InPresence host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities.

Here he reflects on the idea that “we are the stuff that dreams are made of”. He notes that the line comes from Prospero, the magus in Shakespeare’s great play, The Tempest. Shakespeare was influenced by the Hermetic tradition and, it seems, meant the line to be taken seriously. Jeff also refers to an online course in Tibetan dream yoga, that emphasizes the same idea. If one considers the parapsychological data on reincarnation, life perhaps is much like a dream.
