The following article is an exploration of supernal dreaming, a type of dream that engages the dreamer as a profound, participatory, and often revelatory event. Dream types are not well developed in dream research; this article contributes to the development of a more typological approach to dream analysis. Four dream types are presented and contextualized with reference to their metaphysical and ontological significance. The types discussed are normative-rational dreams, mythic-imaginal dreams, psychic-intuitive dreams, and supernal-transpersonal dreams. The various types are illustrated with examples from the author’s extensive dream journal in order to highlight the subtle distinctions between the dream types, and how they might intersect or overlap. The dream morphology is placed within a larger context of metatheory based on the ontological significance of agency and its relationship, through dreaming, to a sentient cosmology. This cosmology is based on a creative, process-based metaphysics, in which dreams function to sustain and promote human development. Dreaming is presented as a visionary capacity leading to new enactive and embodied ways of life. The article shows how dreams can act as a stimulus for ontological insights and become a basis for paranormal perceptions and an inspirational approach to dream actualization.

This research aims to clarify the synergy (bond/integration) between the Capital and the Intelligence in light of the Qura’an and Sunnah from sutainable developmental perspective, in the other way its attentively enlightens the meanings of versus of Quran and Sunnah in sustainable way; The research methodology was based ubon Tracking the Holy Quraan & Sunnah to reveal/explain the link/connection between capital and Intelligance mentioned in it, the researcher reaches that there is strong integration between the types (Capital& Intelligence) in examples (Role Models/leaders) from Quran and Sunnah in order to achieve peace, prosperity and sustainability to the community, and it reveals that Quran and true sunnah has a biggest influence in supporting this Coalition by setting such these examples and with the guidance of Allah and its prophet Mohammed (ppuh) reactions (sayings, doing and approval), taken in consideration not to twist the versus of Quran or hadith to comply/ match with the subject of the research; and the results of this study that there is a strong sustainable relationship between all types of capital and intelligence supported by Quran and reinforced by Sunnah, in fact there is a solid bond between intelligence and capital shown in Quran and Sunnah for the sake of humanity, also Quran and Sunnah encourages transparency and positivity in all ways of life (relationships, thoughts, communications,..) in sustainable moral frame to achieve Eternity in this life and at the judgment day; And the recommendations is that It’s Important for Islamic Institutes to support like these researches effectively to enhance the sustainable human development in the society, further more It’s crucial to implement the intelligence types by Institutes in Islamic perspective in all ways of life (educational, cultural, social,..) to build a generation proud of his Islam and ready to work for it.

AbstractDream reports collected after rapid eye movement sleep (REM) awakenings are, on average, longer, more vivid, bizarre, emotional and story-like compared to those collected after non-REM. However, a comparison of the word-to-word structural organization of dream reports is lacking, and traditional measures that distinguish REM and non-REM dreaming may be confounded by report length. This problem is amenable to the analysis of dream reports as non-semantic directed word graphs, which provide a structural assessment of oral reports, while controlling for individual differences in verbosity. Against this background, the present study had two main aims: Firstly, to investigate differences in graph structure between REM and non-REM dream reports, and secondly, to evaluate how non-semantic directed word graph analysis compares to the widely used measure of report length in dream analysis. To do this, we analyzed a set of 125 dream reports obtained from 19 participants in controlled laboratory awakenings from REM and N2 sleep. We found that: (1) graphs from REM sleep possess a larger connectedness compared to those from N2; (2) measures of graph structure can predict ratings of dream complexity, where increases in connectedness and decreases in randomness are observed in relation to increasing dream report complexity; and (3) measures of the Largest Connected Component of a graph can improve a model containing report length in predicting sleep stage and dream complexity. These results indicate that dream reports sampled after REM awakening have on average a larger connectedness compared to those sampled after N2 (i.e. words recur with a longer range), a difference which appears to be related to underlying differences in dream complexity. Altogether, graph analysis represents a promising method for dream research, due to its automated nature and potential to complement report length in dream analysis.

The aim of this qualitative research was to determine the typical of the contents of personality of grown-up people with mental disabilities as well as when and under what conditions that became typical of them. 22 people of both genders aged between 22 and 58 took part in this study, all of them have 2nd group of mental or both mental and physical disabilities and live in Social Care home on regular and stable basis (>5 years). Research took part in the context of their living environment, both during everyday life using method of Symbolic interactionism, and retrospectively according to the human development model epigenetic insights. To describe the contents of personality the typological approach was used. Results of this study show that personological problems of these people that weren’t identified and treated in a timely manner in most cases intensify and are transferred in the coming ages under conditions of destructive living environment.

Interpretive Method

Patient dreams in psychotherapy can be seen as narratives pointing to underlying conflicts as well as to potential solutions for overcoming mental health problems. Conceptualizations of the dream and its potential in the psychoanalytic tradition meanwhile are well supported by empirical dream research. Nevertheless, there is a strong need for more research connecting the meaning conveyed by the dream with the psychopathology of the patient and with process in psychotherapy. Structural Dream Analysis (SDA) as a method to investigate the meaning conveyed in dream series from analytical psychotherapies is introduced. It combines earlier methods of narrative analysis with psychoanalytic ways of interpreting symbols into a coherent and manualised interpretive method; the application of the method is demonstrated with a case example.
