The Origin of the Nagual

[Bob May]

Forgive me also for beating a point to death,




"Whereas, I'm trying to follow the rest of the books to their inevitable end."

But which end?




I see it as a matter of following Carlos or Don Juan.




"The sorceric end that I can see, the one that I saw Castaneda do with his own energy. Until I can see the energy of a different way, I will just have to
go with the one that I know."




And yet, you got to the point of "seeing" what you have without the ability to see at all.


In other words, you took the teachings of Don Juan on faith. That brought you to the ability to "see".




I have done the same thing to whatever level I have experienced things.


But I do not have the same faith in the later books, (though there are some valuable truths contained there) due to the fact that Carlos got off the path. That
is by his own admission.




I used the teachings of Don Juan to get me to a point of opening doors to the unknown.


Don Juan died and I looked elsewhere for what I think he was about. I found and experienced more.


I think Carlos got caught in the first room beyond the doorway.




It's all very difficult to ascertain being that we have to take Carlos' word on everything.
