That line of thinking will keep you in the tonal forever, and misses the true power of stories.. He tells you himself exactly how to learn anything you want to learn, or to verify for yourself in great detail. NOthing is left to guesswork because we can intend the lessons and the for to u through just his reference to the stories. The stories are peices of power that contain a direct connection to the moment being referenced. EVerything is connected, all things, and the nagual of his stories, the part we don't know, can still be intended and beconed to us in our lives. The Ally is everything. Even the stories and tales of power from don Juan's life we never even heard of. The ally knows all and see's all. You can call it the aware element within the emanations themselves, the part that can becoe any thing, and is present in all things. Even now the past is present if you can summon it in this form. You can reconjure moments and experiences themselves just by intending them into your story. The Ally will teach you how to do anything you want to learn or see, including the exact psitions of awareness from don Juan Matus' lineage.
