I just want to quote Don Juan on dreaming from one of my good friend's dreams. His Name is Waking nomad. In it don Juan claims that the dreaming that carlos used was only one way to access the power of dreaming. Me, as a dreamer am far more open minded to dreaming and it's uses. You can do it Carlos's way.... or you could do it your way, through your own interpretation. Your only goal is to reach the power of your dreaming. It doesn't really matter how you describe or talk about your uses and experiences of dreaming. Realize it's only ONE WAY of going aboutdreaming. In my view this reflects being light and fluid for a warrior. does one way of dreaming and interpretation not work for you? good, since there are many roads to Babylon, that means you can adapt to your own sense of dreaming and still access power.
That
would be Carlos that thinks he knows everything about dreaming. You see
he took what I said, and expounded upon it, and perceived me in his own
way. What he did not realize was that I was referencing a very specific
world that is not universal to all dreaming, but it is a path that he
had chosen for himself. Just as hallucinogens were necessary for one
such as him to be inducted into the wayless path, his perception of the
dream plane, a very abstract one was necessary for him to understand
dreaming. But, what he did not understand was I was teaching him a
perception that was to be for him alone. Other may perceive it
similarly, but not so universally as he so egotistically thought.
Carlos was always fascinated by a new experience, even if it was an old
experience forgotten, but never understood the true purpose which is to
perceive energy not as its truest form, but it's purest form, which is
this:
Everything changes into colored energy.
Now you see me for what I am, a dream character of Carlos Castaneda. It
is true that I am real. It is also true he met me in waking life. But,
I have no physical form. He was awake when we met because of the
hallucinogens he took. He had many dreams and many drug trips that were
so real, they were memories to him, which of course, they are. He had
dreams taking drugs, and when he was on a drug, he would take another
drug in his head, in the drug trip. I am at once a sentient entity, a
collection of thoughts and projections based on plant experiences and
the energy of a multitude of dreamers. But, at my core I am a creation
of Carlos Castaneda, yet I am real.
