The Sorcerer's Explanation is here



http://aquakeys.com/tolte...3-sorcerers-explaination





And i end with this quote:





"Only the love for this splendorous being can give freedom to a warrior's spirit; and freedom is joy, efficiency, and abandon in the face of any odds. That is the last lesson. It is always left for the very last moment, for the moment of ultimate solitude when a man faces his death and his aloneness. Only then does it make sense."

I have nothing to add for in this thread, but You can write me a PM if there is something to be cleared.

in my experience "my own description also" , an "inner light " can be found "realised" , when the inner light matches and realises its connection to everything at a sweeter frequency , it can flood the bodies , and connect with all time . disintegrating and integrating .

Also in my experience , there are different facets and "bodies" , for instance , there is one i have witnessed being shifted "in my understand" superceeded i suppose which can contain pain and emotional stores.

this can be flooded with light and released also " or realised" .

However i wonder about the permanacy , that makes me also wonder , as with the bodies releasing memory , and the recaptulation , resides in different segments , although ultimately a whole .

As it is with the physical body storing memories and trauma also . Work with the body and memories will be released to be dealt with in the process .



This is how i relate to what is said about the seeds in the store house consciousness being contained within the 8 layers consciousness .

I like it...though must confess, this is my favorite part



"when the inner light matches and realises its connection to everything at a sweeter frequency , it can flood the bodies , and connect with all time . disintegrating and integrating"



Someonesaysomething 'bout energetic "facts"? That's a funny sounding word...try to listen to the track. It's front door is open, but its closed in the back. Easy on the entry till you find out its a trap.

How can we speak of experience ?



for me it can be spoken of in the transitional experience . with the senses associated .



I awoke in another bed some where , and when i did so ,

i was flooded with light within that room ,

and also aware of being flooded with light within the room i slept which i was familiar.

and also aware that i existed within all time .

LOL and that i ceased and existed at the same time moments before , and also that the words for that part mean ****.



I will go ahead and assume the female aspect of creation , is alive and interconnected . creative even .



Yes. beyond understanding . see a chakra portal .

Ah , you remind me of passing memories of thought . Musings .



Power - Clarity - fear -



take just one of these ingredients , and pass it into being , and determine what will be done with this direction ?



Also , look at pure creativity , now take this away in a pure sense "hypothetically" and all hell might break loose. LOL

I have something to add on essence, sense, meaning of Don Juans teachings, as its an imperative giving the sense and meaning, a touch of universal Spirit.



A man, any man, deserves everything that is a man's lot: joy, pain, sadness, and struggle.



The nature of his acts is unimportant as long as he acts as a warrior. If his spirit is distorted he should simply fix it- purge it, make it perfect- because there is no other task in our entire lives which is more worthwhile. Not to fix the spirit is to seek death, and that is the same as to seek nothing, since death is going to overtake us regardless of anything.



To seek the perfection of the warrior's spirit is the only task worthy of our temporariness, and our manhood.







If you read on warriors spirit, Don Juans words, its humanity itself, spirit of man, its good.





In buddhism, in Dharma, the good and evil are defined simply as skillful=good and unskilful=evil - action of speech, body and mind.



In this regard, the marker of truth, the truth, to find the truth means to be happy.





Its a path of heart.





Anything is one of a million paths. Therefore, as warriors we must always keep in mind that a path is only a path. If we feel that we should not follow it, we must not stay with it under any conditions.



Our decision to keep on a path or to leave it must be free of fear or ambition. We must look at every path closely and deliberately. There is a question that a warrior has to ask, mandatory: Does this path have a heart?





All paths are the same. They lead nowhere. A path without a heart is never enjoyable.



On the other hand, a path with heart is easy: It does not make a warrior work at liking it. As long as a man follows a path with heart, he is one with it.











The hardest thing in the world is to assume the mood of a warrior. It is of no use to be sad and complain and feel justified in doing so; believing that someone is always doing something to us.



Nobody is doing anything to anybody, much less to a warrior.







To read the quotations from the wheel of time book, Don Juans words on warriors spirit this morning was very refreshing.

A warrior chooses a path with heart, any path with heart, and follows it; and then he rejoices and laughs. He knows, because he sees, that his life will be over altogether too soon. He sees that nothing is more important than anything else.





A warrior is only a man; a humble man. He cannot change the designs of his death. But his impeccable spirit, which has stored power after stupendous hardships, can certainly hold his death for a moment; a moment long enough to let him rejoice for the last time in recalling his power. We may say that that is a gesture which death has with those who have an impeccable spirit.

I like the most these Don Juans words.





For a warrior there is no end to the mystery of being, whether being means being a pebble, or an ant, or oneself. That is a warrior's humbleness. One is equal to everything.

He was really extraordinary among naguals, and in all his lineage, for his wisdom.

Moco: You have dichotomy (dualism) and interconnectness physical body (consists of thousands of chakras) and energy body. And You have the sheats of energy on the physical body. In this manner, the chakras ("chakra portal") of physical give input to energy body and to store-house consc. (8 consciousness), thus giving direct input into "karma process" (karma is action of speech, both bodies of dichotomy/energy, and mind. If You have seen the Blueberry film, there is visualisation in the end how his mind is cleared, the input of FI in the mind, FI is blablabla.. zazen or pressure/rigpa/meditation of inner silence clears it) - thus chakras of physical body thru our action give direct input into energy body/bodies/sheats/layers/8 consciousness and thus giving input into trasformation process itself, e.g. how one becomes transformed into a ghost or demon thru his/her life past the gateway of death, in the intermediate state (bardo) where this trasformation process happens (also the transformation of a complete seer or going past the Eagle happens here, according to the legend so to speak), so this particular mechanism, the transformations of beings and their reappearing or cyclical being, and this is directly visible from deep inner silence (samadhi; when you have cleared the head chakra, the "enlightment" or realization, "sorcerers vanquishing of a mind"), its visible for this realized seer (with a "clear head"/chakra) thru another type of seeing belonging to deep inner silence (samadhi). Also "celestial" eye its called in an ancient Yoga/Buddhism tradition. You can see all the beings, Gods included, e.g. Radiant Gods.

The totality of ourselves is a very mysterious affair. We need only a very small portion of it to fulfill the most complex tasks of life. Yet when we die, we die with the totality of ourselves.







So why, why not to live in this totality of oneself....... ?

Zazen (the best silent meditation) is the easy way. True comfort of our life in this regard - of inner silence/silent knowledge, reaching the totality of oneself.

Before I even came here I learned that Spirit sent through another being is likely distorted. I don't follow mediums, channelers because of this, although I have listened to it, and reflected what is useful.



"That is not the residue I am talking about," he said, laughing. "The idea of the abstract, the spirit, is the only residue that is important. The idea of the personal self has no value whatsoever. You still put yourself and your own feelings first. Every time I've had the chance, I have made you aware of the need to abstract. You have always believed that I meant to think abstractly. No. To abstract means to make yourself available to the spirit by being aware of it."

The internal dialogue/blablabla is what grounds people in the daily world. The world is such and such or so and so, only because we talk to ourselves about its being such and such or so and so. The passageway into the world of shamans opens up after the warrior has learned to shut off his internal dialogue.





To change our idea of the world is the crux of shamanism. And stopping the internal dialogue is the only way to accomplish it.





When a warrior learns to stop the internal dialogue, everything becomes possible; the most far-fetched schemes become attainable.

A warrior takes his lot, whatever it may be, and accepts it in ultimate humbleness. He accepts in humbleness what he is, not as grounds for regret but as a living challenge.



The self-confidence of the warrior is not the self-confidence of the average man. The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness. The average man is hooked to his fellow men, while the warrior is hooked only to infinity.



A warrior must love this world, in order for this world that seems so commonplace to open up and show its wonders.

Moco,



Just meant, as a personal musing was humming upon, that "fact" is a strong word. But that's just from my humble perspective. When I've seen the abstract (again...just from this perspective...which is one amongst myriad, to be sure) there was nothing fixed whatsoever....it all just perennially flowed with beauty and intelligence. It was unbridled in every way imaginable. I see the value in communicating in a cohesive way about what we see...where the consensus is given we are with each other, encouraging each other, supporting each other for the time being. But that word "fact" has a feeling of conceit behind it that may....just may...prove to be troublesome at a given point of departure. I don't know....just a feeling I get that a little song emerged from.

i was meaning deep inner silence thats it. rather silent meditation - very good is a darkness for that, i.e. accumulate the inner silence in the darkness, dark room / closet (not in a mexican cave)





accumulation, not a pressure or waterfall jump. walking, drawing, running, listening, swimming, asanas, playing, sex - possible.



How to sit zazen /dhyana with crossed legs and cushion under buttocks (Gotama Buddha had used bag of dried grass) - crossed legs enough, dont kill your knees, just put one foot on a calf - 30 minutes then a short walk and change the leg.
