Quotes
- It was his style
to assert that ordinary and nonordinary reality aren't separate, but
instead are encompassed in a larger circle.
Carlos
Castaneda Quote
- Eventually I saw
-- I saw -- that the path of the heart requires a full gesture, a degree
of abandon that can be terrifying.

the extent to which the teachings of don Juan could and would be dismissed
as "mere allegory" by certain specialists whose sacramental
mission is to reinforce the limits that culture and language place on
perception.
Carlos
Castaneda Quote

down to is the act of embodying some specialized theoretical and practical
premises about the nature of perception in molding the universe around
us.

traversing the crack between the natural world of everyday life and
an unseen world, which don Juan called "the second attention,"
a term he preferred to "supernatural."

- From the outset
I tried to persuade don Juan to let me use a tape recorder, but he said
relying on something mechanical only makes us more and more sterile.
Carlos
Castaneda Quote

is for me quite dry and labored. Dreaming is best.
Carlos

with don Juan was in reconditioning perception to sustain dream images
long enough to look at them carefully.
Carlos
Castaneda Quote
- By the end of
my time with don Juan, I learned to listen and watch and sense and recall
in all the cells of my body.
Carlos
Castaneda Quote

he was going to fulfill the sorcerer's dream of leaving this world and
entering into "unimaginable dimensions."
