Only a crackpot would undertake the task of becoming a man of knowledge of his own accord. A sober-headed man has to be tricked into doing it.

Ah so....
The 'trick' is in the tricking.
Who is performing the trick? Who is being tricked? What is being tricked? What does being tricked mean? How is one tricked? How is that who is performing the trick tapering it to the apprentice? When does the omen arise to be tricked? Where is one tricked, Tonal or Nagual or both? Why is there a need for such trickery?
Let us delve into this, my friends...
