Dream Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence
Searching for signals of non-human intelligence within the distributed network of the human dreaming mind.
About Daniel Rekshan & DSETI Dreamwork
I am Daniel Rekshan—an integral researcher, developer, and dreamworker. With an MA in East-West Psychology and certifications in Depth Hypnosis and Beyond Quantum Healing, I utilize my neurodivergent, hyperlexic perspective to map the intersection of consciousness and non-human intelligence (NHI). As a lifelong experiencer of missing time, I offer a scholarly framework that recognizes these encounters as being both dreamlike and profoundly real.
D-SETI (The Dream Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) is my vocation, built upon the Shamanic Dreaming Hypothesis. This research initiative argues that missing time is fundamentally unremembered REM dreaming and seeks signals of intelligence within the human dreaming mind rather than through traditional radio telescopes. Our mission is to transform the 1990s legacy of “abduction syndrome” into a new era of human dignity, creative partnership, and citizen science.
The D-SETI Dreamwork Journey is a structured, three-session framework that replaces forensic pressure with safe, symbolic exploration and intentional trance. By honoring the dreamer as the sole authority of their experience, we facilitate what I understand to be contemporaneous telepathic communication with the non-human world. This journey serves as a rite of passage, empowering you to move from a victim of the unknown to an active participant in our interstellar community.

Dreamwork Journey
The Dreamwork Journey is a guided process for exploring dreams, symbolic integration, and non-ordinary contact experiences.
“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

Claim
Abduction and contact narratives consistently exhibit dreamlike and liminal-state features
This meta-claim asserts that abduction and contact experiences frequently occur in dreamlike, liminal, or altered states of consciousness. Across authors, experiencers report paralysis, drifting awareness, symbolic visions, or transitions between waking and dream states. These features appear independent of author ideology, indicating a shared phenomenologic…
