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. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness253 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: “The power that governs the destiny of all living beings is called the Eagle … The Eagle is devouring the awareness of all the creatures that, alive on Earth a moment before and now dead, have floated to the Eagle’s beak, like a ceaseless swarm of fireflies, to meet their owner, their reason for having had life … for awareness is the Eagle’s food.” This seems like an incomplete description of the Creator of All That Is. 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 Consciousness263 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 Consciousness282 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 Consciousness335 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.

What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness258 views0 answers0 votesCreator has said repeatedly, that life force energy flows from the divine realm to keep all of us alive at a bare minimum. 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 Consciousness279 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 Consciousness332 views0 answers0 votesAmericans spend enormous amounts of money, time, and energy in the pursuit of fun and recreation. So much importance has been placed on this, that it appears to have muscled out spiritual pursuits, in particular. Instead of going to church, people are going to the lake, to the game, to the cabin, or to the amusement park. How much blame can be placed on an overemphasis on the pursuit of recreation, for the lack of interest in spiritual ambitions?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Divine Guidance319 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Source Creator, how should I dispose of various crystals in my possession? Is there any specific method required for those known to attract dark energies such as Selenite, Black Tourmaline, and Obsidian? What about disposing of less powerful or less harmful crystals? Are they safe to enjoy for their beauty alone?”ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Prayer318 views0 answers0 votesA practitioner writes: “In the database, I see there are many people who ask if their prayers are effective. Whenever folk are experiencing or forming a request, thought, opinion, belief, appreciation, fear, or any other number of feelings, energetic changes are altering things instantaneously. It’s impossible for this not to happen. If we believe a request is not being given attention, that belief is also setting things into motion, even if that motion means there will be no motion (make sense?). There is no separation between us (all consciousness), the environment, and Creator of All That Is. It makes me sad when I see that some people believe God is only “out there.” That’s not the case. There must be a simple way to convey this concept, so that it is internalized and becomes as fundamental as is our understanding that we need to breathe to live. Can creator provide a suggestion?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer352 views0 answers0 votesI have been told twice by a psychic medium that I was Allan Kardec in a previous life, who founded the Spiritist Movement that is still active around the world today.
