Chapter on the Death Defiers-Carlos Castaneda
#2
Thank you Jake for bringing this to our attention.   I have not read this specific book in over 15 years.    It makes me want to re-read all the books now that I have a better undestanding.....from life in general and from being part of this warrior party.    I also appreciated the post in the main forum with the Wallace article.   I got much power from reading both.

I did have a couple of toughts and questions that I would like your opinion.  Do you know how we physically keep our awareness to obtain freedom after death?    I know we have to cultivate our power and live an impeccalble life to be able to do this.....but what is the physical mechanism.    My guess is that it is not known (or describable), but if we are on the correct path to freedom, we will know how to hold on to our awarness when the rolling force finally opens our gap.   It is understandable that the old seers thought they had to hold on to their current form of existance to defy death.   It is similar to the story of vampires who need the life force of others to live forever, but in their human form.    We are able to move on to something greater, and I do not need to know what that something greater is....all I need to know is that we can keep our awareness by living a warrior's life.    And the true reward is the impeccable life that we live.   There is no greater gift then this understanding and living life now to it's fullest potential as warriors. 
Being that Sebastion made this pack with the tenant almost 300 years ago.......there has been much shared with the naguals of this lineage.   I even know thet the tenant came to me in my dream and gave me knowledge that helped to push me into your warrior party.  I see the benefit of this mutual exchange of power........but the benefit is at the cost of the tenant being trapped in this circle of existence.  The tenant made the choice to be in this situation but why does he/she deserve this existence for eternity.   Can we help the tenant......stop this circular existence, stop being a death defier and obtain true freedom.     I know this would mean we cannot have the exchange with future generations of naguals but would the tenant be "better off" if allowed to follow freedom.   Can't we access silent knowledge to obtain the AP shifts that the tenant currently provides?    Are we to dependant on the tenant for that extra bit of knowledge that pushes us over the edge and allows us to obtain freedom?     I know that this is something that may not be easily answered.......even DJ says the tenant is trapped in a cycle that cannot be broken.     I even personally gained much from the tenant, but can't I/We share this with other warriors?    Can't we allow/help the tenant to have freedom.   I brought this up before.    I do not want to judge the tenant.   I have no ill feelings about the tenant nor do I feel the old seers were grotesque.....but my empathy for the tenant feels like it is judgemental when I read this.  I do not want to be judgemental.  I do not judge the tenant's situation...but I still have this strong desire to help the tenant obtain freedom.
