When I post pictures of our real magic, I often get even more of it.
The reason is the very same as the reason this not-doing works!
But you'll have to discover that for yourself.
Those "emanations" really do exist, and it's possible to add awareness to those which are rarely used, and make them easier to perceive.
In fact, we're merely trapped in a range of the emanations that all of humanity has evolved to perceive.
Making it close to impossible to look in any other direction.
That's what produced the "Tonal/Nagual" divide.
Something you can partially overcome by learning to stop your internal dialogue.
I suppose, you can't fully overcome it until you leave this physical container and become what Carlos called a "specialized form of inorganic being".
You can use "seeing" (aka silent knowledge) to try out other techniques, which seem a bit far-fetched until you realize they actually work.
Such as pressing on the crown of the head. Or grabbing your sides and pinching, just under your armpits.
You can do it, and see what happens!!!
But that's not useful to beginners, because pretty much nothing is going to happen until you can reach silent knowledge.
Might be some subtle effect, but that won't keep a beginner going.
It's much more convincing when you can see a drastic effect, while doing the technique.
Now I'm wondering if we can't duplicate even the shroom based techniques from the early books, but without the shrooms.
Maybe the techniques in the early books aren't off our list afterall.
Such as the one where you make a spooky sound in the woods, and wait for the response.
I'll see if "NotebookLM" can find it for me. If I do, I'll put it here.

i have spotted 2 typos in the picture: vacinity vs vicinity, exageration vs exaggeration
I should have had the AI look at it. It can actually read the text!
It claims vacinity is correct but rarer than vicinity.
I'll fix both of those.
