survey examining lucid dream induction technique use outside the research setting and its relationship with lucid dreams and sleep paralysis. Reporting will be done in accordance with the following guidelines: CROSS (Sharma et al., 2021), CHERRIES (Eysenbach, 2004), and Q-SSP (Protogerou & Hagger, 2020).

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a targeted lucidity reactivation protocol to induce lucid dreaming in a home setting, with a large sample size, and over an extended period, using an automated sleep experiment system and a wearable EEG device.
This dissertation maps the bridge between the physical and dreamed body. I examine how physiology, sensory stimulation, lucid awareness, and dream control interact during sleep, framing it as a bidirectional dream–body interface (DBI). Across four works — two laboratory studies, a communication proof-of-concept, and an integrative review — I map how external signals enter dreams, how these...
Practices involving altered states of consciousness (ASCs) are receiving increasing scientific and public attention, particularly in domains such as psychedelic assisted therapy and mindfulness-based interventions (Lee et al., 2021; Nichols et al., 2017). There is also an increasing interest in a broader range of practices involving altered states, including breathwork, ice-bath immersions,...
Abstract Subjective processes of change, dreams, dance, theater representations, translations, and memories of local and global heritage—all of these things are a kind of grammar that constitutes parts of the experiences of mediumship practiced in candomblé in Germany. I have observed these practices in my fieldwork since 2009. New forms of sacred agency in bodily practices, the different...
Dream experiences may play a critical role in sleep quality, yet limited research has examined how the emotional tone (valence) of dreams influences sleep stability and recovery. This study investigates the relationship between dream valence, emotional intensity, and subjective sleep quality in university students. Using a correlational design, participants (N = 150) will complete self-report...
This paper presents a comprehensive investigation into the nature of consciousness, selfhood, and perceived reality through the lens of the holographic hypothesis-the proposition that all phenomena consist of symbolic information within a self-contained memory system with no external referent. The inquiry begins with an examination of the "self" as a symbolic construction generated by the...
