"The Series of the Five Concerns: The Westwood Series". Group 1 - THE MAGICAL PASSES FOR THE CENTER FOR DECISIONS (all 12). Please see my other videos for voice commentary and textual description of individual movements. Demonstration is based on the book "Magical Passes" by Carlos Castaneda. Suitable for all ages, both genders, any level of ability. Please consult your physician before trying these movements.
The following passages are extracted from "Magical Passes" :::: The most important topic for the shamans ... of don Juan's lineage, was the center for decisions. ... there is a spot on the human body which accounts for decision making, the V spot - the area on the crest of the sternum at the base of the neck, where the clavicles meet to form a letter V.... here energy is rarefied .... this special energy is always pushed out of that centre very early in the lives of human beings, and it never returns to it, thus depriving human beings of ... the capacity to make decisions.... human beings are incapable of making decisions .... for this reason, they have created the social order: gigantic institutions that assume responsibility for decision making. They let those gigantic institutions decide for them, and they merely fulfill the decisions already made on their behalf. The V spot at the base of the neck ... (is) rarely touched ... if it (is) touched, the touch (is) ritualistic and always performed by someone else with the aid of an object.... "Every center of energy in the body... shows a concentration of energy; a sort of vortex of energy, like a funnel that actually seems to rotate counterclockwise from the perspective of the seer who gazes into it. ...if it barely moves, the center is exhausted, depleted of energy.... There are hundreds of (such vorteces) .... One can say that a human being is nothing else but a conglomerate of thousands of twirling vortexes ... There are, however, six which are so enormous that they deserve special treatment. They are centers of life and vitality. Energy there is never stuck, but sometimes the supply of energy is so scarce that the center barely rotates."
....those enormous centers of vitality (are) located on six areas of the body..... The first (is) on the area of the liver and gallbladder; the second on the area of the pancreas and spleen; the third on the area of the kidneys and adrenals; and the fourth on the hollow spot at the base of the neck on the frontal part of the body. The fifth (is) around the womb, and the sixth ... on the top of the head.
....The sixth center, located on top of the head, don Juan described as something more than an anomaly, and refrained absolutely from having anything to do with it. He portrayed it as possessing not a circular vortex of energy, like the others, but a pendulumlike, back-and-forth movement somehow reminiscent of the beating of a heart.
"Why is the energy of that center so different, don Juan?" I asked him. "That sixth center of energy," he said, "doesn't quite belong to man. You see, we human beings are under siege, so to speak. That center has been taken over by an invader, an unseen predator. And the only way to overcome this predator is by fortifying all the other centers."
"Isn't it a bit paranoiac to feel that we are under siege, don Juan?" I asked. "Well, maybe for you, but certainly not for me," he replied. "I see ... that the energy over the center on the top of the head doesn't fluctuate like the energy of the other centers. It has a back-and-forth movement, quite disgusting, and quite foreign. I also see that in a sorcerer who has been capable of vanquishing the mind, which sorcerers call a foreign installation, the fluctuation of that center has become exactly like the fluctuation of all the others."...
