Don Juan talks about three other enemies to becoming a man of knowledge. But before we explore those, we know the fallen angelics and the billions of members of the Extraterrestrial Alliance are depraved. Sitting Bull said that depravity was a state of mind that is capable of experiencing pleasure only through instigating or vicariously witnessing the suffering of others. There is no other source of pleasure to the depraved mind. Are all depraved beings also fearful, or have some of them conquered fear as Don Juan suggests, the direct question being, “Are there fearless depraved beings?” If there are, that would appear to be a formidable foe indeed. What can Creator tell us?

This is a key insight to understand and to embrace. The description of your adversaries, the fallen angelics and the physical Extraterrestrial Alliance members, as being depraved is literally true. They are functional psychopaths because they are devoid of any awareness of the divine and divine principles and, as such, have been corrupted and run their worlds through power alone. They are loveless beings devoid of compassion and it makes them ruthless. At the same time, relying solely on power weakens them because theirs is a fragile and uncertain existence when they are surrounded by fellow beings just as ruthless and self-serving as they are personally, and in danger of being stabbed in the back, literally. So your adversaries, despite having the upper hand of power and control because they are advanced technologically and more intelligent, they are cowardly, and that creates an opportunity for humanity to use as leverage in countering their dark aims, but it very directly and powerfully illustrates the correlation you are making with these teachings, that seeking power as an answer and priority in conducting one's affairs is a hollow pursuit that will create many distortions and ultimately cannot be sustained. This is why empires come and go, because their entire structure is built on power and in service to power and lacks substance, because power is never an end in itself but a means to an end and cannot be sustained, because it is usually taking things out of balance and creating instability that will be reckoned with by the Law of Karma to restore harmful consequences, and this will be at the expense of the perpetrators who are power-hungry and blind to its downside to the self.
