Dreaming Ahead of Time cover

Exploring precognition and synchronicity, Dreaming Ahead of Time reveals how our dreams can connect us to the future and challenge our understanding of time.

In Dreaming Ahead of Time, Gary Lachman delves into his personal encounters with coincidence, synchronicity, and precognition, exploring the remarkable potential of our dreaming minds. He presents a compelling argument that we all possess the ability to 'dream ahead of time,' a skill he has honed over four decades of documenting his own precognitive dreams. The book raises thought-provoking questions about the nature of time and our perceptions of reality, inviting readers to reconsider the boundaries between past, present, and future.

Lachman draws upon the insights of influential thinkers such as J.W. Dunne, J.B. Priestley, and C.G. Jung to enrich his exploration. Through his personal narrative, he introduces readers to the enigmatic world of precognitive dreams and the concept of meaningful coincidences. The author posits that these experiences are not merely random occurrences but are deeply interconnected with our subconscious mind, revealing a hidden dimension of our existence.

Dreaming Ahead of Time is not just a memoir; it's an invitation to unlock the latent powers of our minds. Lachman's reflections encourage readers to embrace their own dream experiences and consider the possibility that our dreams may hold keys to understanding the future. This book is a unique blend of personal experience and philosophical inquiry, making it a fascinating read for anyone intrigued by the mysteries of the mind and the nature of reality.

Praise for Lost Knowledge of the Imagination by Gary Lachman:

'Very important.'
-- Philip Pullman

'One of the leading students of the western esoteric tradition, Lachman has published critical studies of Swedenborg, Madame Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, Rudolf Steiner, P.D. Ouspensky and Jung -- and he has done so without being raptly worshipful or casually dismissive.'
-- Washington Post

'Lachman manages to make basic concepts in esoteric philosophy and history lively as well as readable.'
-- Kirkus Reviews

'Lachman creates a history of ideas that fascinates and excites.'
-- New York Journal of Books

'An excellent book -- scholarly but eminently readable by anyone seeking appreciation of the spiritual.'
-- Alister Hardy Society

Praise for The Caretakers of the Cosmos by Gary Lachman:

'This is one of the most stimulating and significant books on the subject in years. The Caretakers of the Cosmos is an essential work for all who are curious about what makes us uniquely human, and about how we can all participate, each in our own way, in the creation of a fuller and more satisfying world.'
-- Parabola magazine

'Lachman's depth of reading and research are admirable, and he weaves the story well, developing what is becoming increasingly obvious -- that all of human history reflects the evolution of consciousness.'
-- Scientific and Medical Network Review
