Dream hackers where are they now? Each guest receives a valuable gift
Find out who dream hackers are and how these individuals hack the world of dreams. The appearance is relatively recent, but it has already raised many questions. Their movement is becoming increasingly popular.

Who are dream hackers and what do they do?
Similar hackers, or XC groups appeared approximately 8-10 years ago. They are an organization of people united by one common interest- study of mysterious phenomena associated with the world of dreams. These people call themselves hackers because they apply hacker techniques to their dreams to hack secure programs. They are called dream stalkers.
XC Group
In the understanding of dream stalkers, night visions represent closed program created by a perfect computer - the human brain.
People spend about a third of their allotted time sleeping - not that little. For about five thousand years, great minds of different civilizations tried to unravel its secrets - in vain. To make sure that dreams turn out to be a secret closed to a person, it is enough to compare the available information about them and other everyday phenomena. Reality programs protected from human penetration are protected by hostile forces. From the point of view of religion and worldview of everyone individual
they can be considered and classified ad infinitum. Representatives of the XC group are convinced that these entities manifest themselves in patterns of security and repressive structures similar to those that every person in the world has encountered. For any dream hacker, the activity begins with studying and researching the theory of visions. This period is called highest level
After learning to become aware of dreams, the second stage begins. Dreamstalkers are engaged in exploring the world, which, in their belief, every person sees outside of waking hours. The main task is to learn to navigate it. In ordinary dreams this is impossible, but in lucid dreams it is possible with regular practice. The world of dreams is carefully mapped, which we will talk about below. A classification is being made of hostile and friendly, neutral entities that can be found in its vastness. Dreamhackers are developing new techniques for becoming aware of oneself in a dream.
Advanced dream hackers, who navigate the realm of visions, search for information about death, the afterlife, and the true structure of the real and dream worlds. It is unknown what lies beyond the boundaries of the usual understanding of the universe. Hackers don't like to reveal such secrets. To find out all the secrets that are available in the otherworldly universe, you will have to become one of them and get to the bottom of the truth yourself.
“Dream Hackers” - a book by Andrey Reutov
Cover of the book Dream Hackers
The tome “Dream Hackers” is positioned as a fiction novel written in the cyberpunk genre. N it was written on the basis of events that occurred with the organization of scientists from Russia. Dream research teams rarely reveal secrets. This book was written to unite dreamers of the Russian-speaking sector and create Russian tradition dreamhacking.
In Andrey Reutov’s tome “Vision Hackers,” valuable information about dream hacking is presented in the form fiction. It contains theory and practical techniques from the arsenal Russian groups HS. The book is suitable for a beginner who wants to learn more about the world of dreams, secrets and dangers.
Numerous reviews note that the book is interesting. Readers are assured of the unpredictability of the plot, sincerely sympathize with the main characters and expect the continuation of the work. It turns out to be an excellent first impetus for deep knowledge of the surrounding Universe.
Dream stalkers and cartography
Dream mapping is the creation of maps of places that were seen in a dream. You may ask - how to map the terrain of the dream world if it is constantly transforming... More practice, and you will definitely notice that only certain areas can change - dreamstalkers call them transmutation zones. This is necessary for the development of memory, attention, as well as learning a new world for most people.
Experienced dream hackers call cartography one of the worm programs that are designed to break inaccessible ordinary person mechanisms of access to the world of dreams.
The common method of looking at hands, known to everyone, also has this nature. The mapping method is completely safe. No one has ever gone crazy from writing down dreams and drawing up a diagram of the area they saw.
You can map lucid dreams that were recorded several years ago. Mapping visions will help awareness. For many dreamers, the cards are similar to each other, but have serious differences. They contain landmarks that everyone can see. You will be able to figure out which part of the terrain is constantly changing, and which remains constant and can be regarded as a landmark. Mapping visions is combined with any techniques: or recapitulation.
Dream hackers study and master techniques related to dreams. They put into practice the information received in dreams, systematize it and study it. Stalkers know many secrets about dreams and out-of-body travel. The techniques are complex, but accessible to everyone.
In contact with
A techno-myth that arose on the Internet in the early 2000s in the wake of the beginning of the computer era, the release of the films “The Thirteenth Floor”, “The Matrix” and others.
The essence of the Dream Hackers legend, in a nutshell: There was a certain group that was studying dreams, our dreams are a “protected program,” they concluded. And they decided that in order to gain strength, superpowers, they need to hack this program, and then all the possibilities hidden from us will open up. Then a certain philanthropist became interested in their research and decided to allocate several million for research, then a breakthrough occurred, secret knowledge was revealed to hackers. Naturally, the special services became interested in this, and a confrontation arose. (All in genres science fiction
!) Subsequently, they killed the founder of the group, Sergei Izrigi, but his business continued to live. The first group of hackers acquired secret knowledge and never appeared in public again. A second group emerged, their followers, then a third...
What actually happened: A certain Sergey IzRigi, inspired by hacker topics and lucid dreams, participated in various mailing lists and led several topics on forums, he decided to collect small group For, it all started with simple interest and curiosity, but later grew into a sect with the ideology of SI and its own structure. Subsequently, Sergei was killed because of the division of money, and the group broke up. They actually had some groundwork, but it was mainly statistics of vivid dreams and a set of various practices existing at that time. Books were taken as a basis, but different syntax and terminology were used. There were no special results, but a certain mystery was created, secrecy, periodic awareness in a dream was discussed and interpreted by the whole group. But the hacker approach itself was and remains a dead end, which is why many do not get results from practice, yes, something works, but the main thing is not there. There is no understanding and vision of the dreaming process, what is really necessary, how, what and why it works. Subsequently, new groups were created, many disbanded, reformed, and new people appeared.
Dream hackers - books.
The publishing house “Vest” became interested in the topic and presentation and decided to create a science fiction series, with elements of esotericism “Dream Hackers”, in the writing of which the following authors participated, most under pseudonyms:
Dream Hackers— Andrey Reutov,
Ravenna dream workshop— A. Balaban and S. Zaitsev,
The first gate. Exploring dream reality step by step— M. Fortune
Dream traveler — V. Putnik
Dream Forum - Vadim Zeland
Workshop on hacker stalking - P. Macchiavelli
IBI. Mark. Farewell to Gorgon and IBI. Red kefir - S. Trofimov
Some of the techniques described in books really work, but a lot of them are embellished, and this is a dead end. Most methods are simply modified to fit the theme of hacking and bypassing brain programs. For example, the so-called Trixes, for frequent routine checks aimed at briefly increasing awareness, enabling rational thinking in dreams, and disciplining oneself. Also, we must not forget that these are completely different people who are in no way related to the first group of dream hackers.
Cartography of dreams- a modified version of keeping a dream diary with the introduction of a gaming component and the desire to put together the overall picture, a puzzle of dream reality. Although what we see in dreams is just a projection of our thoughts and emotions during the day, there are, of course, forms of collective expression of the psyche, trends occurring in. AND general images and ideas will be in dreams, no doubt, but a map cannot be made from this. You can even predict some significant events based on the analysis of many people’s dreams; I also did this and predicted the second one in 2-3 years. world war. Here are just some examples of presenting materials through the topic of dream hacking.
The books themselves are not bad, but we must not forget that a myth with elements of science fiction is just a myth with elements of science fiction and often confuses and confuses people who are just starting out lucid dreaming practice.
Participants secret society Dreamstalkers believe that humanity will soon face a bright era when lucid dreams will become commonplace for people. For a long time their knowledge was hidden from outsiders, and the stalkers themselves were persecuted and destroyed. Who are they and why were they hunted?
Dream Hackers are a group of researchers of the world of dreams and mysterious phenomena that appeared in the early 90s. Sometimes they are called stalkers or dreamstalkers, but most often they are called the XC group.

Are dreams a protected program?
Sleep is closed system, created by a perfect computer - the human brain. For any program, you can easily identify the protective and information structures that make up it.
Dream Hackers:
- hack dreams;
- map them;
- use the acquired knowledge.
The methods were successful - they hacked the dream
Different points of view agree on one thing - dreams are protected by forces hostile to man. Dreamstalkers used the hacker method of breaking into them and achieved success.
Hacker activities
It begins with studying the theory of dreams and awareness of oneself in a dream. At this stage, candidates who are unable to cope with phenomena to which experienced hackers have long been accustomed are eliminated. The first stage of training is designed to strengthen the spirit of the future dream stalker.
The second stage is the development of new ways of becoming aware of oneself in a dream and drawing up a dream map. Advanced hackers study the images that come their way and carefully document them.
Dreamstalkers, who have perfectly mastered the skills of out-of-body travel, collect information about:
- the afterlife;
- of death;
- real world.
Hackers learned the secrets of the world
The XC group does not share the crumbs of valuable knowledge that they managed to collect. You'll have to join their ranks.
Dreams in blood
In the early 90s in Russia, one of the HS groups experienced tragic story. Two hackers: Sergey Izrigi and Dmitry Volokh received a strange order to collect information about dreams. Dream clubs were created in many cities, including Moscow, St. Petersburg, Chita and Saratov. Sergey and Dmitry carried out an active advertising campaign, and their classes were attended by thousands of people.
Psychologists worked at the meetings and recorded on videotape people's stories about their dreams. Later, in 1994, the customer demanded a detailed report on the work done. Dmitry refused, and soon his body was found in one of the cities near Moscow. Funding for the clubs stopped, and the investigation into the murder of Dmitry Volokh was completed in a hurry.
Sergei Izrigi said that shortly before his death, Dmitry warned him about the threat. As it turned out, among the members of the analytical group there were undercover law enforcement officers state security. Apparently, they were interested in the mysterious customer and the information that the members of the XC group had collected.
In 1995, we managed to trace the missing Sergei. He was identified from a photo on a brochure advertising a new congregation in Vilnius. Participants were going to explore dream mapping.
Soon, some of the hackers were arrested, and Izriga’s fiancee was kidnapped and killed shortly before. When Sergei was detained, he was shot in the shoulder.
Russian dream stalkers have been kidnapped and even killed
Late 90s law enforcement agencies The hackers of the Muravyov brothers were detained. Among the seized materials were the developments of Sergei Izriga’s group. The operatives managed to get on Sergei’s trail, but he soon disappeared again.
In 2001, materials obtained in the 90s were leaked onto the Internet. Izrigi disappeared, according to some sources, died. The arrested hackers were released, and new dream research clubs appeared throughout Russia.
Where do the wasps fly?
It is common practice in the hacker community to use professional slang. It is based on knowledge of the computer and how programs work. If a newcomer does not understand the speech of a dreamstalker, then they will not explain to him the intricacies of the hacker kitchen and will stop communicating.
Getting into the environment of stalkers is not easy - you have to earn it
In the 90s, when the first clubs opened, the young people who visited them were full of enthusiasm. It seemed to them that they were on the threshold revolutionary discoveries. But time has shown that stalking is primarily a spiritual practice. To achieve heights in it, you will have to spend time and effort.
Decades later, hackers have not lost their enthusiasm and are still convinced that with luck and effort, stalking will open up new opportunities for humanity.
Night guests
Keep a diary and write down images from your dreams and how much progress you have made in your practice. Keeping a journal will remind the beginner of the goal.
Your days should pass peacefully. There is no need to throw out emotions, swear and make trouble. Save your energy for overnight travel.
Using the method invented by Carlos Castaneda will help you with this. He called it controlled stupidity. Its essence is to show any emotions while remaining internally calm.
Carlos Castaneda's teacher - Yaqui shaman Don Juan
Using the technique, you will save strength for the energy of overcoming. Hackers believe that this energy is the basis for stalking.
Contagious experience
Don't be surprised if after reading this article you become aware of yourself in a dream. The technique has an interesting effect: the more you read about it, the easier it is to make an out-of-body trip.
Stephen Laberge - founder of the Institute of Lucid Dreaming
- Try not to think about anything before going to bed.
- Wake up 2-3 hours before your usual awakening.
- Wash your face in 1 minute cold water, lie on your side and breathe deeply.
When you wake up, you will be rested, but not sleepy. Cold water will invigorate, leaving the body relaxed. When you fall asleep, your mind will remain agitated and remember real world.
Each guest receives a valuable gift
Clairvoyant Elena Mir created a method of an ideal image. It lies in the fact that you answer the question: “Why do I need a lucid dream?” Your answer is the abilities you want to achieve. For example, learning to fly or run fast. And you endow them with an astral double. He becomes yours in an ideal way. This will help you feel the energy needed to transition into lucid dreaming.
Elena advises to treat dreams with care. She studied the practices of the Senoi tribe from Malaysia and adopted their experience. For them, sleep is a personal experience. Only close people are allowed to talk about it.
According to the Senoi technique, you can get in a dream what you dream about in reality. Don’t be afraid to boldly express your desires and ask consciousness for everything you dream of. In dreams, the laws of balance work; you will get as much as you deserve. No one will be left without an answer, says Elena Mir.
The dreamer Patricia Garfield, who lived with the Senoi, shares the same opinion. She summarized the magical experience of the tribe and came to the conclusion that the main thing was receiving a gift from the world of dreams:
- answers to important questions;
- talent discovery;
- self-understanding;
- random things and events.
A gift from the world of dreams is a rarity. Its owner is protected by otherworldly forces, and his respect among the tribe grows.
It is customary for the Senoi people to learn lucid dreaming from childhood.
Welcome to my dream
While researching Elena Mir’s books and hacker techniques, I caught myself thinking that before falling asleep, I imagine a large, blurry letter C on my palms. My dreams have changed. Previously, I did not remember them, but now they became intermittent and, when I woke up, I clearly remembered what happened in the dream.
These were my first steps towards lucid dreaming. Gradually, I learned not to think about business and work before going to bed. I imagined worlds I wanted to visit.
Looking at your hands is the simplest mindfulness technique.
And one day in a dream I was able to look at my hands. It was a moment of happiness. My hands looked large and unnatural, as if drawn on, but that was the vision. I realized that now I can do everything I wanted in my sleep:
- travel;
- create new worlds;
- instantly move between them;
- do not depend on the laws of nature;
- meet interesting people.
One day I lost concentration and fell from a high mountain. I was very frightened and was thrown out of the dream. Imagine my surprise when I woke up and found myself lying in bed safe and sound.
Where are we flying? Why are we flying?
Out-of-body travel, in addition to creating new worlds, can awaken forgotten memories in a person:
- feel like a fetus in the womb;
- survive the pain of birth;
- remember how they were conceived.
Psychologists have come to the conclusion that the images that visit dreamers are similar to the images seen by those who have mastered one of the techniques transpersonal psychology– holotropic breathing.
Psychologists believe that dream stalkers used holotropic breathing to achieve OS
You exhale and inhale quickly. This leads to an altered state of consciousness and the appearance of hallucinations.
People said they experienced it all over again:
- intrauterine experience;
- racial and collective experiences;
- planetary evolution.
Representatives of the Russian Transpersonal Association believe that dream hackers did not invent anything new, but only attracted public attention to a forgotten method. And this is their main and only merit, according to psychologists.
High Censor
The traveler is convinced that some of the information will forever remain classified. With the advent of the Internet, some of the knowledge of hackers became publicly available. These were the developments and techniques of Sergei Izriga’s group.
Vladimir Putnik was personally acquainted with the participants of the HC
Vladimir claims that the tragedy that occurred with the first CS groups was due to the thirst of the participants to quickly get to the point and the irresponsible attraction of everyone into the community. Sharing such knowledge with unprepared people is dangerous.
“Dream Hackers” - Andrey Reutov
The value of this work of art is that it is based on real events. The novel, written in the cyberpunk genre, tells the story of a group of young people who became the first dream stalkers in Russia.
Who are dream hackers and what do they do? How are dream hackers related to Russian nagualism? Dream hackers - new mythology or scam? You will find answers to these questions in this article.
Dream hackers - the birth of a myth
To understand the phenomenon called “dream hackers”, you will have to dig into the history of the phenomenon. The creators of the mythologies did a great job. It is not surprising, since the origins of the HS were two popular Russian science fiction writers. But more on that in due time.
Where does the wind blow from?
Lucid dreaming came to Russia along with Castaneda’s “crooked” translations. For a long time, reprints circulated from hand to hand, and reading about don Juan was the same duty." intellectual elite", how to dissent or use something illegal.
By the 90s post-Soviet space burst. Private publishing houses appeared, hired translators for pennies, and then released spiritual genies of the Western and Eastern sense on the heads of young people who had thrown away their ties and Komsomol badges.
Some people swallowed everything, others simply had fun with interesting things, others replenished the army of proliferating sects. There were also those who seriously tried to practice the applied side of the teaching, called nagualism in the West. It was among these guys that later branded slang appeared - sprites, trixes, etc.
In his youth, the author communicated with seekers of all stripes and calibers. Starting from anomalies and ending with dreamers. Many of them swayed from side to side, and from time to time they fled to the monasteries under construction. A place where all sorts of people flocked interesting personalities from all over the CIS, for ten years in a row there was Divnogorye. Now, alas, there is nothing left of the old parties.
All the techniques of dream hackers come from the St. Petersburg “Castaneda” flats. Later, the occult northern capital was closely intertwined with Prague, but that’s another story. However, I’ll start with the official “paradigm”, in which thousands of seekers who flock to forums with threads about XC believe.
Official version
The official version is this. In the memorable year of 1993 (in my opinion, it was not chosen by chance) to the security company “S. TO." came up with a strange proposal. It was necessary to interview people about their dreams, write down these stories, find common and repeating plots, and present all this in the form statistical report. Representatives of the customer were Sergei Izrigi and Dmitry Volokh. The project was financed more than generously.
Izrigi is not a surname. This pseudonym is short for “Sergey from Riga”.
Every whim for your money! Dream clubs have been opened in Moscow, St. Petersburg and other cities. They worked from February to April 1994. According to S.I., about 10,000 people visited them. Psychologists challenged visitors to be frank, tape recorders (this is 1994) reeled off kilometers of film.
Funding suddenly stopped. In May 1994, D. Volokh was found dead. He managed to warn S. Izrigi about surveillance from outside law enforcement agencies(or those who covered themselves with them). In September 1995, the bride of S.I. kidnapped and killed. The group of dream hackers he formed in Vilnius was dragged through investigations. Izrigi himself was wounded by an unknown person and left for Belarus under the patronage of Vasily Chui.
Izrigi calls him legendary, but I haven’t found a single legend on the RuNet. It seems that he was imprisoned from 1996 to 1999 for organizing a totalitarian sect.
What happens next is completely shrouded in darkness. According to the official version, Sergei Izrigi fell at the hands of the special services. According to the unofficial version, in a criminal showdown during the division of collected funds.
One thing is known. Talented and with a lot of free time, young regulars of the Runet spent more than 3 years promoting the “Dream Hackers” brand. They started with websites on Yandex.People, then organized forums and created accounts in the largest esoteric parties. The idea was picked up by enterprising citizens. Books about dream hackers began to be published under this brand, accessories were sold, and seminars and trainings were organized.
My opinion. All these Detective stories– 100% fiction. Someone tried to organize a sect. I snatched up the OS developments of the St. Petersburg guys who were passionate about Castaneda, and turned up the fog. Nothing good came of it, but the meme turned out to be very tasty and the guys from popular publishing houses took on it. Read below for evidence of the logic of what is happening.
Dream hackers and Russian science fiction writers
Science fiction writer A. Medvedev is a great PR manager for the XC brand. Nicky on the forums: Vigo, Koschey. Under his first nickname, he opened a website where he posted articles about dream hacking: “DNA of the tonal,” etc. Pseudonyms: Andrey Reutov, P. Macchiavelli. Here are his books under pseudonyms:
Andrey Reutov | P. Macchiavelli |
Dream Hackers | Workshop on hacker stalking |
The next pillar of HS is Sergei Trofimov. He is positioned as the spiritual father of S. Izriga. Trofimov describes the difficult everyday life of the Institute of Biochemical Research. A kind of mixture of Oleg Divov’s ideas and urban fantasy. Very much for an amateur.
As soon as a trend appears, the dodgers join the tail. Now there are about 8 authors who are “experts” in the inner workings of dream hackers.
The structure of myth
Joseph Campbell identified common mythologies in ancient, medieval and modern mythologies structural elements. His works have had big influence on Hollywood screenwriters and talented scoundrels creating New Age sects.
The myth of dream hackers is constructed in a classical way. Servants mysterious power(customer) are trying to collect prohibited information. They are persecuted for this by the mysterious they ( secret organization"Legion"), hiding behind security services. The main characters die, but manage to collect sacred knowledge and pass it on to their students.
The students hide and liken themselves to Morpheus and Trinity searching for Neo online. Many people are vying for the role of a new avatar, but their abilities and charisma are not enough. Let's wait.
Whoever came up with this was heavily influenced by Stephen King and perhaps early Lazarchuk. Let me keep it to myself why I draw this conclusion.
Claimed capabilities of old hackers
Rogues, dreamers and forum trolls write about joint dreams, fighting the astral enemies of the human race, teleportation and preventing the apocalypse. Conspiracy theories, Castaneda, courtyard esotericism and Russian paganism. It's not just the Illuminati who have to hiccup.
Dream Hackers are a group of Russian dreamers who were quite popular in the early 2000s.
The history of this group is quite vague. But fame about her spread even before the publication of books authored by the group members. The legend of the group is this: while developing and studying the laws of the universe, hackers came to the attention of the Legion organization. This organization is a foreign black magic order that penetrated the power and commercial structures of Russia. The persecution of the group members began. To survive and escape persecution, some Hacker techniques were introduced into the network. It was these techniques that brought fame to the group in the early 2000s. At that time there were no books from Hackers yet, but links to their website and forum were floating around the Internet.
There are many unique things among hacking techniques that are not found in other sources. Now all hacking techniques can be found in their books.
Reutov’s book “Hackers of Dreams”
This book, with the same name - “Dream Hackers”, is an adventure novel.
Many people really like it as an adventure novel. Someone sees in her true story with real events, which means the abilities and techniques are also real.
One thing is true - the book inspires to practice and develop, it contains a huge positive charge. You can buy Reutov’s book “Dream Hackers” at OZON.
This book will be of interest only to practitioners. It doesn’t need to be read by beginners; read a couple of other books first. This book is the text of a workshop on stalking, which was conducted by representatives of the Dream Hackers group in 2003.
It will be very useful for those who want to master Medici solitaire.
Books “The Dreaming Workshop of Ravenna”
Four parts of a workshop conducted by Ravenna in 2004. The purpose of the workshop is to gain control over your dreams.
The workshop is devoted to some patterns of dreams. You must first discover them, then learn how to use them. A lot of serious work.
Perhaps while reading this workshop you will feel a slight unusual breath of the Spirit. Don't be surprised, this is what the authors of the book intended. You have a choice: take advantage of this feeling and join the stream of the Dream Hackers group, or not.
Current state
Now the "Dream Hackers" movement has divided into several separate groups, who are often not very friendly towards each other.
Goals, theory and practice of movement
The goal of Dream Hackers is to understand the world through increasing their own awareness. Their worldview can be defined as something between the shamanism of Carlos Castaneda and scientific approach Stephen Laberge.
In an effort to study the world of dreams in order to be able to more powerfully influence the real world, Dream Hackers have developed and described in detail a number of unique practices that have become known to a wide range of readers for the first time.
Mapping Dreams
One of the practices that Dream Hackers first started talking about was the technique of dream mapping. Before them, no one in our open spaces mentioned this method.
The essence of dream mapping is this: all dreams, the place of action of which covers some more or less significant space, need to be plotted on a map. At first, of course, there will be no map, and dreams are simply written down in a notebook. But over time, the number of dreams increases and some of them begin to combine into general areas. Gradually, the Seeker covers with his attention the entire map of the dream world. It turns out to be not so big and limited at the edges by mountains and seas.
Also, Dream Hackers promise some kind of insight from opening the entire dream map, but I have not found evidence of this.
In any case, the practice of dream mapping is useful, it allows the beginner to remember many dreams, and when he dreams again in a familiar place, he can become aware of recognizing the location of the dream.
