Women: Don't Fall For This!!!
And if you have a friend who did, tell them the truth.
The man they're clinging to is a total fraud. Evil even.
If you have a hard time being certain and don't want to speak up you need to work harder yourself, until it becomes obvious who's pretending and who's for real.
I'm afraid even an "invitation" from a bad man like this has a corrupting influence on women.
They realize he's just pretending, and might do the same themselves.
Without him.
If you look around you'll find this also. It's characterized by made up Tensegrity moves, excessive self-promotion on Youtube and at Castaneda group events, and by adding outside stuff to the mix as if Taoism or Buddhism will help someone learn sorcery.
Perhaps an admiration for one of the fake sorcery books, such as those of Miguel, Victor, or Armando.
Only sorcery helps you learn sorcery. And only Carlos and the witches have books that can help you learn. There's more to the books than simple "facts".
They carry INTENT!
Everything else will make it nearly impossible to succeed.
All outside information is designed to prevent the real thing from manifesting. Especially that of religious organizations.
By who?
That's the mystery.
What removed magic from the world, starting around 10,000 years ago?
Even don Juan wasn't certain about how it came to be.
Was it merely bad, greedy people?
Or something from outside humanity?
If you believe I might be targeting you specifically with this post, you could be right!

I'd recruit in Mandarin speaking cultures, except they tend to make up magic.
I've been told, it's impossible to teach sorcery to the Chinese.
They consider pretending to be as good as the real thing.
From what I've seen over there, it seems about right.
I have an office in "New" Taipei.
Which is actually the oldest part of the city, I suspect.
See...
Many people in mainland China use witchcraft to collect apprentices to cheat money. The witchcraft books you mentioned about Toltec have been translated into Chinese and sold.
Well, I suppose that's a good thing.
I kind of wish we could create real sorcerers in China.
Imagine if someone "fixed" martial arts!
All that leaping across tree tops with "light body technique" is real!
You can do that! I certainly have.
Awake!
But I was chasing a witch at the time.
On my own, I can only leap into outer space.
Or walk through walls.
Before I came here, I had the idea to find an old temple up in the mountains above Taiwan, or at the least an old Japanese military outpost.
And try to create sorcerers up there.
But all of my Chinese friends talked me out of it, saying you can't teach real magic in Chinese countries.
They do have a history of copying japanese and american products, and making them cheaper.
Not much history of innovation in modern times, until very recently when the Chinese started buying Russian and Australian engineers.
Some of the best in the world by the way.
Those Toltec masters did not know that their books had been stolen and sold.
Actually the Toltec masters couldn't read or write.
So I doubt they had any books!
And there wasn't any way to profit from them.
The new seers could read and write, but it took all of their time and energy just to replace themselves, before they got too old and had to leave.
Still, as I said, how cool would it be to fix Kung Fu!
Just think of the anger of the Japanese, when the Chinese start flying through the air like a Hong Kong Kungfu movie.
I'd certainly like to see that.
Cholita could pull it off.
She practices the most common southern style of kung fu in China.
And uses it on me from time to time.
You once commented on one of my posts or comments, I'm not sure which and I may have deleted it by now.
I talked about my experience with Yin, and you pointed me towards this subreddit.
I want to learn what Carlos Castaneda taught, but I feel like I am diving into open ocean without knowing how to swim. Should I just get his books? Even the posts here meant for beginners make me feel dizzy.
If you are willing to give me some help, I'd appreciate it. I will not pay you, and do not want or expect anything from you, but if you'd like to help someone who has recognized the feeling of being "activated" in the darkness, exploring the swirling colors I see, as I have read about in some posts, that did not know what it was until reading about it here, it would be appreciated.
Specifically, the mentions of focusing on "here and now" are very powerful to me, as I believe that we are meant to exist specifically in the here and now and that is where we are most powerful and happiest, as an innate thing. I have always felt this, and my recent experiences have only solidified it and given it words.
I'm not allowed.
I have rules from the Allies of Carlos. They sent me here (blackmailed me).
The rules is, I can't take any money, can't accept employment, no employing allowed either, no sex, no meetings, no workshops, and no books.
It's an "endless" rule, because it boils down to I can't do anything at all that would give the critics of Carlos an excuse to ignore what I say.
But they find reasons anyway.
If you want help, learn to summon my blackmailers.
They're available!
"Fairy", and Minx.
Minx isn't actually as bad as I say.
We just have a competition going on for Cholita's double.
I started with reading Journey to Ixtlan. Then listened to the audiobooks of the teachings of don juan: a yaqui way of knowledge, and a separate reality.
It took me 4-5 tries to get past 100 pages, but I think that’s mostly because I wasn’t ready. I enjoyed reading Journey to Ixtlan first because it sets the scene of Carlos meeting Don Juan in a very substantial way, before going into any of his experiences using Mescaline, which play heavily in the second two books. I admittedly was looking for this content initially, and I’m glad I experienced them in the order I did. I think it’s much more powerful to struggle through understanding what Don Juan is trying to teach Carlos early on, before indulging in reading an experience of using drugs as a tool. Much as how Don Juan did not let Carlos experience peyote until he was at least somewhat capable of using effectively.
here are the first three books on Spotify. a good place to start without having to buy or download the books. The rest are on YouTube. I was very confused when I started and listening to them helped me jump forward. I still have a way to go, but I'm happy with my progress thus far.
Uff 100%. I have theory that modern sorcerer would not benefit from having apprentices at all. Maybe like one apprentice that you can genuinely practice with. Like when florida was learning incantations from some random latin witch. But beyond that it would just encourage pretending. Or alpha simp behavior
DJ said he didn't know.
But I believe it's become obvious now.
We have to fight daily to keep this place as a real learning ground for magic.
People invade constantly, and if we make good progress we get the famous "attack of 3s" that Carlos warned us to look out for.
Where "the fliers" suggest awful things to do, to people they can manipulate to come here and attack.
The people don't even know that's what's going on, which might sound impossible but becomes somewhat obvious when you learn what Silent Knowledge is.
We even get wolves in sheep's clothing, encouraging awful pretending regarding sleeping dreaming being a path, when it's only a path to attention seeking.
But in my opinion, what actually killed magic was the invention of money and cities.
Agriculture indirectly, as it allowed such overpopulation that hunting and gathering is nearly impossible in most places, divorcing us from our natural environment. Making us very unhappy.
So that the rise of technology created lots of stupid unhappy people, willing to hand over some money if you can make them feel less hopeless.
Still filled with basic Chimp tribal behavior, so that Gurus and "Masters" can easily attract a big group, with no questions asked.
Such as, where's the magic you use to justify being what you claim to be?
You aren't allowed to challenge the head chimp... The chimp followers will even lynch you for it.
