Short update...

I have been gone for a while, this because a lot of things had happened and I needed some time to integrate before using language in an attempt to describe everything. In this post, I will limit myself to what could be of value to other readers.

Please understand, I am in no way any type of 'authority'; my archetype is one of a 'student' and I do no think that this will change. There simply so much to learn even now. And we all have so much more potential which could be unlocked through practice and inner work. For me, this is still just the 'beginning'.

To make a long story short, during the last years, I have made the practices part of my life, this with varying success. Well, I tried what I could, this with the means available to me / with the level of consciousness I had back then.
However, to make a long story short, my path got really "turbo-charged" this year when I (and I cannot believe that I am writing this here) actually encountered a real-life sorcerer and also spend time with that person, this over weeks and months.

To be honest, it feels to me as if that was the "actual" start of my development; for example, while I had read about "impeccability" over years, I only really understood it by observing someone actually living like that, and this in front of my own eyes, in this reality (reg. that particular topic, it looks to me as if the person living with true impeccability lives among people of ignorance but 'sticks to his way of living', which is fascinating on its own and probably would have required a separate paragraph here).

And of course, this was just the start.
All I would like to say is; yes, it is ALL real, because if that other person knows (not just believes) that these things are real, this changes the game (also for your own perception).
Yes, even "physical laws" can be overcome; Carlos was not joking when he described Don Genaro jumping from mountain top to mountain top etc. But I better stop here, many people here know that already (for me it was / still is mind-blowing though!).

Anyways, allow me to take a step back.

There is no doubt in my mind that all that happened was "in response" to my practices, which maybe showed 'Spirit' that I am serious about it. Maybe Spirit "responded" by sending me some guidance "in flesh". Most likely, in my personal case, I really needed that.

To be honest, looking at it now; trying to "learn sorcery" on my own was quite a long shot.
Maybe my 'thick' head needed someone "in flesh" to guide and show more, this via 'direct experience'.
At least to really enforce many things I only scratched the surface off before.
And further, once you have experienced certain things, there is no way back...

I now feel ready to again do practices on my own, this time with the benefit of having been supported by the energy and abilities of that guide. And, after a phase of that work, my intent will be directed at the next phase...

Anyways, I feel that the following could be relevant:

While proper sorcerers / benefactors are a very tiny percentage of the overall population; my estimation is that for most people reading here, there will be one sorcerer within a 500k radius or so. Now, that does not mean that it is the one who "fits" you / your energy. But what I am trying to say is; they ARE there. There are also many lineages.

There is no doubt; if you are serious about this, Spirit will respond to you; this even against all odds.
This also in the appropriate manner, on a case-by-case basis.
Probably, one cannot go out there and "look for them", things just do not work that way.

Note;
next to Don Juan, Carlos also had his "benefactor", Don Genaro. I am convinced that both of these aspects are needed; this also for balance. Don Juan took care of Carlos's tonal, Don Genaro exposed Carlos to the nagual.

Over this recent period in my life, I tried to make notes, but it is not an easy task. Also, I believe that this phase has completed its current chapter. If I direct my intent at it, I know that the next phase can follow, most likely it is my own choice.

I could write about many other topics, but somehow I feel that I should not do so at length, certainly not at the moment.
Yes, there are many, other worlds.
Yes, we come from infinity and we will go back there one day.
Yes, we are able to visit other worlds.
There is no limit to the things possible.
Etc.

It fascinates me that Carlos was able to put all his experiences in writing and even made the content approachable. What a task! That was no joke. I guess Don Juan chose him well for ending the lineage and for 'opening the doors' to sorcery knowledge. It also makes sense that him and Don Genaro had a blast making fun of Carlos and his note book. And further they must have known that "society" will never understand the content of that writing. 
How funny that most people thought the books were all "science fiction"; it is just so far away from the "normal" position of society's assemblage point, that one simply cannot understand all that from a "cognitive" perspective.

I am very grateful that spirit was so generous to me. And I feel that it is just the very beginning.
I am in the process of designing my life to allow more growth to occur.

All I can do for now is to wish you all the very best individually; and also to encourage you on your respective paths; because it is all real. And everything you do is seen by Spirit.

All the best.

The stated purpose of this subreddit is to aid in restoring the reputation of Carlos Castaneda and the knowledge he imparted, by pragmatically applying that knowledge IN PRACTICE. This means that we are sticking to what really works, as proven by direct experience by long-practicing members. We need to make clear our intent to move away, as a community, from the mistakes others have made. Content that is at-odds with this purpose will, upon review, be removed.

Man...

You have been here in the past. Why do you come back like that?

First, you claim to find a sorcerer, wich none of us found in the net in the last 5 years except in this subreddit.

In case you want to present such thing, just put the link so we can check.

Then, you make too early conclusions based on your suppoused meeting. Like that two benefactors are needed for a balanced learning.

Don't you remember that this subreddit accepts that there are no longer benefactors or lineages, and that we make the whole effort ourselves?

What about your claims of "yes, it was all true", but without giving any detail of what you did and how?

The whole thing seems to me like mental fantasizing.

You have been banned once. If you want to come back don't become a headache again.

Wtf is this guy talking about lmao.

Also, 500km radius, there will be 1 sourcerer? 🤣🤣🤣

I would say there is like 100-200 on the entire planet earth. Of course if you don't consider seeing iob as a sourcerer
