Taking advantage of Dan's recent post mentioning my Youtube channel (https://youtube.com/@sorcerypasses ), I'd like to invite you to an online weekly tensegrity class. I am calling it a class rather than a practice because I will, at least in the beginning, explain the basics and talk through the passes.
I'll do it on Saturdays, 4pm Argentinian time (11am PST), starting on February 22, via Meet (https://meet.google.com/xpj-fiub-zud ) and YouTube Live. It will be given in English, I hope you don't mind my Spanish accent :-)
That time has been chosen so that people in Europe can attend at a more reasonable night time.

I added the meet link, it will stay the same for the moment.
Awesome. :)
If there's an emphasis on making it actually work through silence, what you're doing has never been done before.
Cleargreen only emphasizes pretending, and not having to do anything that might cost them customers because it's too much work. They'd never dare to teach that Tensegrity isn't merely weird chi gung, which is "good for you" even if you're too lazy to get it to work.
They have to keep every person they can around, even the ones that are bad for others.
So they make all sorts of soothing promises which are absolutely counter to real sorcery.
If you have a real tensegrity class, "something" might actually happen from the energetic mass.
Carlos surely thought it could, and we were right on the verge a few times. He told us so.
But he couldn't afford to emphasize the need for continuous hard work the way we can, because he didn't have an endless stream of new people.
And he didn't have a substantial group of people who had proven it works, so that others can see they aren't risking anything to take it seriously.
In fact, he had the opposite.
Classes were filled with people claiming he'd lost his mind and it was all made up, or stolen from other systems (or even Howard).
Carlos had "negative energetic mass" at the end.
Here's something that happens when you've been doing Tensegrity in Silent Knowledge for a few months.
I think the women might be able to "notice" this sooner than I did.
The picture gives the wrong impression, without actually being wrong.
You have to be looking far "sideways" to see your double copying your Tensegrity, and almost surely in Silent Knowledge.
But it does. Maybe it's nearly always does.
Once you realize it's "right there", you can also see how to switch over to it.
Not that you can do it. Just that you can see it's possible by "moving sideways into it".
This pic got me laughing ... I'm excited to see my double doing tensegrity with me. What fun!!!
The classes on the channel are great - in Spanish though. Have followed the daily or almost daily classes some weeks through the YT postings, not live as that is in the middle of the night here in Norway. If you sub to the channel the classes will come up in YT notifications, seems the videos are otherwise unmarked.
Yaaaay! I’m a long time lurker and I was hoping you would do this. I’m glad that day has come. Thank you!
Same! I'll see you there friend 😎
Yes please!
Will you be recording the session for those of that cannot attend due to schedule conflicts?
Yes, it'll get recorded.
Wow! So generous and awesome!
Bravooooo!!!
This is so cool! Catch you all on the 22nd. Thanks ! 💫
Amazing! Thank you so much. The two of you look fierce in that pic.
thank you!!!! that’s great. i will attend, but i just can‘t be live there on the first class on 22.2. the following saturdays won‘t be a problem.
Wow, that sounds amazing! Will you start with The Series for Preparing Intent, or with some other series?

In the class in the pic they sure did not make it easy for themselves - they did left and right body passes, last group of heat series. If done the way it was shown in workshops (apparently, that was before I did any tensegrity) they are sort of very fluid/continous and involve waving hand/arm about in a way that is quite difficult to do together with any precision. I prefer to do it the way I taught myself from the book, one pass at a time.
Hi, thanks! We will probably start with some other series or individual passes that illustrate what we will explaining.
Hello. I am very new to all of this and only stumbled here by seeing something interesting in the channel ( https://www.reddit.com/r/castaneda/comments/1im8gf6/first_attempt_at_purple_zone/) reminded me of autogogia that I have been deep diving into.
I learned I have aphantasia recently and was attempting to learn to visualize using that method from the r/cureaphantasia sub.
Can anyone here tell me if I am correct in believing this is actually very similar? Or might even be part of the same system? It all seems and feels a bit like it might possibly be related to the blind sight I have read about with children? They often describe a window or screen of sorts. I don't know if in order to practice this I actually need to be able to fully visualize or not..
We are trying to expand our perception, not expand our imagination. So no, it doesn't have anything to do with visualizing anything in our minds.
Okay thanks for the explanation
Hi , that’s fantastic you’re doing a live stream of classes and group practice. Did you ever have a connection to Cleargreen to learn their content or is everything you teach from other sources. Thx
Finally it is saturday ☺️
BIG Thank you for the fantastic class today !!!!
Awesome, thank you!
I just participated in the first class a couple of hours ago, (Feb 22) and from my standpoint it was a resounding success. The takeaway is that I have an unusual amount of energy and feel great! My feet especially feel good and I can pull that energy all the way up if I choose.
Also there is a closeness I feel with Jadey, her husband (partner), and the group that consolidated, formed, solidified. Warmth. Affection for the group.
I look forward to seeing how it evolves......
Thanks Jadey!
Thank you! I am very happy to hear that.
We all know this is a solitary path but I feel that the group of practitioners is gaining purpose and momentum, and that we can achieve more than we all could alone. The time to achieve that energetic mass Castaneda was looking for is now. Happy to have you on board!
The classes on the same YT channel in Spanish are also highly recommended. I speak Spanish but you can also
set subtexting to English. I'm trying it now and it works well. Doing this now from a couple days back this starts with tensegrity video 1 passes, 12 Basic Movements to Gather Energy, an important/much used series of passes.
Over here I will add the links for the classes that have been done so far and every week after the end of each class I will add the link so reddit people can find it.
Tensegrity Basics and recapitulation series
Life Saver pass, The Heat Series- Separating the Left from the Right Body-First group, reviewing the Recapitulation Series

For now, the first session is uploaded, and the rest will be uploaded gradually.
i made a file with yt-links to all the live sessions from jadey's channel (starting 2024-10-12). it is work in progress and it will change overtime.
i used a french google doc alternative. let's see how good that will work.
https://cryptpad.fr/doc/#/2/doc/view/plP3bjzpXyx3nH9kKxxV6H-cK+t2gtIcv6l1SSRquS4/
i will put the download links to the subtitles in this comment.
the subtitles were made with the riverside transcription service and are better than the youtube subtitles. the riverside subtitles are not perfect, but imho they are good for 2 things:
- to get searchable textfiles
- as a starting point to create handmade subtitles - easier than starting from scratch
in the folder are the subtitles i got from youtube with yt-dlp (es/en/de) and in the "riverside transcription" subfolder there is the riverside subtitle file (*.riverside-es.srt) and 2 translations (*.riverside-es-google-en or *.riverside-es-google-de). for convenience there are also files with .txt ending.

for me that means instead of 20h it will be 21h (timezone gmt+1, german time).
just type into google time in argentina now and count on your fingers ;)
I wanted to rewatch the first saturday but can‘t find it. Were the videos saved? Thank you :)

Can't find the video on youtube from yesterday's class on The Series for The Womb. Anyone has it? Great classes btw!
Hi! the one with the womb series is here:
I joined your live class for me tonight (Amsterdam time area). Enjoined It and Looking forward to New ones.
FYI: Today’s class will probably be canceled due to me not being able to get home on time.
