Another reading from Carlos Castaneda's third book: 'Journey to Ixtlan', Bodley Head, 1973.

so what don juan says is that we should be happy with what we have, i.e. make the most of it, right? it's useless to waste energy thinking about what we could have done differently. taking responsibility for one's own decisions means accepting the consequences without regret, even if the decision might have been a bad one. we cannot change our past mistakes, but if we recognise them as such, we can avoid them in the future.

@juuuzer Nail on head I would say!

Good work. Appreciate the thought that goes into your videos. I have read and re-read C.C. for several decades and you are right to give him a little public space. No matter whether Don Juan existed or not - he does now! And he is a great tool for examining one's own psyche, to imbibe the 'nature' of ancient teaching and to see too what we have allowed, as humans, to be done to us and to the planet.
