Just added notes on a night session with Castaneda and Cleargreen where Castaneda first instructed us on the use of a dowel in sitting for silence. He also demonstrated a pass for opening ourselves up for things. https://sustainedaction.org/notes/cleargreen-night-sessions/part-ix/

Wow, just read the new update about the missing witches, calling Florinda a complete fraud and Castaneda a cult. The website seems to be aimed at delivering a harsh blow to the community. It seems like the author is about to bring out his very own book regarding all this. Pretty morbid.
And it's funny, because the books do work. Even "listening to the sounds of the world" is perfectly valid. It is possible to view holes, just like the book says, and to be exposed to allies as well through that practice.
You just need silence... and willingness to practice.
Yeah, now op also has on his sub " applying Castaneda's listening techniques", whilst he seems totally geared on exposing CC as a fraud. It would be interesting to see who buddies up with him " for old times sake", just to filter out some crap maybe, but maybe I' m being too loud here.
Yep! Applying Castaneda's listening techniques literally causes magic to happen, not help with business dealings. Having access to the notes is neat, and if he wants to be a filter, it's his prerogative.
the technique with the fists seems interesting, but I wish there was a video on how exactly it is done!
all the rest are written in Amy’s book anyway
Carol’s eye and the silence stick are also posted here on reddit
I'll make one.
But find the passages for me in that lecture note.
I don't read things like that, nor the books of Carlos or the witches, unless absolutely necessary to answer a question.
Maybe you could find the description and post it, and I'll cartoon it.
Here's a start.
I could include other techniques for silence.
Mentions…
MOVEMENT
INSTRUCTION-PASS
TO OPEN UP TO
SOMETHING AND PASS FOR GALL BLADDER
After the period of silence, he showed us a movement with the fists: the left fist below the belly button and the right fist placed at the solar plexus. You circle the fists around the belly button. “This can be used to open yourself to something you really want to experience, or to close yourself, so as not to take in something.”
The last movement he showed was a slight movement upward with the right shoulder, up and down, very lightly.
I'm afraid I never saw it.
That doesn't mean I can't "remember it".
Oddly, I do!
But since I never saw it myself, I couldn't animate it.
Maybe darkwarrior will take up animations once AIs do all the work for you, and can follow instructions.
Currently they can't. They make "something", but if you want precisely what you asked for and they were never trained on our kind of bizarre magic, they're unable to find the right bits and pieces in their gigantic memory.
