Well, I've learned that getting stronger in all wonderful ways is much more useful in life than don Juan 'seeing'. That's what don Juan's 'way of the warrior' is all about. No matter what one chooses to do in life it will take strength to accomplish it. Whether it be things in the physical world or things in the dream world STRENGTH is always needed.
Strength is very much like money. When you have enough of it you can do amazing things in life. If you don't have enough strength money will not buy it for you. I believe strength is something each person has to earn for themselves.
Think of all the times don Juan had to intervene with Castaneda because he didn't have enough personal power (strength) to continue the sorcery process.
So, fortifying the spirit and becoming stronger by using all aspects of life to one's advantage is the best way for me. A supposed "warrior" who is a wimp is no true warrior, and that's a fact!
