Hiding sorcery behind buddhism

I wanted to share my own stalking practice, which I find extremely funny. I have a partner, and I realized that sorcery or shamanism really scares her and it's too weird to accept (just sharing that I was reading CC produced disapproving looks).
So, as the Old Seers hid amongst the ranks of the Catholics, I'm hiding in the ranks of buddhism 🤣
And so far it's working perfectly!
Let me explain. Whenever I want to practice darkroom, I tell my partner that I'm going to "meditate" in the wardrobe, because it is a "Buddhist technique" to meditate in absolute darkness.
Recapitulating with the sweeping breathing it's another "yoga breathing technique". And so on. Basically for her I'm a very serious Buddhist 😂
It looks like people can't accept sorcery or shamanism, but they're totally fine with meditation, buddhism and new-age spirituality.
This thing I do allows me to practice, while stalking, while laughing my ass off 🤣
Thought it would be funny to share

Yay!!!

Revenge at last.

I need to convince Cholita to take the form of the Buddha, when she's in her double.

That might be amusing.

On facebook someone saw the moth video and suggested I put some real moths in the cartoons.

So likely Cholita is going to shapeshift as Westerly Witch and become "the pink moth".

Including a Zuleica copy of herself, at her current age.

I've seen Cholita's age vary by 30 years in her double.

She seems to be aware of doing it just to mess with my head.

The 20 something copy I saw last was wearing a tutu like Cindy Lauper had back in the day.

I guess that sorcery can be fun sometimes! 😁

Cholita has endless fun at my expense.

Search Eagle's Gift for "Zuleica" and find where she's asking how Carlos can be a Nagual, if he's never seen a vagina?

Just to protect myself, I keep this photo on my cell phone to show Cholita proof, I had all the chances to see vaginas I wanted and got over it. Turned them down in favor of better interactions with women.

That's the double woman I found in the middle. And one imported from Taiwan to play with her and see what happens.

Didn't work out so I ended up here.

Yes, I remember the passage with Zuleica. Super funny!

Cholita is far nastier.

She could make Zuleica blush.

and of course it didn't work out. what young woman would give up the fabulous river of shit to grub around in a cold dirt tunnel with IOBs? just because dan is rich? never enough.

I will always be on Cholita's side, lol.

u/danl999 6 points 2022-12-01 23:47

I had to try. There were 0 people anywhere who had made the sorcery of Carlos work.

In fact it was widely assumed, seemingly inside cleargreen too, that he made it all up.

Plus I had Little Smoke and Devil's Weed threatening me.

I'm not sure even they knew what would be a good way to try to create some actual sorcerers.

When it failed because all the young women I'd gathered decided they needed to get serious about finding a husband, someone pointed me here.

u/infinite_unity01 2 points 2022-12-07 16:13

Is there some reason that old women work better than young women when it comes to dark energy and sorcery?

Sorcerers are better than witches because they have control, memory, awareness. I generally think that sorcerers have balanced their best masculine traits with their best feminine traits so that they embody both genders.

What kind of training would make Cholita aware and therefore a better sorcerer? You wrote somewhere that she did a lot of tensegrity, but never any recapitulation so is that the basic problem? Am I missing something?

u/danl999 4 points 2022-12-07 16:24

> Is there some reason that old women work better

I hadn't noticed that.

Might be true.

Cholita attacked me last night.

As a result, I saw a "bundle of emanations" as clear as you could see a big "dust bunny" under your bed, if you shined a nice flashlight on it.

It was the energy from Cholita's attack.

I see the emanations nightly.

But not "in focus" like that.

It was Cholita's dark energy.

Sorcery is very weird. We only deal with it in here on a very superficial level.

And even that's more than beginners can handle. They always want to change it into something else, that's easier to use to steal attention from others.

> What kind of training would make Cholita aware and therefore a better sorcerer?

There's no way to find out. She wouldn't even allow a sentence forming that question, to get past the middle words.

And if I said she didn't do recapitulation, I was in error.

It's right up her alley.

And she has an understanding of it she could only have gotten directly from Florinda.

Surprised me even.

And if I said she didn't do recapitulation, I was in error.

I may have just interpreted it wrong. If Cholita has done this, then memory isn't her problem. I also think all of her emotional output causes waves of emanations that must make your darkroom amazing. Maybe she doesn't need fixing.

Wait... has Cholita ever stalked herself? I have this theory that stalking creates this shape in the emanations that is like a cup or a nest. spirit has shown me that nest shape and I am trying to place it... if you build a nest you can filter out the bad players and attackers... stalking yourself first will help separate what you want from a sea of identities. Cholita maybe sees everything as the sea of emanations instead of separate ?

u/danl999 3 points 2022-12-07 18:03

She won't talk to me at all, except to complain and attack.

There's no way to ask her a question.

Last night I tried to find out if she remembers levitating objects, visiting in her double and running around the world playing hide and seek, materializing zombies, or even bringing Minx to meet me the first time.

She just blinked and stared.

Went catatonic after that, for a minute or two.

Then told me she was getting out of this place in a few weeks.

"You'll see!", she added.

But she's done that several times before.

She was bundled up like an eskimo, and it was cold out. I have no idea where she had been. Not in the house.

Wherever she goes when she finds a new place to stay, she gets tossed out again.

If she went to Soledad or Beningo themselves, I'm pretty sure she'd get tossed out in no more than a month.

Seeing as how she has a place to stay without them.

Once in a while, someone gives her an "attitude adjustment" by phone.

But I don't know who.

Could be, she's 100% punking me.

Why are you fixated on her remembering things exactly the way that you do? I doubt that will ever happen. Remember that anecdote where Carlos saw monsters and La Gorda saw Mexican rapists? She is far more likely to remember feelings rather than specifics. Like a spider, I guess.

So you have no motivation to make progress because the crazier Cholita is-- the greater the bundle of emanations left for you to have cool dark room experiences? No wonder she wants to leave.

This begs the question-- How or what do we feed IOBs, once we aren't scared of them anymore? Once we are sick of being emotionally freaked out all the time. What else do they eat besides fear and anger? They certainly don't feast on happiness.

Should we just let the IOBS starve and then make it to the end of the J curve?

Should we create magic rituals that involve some sort of food substance offering?

Should we collect more yellow puffs and rub them on the right spots in order to create more tonal involvement?

Frustration isn't going to get you anywhere.

You can't throw a tantrum, to learn sorcery.

Works with other educational systems or magic subreddits.

But not here.

Blackmail is not effort.

u/TechnoMagical_Intent 5 points 2022-12-08 16:49

They feast on attention/awareness (aka energy, as it's termed in the books). On our reactions; primarily on strong emotions...which can be ANY emotion!

u/danl999 3 points 2022-12-07 16:43

Maybe Carlos tried to make the young women more like older women, by cutting their hair so short, they no longer attracted endless male attention.

Cholita couldn't walk down the street without getting whistles before her hair was cut.

She was able to travel to any city in the world, and find a man to take care of her on a moment's notice.

Afterwards as she put it, "What do they think I am now?!?? A lesbian?"

Then she'd add, "You don't think I'm a lesbian do you?"

I had to restrain myself from thinking about the answer to that question too much.

If I'd said, "I can wish can't I?", it wouldn't have gone well.

My oldest niece once brought her 2 lesbian college student friends to Christmas.

One a little blond dressed punkish, and the other a lolita goth asian girl.

We watched them make out on the couch during "White Christmas" with Bing Crosby, while my niece explained that Vera had to wear that high collar because she was so anorexic that she looked like a skeleton.

My brother said, "Don't you just love christmas?"

I will always be on Cholita's side, lol.

She almost always gets people on her side. For a while.

I thought of a funny story on the way home, after I'd already answered you.

But it illustrates how wonderful it is to have Cholita around.

I didn't realize at first that Cholita had lost her mind. I'm not sure how long ago that was, but years.

She wasn't as bad back then as now.

She ended up homeless because her husband tossed her out, and I took her in.

And helped her get a job.

But she got steadily worse, and at one point it was obvious she would lose that job. She kept accusing her co-workers of leaving secret messages on her desk, threatening her.

I went to pick her up at Fashion Island, where the Whole Foods is that she worked at.

But she wasn't where she told me she'd be.

Looking around, I saw 3 security guards coming towards me, with Cholita pointing her finger and explaining something to them.

They suddenly pulled out their guns and pointed them at me.

Cholita had convinced them I was a kidnapper, and this was her first chance to escape. And insisted they needed to call the police, and keep me there until they arrived so they could haul me away to jail.

The security guards looked a bit puzzled, but kept their guns pointed at me. One radioed for the police.

Cholita was walking around in circles saying now I was finally going to get what I had coming to me.

I asked the security guards, if I kindnapped Cholita and was holding her prisoner in my basement, how come she was wearing $1000 worth of new clothes?

Cholita denied it, but then I started at her shoes and named the prices going all the way up to her coat. It was obvious I'd even gone shopping with her, and paid attention to what she liked.

After I named the price of her coat she said, "Ah ha!!! That's only $600."

So I pointed out, we hadn't gotten to the jewelry yet.

She admitted, "Ok, maybe that's right."

She seemed proud.

The security guards put down their guns.

u/curious__bug 14 points 2022-12-01 15:25

This had been my approach as well. I started my sessions in the walk-in closet over a year ago under the guise of just becoming a serious meditator. Over that time I’ve been able to construct a darkroom in the basement without raising any eyebrows. Now the family just assumes that Dad has a dedicated meditation space he uses a couple times a day.

I’ve been focusing on recap, and will prob continue that for the next few months. I have a leather bound journal that has my list, and another journal to log my time and activities. I’m in my early 40s, so I have a ton of stuff to unpack. The darkroom is ready to go once I move on to Tensegrity and darkroom gazing, though. I’ve also been practicing formal sitting for silence (splitting my time 50/50 with recap).

I’m def concerned with getting burned out before seeing any real magic. A lot of effort is going into this, so I’m hopeful to discover the puffs in a few months.

I’m finishing up Taisha’s book now, and then I’ll have read all the books, and most of the supplementary material. I’m an avid reader, so my wife didn’t really question why I have a giant stack of Castaneda books by the bed. She seems to be under the impression that I’m just fascinated with Carlos and all the events that surrounded him. I make a concerted effort to not talk about any of it with anyone. If she only knew how enthralled I am with the possibilities.

I’ve also unsubscribed to a lot of subreddits I previously kept up on, just to remove counter-intent.

u/EducationalCorner118 8 points 2022-12-01 20:13

I do the same, i refer to darkroom as meditation and tensegrity as yoga, when my gf ask, i tried to talk about sorcery to those "inclined" in the subject, but all i get is that NPC face following with a "nice weather uh"

u/Sazbadashie 1 points 2022-12-01 22:53

Perhaps the main difference between what is considered fake and real is simply the the matter of actually practicing and less the specific methods

[-]
u/danl999 5 points 2022-12-02 00:26

No, it's the methods for sure.

If you stick around you'll be able to explain what every other system and religion does, and where they went wrong that caused them to never get past that green line on our J curve map, which has pictures of various levels of magic.

And none of them can explain what goes on in here, except to claim it's bad for your soul, or that we're lying.

[-]
u/Sazbadashie 3 points 2022-12-02 01:26

Oh of course I guess what I was trying to say was the method has different names but in the end the proper way so to speak is all the same in how it works in the end and I do agree Like I'll 100% admit I wouldn't consider myself a practitioner of Castaneda. But I understand the basic principles of it and I know what you mean by other religions and spiritual practices not getting everything 100% I see it myself when going through the multitude of spiritual and occult subreddits.

And from my perspective I wouldn't say what goes on here is bad for the soul or there is lying going on I've looked into a few of the things that this path teaches and I can connect the dots to how I understand things on my side of things.
Even with my practice using the more common spiritual terms but I'm not going to use those definitions here in respect to this particular practice it would be like coming into someone's house and not taking your shoes off if they leave their shoes at the door .

u/infinite_unity01 1 points 2022-12-01 23:16

Great post but what is your Intent here?

Maybe it's just my life but matching the Eagle's Intent hasn't left a lot of room for stray partners. Those stalking assignments eventually came to an end for Taisha, you know.

I also have a closet dark room space and a male partner. I try to include him as much as I am able because opposite genders certainly benefit from each other's energy. He doesn't get Castenada but we discuss Vedic lore.

I know dan says females supply the powerful dark energy, but I also gain something from my male partner. I want to call it stability, acceptance, warmth.... perhaps a bit of reason here and there.

[-]
u/[deleted] 3 points 2022-12-02 07:15 recovered

Sometimes I try to include my partner, but she doesn't want to have anything to do with "spiritual stuff". I leave it be because I suppose this is not her path, or her intent. At least for now. Remember when DJ says to Carlos that we are alone? I think my intent for this post also connects to this topic. We sorround each other with people, but we are alone in the end. And we cannot learn sorcery for other people, they have to want it and put efforts in it. Again, also when DJ talks about the flyers and Carlos feels bad for people. I guess we can't save everyone, but at least we can try to save ourselves.

[-]
u/infinite_unity01 2 points 2022-12-07 15:56

We sorround each other with people, but we are alone in the end.

This is the most profound truth I have come across on this sub. The most useful information and it's not from a mod. We seem to be surrounded by people but they are really just meat puppets operated by IOBs that spew out words generated by hive mind expectations or any passing whim. Others are your own thoughts reflected back at you... through a glass darkly. The problem is, what does "your own" refer to?

That's as far as I have gotten. I keep having to remind myself because it's easy to forget. Sorcery is best kept secret because these beings turn on you. I guess they want you to stay here. You want you to stay here... so beware of comfortable. Makes me laugh because it is so different than the bliss that buddhists associate with enlightenment.

and before anyone mentions solipsism-- I'm not referring to solipsism.

u/[deleted] 3 points 2022-12-07 17:32 recovered

Thanks, but I cannot take credit for the quote, it's from DJ :) And yes, what u say about others blocking us from escaping, this is a truth and I see a similarity with the metafore from Dan about the chicken farm, where if a bird tries to escape the others bite him and don't let him go. In the end it's the spirit who decides who can try to make an attempt to escape and who doesn't. This is my 2nd attempt at sorcery, the first time years ago I stopped because of fear and turned to Christianity. Now I'm back at it, and don't even know how. Intent led me hear when I was searching for material to read. Following the techniques available here I've had a few small gains, which are motivating me and showing me that our path is real, and definitely Intent is lurking around this subreddit as if it's a real Place of Power. Let's see where we go :)
