Grandspeculator, you talk about a path with heart. But where was this path with heart when Don Juan
set up Carlos to be killed by Dona Soledad? And how about the other times DJ set up Carlos...?
Mother Theresa in India, thats a path with heart.
Good fucking point!! Nice to hear something coherent for a change. I said the same thing many times.
But I later realized that Don Juan didn't do this out of sadistic enjoyment. It was a brutal test for both Carlos and Soledad. In his ignorant world Don
Juan said to Soledad that without taking Carlos's energy she would not be able to burn with the fire from within.
Don Juan was a mexican seer, not a siberian/peruvian/nordic shaman, buddhist saint, nor a christian mystic or yogic adept. You can't judge him ignoring the
context of his life and knowledge. That's not fair. He didn't know any better.
Many of us do and yet we are not better than him.
PS: If you are such a big fan of Mother Teresa, by all means go to Calcuta and help the poorest of the poor. It's very easy to be wise and nice behind a
keyboard.
