CC quotes:
Juan Matus didn't give a *** about 'Carlos Castaneda'. He was interested in that other being, the energy body ---what sorcerers call "the
double". That's what he wanted to awaken. You use your Double to dream, to navigate in the second attention. That's what pulls you to freedom.
'I trust that the Double will do its duty,' he said. 'I will do anything for it---to help it awaken.'
"You know, they always said people have this split between mind and body---this imbalance, this 'mindbody problem.' But the real dichotomy is
between physical body and energy body. We die without having ever awakened that magical Double, and it hates us for that. It hates us so much it eventually
kills us. That's the whole 'secret' of sorcery: accessing the Double for abstract flight. Sorcerers jump into the void of pure perception with
their energy body."
