I was part of a sect in the past.
I had someone tell me things very similar to parts of Don Juan philosophy.
And it was one of the most miserable part of my life.
I told you I speak of experience...
I don't see Don Juan, or Carlos Castaneda as being smarter than the rest of us.
People that have been in sects talk about relinquishing their power to a guru.
I lived that. I've seen it happen with many. I can recognise the pattern.
Don Juan made his spirituality Dark and hostile...
But spirituality is supposed to be light, its about having self compassion and love.
You should know spec, since you are a adept of yoga...
