About this piece
This consciousness and reality book explains Cognitive Dream Interface Theory (CDIT) through the dream analogy, for newcomers to philosophy and for readers who already know nondual ideas. Its listed subject is dreams and their interpretation, so it suits dream enthusiasts too.
The paperback has 160 pages and measures 140 x 217 x 14 mm, published by Collective Ink on 25 Aug 2026. It draws on neuroscience, physics, evolutionary biology and philosophy to make sense of dreams, quantum paradoxes and the illusion of a stable self.
Its central idea is that awareness is not in the world; the world is in awareness, a thought long pointed to by contemplatives. Give it to a friend who loves dreams and philosophy. Open Living the Dream and follow its dream analogy from the first page.
Great for: philosophy readers, dream enthusiasts, readers curious about consciousness, nondual readers.
