About Dream Genesis
Our Story
Shaiva studied Eastern Religions at Oneonta under Dr. Ashok Malhotra. In 2015 he began attending Zen Mountain in Phoenicia, New York and learned meditation under Master Shugen, the successor to renowned Zen Master John Daido. He is currently in collaboration for his book “Dream Genesis,” with pioneer dream scientist J. Alan Hobson, with whom he shares a birthday. Along with Hobson, Shaiva uses lucid dreaming to adjust consciousness from a foundational level and brings meditative techniques and worldviews into an advanced secular practice
Shaiva Tantra spent his childhood in a Chinese gated community, surrounded by pristine lakes, golden statues, covered bridges, and images of the Buddha. Immersion in that culture led to a great interest in Eastern religion and an eventual love of meditation. As a child he suffered from sleep paralysis, and like many with the condition was dismissed. To cope with this, he developed techniques to transform sleep paralysis into a lucid dreaming practice, and eventually discovered the Tibetan practice of Dream Yoga. In 2018 he succeeded in using meditation to produce waking induced lucid dreams, WILD, in which the practitioner can go directly from waking meditation into the dream world.
Part of the research for Dream Genesis is built upon his workshops, during which we induce lucid dreaming. It is believed that our actions at the subtle level create enormous effect in our waking lives and the world at large, and that by changing our relationships to the objects and events within our dream world, we change the way we relate in waking life. Become lucid in dream, become lucid in your life.
