To seek freedom is
the only driving force i know. Freedom to fly off into that infinity
out there. Freedom to dissolve; to lift off; to be like the flame
of a candle, which, in spite of being up against the light of
a billion stars, remains intact, because it never pretended to
be more than what it is: a mere candle."
Don Juan (Carlos Castaneda)
We are a feeling, an awareness encased here.
Don Juan (Carlos Castaneda)
It doesn't matter what one reveals or what one keeps to oneself.
Everything we do, everything we are, rests on our personal power.
If we don't have enough personal power the most magnificent piece of wisdom
can be revealed to us and it won't make a damn bit of difference.
Don Juan (Carlos Castaneda)
Do you know at this very moment you are surrounded by eternity?
And do you know that you can use that eternity if you so desire?
Don Juan (Carlos Castaneda)
it's better to get something worthwhile done using deception
than to fail to get something worthwhile done using truth.
Don Juan (Carlos Castaneda)
Impeccability isnothing else but the proper use of energy - Don Juan (Carlos Castaneda))
Inner silence works from the moment you begin to accrue it. What the old sorcerers were after was the final dramatic, end result of reaching that individual threshold of silence. Some very talented practitioners need only a few minutes of silence to reach that coveted goal. Others, less talented, need long periods of silence, perhaps more than one hour of quietude,before they reach the desired result. The desired result is what the old sorcerers called "stopping the world", the moment when everything around us ceases to be what it's always been. This is the moment when sorcerers return to the TRUE nature of man. The old sorcerers always called it "total freedom" Don Juan (Carlos Castanada)
