I was thinking yesterday about Don Genaro...along what you said here. He was a man of action, not words. So its one reason he does not get as much credit...he's not saying "profound things" but to Carlos, its clear he shifted his AP and very expertly. Don Juan would perhaps say or did say, Genaro did it better than he. It feels to me like DJ laid the foundation of understanding and then Genaro was brought in for the next levels of shifting awareness. Not done in a specific order, mind you, but at various junctures and helped Carlos get out of rigidity. If it had just been DJ talking to Carlos, I doubt much progression would have occurred. DJ, like any nagual has limits due to predilections and that's why lineages, warrior parties all work together and the whole does make up the parts, the parts enhance the whole individually and collectively. Not new information being stated here, but think it needs to be emphasized. Its not just abotu the teachings, its perhaps moreso about ACTION. Shifting, seeing, metamorphosis into sorcerer...Genaro.
