Combine that with finding your spot, and it’s obvious Don Juan taught him enough to go all the way very early on. Essentially, the books prove themselves to anyone who seriously gives it a try. But it’s so hard to take it seriously enough to risk the effort needed.

For example, how many of us actually tried long enough to see colors in the dirt with “finding your sitio”? If someone did that and got interested in why you can see those colors, eventually they would have discovered they get brighter with silence. And they would have evolved into a view of another world on the ground. With remote viewing or other world viewing. Other world viewing inevitably leads to inorganic being worlds.

They’d end up a little confused without more instruction, but they’d be a genuine powerful “dirt wizard”!

It’s kinda funny, this is from one of the only books that Carlos dates the events.
It was about 30 years now I first picked up this book which wasn’t my first Carlos adventure but this one had a significant impact on me at the time.

This was because of the dates he used, one of them happened to be my birthday. At the time I was really into finding agreements in the world and I took it as an omen.
A serious omen considering the only two events which happened on Oct 3, 1968 that I know about were, I was born and the chapter Carlos attributed to that day.
It’s a fantastic chapter and I re read it every year.

What's "the darkness of day?"

Having studied the bible under Carlos' instructions, and cultures mentioned that weren't fully covered there, I might say that we can never know that.

It might be some weird sorcerer's view of light and dark. Darkroom gazing leads to such abstract concepts.

But it could also just be traditions in a time and place we don't know about.

For example, in some cultures of the old testament the next day started at sundown.

Which made fasting for a day a lot less impressive...

Some back then also counted ages from the moment of conception, not the moment of birth.

Since don Juan was very practical I'd take it at face value as night-time, verses anything allegorical.

Or in the dark if it's being created artificially at another time of day.
