Here's three in one.
It's Redeploying Energy to the center of sustained action, Life Saver Pass, and Lujan's long form.
Two of these I trust fully. Laura from private classes is doing them.
One has complaints some parts are wrong.
But we've gotten to the point that there's very few left I can animate, which don't have potential inaccuracies.
We've lost perhaps half of the 400 tensegrity movements Carlos gave us!
It doesn't help that just about EVERYTHING coming from the three versions of cleargreen, is corrupted.
They're even saying the old passes don't work anymore, so you have to pay them to learn the made up ones they're selling.
It's a TERRIBLE situation. If any of you paid to get a facilitator's license, I have to honestly tell you, no one will trust what you learned, if they're paying any attention.
You were taught made up ideas, and fake magical forms.
For a huge amount of money from what I've heard. You made the classic mistake and decided to become a "teacher", instead of actually learning this magic.
That happens to all fake magic cults as they age. The Guru starts selling certifications, since people eventually realize his techniques don't produce results worth learning.
Even the very simple "Life Saver Pass" is done wrong every single place you look, other than with Laura.
And that's the one pass Carlos said you should do, if you do no others.
It seems to extend lifespan. But you have to avoid twisting at the waist as much as possible, and slap the soft part of the outside of the shoulder.
Look around. You won't find anyone doing it correctly!
Reni is even claiming it's some kind of chi gung delusion, saying you can tap your liver too.
Because she was BUSTED in that video of her and Nyei doing it completely wrong. Instead of coming clean, she just doubled down.
Greed buries real magic. It's a simple fact of modern mankind.
So help us preserve real magic? Learn REAL tensegrity, shun the fake stuff, and follow the instructions Carlos left us.
And one day, we'll time travel back and recover the missing passes. That's totally possible!

You should probably tap the center of the soft spot on the shoulder, rather than the edge. I'll fix that myself, when I use this animation in Dance Home, and add the magic it produces.
You REALLY need to see what the passes do, once you can "see"!
You can't imagine.
It's strange that people try to defend other "magical systems", which pretty much do nothing at all you can't get by easier methods that are free and don't feed you religious delusions.
That is, your realize how strange it is that people defend them, once you can see what Tensegrity actually does.
A rough analogy is to be standing in the middle of Disneyland, looking at all the glory, while someone commenting in this sub is claiming some random carnival in an old soviet era park in Russia, is just as good.
The visual contrast is that obvious!
I always tapped the shoulder with the knuckle of my thumb. should instead the fingertips tap the soft part of the shoulder right under its edge?
Yea, it's strange how that magical pass is being done wrong everywhere.
As best I can figure, Howard taught the classical asian morning exercises warm up move that's a bit like that.
Lots of martial arts have it. Aikido for example.
But it's not the same at all.
In the asian version, you twist the waste fully, and your arms fling behind your back.
In this one, the theory is that you don't twist the hips and that helps close your "gap".
If you can close your gap, you can live longer.
I don't know why you tap the shoulder, but the results are very visible as big sparks of yellow light when you strike it.
It's quite amazing.
Supposedly Kylie is the who who explained that it "closes your gap", at a workshop.
I sure wish someone could find that in Techno's compiled workshop notes.
Jadey is reluctant to say that's what it's for.
Carlos didn't, when he taught us in private classes. He just said to do it everyday.
"I sure wish someone could find that in Techno's compiled workshop notes."
i searched the "Castaneda Compendium - All Books, Notes & Periodicals.pdf" (v1.0) and there are just 4 occurrences of "life saver" or "lifesaver", but no explanations. i also searched for "puppies" and "barrel" as the pass also goes under the name "Puppies in a Barrel Magical Pass".
the best i've found is the memory of somebody who attended a workshop and wrote about it in a comment here in the sub:
https://www.reddit.com/r/castaneda/comments/1jwuabe/comment/mmq0i0q/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
It's also described in Carmina Fort's " Conversations with Carlos Castaneda"
In a natural manner, he went from the abstract to the useful, and offered to show me an
exercise for counteracting tiredness and regain energy: he got up, and with the legs
slightly spread and bent, the waist relaxed and the arms hanging down, he swung them
several times from one side to the other of the body without twisting the waist; the
exercise rejuvenates the suprarenal glands above the kidneys, he explained, and has an
immediate effect. To continue he enticed me to imitate him to be sure that I could do it
myself; I got up and followed his instructions and for a few minutes we dedicated
ourselves to "recharging the batteries". It is a very similar movement that children do at
times when they appear bored; a game they do with their body where maybe they
intuitively grasp key knowledge that we have forgotten about upon growing up.
The living room that we were in was getting dark; from which one could see the Pacific, ...
I waited at the airport for 2 hours for Cholita, and noticed that the adults were all immobile, gazing at their electronic devices.
The kids were moving around, dancing, running, spinning.
They never stood still if they weren't immobilized in a stroller or by being held by an adult.
I tried copying them, and immediately realized adults aren't allowed to behave like that.
I've learned a couple of the passes, the ones for Dreaming and Recapitulation, the Seer's Window, Zuleica's pass, and the lifesaver pass
A strange thing happened to me when I started locking in on Zuleica's pass, my hands would start making movements of their own. I could never continue the pass the way it's shown in the videos for more than 5 minutes.
What would happen is I'd start doing parts of the other passes (involuntarily, like it would just happen, I wouldn't consciously pick them) and the moves would be ever so slightly altered. Like the "Reaching the energy hole above the head" movement, I think they have flat hands when they're doing the upwards movements, whereas my fists would be closed.
Also, I'd have new movements happen to me. Yesterday I was crouching like in the recapitulation passes but my head was shaking from side-to-side and my arms were outstretched, palms facing up, and they were shaking too. This kinda thing just happens to me. I have awful trouble shutting off my internal dialogue too, I remember one time my hands just closed into fists and my thumbs started pressing hard on my fingers. It really stopped me thinking.
It's the weirdest thing ever, so I've no doubt there's loads of tensegrity moves that are not recorded.
It's ok to modify the passes for yourself, but not ok to teach those to others.
My favorite long form was designed by my Ally "Fancy", from individual movements Carlos taught in private classes.
Little did I know, she was designing it to maximize the energy she got from hanging out while I was doing it.
But that meant, it produces far more visible magic than usual.
I literally end up with my arms on fire with purple flames after doing it correctly.
Sounds class.
Thanks for all your hard work on this forum, I was wrong about you, you are are the real deal. In my opinion, there's nothing worse than a lazy sorcerer, but you are the furthest thing from that. You have my undying respect and I apologize for criticizing you in the past, I didn't understand how right you were. 🙏
Who is Laura?
Jadey (her ID in here). The most famous private class student of all because she was video taped talking to Carlos, outside Dance Home. Otherwise, the bad guys out there will claim none of us are private class students, if they're following some fake Nagual and resent anyone claiming this sorcery actually works.
They just like to pretend to be impeccably warriors, and repeat facts they learned from the first 3 books. Ignoring the other 17.
danl999, are you interested in animating the Masculinity series? If so , Im not sure how to get it to you, or some one else, but Im sure its doable. I have it done , it replicates whats in the book "Magical Passes", pretty good.
Sure! I'm out of work for my animators in Pakistan to do.
They're feeling bad about it.
These are what I had, but i've been told they aren't fully correct.
I don't know what's up with the sticks... I sure don't remember that!

You can give me videos by using this place:
https://streamable.com/
Or put yours on archive.org
I don't know about those sticks either, haven't seen mention of them in "Magical Passes", and the instuctional photos in there ,only show hands,.. no sticks!
I sent one video via streamable
You have to give me the link. It's created when you upload it. In fact, it's so cool, you can grab the link before it finishes uploading!
I suspect the sticks are a con job by one of the Cleargreens. Or maybe all of them.
There was a form or two using the sticks, so they decided they could create new things to sell, by applying it to other forms.
https://streamable.com/mbfii8
They claim they aren't finished yet...
But there's lots of problems on the internet today, due to Amazon servers rented by many.
And Amazon couldn't bring up my purchase history.
Looks good to me.
But I gave Jadey's to my animators more than a week ago.
Are you going to post it somewhere more permanent? There aren't any other good versions I know of.
Maybe you can just upload it here?
If there's any errors, someone will point them out.
But when used with the book, all you really need is someone doing them in sequence, and you can read the text if you want to double check it.
The other versions on the web use sticks, which someone just made up at once point.
No one will tell me who did that...
Maybe the sound the sticks make does "something", if your'e in good silence while doing those passes. I don't know myself, as I havent used sticks, and I'm yet to maintain good silence while doing most passes. Using the book to fine tune the video movements works the best for me, hard to go wrong when its straight from Carlos!. I know it took me a long time to get it to you partIy because I couldnt figure it out, but it was actually so damn easy! ,.. and I wanted to send the full version, the entire series, but it was to long, or big for streamables. The only other one I have is what you got. Maybe it will go here , if I figure that out.
Carlos never said such a thing, and there's no one in any of the Cleargreens at a level to "see" that. If there was, they wouldn't behave so badly.
We often examine their press releases in advanced chat.
Money is what they're after, and they don't care how much damage they do to our community, while getting that money.
Cleargreen has press releases? Id like to see those, for whats going on with them.
Ask in chat. Once in a while someone grabs one, and it's so horrible they show it to others.
Miles too.
People won't be able to do that on Reddit by the end of the month.
The Discord Server will then be all that's available, as I think it would be confusing to have a Discord Server as well as a Telegram group.
But maybe we should take a vote and see how many people use, or would want to use, either platform.
Reddit is abandoning their chat channels functionality, leaving only small chat groups of less than 100 possible.
Or there's no ads in chat.
So it's not where they want you doing your commenting to each other?
