Darkroom gazing

Archive
1

Hello everyone, wanna share some experience. Two days ago, I was running a fever because of 2nd covid vaccine ( Physer). At that night I did gazing and felt so weak. I saw colors like purple and blueish , they were pushing each other. Around 5:30 am, I herd some one is nocking to the front door. Like bum bum bum 3 times. I was no way , what a hell, the front door is 2 meters of my couch. I practice in living room. I opened the door there was no one out there.I was angry. In next night when I got to bed, i saw an ordinary dream, where I opened the door the ball was moving towards me. When it came closer it was egg shaped with amber light inside and dark contour on the outside.
I wake up.

The Knock of the Spirit. Been there, multiple times (a bit dense).

And I’d say it was then your double coming back from it’s excursions to check out what was going on with you both.

Yep, it’s very common! And amazing if you ask me.

Something so stupid! “The Knock of the Spirit”.

But it’s an actual knock on the door???

And yet, it happens over and over to Castaneda practitioners.

If you learn to ignore it, you might even start to get the telephone ringing.

There’s where you can find out how to tell the difference. The telephone ring sounds “too perfect”, like a radio station’s recording of a telephone ring, which they can select from a keyboard if it’s funny at the moment.

I’ll be curious to see, with smartphones and ring tones, if someone hears their own smartphone ringtone.

Will it be the current one, or one from their last phone?

Who does the knocking?

Intent certainly. But both the double, and the IOBs, are agents of intent.

Their link to intent is perfectly clean. I suspect they’ll do “assignments” when selected.

Like knocking on the door.

So here’s a very good lesson!

We need intent. Without intent, there’s no sorcery.

Don’t pollute your intent. Stay away from Daoist writings, Buddhist writings, Enochian witchcraft, and maybe to lesser extent, Hinduism and Qabalah.

Those last 2 are more compatible, but still seriously delusional.

Their grip on reality is very poor, and they might put an idea in your head that alters your course.

You don’t want to get the “Knock of Krishna”.

Or succeed at switching to a cyclic being, but thinking it’s a “past life”.

We have to stay on the same old rusty railroad tracks. We can’t change junctions. Even getting out at a stop to look at the other railroad schedules will harm your efforts.

As do books by phonies like Miguel, Armando, Victor, and god knows who else. There must be hundreds of those out there. Everyone trying to cash in, none with any actual sorcery knowledge.

Crazy!

I think I also had covid, and I have to say that it was a very good waking dreaming week!

Momentum is a precious thing. It takes much more energy to keep stopping to evaluate every possible redirect, than it does to bypass them and sail onwards. And that energy gets lessened with every layover, when it’s just us doing the driving..until we can be at risk of never actually starting-up again.

Having an external force aiding the process is a HUGE benefit.

That’s what Carlos was waiting for. He called it, “Energetic Mass”, and everyone thought that only meant numbers of people at workshops.

It clearly didn’t. He even mentioned that was his only hope of surviving his cancer, at the height of the workshop crowd.

So number of people wasn’t the answer.

The Chacmools got demoted and the 2 women who moved to the end of the J curve replaced them at one workshop.

The one portrayed in that simple J curve diagram.

He was probably hoping their success would catch on.

But I don’t believe they were even aware of what they’d done.

I did a bunch of significant stuff over the years before I even got into private classes.

But it’s like a dream you quickly forget, and discount as not being important.

Like that knock on the door people hear! I guarantee nearly all will quickly forget that ever happened. It’s built into this position of the assemblage point, to forget that sort of thing.

That happens in the dark room too!

If we didn’t get to write things up in here, for a good purpose (helping and inspiring others and not just bragging), we’d lose those too.

I lose tons of things each night these days, because I can’t write all of them up.

Like that “double’s doorway” I saw last night. Or the big eyeball I played with.

Already forgotten, except that they came up while I was looking at something in here.

It’s like going up into the mountains and finding a piece of “false gold”.

Or so you think. That’s what you’ve been told all of your life. You aren’t going to just stumble upon gold because all of the streams have been searched.

It’s interesting, but you’ll forget about it unless someone comes along and tells you, “That’s REAL GOLD you idiot”!"

Then you’ll rush back to see if you can find more.

Yes I heard knock/crack on walls almost every time I practice.

Stick to Carlos and Taisha, never had chance to read Florida Donner Grau or Donie Soledad books.

9

Who on earth is Donie Soledad? I sure hope there isn’t another pretend sorcery book writer of any prominence. It’s hard enough to get people to practice, with the phonies we have now.

You can pretty much stick to darkroom too. Then you can figure everything out yourself, or ask your inorganic being.

But of course once you understand, the books are a lot more useful.

10

Yeah I steak to it. So, once CC asked don Huan about a second attention. Like, can anyone get a teacher from second attention? ( May be not the same phrase, but meaning almost like that).
Don Huan answer was, “Yes if he has a unbending intent.” So a teacher is IOBs.
That was I thought.

Who on earth is Donie Soledad

https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/ttzlibrary/dona-soledad-ycache-googlepages-t410.html

Discussion and speculation as to whether or not she is the actual Dona Soledad (Ruiz) from the books, a Mexican actress who started practicing as a traditional curer in 1973.

Yea, but it gets a little more complicated.

The old seers took refuge with the inorganic beings, when it was time to die.

They also did other things, like turn into a tree.

But there are likely plenty of them still in inorganic being realms.

It’s not impossible you can run into those guys, exploring the unknown.

I get “visitors” I can’t explain, probably at least once a month.

“Explain” means, you get so much experience, you learn to tell things apart by the details.

How fast does it animate? Inorganic beings, when you’re not very far down on the J curve, are like very old web cameras. 2 frames a second at most.

And they have no dream. It’s them. They might have props, but usually it’s just that being.

Dreaming doubles on the other hand animate at full speed, and largely ignore you. They ended up in your room by “accident”, and aren’t necessarily seeing what you are seeing. Cholita’s double is a good example. If you gaze at them, you can make out the dream they are perceiving.

So after a while of 3 hours a night doing real magic, you build up your own “flowchart”, or maybe more like “field identification manual” for visitors.

And then, one violates it. A new thing shows up. And they usually get right in your face.

They also cause losses of time, both after they show up, and before it.

Once, Carlos showed up and wanted me to follow him down a hallway, in a huge building.

I interrupted him. He stopped, looked at me, and left a message for this subreddit.

Look for the outer darkness.

Or something like that.

Was it him?

I don’t know, but it did not fit anywhere in my identification flow chart.

13

Did she write anything?

If she was, you should be able to hear that she’s the real thing, in her writings.

However, if she’s like Cholita, there will be “other stuff” mixed in there.

14

Look for the outer darkness, meaning out of luminous body to unknown?

15

No, just films and traditional healing:

I don’t know. I should not have interrupted him, and instead followed to see where he was going. He wanted to bring me somewhere.

But I don’t go with strangers unless I know for sure who it is, and where they’re going.

My inorganic being, “Fancy” had been teaching me to go in and out of dreams in just a second or two each.

Of course, you have to be able to materialize multiple dreams in the darkness around you.

Then, to enter one you find the “key element”. Something in that dream, floating just 6 to 12 feet away from you, which gives you a feeling that you understand that situation.

You gaze at the key element, and you are sucked into the dream.

Then you just bounce back out and onto the bed, simply by remembering that’s what you were practicing.

The last of 5 or so, was of a man standing in a long white hallway.

When I zipped in, it was Carlos.

I believe that triggered us talking about darkness in this subreddit.

Someone found a quote in Taisha’s book (I believe) saying for continuity, you should learn, “not being”.

And someone pointed out that Carlos wrote that males were like stars among the blackness, which was like the females. Meaning, there weren’t as many males around as females.

In the bible, the “outer darkness” is condemnation.

If you don’t get inside the city of light (Heaven), you have to remain outside the gate, in outer darkness.

Kind of cool to discuss real magic like it was no big deal, isn’t it?

You won’t find that anywhere else on the net. It’s a serious shame.

About which, nothing can be done. A Taoist would condemn all that. Not that they can do any of it. But they’d condemn it, because in their system, it’s a money making add-on to deal with “spirits”. Because they’re “bad and harmful”.

Of course, they’re full of s…t.

Howard Lee condemned Carlos after he died, telling people that “Carlos went bad”, dealing with spirits.

Felix and Daniels passed that around, so that soon the entire community had been subjected to that false accusation.

Can’t blame Howard. He’s a Taoist. He was just repeating what he had learned.

17

Is that page associated with Claro Verde?

I’ve been curious about them for a while. I’d like to send Cholita to check them out.

18

Someone infected our instagram with a message about that fraud Sergio. People just can’t seem to read what fake sorcerers say, and figure it out!

And no one cares to look if there are any actual successful students.

Might be good to make a writeup on the two of them in the same post.

But it would be a lot of work. Someone would have to analyze all that text, to see which part is her speaking.

And also, whether they are claiming the witches endorsed her. I couldn’t figure that out from what I glanced at.

As for the potential Soledad, my face turned bright red and felt very hot, the instant I saw her picture. I had to look away.

I have no idea what that means, but I did spend a time on Indian reservations in southern California as a child. I bumped into Carlos at least once, and probably more.

19

Someone who speaks Spanish will have to figure that out!

She claims to have known Don Juan personally, as well as Carlos, and in this post here:

http://carloscastaneda-tolteca.blogspot.com/2005/12/doa-soledad-ruiz.html

Recalls her memories, mostly of Carlos.
