SUMMARY:

This article explores the "Fourth State of Consciousness", a lucid, visionary state beyond waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Garnet Dupuis presents it as a forgotten yet natural state that plays a vital role in self-healing, insight, and creativity.

He traces the history of this state through thinkers like Dickens, Poe, Einstein, and Mary Shelley, who all accessed it for inspiration and contrasts it with modern disconnection caused by overstimulation and artificial light. The piece introduces Autogenic Training, photic stimulation, and neuroVIZR Brain Engagement as tools to help re-access this state.

The article links this Fourth State to the Entropic Brain Model, proposing that modern humans suffer from a kind of "Fourth State Deficiency" and that reclaiming this lucid zone may be essential for emotional processing, trauma resolution, and creative renewal.
