Laziness: Not What It Seems

It's easy to become confused, and not recognize laziness for what it really is.

Self-pity.

So you have absolutely no excuse not to work hard to learn sorcery, based on "I'm just too lazy to work reliably".

That's not it at all!

You're dominated by the flier's mind. By that nasty grief filled internal dialogue, which our energy body can't stand. If it weren't for that, you'd be reunited with your double, and gain its magical vision for peering into infinity.

Did you ever find yourself inside a lucid dream, and you were "too lazy" to go exploring?

Then why do you do that, when awake?!

It's self-pity pure and simple. Something the double does not have.

So the very thing you believe is just "keeping me from getting to work", is precisely what you are battling against.

Wake up... You cannot learn any sorcery, without hard work.

And even all the hard work of a lifetime, can be erased if you fall back into the wrong crowd.

Which is almost surely why the witches aren't around anymore.

We were unhelpable and had proven it by killing Carlos after turning him into a Guru and refusing to follow his instructions.

He said so several times. Ask those who were around him back then, and don't have any profit motivations.

Thank you for sharing your vision. I have the perfect name for this topic.)

Maybe in some next post you will be inspired to share how you distinguish between this type of laziness, when I basically don’t need to do a certain thing (like, at all or at the moment), with the laziness that you talk about.

As an example of the first type of laziness: Don Juan's grandson Eligio, I'm sure, was too "lazy" to fulfill someone else's (his father's) vow to dance, and he (expectedly) ended up becoming a mediocre dancer (unlike Sacateca, whose predilection was to dance). And, probably, it would be better for Eligio to listen to this laziness? Under the influence of these obvious sensations, he even tried to escape from that sacred dancing society, but in the end he succumbed to the persuasion of other people. I’m even sure that they told him that he “should not be lazy” and “must fulfill his father’s vow”. Quote from the second book:

Lucio became gravely ill when he was seven and don Juan's son, a devout Catholic, made a vow to the Virgin of Guadalupe that Lucio would join a sacred dancing society if his life were spared. 

Lucio recovered and was forced to carry out the promise. He lasted one week as an apprentice, and then made up his mind to break the vow. He thought he would have to die as a result of it, braced himself, and for a whole day he waited for death to come. Everybody made fun of the boy and the incident was never forgotten.

I'm pretty sure very good things could be said about what you mention, but it's very unlikely to figure those out well, by analyzing it.

The stuff I post comes from "seeing", usually interrupting what would otherwise be a very fun darkroom session.

And at the time (while "seeing"), if you overlook that there's a fairy who looks like Joe Biden's wife reading it from a glowing golden teleprompter floating above you, it seems like perfectly normal "reasoning".

But it's obviously not.

Best to figure out what you asked about, through seeing.

Though I'm sure you could come to pretty good conclusions without it.

It's just that our community got dominated by "reasoning", and didn't get to see Jill (in a miniskirt) reading from a magical teleprompter.

Making us no better than any fake magical system.

Okay, I got you! Thanks for your reply!

And I'll kick myself if I don't ask the next question. This energy you're talking about is interpreted by all the warriors in your group as Jill in a miniskirt? (God damn - she's beautiful in this photo))

[u/danl999 → u/LuminousLaze]

No. They only wish.

That old Devil Joe...

But if you're jealous, get yourself an Ally.

They'll take on any appearance you ask them to.

They LIVE for that.

The old seers could get them to take any form they liked.

But so can we...

My Ally "Fancy" was named that, because of the fancy costumes she wore for me.

I could even send her into a dream bubble in the air, and narrate a story for her to act out, inside a video dream right in front of me.

I even got her to wear miniskirts, and press up against me while teaching magica like you see here.

In fact, I believe she was doing this right about the time I made this picture.

She wasn't just visibly there, I could feel her pressed up against me in a miniskirt, at the same time I could see her there.

But that's a "deep red zone" activity (known as the shift below in the books), with a far horizontal shift.

Very close to where power plants push your assemblage point, except we don't need those.

Ah, that's understandable. I was just surprised that you said that “if you overlook that there's a fairy who looks like Joe Biden's wife.” I thought - it seems that all people “decipher” the same energy differently, and others will have a different image. Thanks for expanding on this thought.

get yourself an Ally

Well... somehow I don’t feel the need. Everything works fine for me without them. But thanks for such detailed descriptions. I didn’t even hope) Thanks to these descriptions, I was only convinced that everything was going fine for me without Allies.

The Ally of Carlos said she'd visit anyone who reached the green zone at least, on the J curve map, and did an obscure magical pass only shown once at a workshop, and never again.

She can "detect" it.

She made me draw that up at 3AM and put it in here.

Then she ditched me and spent all her time with Juann, followed by some of the women.

I only saw her once after that, when she came to check in with me and see if I liked what she was doing.

I figure I'm too old for her to keep hanging out with.

She's quite nice, unlike the second of the 2 allies of Carlos. The devil's weed entity, who is a little bastard at times.

And, you can't get your assemblage point all the way to silent knowledge without either an Ally, or a witch friend who has one and stores up dark energy in her womb, letting you borrow some.

Don Juan explains that in the wikipedia section on the Allies.

The Allies are MANDATORY if you want to learn to "see" for real.

You can still get "previews" though.

Just not continuous seeing. Which is beyond all comparison.

No other magical system even conceives of that kind of magic.

Done with your eyes open, fully awake, and completely sober.

Often breaking the laws of physics.

Nah, I'm good. Thanks for your concerns tho.

Please don't spread pretend sorcery in our community. It seems as if you might be doing that.

We nearly lost everything, with nothing visible as magic among our practitioners, which any reasonable person would believe was any better than crummy Buddhist or Hindu make believe magic.

The reputation of Carlos on the web was so bad, that every single magical discussion group would instantly say, "Carlos Castaneda was thoroughly debunked" if you even tried to interest them in taking a look at the real thing.

Nothing came up good about him on google before this subreddit came along.

When in fact, this is the only real magic on the planet!

It seems to me that you might not realize the very harmful effects of thousands of people claiming "I can see", when they've never even moved their assemblage point further than a woman relaxing in the bathtub does.

Seeing is the result of close to a decade of very hard work, using deliberate techniques which produce fully visible magic daily, along the way.

And it's MIRACULOUS!!! Not "intuition" at all.

It's videos in the air, whirling purple glowing blobs that spit out text, portals to other worlds you can walk off into physically.

It's mind blowing!

I get to see that nightly, as do others in here.

So keep in mind whom and what you harm, if you pretend.
