castaneda's first threw me off my chair. i was a freshie at work then while doing college, when my co-worker friends, brothers, introduced me to psychedelics and castaneda.
the combination sent my world crumbling down…
doesn't sound nice, but it was a blast(!) of an initiation into carlos' and don juan's world.
Indeed perception and truth are a slippery slope and Castaneda has a gift for offering that insight.
read this book after reading from somewhere that George Lucas was inspired by this book. no wonder. this book is full of amazing stories that will stretch one's imagination. also taught me the art of lucid dreaming too :)
I read this book 35 years ago & it opened my eyes & heart to greater possibilities over an up-till-then dreary life. It coincided with my own meeting-up with a desert teacher. Reading Carlos' story helped me understand my own journey.
This is a keeper!
a young latino student meets a toltec shaman, who wins?
don juan of course, don juan is a jewel of that rare kind, the people who lived and breathed their spirituality…don juan teaches us all about the taking of psychedelics, he made it a really serious thing. Carlos Castaneda's on a path: one that kicks off with The Teachings…and continues on past Don Juan's death
