Can the AP be brought closer to the point of reason? What is the method?How long does it take? Don Juan says that this way we can become a good thinker. Our IQ score will probably increase, and if it is placed exactly at the point of reason, we will probably become like Einstein. I want to fix the AP at that point. After doing this, I will start moving along the j curve.

It tells you it in the books:
The position of reason was clearly seen from the position of silent knowledge. You are going exactly the wrong way, you should be aiming for silent knowledge, so move through the j-curve.
"The nagual Elias assured don Juan that only a human being who was a paragon of reason could move his assemblage point easily and be a paragon of silent knowledge. He said that only those who were squarely in either position could see the other position clearly, and that that had been the way the age of reason came to being. The position of reason was clearly seen from the position of silent knowledge"
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.
