Statement of the researchable problem:
A complex system in Spirtual Systems thinking
Initial Questions:
What is ANOMALOUS experience?
What is ANOMALOUS DREAMWORK?
After several years of work, I am beginning to form a new research design in non-denominated SOCIALLY ENGAGED SPIRITUALITY for a complex system in Spirtual Systems thinking.
I may have learned something.
It seems reasonable that one of the points of ANOMALOUS DREAMWORK (asleep) is to establish the frame(s) of reference. How is that done? I belive that General Systems Theory (GST) can describe it.

"General systems theory, emerging from the life sciences, brings fresh evidence to confirm ancient, indigenous teachings: the Earth is alive, mind is pervasive, all beings are our relations."

Shamanize!
This is a graduate academic leading edge learning project to:
"symbolize, mythologize, and, eventually, to shamanize"

Statement of the researchable problem:
Initial work has been done to discover SOCIALLY ENGAGED SPIRITUAL anomalous experience by a dreamwork involvement with two spirits: La Calchona and Victor Jara both of Chile.
The social issue, in both cases, is extreme prejudice against Native Americans.
Frames of reference:
In other words both La Calchona and Victor Jara are now archetypes (Analytic), the Super Ego (Psychoanalytic), entities beyond the person (Transpersonal) and , perhaps, an encounter with higher self such as a personal inner teacher (Humanistic).
In Spiritual Systems terminology, they were channeled using Spiritual Systems thinking.
What is Spiritual Systems Thinking?
The general field is a recombinant of Spiritual and General Systems Thinking in concert with Consciousness Studies and Spirituality.
Spiritual Systems is generalist and multi-disciplinary. This generalist area is a new field and can be known as Spiritual Systems. Some work has been done in the area.*

Some Definitions:
What is Anomaly?
"Deviation or departure from the normal or common order, form, or rule."
http://66.161.12.81/search?r=2&q=anomaly
Anomalous Dreamwork:
"When Dr. Ullman and I did our experiments, we both were of the opinion that we were tapping into a dimension that connected all humankind at very deep levels.
Ullman had studied with David Bohm and had learned about the surface or "explicate" order of reality as contrasted with the underlying or "implicate" order of reality.
Anomalous dreams seem to emerge from the "implicate" order.
I took a similar opinion, based on my readings in general systems theory and, later in chaos and complexity theory."

Channeling:
What is a Channeling frame of reference?
"Channelling or channeling is the alleged communication of information to or through a physically embodied human being (the channel or medium), from a spirit or other supernatural entity outside the mind (or self) of the channel.
Channelling is part of the belief systems and rituals of many religions, such as shamanism, Candomblé, Voodoo, Kardecism, Umbanda, and more."
