I think anyone who takes Carlos`words as fantasy is a foolish being. I remember as Carlos watched a piece of garbage blowing in the wind and it became many things in his mind, before he saw it as a piece of garbage. Don Juan replied that it could have been anything before it was just garbage and that is power. He said something like that anyways. I took the essence of the teaching and used it often in my world. Once I was sitting an night in a rock cliff quarry by a river and I saw a flashlight scanning around a clearing around the river obviously with people attached to them, but i suspended my knowledge somehow and I saw them as just a light. Right away it began to ascend into the tree tops still like a flashlight that probed into the trees, then it split into two then they became glows of light that immersed their surroundings equally, still up in the tree tops and gliding around them. the lights came back to the ground level and visible and I thought that it can become just about anything and i imagined some alien entity that can turn into light and then strange sounds in an alien tongue started to emanate from the lights and I couldn`t make out the forms now beside the light. I realized my attention was unfolding freely and so I imagined what else a light could be when it answered me and turned into small displays of fireworks. I wondered for a second what the light was originally searching for and what the heck it really is when I wondered if it was searching for me. Then it became two orbs of light not emitting mich surrounding glow but with a strong focused search light on both and began hovering over the river stretching its light out. I thought then it must know where I am since it was answering me then its lights started to cross the river towards me and I heard a splash in the water and envision these aliens coming towards my location and I took off in a fright. It was a lesson in the placement of power in many way. If I wouldn`t have given Carlos (don Juans) teaching the credit it deserved then I wouold never have shifted in the first place.
