Warrior's path: personal power, support and resistance levels

Typically when someone fixates on the idea of a "warrior", as you have, it means they are involved in mental masturbation.

No magic. So they have to make believe some fake magic, from what they understand about the books.

There are currently no actual warriors in the Castaneda community, because you can't possibly be one until you have some magic going on.

That's true even of Carlos, when don Juan was drilling him on all the "impeccable warrior" stuff in the early books.

People ignore that little detail. Don Juan was doing the "real teaching" by pushing him into heightened awareness, and interacting with him there.

That's what we're trying to do in here, but you don't seem to have noticed.

The whole "warriors" way was a lesson in the Olmec sorcery Guild members sense of ethics, which was suitable to convince him not to indulge too much, and at least pay attention to his behavior.

And not even much of a goal. The "Men of Knowledge" could not see.

Our goal is NOT to be men of knowledge, but instead, just like the old seers, until the very last minute.

They were 100% magic.

The "men of knowledge" were likely trouble makers that the old seers put to the side and gave certificates to, so they had a place to exist without being a threat to the old seers.

For those that were a threat, the old seers had sharp little knives, and taught their IOBs to frighten people to death.

The "Men of Knowledge" learned some rituals that summon intent, but didn't understand them very well.

The "warrior's way" was not a path of any sort. It was an "alternative point of view", so that Carlos could see the in-between, where seeing takes place.

The warrior's way would never work.

It HAS never worked. All students of Carlos, all workshop participants, failed to learn any actual sorcery.

At this point, the reputation of Carlos is in the toilet, because no one learned actual magic.

The "warrior" thing was just a trick by don Juan, to preserve all the hard work they were doing behind the scenes. Teaching Carlos, without his knowledge.

Without that, nothing would have come from it.

There's a quote somewhere in the books that people bring up, when they hear my contrary point of view, but they always ignore one word in the sentence.

It's something like, "Being impeccable is almost enough to go all the way."

Almost...

That's what they don't read.

Obsessing over the pretend stuff is killing the teachings of don Juan.

So that people can get attention for themselves, as being "wise".

As you did. You even ended your first post with a promise of even more "advanced" knowledge.

Of which you had almost none.

Your behavior is exactly the opposite of the "warriors way".

You've "book dealed" yourself into a mental corner.

And haven't noticed the magic you are surrounded by in here.

When someone starts posting without looking around in here, and then saying, "Holy Shit!!! You mean it works??? How can I get in on this?"

It never ends well. Did you read the "bad players" post?

You're the classic "teacher" bad player type.

My guess: you'll never learn sorcery, because you don't really want to.

You want attention.

That's fine in the /r/toltec subreddit. Why not go post over there?

There's a second one, where you can also speculate.

In here, it's harmful to the new people.

They don't understand why I kick some people's ass, and why I don't others.

When of course it's obvious, and easy to understand.

But they don't.

Some are on the fence, considering if they really want to put in hard work.

When they see someone else prancing around in clown pants, they occasionally say, "Yea, who's to say his point of view is better than the other guys???"

And then if that took over, I'd have to go somewhere else to teach.

Putting the teachings at risk of loss.

Except for people in here who put in the work and now understand the real thing, versus pretending. I'm not really needed here anymore.

But you'd interfere with them just as much.

Ask yourself, are you going to keep pretending like this?

If so, please go away.

I think you are confused about sorcery, and you completly ignored what is going on here.

What's this, an exercise of reason?

I'd take the time to try to rate every single thing that doesn't make sense in this post, but you'll probably ignore it like the comments on yesterday's post.

I'm going to mark this post as Spoiler, because it has nothing to do with the purpose of this subreddit.

Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with that, and people can still read it.

But if you read around here you will realize on your own what's wrong with Inventory Experts.
