Overview

Dreaming at the Edges explores transgressions of the boundaries of the typical Western self as generated in and through dreams. Our dreams travel across an unbounded space-time continuum, freely transgressing the boundaries of atomistic selfhood and object-oriented reality, playing within a fluid and permeable topography. Articles in this issue explore luminous disclosures appearing in liminal dream spaces: the transitional dreaming-into-waking state, the interiority-exteriority continuum, expansion and contraction within the elasticity of the subtle body, and mutually-interpenetrating intersubjectivity. Thus, the shimmering edges of the self appear illumined through the animating and radically-redefining landscapes of dreams.
