I've experienced things like this as well. Unfortunately as soon as you mention that the experience was drug-induced very few will believe the experience to be legitimate. Although perhaps the most amazing things have happened to me during non-drug-induced states, I've also had a life-changing experience which had as it's prequel the consumption of LSD. Regardless of the fact that the drug was a mere trigger, most people think in invalidates any experience that follows.
I have no doubt you saw and felt all the things you say you did that day. But I must insist that all the feelings you felt, and things you saw was the result of smoking marijuana. The marijuana, in a sense, 'opened' your mind and gave you an intense feeling, therefore leading to your perceptions becoming distorted. This was your first time doing a drug that, although is not particularly dangerous, will affect your perception of reality. I'd love to know what you saw if you took LSD.
@uuwishcunt LSD gives you the experience of non-duality. You become ONE with all life. Have you never tried it? I hioghly recommend it, but be sure to take it in a safe, natural setting.
check out my vid THE SYCHRONICITY OF ONENESS PART 7/9 *CARLOS CASTANEDA/THE ART OF DREAMING* (attached) and see how my synchronistic experiences fell directly into the book "the art of dreaming" in a beyond-coincidence way.
See and hear Carlos and Don Juan... in the trailer for DIABLERO, the legendary 1970's rock opera based on Castaneda's books. See it here, on youtube.com
i had the same exprience when i had taken pills... i had done alot prior but one night i was watching tv with mates on E... then i just got this emmense energy around me and felt like i was everything and that i was connected with everything and everyone around me.... i was in everyones minds.... i had energy flowing through me. and me (energy) flowing through me (energy)
The best explanation is that this experience was pathological in nature. He merely shares with us the sensory effect of this event. There seem to be no practical, philosophically transformative implications of what he went through - which tips us off that this was merely "psychological" in nature.
That's pretty much just what happens when you get really high for the first time.
Yes, it was indeed spiritual, but you really shouldn't try to steer people away from the fact that it happened because of the fact that you smoked weed.
Truth is, if you weren't biased against "drug (ab)use", you wouldn't preface it with an anti-drug warning.
If the experience you had was positive, there's no reason to try and muddle the source of the experience.
Chasing after it makes you an addict, of course. Chasing anything makes you an addict. Obsession is never a good option. But at the same time, concealing a source because of bias only perpetuates ignorance.
If you had this amazing experience, due heavily to cannabis, why would you still think so poorly of it?
I've known obese people who've practically killed themselves over-eating, but trust; I love me some fucking chocolate fudge chunk ice cream. I'll eat a pint to the face and not feel bad.
I was meditating one day ..on the couch in my living room and suddenly I was sitting here at the computer in a completley different room and seeing things on the screen..I saw a photo of a ex gf and the writing around it was like hroglyphics..impossible to read..I remember following the writing with my finger and leaning in....It was so real I opened my eyes to see if I was really at the cp. lol..It was awesome. on occasion I could see the room i was in crystal clear with my eyes shut..
this world(s) exist..it is just parralel to us.. we are 2 much into this materialistic things all around us..we cannot see the ''seeing'' becose it's too unreal to us, that's like explaing to a human being that there is an end of the universe.. he/she will always ask the question of ''what is on the other side''
like hivequik said the old and ancient civilization know this ''magic'' they understood fisics in another way, this is how they built all the amazing things..
I went on a vision quest once- never again- I was initiated by a tribe called the jar heads and taken to the jungles to meditate did I see some shit- never again- Im not saying ignorance is bliss- just once is enough and never again is all ~ Peace to all the Yaquis and Native Americans, the path to salvation is a razors edge.
@dunkyboy77 there are certain contradicitions and a lot fo them have been withdrawn. i believe he is not fake and nor is don Juan. The biggest arguement of his fraud was the waterfall scene and the psilocybe mushrooms growing in mexico which both were disproved; mushrooms do grow in that part of mexico, and the water seen is similar to other things but everything is related somehowe.
@Hivequik - it's an interesting point, but I feel that his claims would be more testable by science. If the response to that is that these things aren't constrained by our science, then it just all seems a little too convenient, as are the arguments put forward by most religion, neatly impossible to disprove.
@dunkyboy77 I know what you mean, but with shamans they have a natural science based on their perception of the world and based on their perception our modern science is fake jsut as from our perception their science is fake.
@dunkyboy77 I personally disagree with religion but I am trying to become a shaman practitioner as its a practice and way of living, not a religion. I have personal experience to base it on, and I didnt have to believe anything nor did I know what shamanswere back then when I had my first supernatural phenomena.
@dunkyboy77 Don Juan's ways are true. You should read "Seperate Reality" and "Journey to Ixtlan" and you will see it can't be fake. You must realize not everyone will follow something without questioning it, movie critics are a great example. But I am on the same page as you, I think religion is just a brainwashing, yet there is a God there is not certain story on how he came to be and his followers stories. "The Mysteries of Angel and Deomons" is a good movie to watch on that topic.
@dunkyboy77 I would be ready to accept Castaneda was a fake, but the teachings in the storyy are still profound and true to the way of other shamans and gurus, the Toltecs is an example.
@Hivequik castaneda wasnt fake becaause you can experience and feel anything he wrote.if you do training.but if you just practise magic you miss whole point of don juan teachings.
@dunkyboy77 As far as the history books, most shamans are decumented to believe the same things and have the same teachings soo obviously some book somewhere will speak of the same teachings. thats how they got into textbooks, through studying sorcerers and shamans.
you performed a miracle while stoned on pot. congratulations, so did i. but the miracle i performed was on another person. my soulmate. she was purified that same hour!
Sounds like Kundalini. Read Living With Kundalini by Gopi Krishna. Also recommend Sorcerer's Apprentice: My Life With Carlos Castaneda by Amy Wallace.
you destroy your body by the way:)the seeing is just the sidproduct and the destroying of body is result.if u cant stop you end in cancer like castaneda.
@supralee thats a very narrow way to look at it. The body naturally produces a hallucinogen known as DMT (brother of serotonin) and is beleived to be in higher balances in shamans and could be the way they learn to "see" it isnt destroying your body. Carlos death is contreversial, no one truly knows how he died. some people believe he used his sorcery for evil and that could play a role in his death
I don't doubt that you had a mini-Kundalini awakening, but the way you described what you were feeling...trust me, you were really, really stoned. Really good weed will do what you described, and some of the more potent strains can even act as psychedelics for someone inexperienced.
The books like Jonathon Livingston seagull and The way of the peacful warrior all fell short of revealing it is precision that counts. It is of no use for Jonathon to do a forward barrel roll if there is no precision in it. And the nose dive through the flock is a waste of time without precision: this life is not about exploring your limits so much as finding what is truly essential to your existence.
Is it necessary? If not junk it. Unbending intent Don Juan reveals as increasing precision.
You people do not know the books correctly. For example Don Juan tells Carlos vivid (lucid) dreams are of no importance and it is a waste of time to follow them. So this man is a liar who is promoting lucid dreaming to waste your time and bignote himself. The most important statement by Don Juan: 'A warrior seeks a precise act, and if he repeats it often enough it sets up unbending intent...then the warrior realizes his full potential.' Many books fall short of the truth that precision is all.
i'm reading Journey to Ixtlan right now and it doesn't seem if what you said is entirely true. Don Juan says dreaming is of no importance, but "dreaming" (in Italics) is the way to power. pg 142, "All you're doing is distracting yourself from the purpose of 'dreaming' which is control and power." Ordinary dreaming seems to be what he regards as unimportant, but the dreams where one can travel to far off places, move mountains etc. those are important. and those are what we define as lucid dreams
Don Juan's comments! See DJ's comments that have the word 'precise' in them. eg:'The {precision] warrior [PW]seeks a precise act and if he repeats it often enough he sets up unbending intent{UI} and then one thing lwill lead to another and the warrior will realize his full potential.' And: 'this is intent: intent, intent!, intent!!' -- the pitch getting ever higher. Thus intent is going from somewhat sharp action to sharper action. UI is like a wave that the PW catches with skilful paddling.
ivr had amazing expirnces on mushrooms, pure bliss and unimaginable pure awe and relizations that were sooo mind boggling and beyond words. like the archytypes and the myths and stuf i cant even explaine that are behind reality. felt like i understood everything
I stoppedtheworldsoonafterreading journey toixtlan when itfirstcameout. See the eaglesgift: itis really all aboutfinding the truth by stalking or by dreaming. The sorcery passes are merely unusualroutines. The truth sets the warrior free. A warrior isanimpeccablehunter hunting the power ofprecision and if he succeeds he becomes "amanofknowledge" akeeperof truth. Both dreamintg and stalking aretruejourneys ofnon-repetition. The warrior is seeking ever higher and swifter precision;NOT pedantic.
I stopped the world, or the world stopped too. Everything was still, but there was movement, like a paradox. I was not on any drugs. Just sitting peacefully gazing at nature. Stillness is from what all arises.
hey, i'm a bit of a novice when it comes to stuff like this (although i do experience sleep paraysis a lot,, more than the average person seems to- i'm not sure if that is significant of anything spiritual?) anyway, thanks for making this video. i would like to ask (ironic as it may sound) can spending too much time on a computer or in front of a television reduce your ability to dream in general? as i rarely ever have dreams (although when i do, they're quite often lucid)
The understanding of [i]seeing[/i] that is had by a vast number of people is quite thoroughly mistaken. The translation from spanish to english has made it difficult. /seeing/ is vastly different to looking remember. Permutations of a visual experience, are not seeing. It is an alteration of perception, a slight shift in assembly perhaps. But not a move, and not seeing. Extrapolations on the illusions that can be defined are all elements of the tonal. No apparition you will see, is seeing
What you felt was the rising of your vibration due to stop of resistance thanks to the marijuana. I have learned the law of attraction techniques.
You can achieve that state any time you want by doing vibrational rampages (see Abraham Hicks youtube channel to hear some of them), you can do it with or without help but i personally prefer the use of this lovely plant.
It only means that you are very happy and got happier, you got to the natural state of being, also achievable by meditation.
no...actually this pot helped you to achieve this state...you are denying the nature if you dont agree....i mean...i know that people abuse this plant substance and do dumb stuff while under the influence of it. but they are simply not understand the purpose of that plant...the same goes with the shamans of the amazon and other cultures who use certain naturally occurring substances to achieve spiritual goals. they understand the plant and thus receive the full potential from them. peace!
Thank you for sharing your experience. It's very difficult to transfer seeing with words. I have worked with the techniques in the books and have been able to see the world in many different, unimaginable ways. Seeing the energy behind the objects is a great insight. Thanks!
There was never a Don Juan Matus who taught Castaneda anything. Take it from a reader and ex-believer of his books since the 1960's: You don't need to spend months or years trying to figure out and/or learn what Castaneda wrote about. It was all a brilliant fairy tale. You, as a human being, have the innate ability to perceive alternate realities, experience true altered states of awareness, out-of-body-experiences, telepathy...and you can do it without having to rely on any bozo con-artists.
how can you say you never learned anything from those books? the destruction of self importance, and thus liberation from self indulgence. seeing things from a non personal biased point of view. the power of silencing your mind to achieve a state of calmness. what about it's a pleasure and an honor to be a warrior? a warrior is a maverick with refined tastes and manners? what about impeccability and doing your best by default? sorry you didn't learn anything from the books man, FAIL!
what about living life by an an energy saving strategy, so we can tackle the unknown? what about trying all walks of life to collect personal power and the enrichment of our own awareness? what about the 4 arts of stalking, a sure fire method for turning any situation around? i feel sorry for people who can't see past the drug trips and controversy etc. and see the real teachings we can apply to our life that could make us better people...
hey thats an amazing story ! it really is ..I am really inspired in what you said i do believe that self awareness is in your own being ! we just need to look into our inner self !
How come you read Castaneda and still post these videos? Don't you remember what Don Juan said? You are now static and your powers are limited. Thousands of people saw your face and the videos do exist.
Pot is a mild psychedelic. Sure you can hit the spiritual without drugs but they free you of your ego bound restraints. How can you smell a good bud and not know that it is a gift from god.
It's good to listen to sane folk who experience life in ways similar to my own. My friends toked, etc. for the social benefits,while for me it was always about psychic experimentation. Castanedas books were a joy to read, full of useful info. One night I astral-travelled from my sleeping body into the bathroom so that I could 'see' my energy body in the mirror. An amazing sight. It happened six months after I had set my intention to do so. As an intuitive being, I am well to develop my strengths
I suppose you got a hell of a trip ,the stuff must have been really good :P Still after joking with this,even tho i believe there is a certain amount of truth in there imo, i honestly believe that some drugs can trigger some hidden possibilities in us. There are also other ways to do that but some drugs and even marijuana can help you understand your hidden skills. :)
From my understanding of meditation, the 'goal' is to achieve a state of equanimity that is unassailable. a mental equilibrium which is not disturbed by the various mental/physical phenomena that one experiences. Of course, many other 'states', and perceptions may be experienced during the pursuit of that condition.
Because at that moment I knew, that no dead is realy the end, but its just another sort of conciousnes, sinc from i dont fear it. Also at this stage my 5 sences melt in one senc, so i was able to taste with my hands or hear music ith my eys, and I tell you this was the most funniest part, but so deep meditation i never acheave again, but iam transformed with it. These meltig sences i was told is same if you take some 5 lsd papers or so, but tibetian monks are talking about it too...peace :-)
seeing through my hand, but this is other sort of vision. But i had same vision like you, when i meditated in my room on collage. I ex. that everything is like shall, like texture on lighting energetic forms of things. I saw sweet light radiating from walls, my hands, from my cup of tea. I saw this 3D world like from other 4th or 5th D. Knowing and feeling the undying energy source, which come from every very to me, and I was part of it, but no word can describe it. And I laught, and feel joy.
Yes, I know exactly what are you talking about, because I have same experience like you. I have many experiences like Castaneda in his book. Although I have first experiences, and than I found these books, i red all of them. And I asure you, Castaneda must went through these experiences, to wrote about it. Because without ex. you simply cannot wrote about it like he did. After practising one year astral pull up, i found myself, standing me, next to my body liyng, in fool awerenes, see throuwalls
wow! has this happened more than once to you since teen years?, what you saw was good energy. I have a friend in our teens, early one sunday morning on his paper route saw the back of some woman floating in the air, she had on a white dress,he said she was as big as a house,also with white hair and she was moaning. Scard the shit out of him he raced his bike all the way home woke up his dad,dad help him with his route. Was he seeing too.
Thanks for posting your experience and that takes some courage...Thank you for sharing..I have been practicing dream yoga for over six years and I have never had anything like that.
IN the dream state I pull up whatever I want. lol..
Seeing energy is connected to noticing your emotional kind of contact with things.
Concentrating on objectivity distorts emotional view, you get to let go of a visual "objective" view to be able to concentrate fully on the emotional side of things.
Propably he was young, living fully, with full intention, so it demanded only sports to get his whole energy system to operate "at full speed".
Energy is primary because it is how we function - not everything that we are.
I can relate to this experience. Ever since a similar occurence happened to me... i became "cosmically conscious" ... just take a look at some of my videos and you will get a sense of what this gateway of consciousness has permitted me to do. i totally relate to this miraculous phenomenon and have hardly ever drugs in my life.
My friend, the insights you describe later in your experience leads me to believe that your herb was laced with an hallucinogen. Reason being, those types of insights into the illusory nature of things are not typical in ordinary consciousness.
Thanks for sharing your experience. By listening to your video I can tell your consciousness has changed as a result.
Normally these experiences are out of our control because it's the power plant taking over. She moved your assemblage point. You didn't have to do anything. Big deal. I don't judge you :) Can you however do it without the power plant's help? That would require discipline and sobriety. Castaneda wrote 10 books laying out the lifestyle needed to deal with extra-ordinary perceptions. He called it the "warriors way". Have you looked into that?
p.s., i don't think Castaneda made up everything, because when i started doing Magical Passes i felt something moving on my back, later i heard that it could have been the assemblage point. I still feel it regularly. I'm sure it wasn't auto=suggestion, because i had never expected that it would start moving so soon.
Some people have suggested that Castaneda created his books from research, and even if that is true, it is possible that much of what he researched was accurate information. I have found much that was suggested in the books to be of value. I am sure you did feel the energy on your back as you mention.
Your experiences are real. And shared. Although, over time, i think that our reality here is our reality, and is only illusory when we are operating from a different assemblage point. So, both are true. ..Point is, while we're here, let's be all here.
EDIT: I don't recommend using drugs. However, that sounds somewhat like my first pot experience. Not everyone is effected this way obviously. The best way, like you said, is to meditate. Drugs can open you up in bad ways.
although, if you've read any of Carlos' books....he says (don juan) that meditation is dangerous and takes too long. The plants were his ally and was a tool to expedite the process.
Neither Carlos or Don Juan ever explicitly referred to meditation in those books, and Don Juan eschews the power plants almost entirely after the third book, 'Journey to Ixtlan.'
Whoops, sorry :x With all the misconceptions flying around I must have created something based upon the usual stigma in the country I live in. Thank you for your response though. Light
Why the hell can't something be a drug and an herb? There's no herb/drug dichotomy.
If you look at the etymology of the word "drug", it comes from the middle-dutch word "droge", which means "dry" -- probably in reference to the dried *herbs* that were used in making early drugs.
just keep giving them your awareness and they will let you know.they are all around us and waiting for us to cross over and are ready for us to realize that there not as far away as we think they are.
Well, in altered states of consciousness we begin to see more of the true nature of the reality. Just a matter of shifting our awareness/focus. Good video. Thanks for sharing it with us. Bless be!
Wow, that is incredible. At first I was thinking maybe your smoke was laced with something that you were sensitive to. But the fact that you were able to pull out the signs kind of gets me. I don't do smoke or hallucigens but I have in the past and never had that kind of experience. I think it's got to be from past lives. An awakening of some sort.
It was definitely an awakening, and as I said, the experience had a permanent effect upon my consciousness - a helpful and expansive effect that changed my inner vision and the capacity of my spiritual heart to comprehend the greater Whole. Those are not the effects of a drug experience.
there is a point in the life span when a certain turn is made and you seem to adjust so that the term stepping out fits to the emotion. it is like waking up and ascerting that we are locked into a routine and frequency. cont....
i am now moving onto realising the understaings and internal thoughts are not even shaped by us as we asscertain to be so our ego is not actually us either. i do not proclaim to understand things fully but self realisation is empowerment and important to know to understand our true mind seat (set)
to LivingSuccess, first of all thanks for posting and sharing your story, i personally have "seen" the world you saw and it is an amazing thing to experience, the connectedness of everything is difficult to put in words, the road to "seeing" is a very very scary road, but keep on it, and good job trying to help others, you are on your way, the mysteries of life (and death) are more profound than we can imagine, trust your instinct and always remember, our time is short so use it wisely, peace
I know that there are people who have said this and probably written books about it. To me it doesn't really matter, because I believe in personally verifying things through my own experience. I try to share from that perspective and I strongly encourage people to not take my word for anything, but to try these things out for themselves as well. Don Juan is just a name, and even so there are Don Juan's out there.
hello cappy,what you have written, is surely right, and it is true for many kind of things.
lg- i also read a lot of castaneda stuff, but many things are so obvious wrong ... but somehow, it was and is still a kind of inspiration for me, perhaps, because he takes
us beyond our every day life and at the same time, he speaks about tonal, an that means, how to live every day life too : )
I don't think it was all the work of *YOUR* Kundalini, it also was the work of the pituitary gland...which is the energy centre of all the other senses...... :O)
that's amazing,really fabulous. your stories really are gifts for us. seeing the nadis before you even knew they existed. wow...about 12 years ago i 'unzipped' from my body once,during prayer-and felt how much the world was like a stage set in a movie...& my friend had book about obe's. the woman featured in a chapter also said the things we see in the 3-d world are props, for us to experience for various reasons. to help make the world more real for us.
Castaneda didn't live all that long. His health habits must have been poor. He was a con-man and pathological liar, who banged a lot of gullible women.
I enjoyed your video. I am glad that there are people like you amongst us;if only there were more. Thank you for sharing your wisdom,your message is very inspirational.
Wow, I love this story. I hope some day I can achieve this kind of awareness. Thank you for sharing it with the world. We are living in a time when it is badly needed, I believe.

I saw you on a vid taking to task the silly reptilian folks a month ago LivingSuccess. Here you are broaching a subject that also holds great interest for me, having read everything Casteneda wrote. You always come across sincere in your stuff and I think that's cool.
The drug opened one of an infinite of frequencies. In tune you were able to experience this reality w/stimulation. Agreed, Drugs are certainly not the way. Meditating, Quieting the mind will lead to the falling away of ego and immerse one in the field that permeates in all things. Expanding consciousness is the key to attaining ones own truth or purpose in life. The more vast your consciousness becomes, one will be able to experience the infinite realities available to all.
Dude I would really give about anything to be like you. I have no idea how to start, my spirituallity level is like at a zero. If only I could see how you see.

The best explanation is that this experience was pathological in nature. He merely shares with us the sensory effect of this event. There seem to be no practical, philosophically transformative implications of what he went through - which tips us off that this was merely "psychological" in nature.

That's pretty much just what happens when you get really high for the first time.
Yes, it was indeed spiritual, but you really shouldn't try to steer people away from the fact that it happened because of the fact that you smoked weed.
Truth is, if you weren't biased against "drug (ab)use", you wouldn't preface it with an anti-drug warning.
If the experience you had was positive, there's no reason to try and muddle the source of the experience.

Chasing after it makes you an addict, of course. Chasing anything makes you an addict. Obsession is never a good option. But at the same time, concealing a source because of bias only perpetuates ignorance.
If you had this amazing experience, due heavily to cannabis, why would you still think so poorly of it?

@dunkyboy77 there are certain contradicitions and a lot fo them have been withdrawn. i believe he is not fake and nor is don Juan. The biggest arguement of his fraud was the waterfall scene and the psilocybe mushrooms growing in mexico which both were disproved; mushrooms do grow in that part of mexico, and the water seen is similar to other things but everything is related somehowe.

@Hivequik - it's an interesting point, but I feel that his claims would be more testable by science. If the response to that is that these things aren't constrained by our science, then it just all seems a little too convenient, as are the arguments put forward by most religion, neatly impossible to disprove.
dunkyboy77 2 years ago
@dunkyboy77 I know what you mean, but with shamans they have a natural science based on their perception of the world and based on their perception our modern science is fake jsut as from our perception their science is fake.

@dunkyboy77 I personally disagree with religion but I am trying to become a shaman practitioner as its a practice and way of living, not a religion. I have personal experience to base it on, and I didnt have to believe anything nor did I know what shamanswere back then when I had my first supernatural phenomena.
Hivequik 2 years ago
@dunkyboy77 Don Juan's ways are true. You should read "Seperate Reality" and "Journey to Ixtlan" and you will see it can't be fake. You must realize not everyone will follow something without questioning it, movie critics are a great example. But I am on the same page as you, I think religion is just a brainwashing, yet there is a God there is not certain story on how he came to be and his followers stories. "The Mysteries of Angel and Deomons" is a good movie to watch on that topic.

@supralee thats a very narrow way to look at it. The body naturally produces a hallucinogen known as DMT (brother of serotonin) and is beleived to be in higher balances in shamans and could be the way they learn to "see" it isnt destroying your body. Carlos death is contreversial, no one truly knows how he died. some people believe he used his sorcery for evil and that could play a role in his death

The books like Jonathon Livingston seagull and The way of the peacful warrior all fell short of revealing it is precision that counts. It is of no use for Jonathon to do a forward barrel roll if there is no precision in it. And the nose dive through the flock is a waste of time without precision: this life is not about exploring your limits so much as finding what is truly essential to your existence.
Is it necessary? If not junk it. Unbending intent Don Juan reveals as increasing precision.
inertialcapacity 2 years ago
You people do not know the books correctly. For example Don Juan tells Carlos vivid (lucid) dreams are of no importance and it is a waste of time to follow them. So this man is a liar who is promoting lucid dreaming to waste your time and bignote himself. The most important statement by Don Juan: 'A warrior seeks a precise act, and if he repeats it often enough it sets up unbending intent...then the warrior realizes his full potential.' Many books fall short of the truth that precision is all.
inertialcapacity 2 years ago
i'm reading Journey to Ixtlan right now and it doesn't seem if what you said is entirely true. Don Juan says dreaming is of no importance, but "dreaming" (in Italics) is the way to power. pg 142, "All you're doing is distracting yourself from the purpose of 'dreaming' which is control and power." Ordinary dreaming seems to be what he regards as unimportant, but the dreams where one can travel to far off places, move mountains etc. those are important. and those are what we define as lucid dreams
meanmark1 2 years ago
Don Juan's comments! See DJ's comments that have the word 'precise' in them. eg:'The {precision] warrior [PW]seeks a precise act and if he repeats it often enough he sets up unbending intent{UI} and then one thing lwill lead to another and the warrior will realize his full potential.' And: 'this is intent: intent, intent!, intent!!' -- the pitch getting ever higher. Thus intent is going from somewhat sharp action to sharper action. UI is like a wave that the PW catches with skilful paddling.

matomania 2 years ago
The understanding of [i]seeing[/i] that is had by a vast number of people is quite thoroughly mistaken. The translation from spanish to english has made it difficult. /seeing/ is vastly different to looking remember. Permutations of a visual experience, are not seeing. It is an alteration of perception, a slight shift in assembly perhaps. But not a move, and not seeing. Extrapolations on the illusions that can be defined are all elements of the tonal. No apparition you will see, is seeing

What you felt was the rising of your vibration due to stop of resistance thanks to the marijuana. I have learned the law of attraction techniques.
You can achieve that state any time you want by doing vibrational rampages (see Abraham Hicks youtube channel to hear some of them), you can do it with or without help but i personally prefer the use of this lovely plant.
It only means that you are very happy and got happier, you got to the natural state of being, also achievable by meditation.

There was never a Don Juan Matus who taught Castaneda anything. Take it from a reader and ex-believer of his books since the 1960's: You don't need to spend months or years trying to figure out and/or learn what Castaneda wrote about. It was all a brilliant fairy tale. You, as a human being, have the innate ability to perceive alternate realities, experience true altered states of awareness, out-of-body-experiences, telepathy...and you can do it without having to rely on any bozo con-artists.

From my understanding of meditation, the 'goal' is to achieve a state of equanimity that is unassailable. a mental equilibrium which is not disturbed by the various mental/physical phenomena that one experiences. Of course, many other 'states', and perceptions may be experienced during the pursuit of that condition.

Seeing energy is connected to noticing your emotional kind of contact with things.
Concentrating on objectivity distorts emotional view, you get to let go of a visual "objective" view to be able to concentrate fully on the emotional side of things.
Propably he was young, living fully, with full intention, so it demanded only sports to get his whole energy system to operate "at full speed".
Energy is primary because it is how we function - not everything that we are.

Normally these experiences are out of our control because it's the power plant taking over. She moved your assemblage point. You didn't have to do anything. Big deal. I don't judge you :) Can you however do it without the power plant's help? That would require discipline and sobriety. Castaneda wrote 10 books laying out the lifestyle needed to deal with extra-ordinary perceptions. He called it the "warriors way". Have you looked into that?

Some people have suggested that Castaneda created his books from research, and even if that is true, it is possible that much of what he researched was accurate information.

I saw you on a vid taking to task the silly reptilian folks a month ago LivingSuccess. Here you are broaching a subject that also holds great interest for me, having read everything Casteneda wrote. You always come across sincere in your stuff and I think that's cool.

The drug opened one of an infinite of frequencies. In tune you were able to experience this reality w/stimulation. Agreed, Drugs are certainly not the way. Meditating, Quieting the mind will lead to the falling away of ego and immerse one in the field that permeates in all things. Expanding consciousness is the key to attaining ones own truth or purpose in life. The more vast your consciousness becomes, one will be able to experience the infinite realities available to all.

I don't intend to hold anything back from my experiences, and I want to do everything I can to help others to grow in consciousness as much as possible. The website that I have listed on my Channel is my newly launched discussion forum. Take part in the discussion there and feel free to ask any questions that you have. I will do everything I can to help you. I have to give a goofy looking URL because the system blocks them (w)(w)(w).livingsuccessforum.(<
