Every time I entered into heightened awareness I could not cease marveling at the difference
between my two sides. I always felt as if a veil had been lifted from my eyes, as if I had been
partially blind before and now I could see. The freedom, the sheer joy that used to possess me on
those occasions cannot be compared with anything else I have ever experienced. Yet at the same
time, there was a frightening feeling of sadness and longing that went hand in hand with that
freedom and joy.
Don Juan had told me that
there is no completeness without sadness and longing
for without them there is no sobriety,
no kindness.
Wisdom without kindness, he said,
and knowledge without sobriety are useless.
The organization of his teachings for the left side also required that don Juan, together with
some of his fellow seers, explain to me the three facets of their knowledge:
the mastery of awareness
the mastery of stalking,
and the mastery of intent.
May we find a way here to engage the mastery of stalking and mastery of intent here.
mastery of awareness there is possible to focus on in Ravenfield and Zen magnetics, yet it could be sharper!
