Fractalum an interview published in Mexico, in October 1999.
practitioners Mexico City sent a series of questions to the instructors Cleargreen tensegrity. The joint questionnaire concerns of a diverse nature which cross the minds of those who in one way or another we are interested in making the proposal of Carlos Castaneda a pattern of life possible. Not all questions or concerns that were raised are the feelings of all practitioners. But surely all the answers are meaningful to everyone.
learners Carlos Castaneda referred to the questionnaire as "the first of a series because there were" more questions that can be answered in only one copy of the magazine. "And they leave open the possibility of providing more answers later, in another space, and through the following website: practicantesmexico@cleargreen.com
Fractalum: We the practitioners feel a desire for communication and close friendship with you, without falling into the socialization. At some point, this proximity has become a "taboo" that has generated a certain shyness that manifests as a difficulty in formulating questions and concerns directly.
Tensegrity instructors: As we overcome that shyness - all of us! Instructors are responsible for that, and it is time for us to move in a new direction. It's a new era, and we are all sailing together. Perceptions and experiences of you are key. We help point the direction that we all have to move. And the glue that will keep us together to navigate the abstract affection.
FR: There is the question of whether you have a clear conscience at the tone, on the course or the new direction, "you read in the infinite, or how they know?
IT: We're sailing. The Nagual as compared with being in front of a train as it comes time to face us. This train is a bit different than most because there are no lanes - The find as you go. Energy and we read where flow today - not where it flowed yesterday. How do we know if we are following this flow? Because when we move in that direction, things work. If you do not work, we're not there - or change direction instantly. The Nagual gave us some guidelines. Imbued each of his apprentices in specific facets of their knowledge, leading each to read energy according to your choice. This means that none of us can see for himself the direction in which we are moving, we must work together, and yet every one of us has to carry their own weight and be, what Nagual called, energy available, watching the front of the train. "Be my eyes and ears!" told us. Now we have to be the eyes and ears for others. Infinity is the pointing direction to take. Following your flow is the challenge that we face - the practitioners as instructors. The students of Don Juan we are monitoring this effort, as he did Florinda Matus with students of Don Juan after he had left. For practitioners, participating in a group practice of Tensegrity is a way to push toward the front of the train. We used to have a leader to give us orders. So By working together, without the leader, we are entering a new field, we are moving our assemblage points. We may be at the front of the train in our work, at home, in every facet of our lives. This is not an easy road to take. The Nagual told us to keep the purpose of a no one to send, telling us what to do personal purposes, requires a courage of steel. We muriéndonos to have an authority close to us to interpret things for us, take care of the details and give us orders.
FR: A lot of longing for the presence of witches that manifests itself in many ways, from doubt to sadness. Is there any possibility that meet again?
IT: The students of Don Juan told us that whoever wants to can find them in the place of no compassion. This does not mean strength, but rather means lack of self-pity, or lack of compassion for the other person, based on the idea that we are in better condition. It also means that we stand side by side, not for loading or rescue us but facing the same direction: toward the infinite. They said this is our time, they can only guide us - we who must act.
FR: There are people who were near the Nagual, compared with its absence have a sense of loss, as if the bird of freedom was gone.
IT: If the bird of freedom was gone, there would be any opening for us to talk with you, nor for seminars about the magical passes. The same Carlos Castaneda Don Juan felt discouraged when he left, about which he wrote in The Wheel of Time. But could not afford to surrender it. "A warrior acknowledges his pain," he once said Don Juan, "but not delivered to him. The mood of the warrior who goes into the unknown is not sadness, on the contrary, rejoices because his great luck makes you feel humble. " As a unified body of practitioners, we are entering the unknown. Each of us has to decide whether I want to do - run with joy behind the bird of freedom, with no guarantees of being able to reach it. For us, this is something exquisite.
FR: Many people feel that interest in doing business is more prevalent than the interest in maintaining the premises of the Nagual, especially the search for freedom outside the social order, that money rules about life.
IT: The Nagual told us: The one company for a warrior is freedom. So we are not tied to any policy of making money, nor to any other policy. We continue to energy as it flows in the universe. At this point, the opening to present the magical passes and exposing everything Carlos Castaneda taught us - things that we have barely begun to address - is through seminars on the magical passes. Presenting a seminar entails certain costs. The Nagual told us we, like many practitioners, who for some years he had taught the magical passes for free. No one practiced. Took them as a novelty, nothing more. Found that when people paid money to learn the magical passes, then I listened. People began practicing the magical passes with fervor and form practice groups. Following the path of the warrior became something that could be distinguished from an isolated effort or a weak secret I wish that seemed impossible. This marked the beginning of a new era: a unified body of practitioners.
FR: The proposal of Infinity "is a concept, or a real possibility?
IT: Several of us at any time you put this question to Nagual. "I do not believe it," he said. "Do not travel only in your mind. Find out for yourself!"
FR: We know that celibacy is an individual task, but is there magic or breathing passages to facilitate the change of direction when hormones become unbearable? Male practitioners who are strongly attracted to "little girls" wanted to hear more comments about this issue, and how to leave behind socialization.
IT: On a similar nature, we will answer these questions together. The Nagual told us that there is no way to get rid of our desires, nor could we leave behind our socialization. The dodge, and use them to our advantage. Why not work together as man and woman to increase our consciousness, rather than remain locked into rigid roles and behaviors that prevent us from dreaming? The challenge of interacting with each other without trying to control or possessed another is much larger than follow the usual track of courtship. Requires much more imagination. The seers recommend celibacy for young practitioners because we are trained to focus on sexuality from the perspective of an investor. "I do this for you if you do that for me." Or: "I love you madly and forever until you look at someone else." Carlos Castaneda consider this a travesty - blend the best of our energy to another being, as an investment? No, he said. For the visionaries, the only way to have a sexual union with another being was from the position of total love, without expectations. He said that this requires a courage of steel, and it's not for babies warriors. In the sexual act is power lines - lines of affection that are created between partner. If both are not empty of personal expectations, these lines are broken and cause mayhem in the body, especially for women. Throw in another two or three partners, or even more, and will have a real problem here. All the magical passes help us be more aware of the nature of our desires - most notably in a series of magical passes called The Code of the Shamans of Ancient Mexico, that we will introduce and practice at the seminar. These magical passes us with the awareness that each of us has to "Mommy" and "daddy" in, in our DNA. Help us get out of boring design pattern, the self that seeks out him the vitality it has, but not used. Scientists tell us that only use a small percentage of our DNA - less than 5%. What about the other 95%? Why not find out what's there?
FR: Are there specific strategies to stay focused during the recap? How to break our resistance to the summary?
IT: We can increase our focus and break our resistance to breaking our usual recap of the recap to a painful burden. Enjoy it! The Nagual sometimes we suggested a new task. If it was a hot day, or if we were tired, it happened we responded, "Okay, try to do it." "No," he would say. "Warriors do not address. Try. They do. And do not invest." Summing lighten our load by getting rid of our personal history and our customs, which makes our assemblage points to become fluid. How could this be boring or heavy? Because we approach the task with our old opinions that lead us to believe that rewards are only a result of deep suffering. The Nagual taught us that everything around us could help us see our lives - movies, interactions, memories, meals, fantasies. Each is like a snapshot of our own patterns. What was it that moved you in that movie? What was that thing that you overlooked, and someone else did note? What was it that bothered you in the conversation you had at the time of the meal? These are clear signs to guide us to see our own actions. Before you judge someone else, have the discipline to take a look at ourselves and see what we're doing.
FR: What is the attitude we should have in everyday life about the abuse of nature. What is our position on this? What does treating the land of "you"? Without becoming fans of Greenpeace, we feel that must have respect for the land and care for the Pacha Mama, in the sense of love for her don Genaro and not because we are going to "save" simply out of gratitude.
IT: Yes, exactly. For the visionaries, the earth is a sentient being who is treated with deep affection and admiration and respect we feel when we go to someone "you." So do not waste the things that gives us the land, and not waste our own energy in pampering. There are more important than other living beings on earth, like trees that give us the paper, for example. We use the paper when you need, but not wasted, making extra copies of something only to our convenience, writing in the middle of the road and then discarded. And if we have something we can no longer use, throw it in the best shape possible, with a light spirit, without obsessions and without trying to convince others to do likewise.
FR: To cultivate the attention of the dream, is required to maintain attention on the brow - there is overlap with certain geographic areas. How do you manage?
IT: There are certain body areas easier to handle the attention of the dream and more difficult. You can put the attention on different areas of the body, such as calves. We will explore this avenue in the seminar Mexico, in a series of magical passes called "mapping the body." At a more basic level, the focus of daily life has a direct effect on the care of dreaming. If we are concerned about what the boss thinks of us, or about whether she wants him more than me, then we can not find a cup in our dreams, let alone get into real dream. On the other hand, if we live artistically in our daily lives, then we will find ourselves dreaming artistically.
FR: The daily effort to remember ordinary dreams "helps cultivate the attention of the dream?
IT: It is a very timely question. Help - if one takes it as an exercise of care rather than an analysis or self aggrandizement. We will address the conference - no specific magical passes come with the dream recall, after practicing.
FR: The practice of Tensegrity has facilitated the perception with our bodies. But sometimes the linear mind shut off. How can we restore this flow? (It's the kind of situations when your body tells you what to do, but you start to doubt, wait, you hesitate. When this happens, we feel that the body remains passive, closed.)
IT: The Nagual told us that he is the vice the product being a boring design: doubt. He said that one of the simplest cures for our state to be a boring idea was to breathe - allow the body to connect to the air that is outside of it, and the insights it brings. "They have to sharpen the body," he said, "to perceive that the attempt to overtake the attempt to doubt." He said there is no way to doubt and dreaming at the same time. He said he never get rid of the doubt. Only relegated to the back row, so do not take the reins.
FR: We would like clarification on how to approach the magical passes to change the filum. Is it become one in insect? Some understood having to do with the alignment of perception and how insects - to align perception as a whole - work as a group by way of an organism, a single being, for their survival, and this gives them other evolutionary possibilities. We thought it might be appropriate to address it now because of the sounds of insects that appear in the seminar.
IT: What question more charming. The magical passes involving the change of phylum in terms of energy are used to help bring the new view that comes with a new position of the assemblage point. The truth is we do not know all the implications of what they bring these magical passes. The're finding they involve. The Nagual warned us not to speculate too much about the effects of the magical passes. He said he loved to try to turn things into something familiar, and tourists have all the comforts of home to the jungle. He said that direct experience was much more valuable than speculation. Just do the magical passes, told us, and find out where to take them. The magical passes of Olinda will practice in a form called the Infinite Dust brings us a strange consciousness of a being like a moth to describe a consciousness that requires a new syntax. We are finding out what is what these magical passes. The Nagual told us, "I might note that the flowering of a new line of thinking. Could be making statements that were totally unlike any that have made before. "Could it be that we had come communicating with us, as a body of practitioners in a different syntax. Insects do have a syntax, and seers beings humans have thrived in the use of their own. Do not abandon what we have learned, but why not learn some other, and be fluent in many languages? Many practitioners have asked us what we mean by "unified body practitioners ", or" dream group ". Whoever is available energy is in the dream that the nagual was for us in which we are sending signals to each other consciousness, finding our way together. These signals can be sent from anywhere - we do not need to listen to each other geographic proximity. We just need discipline: the art of feeling awe.
