It is equally false to judge the worth of a work of art by the fact that the artist created it in, say, a psychotic phase of his life.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics233 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “Man should not ask what he may expect from life, but should rather understand that life expects something from him.” Can Creator share with us what Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol require from the human individual? In other words, what remains within the domain of the individual to work out? Is it true that prayer and the LHP can make choices and leaps of faith easier, but cannot MAKE those choices? Are the choices themselves, the leaps of faith, left to the individual to accomplish as in the saying, you can lead a horse to water, but cannot make it drink?

Wikipedia has this to say about Dr. Castaneda: His … “books were ethnographic accounts describing his apprenticeship with a traditional ‘Man of Knowledge’ identified as Don Juan Matus, allegedly a Yaqui Indian from Northern Mexico. The veracity of these books was doubted from their original publication, and they are now widely considered to be fictional.” Yet for anyone who takes serious time to study his works, it seems almost impossible to draw that same conclusion. What is Creator’s perspective on Castaneda and his life’s work?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness258 views0 answers0 votesIt seems incredible, to live our western secular lives, and be almost completely ignorant of the extraordinary spiritual heritage possessed by American indigenous peoples. Castaneda’s mentor, Don Juan Matus, is a most mysterious figure indeed. From the time of the Spaniard Cortez, indigenous shamanistic traditions have been brutally suppressed and pushed into the background. Castaneda writes of Don Juan in The Eagle’s Gift: “He told me that if I wanted to fly, I had to summon the intent of flying. He showed me then how he himself could summon it, and jumped in the air and soared in a circle, like a huge kite. Or he would make things appear in his hand. He said he knew the intent of many things and could call those things by intending them.” All this sounds extraordinary, but we know Jesus could do these things. The Hindus have a word “siddi” to describe these capabilities that we regard as “miraculous.” The message was that these abilities were obtainable by anyone with access to a knowledgeable mentor, and who was willing to dedicate themselves fully to the pursuit.

Without mastery of the dream world, there could not be mastery of the physical world. Nearly all of Castaneda’s training was focused on gaining mastery of the dream world, or the “second attention” as Don Juan called it. It is assumed that the second attention is a synonym for our intuitive faculties. Our waking state is the first attention. Mastery of the second attention or intuitive faculties was the principal pursuit of the shaman and the source of his knowledge and ability to be used in service to his people. The sorcerer, on the other hand, is one who works to attain the same mastery, but only to serve the self and the pursuit of power and control over others.

Accurate to a point, but missing the quality of love, and the desire on the part of Creator for partnership with his creations. This is further reflected in this passage: “The Eagle, that power that governs the destinies of all living things, reflects equally at once all those living things. There is no way, therefore, for man to pray to the Eagle, to ask favors, to hope for grace. The human part of the Eagle is too insignificant to move the whole.” As powerful as he was, was Don Juan missing the forest for the trees? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness240 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: Don Juan “said that there is nothing more dangerous than the evil fixation of the second attention (or evil mastery of the intuitive faculties). When warriors (or seekers/seers or shaman/sorcerers) learn to focus on the weak side of the second attention nothing can stand in their way. They become hunters of men, ghouls. Even if they are no longer alive, they can reach for their prey through time as if they were present here and now.” How big is the problem of dead evil sorcerers? Are these some of the human hybrid spirits that seem to have partnered with the fallen angelics? If they were particularly adept sorcerers when alive, might their powers even exceed that of some of the fallen angelics, similar in the way that Anunnaki spirits manage to control and repurpose the fallen angelics for evil aims?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness257 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: “… all archaeological ruins in Mexico, especially the pyramids, were harmful to modern man. He (Don Juan) depicted the pyramids as foreign expressions of thought and action. He said that every item, every design in them, was a calculated effort to record aspects of attention that were totally alien to us. For Don Juan, it was not only ruins of past cultures that held a dangerous element in them, anything which was the object of an obsessive concern had a harmful potential.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness296 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: “Your compulsion to possess and hold on to things is not unique, he (Don Juan) said. ‘Everyone who wants to follow the warrior’s path, the sorcerer’s way, has to rid himself of this fixation.’ My benefactor told me that there was a time when warriors did have material objects on which they placed their obsession. And that gave rise to the question of whose object would be more powerful, or the most powerful of them all. Remnants of those objects still remain in the world, the leftovers of that race for power.” For a tourist to pick up such an object found in ancient ruins and take it home, can be dangerous in the extreme.

Castaneda wrote that “Life force flows to us from the south, and leaves us flowing to the north.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness250 views0 answers0 votesIt’s clear that the path of the shaman, as described by Castaneda, is a quite foreign, potentially dangerous spiritual pursuit not supported by or even compatible with modern life. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer Work and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the safer and easier way to eventually achieve the same goals pursued by the shamanic seers of indigenous peoples? Will a more modern, easier, and safer shamanism path emerge after the interlopers have left, and before ascension of humanity, assuming we get there?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness299 views0 answers0 votesToday’s questions for Creator were taken from Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl’s transcendent account of his time in a Nazi concentration camp, his book, Man’s Search for Meaning. Frankl was already a successful psychiatrist when he entered the camps as a captured Jew. He was to later learn that his entire family died in the camps and he emerged the sole survivor. He endured great suffering. But while it’s safe to assume that he was resolving personal karma through this incredible trial and travail, he also approached the experience as an opportunity, a “divine mission” to put it plainly. To study evil up close and personal, to learn all he could, and to try and find a means by which it might be conquered. What is Creator’s perspective and what was the mix of karma and mission life that Frankl navigated?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics381 views0 answers0 votes
