And I was a sorcerer. I had paid for my life for the mistake of not knowing I was a sorcerer, and that sorcerers never approach anyone. From that day on,I have only accepted the company or care of people who are dead, as I am" - Don Juan (Power Of Silence pg 194) This really hit me just recently. The story of Don Juan dying in the fields and leaving his old life. Realizing the company that is chosen can be so uplifting or so filled with misdirection and "The same old thing". En

I love the idea of being around those who are empty. My girlfriend and best friend phillip are the closest thing i know to emptyness in terms of people i have the opportunity to interact with in person. It is such a blessed joy to be around them when they are near. What i dont understand about that post En, is why a sorcerer wouldnt approach someone? What if we didnt approach Lujan for instance, but saught what he had to transfer and share. In the world which we must trot within, it would seem that daily we must be the approachers? No? Am i missing a core, Are these words taken at face value?

Both theses initial meetings were propelled by the impersonal as it was by chance that I met either, yet at the same time deep down I was seeking to approach knowledge and find my heart at that stage. To approach or not not approach should be governed by spirit and heart it seems. En

Agenda governed by imprints....fear? Craving? Or impulses from the emptiness of eternity? Self examination helps discern the difference...developing a feel for it. It seems to me that the progressive relinquishing of my personal agenda opens doors multilaterally...so that approach is more of that from eternity to the one who is empty. Empty conduit. So, its not that one approaches....one is approached. From our perspective, the approach is in the emptying process.

No one can look into them + no one can see where they are looking.. So you can stare at someone as you walk right past them without them even knowing.... But i swear i still feel it. My eyes are super sensitive to light, on a bright day i am always squinting, ever since i was a child. I should wear sun glasses but i dont, but i do love to not be accessible through my eyes, people seem much more comfortable with me... All posts submitted by Kyle Milliken © copyright. 2005

Posts: 675 (05/19/09 17:25:03) Moderator Guardian Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	It is good to not feel guilty for what we are seeing and not allowing a maneuver of hiding and then find ourselves comfortable that we are not hiding,I find when this happens and the only intent being given through the eyes is clear and not interfering people respond in a different way to them, many people will start conversations or say hello here, and I dont feel any need to be innaccessible that way , I would just remove myself otherwise. Why do you feel like being innaccessible this way? Perhaps where you live is different to here, or perhaps sometimes our perception of what we will encounter in others is just a projection of our own .

And via this believe of security the secret becomes blatantly obvious. Transparency leads to true inaccessibility, the gates are wide open to be looked at into ones very core, yet theirs nothing to be seen. And that nothingness peers back into the very core of the one who looked at it and unravels everything in it's reflection. Inaccessibility has nothing to hide.

Posts: 60 (05/20/09 16:17:40) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Here is the traduction of the quote from the Conversations with Carlos Castaneda book, i try to tracuce it, i hope you understand it... ''To protect oneself from radiation, the sorcerer usually adopt strange habits. Some of them uses objets of power with the aim of divert the weight of foreign attention. Juan Tuma get used to use dark glasses ''to not squander energy through the eyes''. The true value of this caution is that in this way he create a barrier between him and the rest and leave to be accessible.'' He is talking about the exchange of energy and then he says - tell me with who you are with and i tell you who you are-. He says that our interactions can free us or can eslave us.
