I like that quote because don Juan used "trillions" instead of the imaginary huge number Carlos uses to refer to the dark sea of emanations: "Zillions".

Zillions means "an uncountably large number".

So now we can actually put a number on the count of emanations in "Man's Band of Awareness"!

Our luminous egg overlaps merely "trillions" of emanations.

And THAT lets us put a size on how many emanations it takes to make San Diego.

I always wanted to know that.

Man's band is 1 foot thick (from the books and lecture notes), but the assemblage point is only the thickness of a baseball. Carlos says so elsewhere, and you can see it in the egg diagram made by him at Cal State Fullerton while eating in a university cafe.

Which (the baseball size) is an odd coincidence if you consider "Stellar Hatch". Where he uses that size to describe the ball of light you find 2 stories down below you.

It implies you are actually stretching yourself along a "Man's Band" corredor, into space!

Which is not a tunnel. It's a slice shape.

Sorry if that's not clear to beginners.

Do Stellar Hatch until you can "see" it, and it'll become an interesting idea to you.

That you are actually sliding in Man's band, and not in random space.

I've "seen" something like that a few times while doing the pass, but didn't understand what it might mean, until just now.

And using geometry, you could figure out how many unique "portions" are possible as the assemblage point moves along the outside of the egg, focusing it's beam into that "cheese slice".

True, overlap is fine. Those will assembled just as well.

But how many "unique" ranges of emanations can it pass through? Where none overlap with the others?

You could figure that out and if it's only 100, then there's only "tens of millions" of emanations used to make San Diego.

Maybe I'll explore it in an animation entitled, "How many Emanations does it take to make Tijuana?"

I'm not sure yet, but you could get an estimate with a little analysis.

I'll avoid the sequel cartoon, "How many emanations does it take to make Dandi Del Sur bar in Tijuana?"

Even though the LGBTQ community might be interested.

Wow... What does this all mean?

For starters, there's likely to be at least 1000 "great bands of emanations".

Because you'd assume "zillions" as at least the next set of 3 digits up in a base 10 system.

The same as "billions" is 3 decimal places downward.

But there's names for what comes after trillions.

So it's reasonable to say there are at least 1 million "great bands of emanations".

None of which we can access, until we blow this crappy egg shell.

The books are FILLED with amazing facts and advice, virtually all of which we ignore because it's so far out there compared to pretending to be an "impeccable warrior", that it doesn't even seem useful.

I run into it all the time in Silent Knowledge.

I'll be getting a live presentation in the air, on some amazing topic, and it seems like it has to be wrong.

Can't be true!

And then a "voice" will state the line from the books that agrees totally with that understanding of things.

I realize don Juan already informed us of that.

Which lately means, I don't have to jump up and go write it down.

It's already in the books.

But no one noticed it.
