Shrinking the Tonal

I don’t decide who gets to stay, so suit yourself.

But unless you put in hours a day working, you won’t get any actual magic.

It’s like anything else. To play a trumpet well enough to join a Las Vegas Lounge act in 6 months, you’d need 3 hours practice per day.

If you were practicing for the city wide amateur basketball competition, you’d play 4 hours a night.

If you wanted to be an Olympic swimmer, you’d have to be at the pool 6 hours a day.

This is far harder than any of those.

Also, at first it’s very hard to move the assemblage point along the J curve, so to get to the “cool stuff” levels, takes hours.

Later, 5 minutes.

But the rewards are MAGIC IN YOUR FACE!!!

You’ll kick that pitiful Buddha’s delusional ass.

For real. Just use google and you’ll see it’s true.

We don’t hide magic in here.

So treat it like it’s valuable. Don’t piss on people in here, unless they’re trying to harm the place.

Here’s the map in case you missed it, but go read posts. More and more, until you are saturated and you start to “understand it”.

And that map has little pictures, to help you figure out how far you’ve moved.

Silence is the key, never forget that. No words in the mind, at least 2 minutes, just to get that assemblage point “loose”. Then you need to see colors in darkness, to get it to move.

Later, you can use the “short map”. That’s this one. It leads to being taught by infinity itself, as if it were your teacher.

All human knowledge, past, present, and maybe even future, is available to you, when you reach the end of that map.

The trick then is, how to find what you wanted to know?

There’s so much…

What you were writing about today (4/28/2023) about the layers seen in Heightened Awareness led me to a revelation about the question of where the body goes when shrinking the tonal.

You wrote that “The #1Rule of Sorcerers is there are only emanations and the awareness flowing into them. There is no space, no time, no matter.”

I was thinking about how the egg perceives the layers from seeing them in my own Darkroom experiences and realized that what you were describing about seeing the layers in heightened awareness means that we are just an egg sitting in a mesh of emanations at all times. In the Darkroom at Heightened Awareness, you begin to “see” layers of what I would call the common reality of the tonal broken down into parts, like feelings, heat, touch, a bit of a locale, the mood of the people, etc.

So it becomes a fallacy to just go looking for magic inside the Darkroom I realized, because the deeper one goes, the more of common reality (the tonal) one experiences in the Darkroom. That information comes from the emanations flowing through the AP.

That opens up incredible possibilities as far as incredible feats like traveling distances with ones body like described in the passage from the book you quote here. I walked upstairs thinking about the idea that real reality is only the emanations and my egg is perceiving the ones my AP assemblies as I walk around and it hit me.

My egg is not moving.

Without SPACE, there is no PROXIMITY. So the act of walking up the stairs to go talk with my husband is experienced by my egg as my body moving through space in common reality, the tonal, but I am actually moving along emanations until my AP is aligned to perceive the emanations of the room upstairs and my husband. But again, the egg does not move.

That explains why no-one “sees” the egg walking in the books because there is no place to walk along the emanations. That is not how it works.

If the egg never moves, and if a sorcerer is able to “see” the emanations that create the tonal, then traveling great distances would be completely possible.

But what happens to the Tonal body? has always been the question. Do we leave it behind? Yes, you have done that yourself. And you come back to your body where you left it.

But if there are only emanations and the Egg never moves, then it should be possible to shrink the tonal to a point that it is light enough to be carried by the Dream Body of the Purple Puffs, the Nagual. If someone were to be standing next to you, their mind would experience it as a rip in continuity and probably ignore it. A trained sorcerer could perceive a tonal body folded in half in a ditch without going insane.

But we have proven people are good at smoothing over these cracks in reality when they happen. That is how they keep themselves from going "mad’ even when magic occurs right in from of them. Like the Bagboy in the market who was picked up by Cholita probably blanked out the experience because it is just too much for his mind.

Or the famous experiment of people watching a basketball game not noticing a guy in a gorilla suit walking out on the court.

But the people blessed with mental illness are all too aware of these rips in continuity. I have experienced them and have come to accept them without questioning “what happened,” as long as I am intact when I end up on the other side.

If I were able to shrink my tonal, I could carry it along with me while I moved along emanations to a new locale because it would be light enough even by your estimations. Even the tonal is all emanations.

The physical body is likely leftover awareness flowing in the emanations for solid matter. And we can’t quite remove that, because it was the main thing we learned when we took a birth.

But perhaps we’ll get to see that in the long run.

One side effect of perceiving the layers seems to be “the gait of power”.

Hard to explain, but if you can see the layers in daylight, the tapping sound produces ripples on the layers and can cause something to crystalize. And manifest after that.

I can’t fit it into my first animation of emanation layers, but once I have the stuff in place in the animation software, I can make more.

Carlos could see the layers all the time.

It’s a very different view of our daily world, when the whitish light and flickering emanation layers are also visible.

You can see the effect anything you encounter has on the layers.

It’s a “measuring tool”.

Like the puffs are for darkroom. No puffs, no silence. It’s a silence measuring tool.

During the day, the layers can become a “predictor” of future events.

Perhaps the 10 second “intent delay” applies here. Maybe you get a 10 second warning of a drastic change in the emanations that are skimme.

Hopefully we have access to that Jedi power of seeing into the future a few seconds.

One has to think if Soledad helped with that movie plot, we could do it too.

Carlos could see the layers all the time.

I was curious how did you come to know about it? Was it with experience or did he tell private students about it once in a while?

He told us about layers like that in many ways. In private class, and in his books.

The whitish light on surfaces, the purple smear in the sky.

Assuming that was what you were asking about.

But if you make it to the red zone, you’ll know about the layers. Might not yet think of them that way, but you’ll “feel” when you have one going on.

A new one perhaps no one heard is in that series of detailed notes Bruce Wagner took of his first meeting with Carlos.

It’s in the notes Techno put together. I’d copy it, but I’m not sure what to search for.

Carlos described how the sky turns into a flat purple surface, and then a pomegranate dot spits out text.

Bruce was reading his notes back to his hollywood friends, and one of them asked, “Literal text??!”

How stupid humans have become. Where that sounds hard to believe.

Despite often dreaming about seeing text!

I’ll try to include enough “layers” in my current animation, to clear up that confusion about what humans are capable of seeing.

I suppose I could include some text. But I’ll have to literally see it before I’m done, so I can portray it accurately.

It’s really difficult to recall those sights, over here in the blue zone.

When you see them over in the deep orange, it’s vivid and real.

But those memories didn’t happen over here, so you kind of have to “transport” them.

The pictures might have an odd effect on people by creating “familiar sights” of magic, reducing the need to translate or forget.

Someone can see whatever they see on a “layer” and realize, “It’s kind of like that one I sawa in a video, except that this one is greenish, and …”

It’s a lot easier to remember and describe a weird dog you see in a park, if you’ve seen lots of dogs in the past. As opposed to never having seen one, and being surrounded by people who deny they exist.
