Re: "Shaman"-Science Correlates?
These are some insights to the chatGPT-posed question, "Please analyze this upload of Carlos Castaneda's writings on the teachings of the person called "don Juan Matus." Look for parallels in society, literature, film, religion, spirituality, and science. Particularly with science, ex...

Re: "Shaman"-Science Correlates?
In the story of don Juan from Carlos Castaneda's books, all people act as a part of this "internet" of reality by collectively enforcing our shared description of everything, which in turn guides our awareness. To his lineage of Toltec-borne seers/explorers of consciousness, all the univer...

"Shaman"-Science Correlates?
I'm not sure how the forum feels about Castaneda, these days. In the mainstream world, he's been reclassified as fiction--but so is most everything we think and talk about to mainstream people. I feel that he made some blunders as a professional and author, not the least of which was to name all his...

Re: How Much of it is Human/Covert?
To the first, ahh, I see. No pun intended. I've read of such extra sight in books like We, the Arcturians . I think humans have more recently begun to develop such organs, or at least have them available for development. It takes considerable work and doesn't often happen, but I've experienced it. T...

Re: How Much of it is Human/Covert?
I am not sure that is the best dichotomy. Once I had an inner plane look at the supreme body of a dictatorship and saw only 3 genuine humans out of perhaps 10 at the table. The rest were passing as human to propagate the purposes of their own groups. What do you mean by "inner plane look?"...

Re: How Much of it is Human/Covert?
On exopolitics.org there is a statement that most military institutions are contaminated but that a group within the US Navy is relatively clean, particularly from several years in deep space interacting with profound alien groups. That has given rise to the Artemis Accords Thanks for this new aven...

How Much of it is Human/Covert?
More recently, I've delved into the ideas of Dr. Steven Greer and the notion of extraterrestrials being peaceful and contactable with sincere, meditative intent. However, what seems to come with his "CE5" is the idea that covert (rogue) human operations have been taking place without discl...

Re: Mind Over Matter
The universe seems to be a single energetic conduit. Whether calling or banishing, getting help or approval from a water spirit, concentrating energy on an effect (prayer/chanting/etc.), or speaking audible words to a friend, everything is touching, so to speak, with no need for an intermediary medi...

Re: Can wizards wear ten gallon hats?
Oh, I'm just a wee lil wizard still, better stick to fedoras. Bamboo hats when I'm in China. Not that a wizard should wear large hats, nor even pointy hats—stylish though they may be—but a hat needs a head, and a head a hat. And if one would wear a hat, why not make a big impression. People would ne...

Re: When do you stop believing?
Reptillian's way works well for him/her. That's pretty cool to have such full ideas about how to go about it. Many spend their entire lives trying to get at life through a spell, and fail dismally. I choose to believe that everything in the whole of my experience is not as it seems, but that's more ...

Re: Can you help but do evil? I do not see how. Do you?
Howdy Bomoss. Evil is possible to avoid, simply by choosing to believe or "realize," if you will (at least for the self), that good and evil are a false dichotomy. It's only evil in point of view, in opinion. If evil does exist, it's far too much fun to cause mischief not to develop both p...

I would think that you're totally crazy, unless you're not, in which case it's normal like Vashta said. I used to see blips and for lack of a better word, "glitches" in my vision. Learned to tune them out and only see them when I wanted.
