I always thought, as most do in their youth, that I was destined for great things. I sensed within myself a great power lurking beneath the surface. It makes me wonder if we arent intentionally born with this drive in order to send us through reality and into infinity, accomplishing great things. Not all of us meet this mark but some of us certainly do.
I was good at most things I set my mind to accomplishing. I didnt always start out good at things but could quickly master them given time. I had ADHD growing up and was quite a troublesome youth. A handful to my parents I was in and out of juvenile detention centers from the age of 15 into adulthood. When I was 15 I broke into a house looking fr liquor and found $15 000 in a locked box on a dresser. Let just say form that point on I was hooked. I went to jail until I was about 20, when I took a break from my crime life and met a girl who set me straight.
Jamie was not noly beautiful but she was smart, wholesome and had her **** together. See I was used to criminals and druggies and so meeting her and falling in love was exactly what I needed at the time. At first I would steal around her, from stores, and she would walk beside me as if nothing was wrong. We had just begun falling in love and so she kept her discord to herself until we were more comfortable and open with each other, when one day she told me she didnt like it. Naturally I agreed to stop and clean up.
I smoked a lot of pot back then and felt I would never stop. I played guitar and played a lot of videogames. I had a lot of girls into me then but I never really could see it at the time. Jamie would tell me all the time when she saw a girl gawking at me or trying to flirt with me. Somehow I had blinders on. I never really sought out many women back then. I always had a way of finding a girl naturally. One just fell into my lap, and soon after right onto my lap!
It wasnt long after meeting Jamie and building a beautiful relationship that I began falling into love with nature. Plants, flowers, and trees. Everything green I loved. My new favorite colour was the vibrant fresh green on new pant growth. I began collecting plants form everywhere they sold them. I would take trips to local gardens and nurseries and clip cuttings off of many plants so I could clone my own. Indeed I developed a very green thumb.
I ended up enrolling into a college course for horticulture and my studies went wonderful and I loved it immensly. I did very well in school and soon had my own section in the greenhouse all to myself. My plants flourished and I grew them with love. I literally believed that loving them made them grow better. They could feel my love and knew they were loved for their beauty and rapid growth and so they thrived for me. Students and teachers began asking me how to grow certain plants and my wealth of knowledge was sought after heavily. I grew an interest in bonsai trees one day and started to grow them by the hundreds. A beauty oriental art of growing a tree into a miniature version of its larger counterpart.
Despite being in a loving relationship and doing well in school for the first time in my life I was missing something. I wanted some excitement. Some mystery. I craved for purpose, something deeper. I began reading book on spirituality. Jamie was very spiritual and had books on the shelf that i began to read. I also searched online, frequenting forums and reading articles. The firsts books i read were on astral travel and O.B.E.’s (out of body experiences).
Being good at most things and a quick learner helped me, and soon I was leaving my body and traveling into the astral realms. One day I laid down on the futon and focused on my astral body, a second body one has. I reached out while focusing and reached right through the bottom of the futon. I was so excited that I ran upstairs to where my cat was laying, a beautiful himalayian named Sebastion, and reached right through his body as I petted him. He obviously felt it for he was shocked and recoiled in alarm. I was estatic! I had found a super power. When Jamie came home I told her all about it and she sat lovingly listening to my excitement.
Well this new power led me to search for more. I wanted to learn of magic. I searched high and low for it and found wicca. Wicca is a magical religion and focuses on spells and magic. I tried a few of the spells and found that nothing happened. I didnt understand how the magic worked. I mean lighting some candles and whispering a poem?! How is that supposed to work? I didnt understand the underlying principles, the foundation, at the time and so wicca was a dead end. I needed something I could understand. Not empty rituals, as mine were at the time.
One night I woke from a dream. It was the most vivid dream of my life. I met a man, who I felt was a teacher, and h opened his hand to show me something and in it was a large blue dragonfly. Instinctively, for in dreams we know things we dont know in real life, I asked him what it was. He replied it is a secret to be unravelled. I went online into a wicca community and found a dream board and asked for a dream reading there. I got a few responses but nothing very in depth. Then I received private message form Lilacsky inviting me to a more in depth dreaming forum named Other Worlds.
Other Worlds was soon to be my home away from home. I posted my dream there and found my new friends answering me with a detailed understanding of dreaming nature. They told me I was at a time of change in my life and that I would learn about life, transcendence, and possibly meet a new teacher. This dream excited me and soon I would learn many things bout dreaming.
Researching dreams led me to learn that dreams can be prophetic, foretelling of the future. They can be deeper meanings and lessons to learn in life. They can be our higher self communicating with us and guiding us to a higher purpose. Or they can be mundane, nonsensical, random imagery. What interested me is that dreams often lead to other real worlds, and trips into the astral planes.
I grew a deep love for my friends at Other Worlds and felt as if we were kindred spirits. I was attracted to Lilacsky right of the bat but didnt indulge that fantasy. After all I had Jamie and loved her very much. One day I told Lilac a lie and she immediately knew. She was indeed a gifted psychic. Something i would love to learn. I began, with my new friends help, practicing opening my third eye. The psychic eye.
My studies at school progressed and I built great relationships with my classmates. They particularly favored my homegrown hydroponic pot. It was “the bomb”. One day while smoking with some friends I had one of them, at whose house we were, Mike, give me a book to read. We had been speaking of spiritual matters and he raved about a book he had read by Carlos Castaneda. That is when the world of sorcery first fell into my lap. Things have a way of unfolding. Destiny will find you wherever you may be. Its like the universe set into motion long ago the events that would unfold to lead me right to this point. And this point is where the story really begins. The point of no return.
I dove right into the first book called A journey to Ixtlan. It was very intelligently written about an anthropologist learning sorcery from a sorcerer. Or rather a shaman. It had deep lessons I would never forget and would change my life forever.
As if finding the book wasnt a sign itself but the next week Other Worlds began a group dream study and the book was none other then “The Art of Dreaming” by Carlos Castaneda. Carlos wasnt very famous, and to find two of his books in a week was a sure sign that sorcery was meant for me.
Lilac had a post in the forum that was very interesting to me at the time. It spoke of power plants that shamans would use in order to learn shamanism and develop great powers. They said that the shamans would give their apprentices these plants in order to shift their awareness into hightened states, altering their perceptions and teaching them new feats of power. The shaman would work with the spirit of the plant and the spirit would cater and bend itself to the purposes, and will, of the shaman. I immediately began to look at pot in a whole new light, as a living spirit with power to aid me in my quests. As result of this new perception my relationship with Marijuanna grew and expanded to great heights.
Lilac also introduced me into what mystics refer to as kundalini. A force, an energy, that rises up into your spine and is directed to various chakra points. Meridians in the body. This energy is supposed to awaken you and teach you many secrets, helping the practitioner learn feats of great power. It is said that to awaken the kundalini is very dangerous as one could lose their mind. The mind begins, in a very fragile state, so conditioned by the sciences, the teachers of our lives, to be within a very rigid and narrow plane of existence. Very seldom does someone think outside the box.
So every night for the next week or so I spent my time projecting out of my body, raising kundalini energy in my spine up through my body and reading the lessons taught to Carlos Castaneda by the sorcerer don Juan.
I came across a monumental lesson while reading one of Carlos’ books. He said that people live in the worlds that they know. That everything in reality is what you know it to be. I tool this to mean that if you knew you could get cancer then you could. If you knew you were special then you were. In fact every little detail that you knew made reality what it was. It made perfect sense to me. He said that the teacher teaches the apprentice to shift that know into the unknown, letting go of the past to experience something new. The apprentice effectively shifts out of reality and into the new position he has discovered. Think about it, everything you know of life and reality is what it is because you know it to be real.
He went on to teach that the world is also made up of all of our judgements about everything. For example if you judge someone to be mean and cruel then so they will be. If you judge birds as intelligent and very aware then your experience with them would be as such. It made me wonder how everyone experiences things differently and has their own point of view. Their own judgements, their own knowingness, and their own perceptions, however everyone within the world, for the most part saw things similar. I figured that everyone together co-colletively holds the world together in the form it is in.
One night, while raising my kundalini energies I experienced a blockage in my spine. It felt as if an entity was trying to get into my spine and enter into my body. I knew thats crazy but that is what it felt like. The energy was blocked, stuck. Finally after some time I managed to free it but the energy was different. The energy was not so easily controllable. It went through my body and up out of my head. After some time of doing this I began redirecting the energy out of my head back into my spine as a complete circuit. It felt wonderful.
I began having realizations. I began learning things directly from the universe itself. Epiphanies, then madness. My mind was out of control. I realized that everything in the universe is completely connected to everything else. That everything is interwoven together. I saw that every thought you have reaches out into the universe directly to the source of your thoughts. Thoughts have power I realized. They reach out ito the world to form connections with everything and shape the world into form. Just as did our judgements and our knowingness. I realized that rationality kept the world in form. Stable. That one form of rational thoughts was just a construct that gave form to a formless essence. A blaank canvas of infinity. That rationality although a powerful tool, can also keep us locked directly in place. Rigid and bound. It is often the ones that reach outside the box that develop new and great insights. New perspectives n life and reality. Genius and madness being a fine line.
I tossed and turned for weeks on my bed, going mad with insight, paranoia, and delusional ideas. I believed everything that ran through my mind. Everything I was coming to know and learn I knew was real. It had to be because don Juan taught me that the world is what I know it to be. And let me tell ya I knew some crazy ideas in those weeks and would come to learn far more in the future.
I went outside feeling powerful and aware. I was so engrossed with my books nd studies that I wanted to do something powerful. I wanted to learn a feat of power. It was night time and the moon was shining full. I sat outside just under a maple tree with a hammock tied under it. I gazed up at the clouds passing over the moon, and they formed around the moon, offering a clear sight of the moon peeking out through the clouds and all at once I acted. I didnt know how and I didnt know why but I reached some point deep within me and forced the clouds to stp around the moon. Right when the moon was in the perfect center of the clearning i stopped the clouds dead in their tracks. It was power. At last. The force of my action nearly killed me. I felt shaken, taken back, and my mind felt like it would collapse. I knew right away that the sudden jolt out of reality into something more had nearly damaged my fragile mind. The rationality being broken down and made to do something impossible nearly collapsed my mind. My rationality could not handle it. Just as don Juan had taught me in the books. You see it was one of my first times witnessing my know in action. I knew don Juan was right when he taught me and thus he had influenced my know and forcing this experience upon me.
The experience left me reflecting on my know. It made me think of all the people who know bad things about life, themselves, and reality. People who dont know any better. People who inadvertently will upon themselves bad events and things not right. I made it my point from then on to use my new position of awareness wisely, and try to use my choice when it came to these matters. I would not know I can catch a cold, or worse yet cancer. I would not know I can die easily. I would not know my friends could be killers. I would not judge the world harshly and unwisely. I would use the power of my know, my judgements and my thoughts wisely, and choose what it is I know.
That night I went for a walk into town. I lived just outside of town. I began thinking of an old friend on the walk, a friend that lived in town. He and I had been arrested many times. For some strange reason I began to wonder if he had ever killed a man. I came to the conclusion that he had. I felt very righteous and wanted to do something about it. Call the police or something. I decided I would go over to his house and maybe confront him on it.
As I walked I began thinking of time. I wondered if you could see things, know things before they happened. I decided that since the world is what I know then the choice is up to me. I began listening to things around me, little sounds in the night. Sure enough I began hearing the sounds before they happened. It was a new form of attention. At first it was difficult to tell if it was the sound I was hearing first, or the pre-sound. It was only about half a second but I could hear things before the sounds actually occurred. I began wondering, with excitement, just how far into the future one could learn to see or hear.
I began running off to the side of the road, then kitty corner to the turn that led to the rod into town. I ran through the grasses and knew before I hit a pot hole in the ground and leapt right over it! Surely it would of jolted my leg and possibly injured my knee if I had ran into it. I kept running and picked up speed and then ran right into a mud puddle. I still needed practice with my new ability.
I reached my friend’s house and knocked on the door. Brian came to the door and gave me a hug and let me in. We proceeded to his bedroom and smoked a joint together. At first we talked a lil bit and then fell into a silence as our buzz crept over us. I decided to try to use telepathy on Brian and began talking to him in my mind. I watched closely to see if he could hear me. After one of my sentences to him he moved slightly and I thought he could hear me. He moved again in a way as if he were listening to me. It was enough to make me know! My know activated then and he could her me. I began telling him all the things I had been learning of and showing him my new powers. We sat in silent exchange for about half and hour. He then got up and said thanks for all the new information, sounds amazing. I knew absolutely that I had had my first telepathic experience.
We went back to silence and I began thinking of don Juan’s teachings. He had said time is the essence of attention. Time was something I wanted to learn about but the lesson I did not understand. I then remembered that he said if a sorcerer wants to do something then he simply intends to and then lets it go. I thought sure I will intend to learn it.
Pondering more and thinking about my last couple of weeks I felt almost overwhelmed. I wondered if I had died. Maybe this was the afterlife. I wasnt sure because all these impossible things were happening. I checked my pulse to see if I had one and I did. Right then the radio song sang “check my pulse to see if I’m still alive”. I knew right then that this was the essence of my attention in time. I was aghast. Surely I was dead I thought. The TV was also on in the room and I pondered more of time. The tv was on the news. I began thinking that God is like time, and God is all around us. I listened to the TV and it said the name Cassandra and mentioned abortions. I realized that this was one of my sins. I had abortions with a girl named Cassandra. The TV began going through various sins of my life.
I didnt know what to do. I knew I was dead or about to die and I was scared. Control your know I thought. Its out of control. I am insane!! This cant be happening. I looked over at Brian and he held a knife in his hand. I again remembered that he was a murderer and I knew he was going to kill me. Right when I knew that he began to move closer to me, very slowly. I was terrified. I knew if I could change my attention then I could lead time to another state. Brian, my reaper, death, was closing in. I knew I had to break my know, to change it. I had to break the essence of my attention. I looked away out the window because watching Brian with the knife come closer only made me know for sure I was about to die. I looked out the window and focused all my attention on something else. I felt my attention begin to shift away and let go of the impending doom and I realized my mistake. Wise knows only I thought!!! Brian is not a murderer I thought. Heck I commanded it. I commanded my know for the first time that night. I looked at Brian after a moment, and he sat back down. I was safe.
I decided I needed to leave and told Brian good bye. He walked me to the door and I happened to look up at the wall and saw a sign there that says no-one appreciates the things i do until i dont do them. I knew it was referring to Brian being Death. He looked at the sign, read my mind and broke out into gales of laughter and shut the door in my face.
I walked around outside for a while collecting myself. I began to wonder about time and space. Clearly I had traversed a dimension. I was in a place where time was the essence of attention. A place where apparently God was all around me. A place where Brian was a murderer, and then not one. I knew I had shifted my position of awareness into new positions. I felt like a sorcerer for the first time. If I had not been so shaken I would have felt happier. Even though my first shifts nearly killed me. I went home and went right to bed, vowing to be wiser with my know.
I was good at most things I set my mind to accomplishing. I didnt always start out good at things but could quickly master them given time. I had ADHD growing up and was quite a troublesome youth. A handful to my parents I was in and out of juvenile detention centers from the age of 15 into adulthood.

I reached my friend’s house and knocked on the door. Brian came to the door and gave me a hug and let me in. We proceeded to his bedroom and smoked a joint together. At first we talked a lil bit and then fell into a silence as our buzz crept over us. I decided to try to use telepathy on Brian and began talking to him in my mind. I watched closely to see if he could hear me. After one of my sentences to him he moved slightly and I thought he could hear me. He moved again in a way as if he were listening to me. It was enough to make me know! My know activated then and he could her me. I began telling him all the things I had been learning of and showing him my new powers. We sat in silent exchange for about half and hour. He then got up and said thanks for all the new information, sounds amazing. I knew absolutely that I had had my first telepathic experience.
We went back to silence and I began thinking of don Juan’s teachings. He had said time is the essence of attention. Time was something I wanted to learn about but the lesson I did not understand. I then remembered that he said if a sorcerer wants to do something then he simply intends to and then lets it go. I thought sure I will intend to learn it.
Pondering more and thinking about my last couple of weeks I felt almost overwhelmed. I wondered if I had died. Maybe this was the afterlife. I wasnt sure because all these impossible things were happening. I checked my pulse to see if I had one and I did. Right then the radio song sang “check my pulse to see if I’m still alive”. I knew right then that this was the essence of my attention in time. I was aghast. Surely I was dead I thought. The TV was also on in the room and I pondered more of time. The tv was on the news. I began thinking that God is like time, and God is all around us. I listened to the TV and it said the name Cassandra and mentioned abortions. I realized that this was one of my sins. I had abortions with a girl named Cassandra. The TV began going through various sins of my life.
I didnt know what to do. I knew I was dead or about to die and I was scared. Control your know I thought. Its out of control. I am insane!! This cant be happening. I looked over at Brian and he held a knife in his hand. I again remembered that he was a murderer and I knew he was going to kill me. Right when I knew that he began to move closer to me, very slowly. I was terrified. I knew if I could change my attention then I could lead time to another state. Brian, my reaper, death, was closing in. I knew I had to break my know, to change it. I had to break the essence of my attention. I looked away out the window because watching Brian with the knife come closer only made me know for sure I was about to die. I looked out the window and focused all my attention on something else. I felt my attention begin to shift away and let go of the impending doom and I realized my mistake. Wise knows only I thought!!! Brian is not a murderer I thought. Heck I commanded it. I commanded my know for the first time that night. I looked at Brian after a moment, and he sat back down. I was safe.
I decided I needed to leave and told Brian good bye. He walked me to the door and I happened to look up at the wall and saw a sign there that says no-one appreciates the things i do until i dont do them. I knew it was referring to Brian being Death. He looked at the sign, read my mind and broke out into gales of laughter and shut the door in my face.
I walked around outside for a while collecting myself. I began to wonder about time and space. Clearly I had traversed a dimension. I was in a place where time was the essence of attention. A place where apparently God was all around me. A place where Brian was a murderer, and then not one. I knew I had shifted my position of awareness into new positions. I felt like a sorcerer for the first time. If I had not been so shaken I would have felt happier. Even though my first shifts nearly killed me. I went home and went right to bed, vowing to be wiser with my know.
