What is your favorite DJM quote? - Blue totem - 09-20-2010
Hello everyone.
I'm doing a painting of Don Juan Matus as a crow. I need to incorporate a quote from DJM in it.
Please write your favorite quotes of DJ (1 to 3 phrases only), and I will pick one to incorpotare in my art.
When it is done soon, I will post it on the forum.
Thanks.

“I'm a crow. Am I a man or a bird? I'm a man who knows how to become a bird.”
or
"I am a crow. I am teaching you how to become a crow. When you learn that, you will stay awake, and you will move freely; otherwise you will always be glued to the ground, wherever you fall."

All paths are the same. They lead nowhere. A path without a heart is never
enjoyable. On the other hand, a path with heart is easy: It does not make a warrior work
at liking it. As long as a man follows a path with heart, he is one with it.
The most effective way to live is as a warrior. A warrior may worry and think
before making any decision, but once he makes it, he goes on his way free from
worries or thoughts knowing there will be a million other decisions still
awaiting him. That's the warriors' way.
A warrior lives by acting, not by thinking about acting, nor by thinking about
what he will think when he has finished acting.
Intent is not a thought, or an object, or a wish. Intent is what can make a man
succeed when his thoughts tell him that he is defeated. It operates independent
of any warrior's indulgence. Intent is what makes him invulnerable. Intent is
what sends a shaman through a wall, through space, to infinity.
A man, any man, deserves everything that is a man's lot: joy, pain, sadness, and
struggle.
To seek the perfection of the warrior's spirit is the only task worthy of our
temporariness, and our manhood.
Nobody is doing anything to anybody, much less to a warrior.
****... I like them all. Let us know when it's ready, T.

Two quotes from DJM that have potential.
-What we need to do to allow magic to get hold of us is to
banish doubts from our minds. Once doubts are banished anything is
possible.
-Everything that warriors do is done as a consequence of a
movement of their assemblage points, and such movements are ruled by
the amount of energy warriors have at their command.

Here's some good ones:
The characteristic of miserable seers is that they are willing to forget the wonder of the world. They become overwhelmed by the fact that they see and believe that it's their genius that counts.
Seeing is a peculiar feeling of knowing, of knowing something without a shadow of doubt.
There is no completeness without sadness and longing, for
without them there is no sobriety, no kindness. Wisdom without
kindness and knowledge without sobriety are useless.
When nothing is for sure we remain
alert, perennially on our toes. It is more
exciting not to know which bush the rabbit
is hiding behind than to behave as though we knew everything.
For an average man, the world is
weird because if he's not bored with it,
he's at odds with it. For a warrior, the
world is weird because it is stupendous,
awesome, mysterious, unfathomable. A
warrior must assume responsibility for
being here, in this marvelous world, in
this marvelous time.
Every living thing has been granted
the power, if it so desires, to seek an
opening to freedom and go through it.
Nobody knows who I am or what I do. Not even I.
We talk to ourselves incessantly
about our world. In fact we maintain our
world with our internal talk. And whenever
we finish talking to ourselves about
ourselves and our world, the world is
always as it should be. We renew it, we
rekindle it with life, we uphold it with our
internal talk. Not only that, but we also
choose our paths as we talk to ourselves.
Thus we repeat the same choices over
and over until the day we die, because we
keep on repeating the same internal talk
over and over until the day we die. A warrior
is aware of this and strives to stop
his internal talk.
Seeing must be direct, for a warrior can't use his time
to unravel what he himself is seeing . Seeing is seeing because it cuts through
all that nonsense. In the beginning seeing is confusing and it's easy to get lost in it.
As the warrior gets tighter, however, his seeing becomes what it should be,
a direct knowing. A warrior asks a question, and through his seeing he gets an answer,
but the answer is simple.
Once inner silence is attained, everything
is possible. The way to stop talking
to ourselves is to use exactly the same
method used to teach us to talk to
ourselves; we were taught compulsively
and unwaveringly, and this is the
way we must stop it: compulsively and
unwaveringly.
I am already given to the power that rules my fate.
And I cling to nothing, so I will have nothing to defend.
I have no thoughts, so I will see.
I fear nothing, so I will remember myself.
Happy painting Totem!

Say this over and over like a prayer: "The crux of sorcery is in the movement of the assemblage point"
or something to that effect, you know what I am talking about BT
