What I take from what Don Juan said was that its not that he doesn't have feelings, but rather that he does not cling to any of them. If he feels affection in a moment with Carlos, he experiences that and expresses it as laughter, an embrace, what have you. But a minute later he is not 'reflecting' on that, he is in a new moment and is himself new. His self-reflective process has come virtually to a halt. I say virtually because there would still be a level of self-awareness, otherwise he would forget he's Don Juan .
Now you got me in the mood to hear the band Heart.
I wouldnt mind hearing them too!
