El Psicología del Sentido
The Dead Women of Juárez
Introduction:

Project 14:
SOCIALLY ENGAGED SPIRITUALITY
Mission Statement:
To research the horrible and extremely violent set of problems known as The Dead Women of Juárez.
Methodology:
To use dreamwork for socially engaged spirituality to move consciousness in Juarez from a lower reality to a higher plane.
Concentrations:
Project 14 areas of emphasis are: theory, method, practice, peer review, reflection, data analysis and fostering learning.
What is Project 14 doing now?
Project 14 is assembling a body of knowledge using training as Carlos Casteneda style warriors (being trained on a path with heart) for dream characters.
In-process results (dream data) can be found on project websites and in coursework at Harvard University (h2o) detailing that process.
What does Project 14 intend?
Short-term goals: Dreamwork project(s)
Project 14 has several pilot projects among which one is described below by way of example. (Other Project 14 websites, listed below, describe other projects.)
Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot Project
1.) investigation of bias, epistemology and criteria selection regarding the Maimonides Dream Laboratory,
2.) determination of relevant researchable questions for subsequent replication studies,
3.) identification of the calumniators of bias and identify ethical issues,
4.) identification of research criteria
5.) design, propose and define methodology, research design, data analysis formats, falsifiabilty and ways to determine results.
6.) assemble data and arrange publication.
Mid-term goal:
Then, there would be solid, full and concrete proposals for calls for further research.
Planned outputs include regular proposals, grantspersonship, reports and written assembly, presentations as requested, action projects and publication.
Long-term goal:
Strategic planning and permanent implementation of the ultimate Dream Interaction Laboratory of which several pilot projects are underweigh.
Quite a Long-term goal:
Strategic planning and permanent implementation of the ultimate General Science Laboratory where Project 14 would have the latitude to expand into further areas of interest.
