Interesting shift occuring, and perhaps I should leave well enough alone as it sounds like you two are agreeing to disagree...however, Wolf seemed to be describing a higher self or soul of himself and Gonzo a teacher with a duty to others as well as his expectation that as a teacher one should be buddha like in nature. Ironically, I haven't seen or felt any evidence that Wolf was attempting to act like a teacher...then again I haven't read the whole forum. I would agree, however, with Gonzo that the term "nagual" is probably not the best one to choose...it doesn't exist in the spanish language and there is a wider audience of people who are seeking their higher self or soul awareness that have not read Castaneda and a language that everyone would understand would have a greater benefit. I also get Wolf's point about using the name as a reminder to prop him to be in his higher self when posting...whatever works.
