The mystery of acquiring or failing to acquire Power is to be found in the hidden Will-of-Power, which is Intent.  We can observe in our daily experience that we are unable to do certain things as we intended, and that we do certain other things unintentionally.  In both cases, our will and the Will-of-Power are going in opposite directions.  What is bringing this about is the Will-of-Power.  So our “will-power” is limited, but the Will-of-Power is unlimited.  Intent is the unlimited Power that shapes and guides our intentionality, our motivations and purposes.

Learn to notice more often that even when you are acting with full faith and confidence in yourself you are still unable to do all that you wish.  That is the way that Power makes you rightly doubt your everyday social self, your Tonal.  But it is your everyday social self that tries to turn to “faith in God” to get the Power it obviously lacks.  But any “Power” it gets that way only causes “doubt about God” followed by trying to develop faith in the self.  The Tonal oscillates back and forth between faith-in-self and faith-in-God precisely because both positions are within the normal position of the assemblage point.  Only the Nagual can work with the real Will-of-Power that is Intent.  The Nagual replaces faith with Intent.  On the level of Nagual purposes, God and Self are moving toward unification as Spirit, which is the Fourth Attention.  One should therefore closely observe that powerless alternation of faith-in-God and faith-in-self are nothing but useless manoeuvres of the social self in the normal position of the assemblage point.

The difficulties in self-change, of changing our habits or behaviour, are only unlocked in the exploration of Intent.  Again and again you have to face that your will is self-contradictory and ineffective.  You are not going to succeed in self-change as a Tonal, a social self, a “normal” person!  Only the Nagual, the spirit self, can have effective self-change.  It is fundamental self-change as Heightened Awareness.  All the procedures of Stalking are there to bring this about, which is the “polishing of our link with Intent”.  Only when the real Will-of-Power wants a change in you will it happen.

To be able to sustain what we do about anything whatsoever, the urge must spring from Intent, the Will-of-Power.  That is the true Power that impels us.  Our little power of will of our social self is a false and divided power that fails repeatedly.  So we must learn to work receptively in greater awareness to the unlimited real Power that is Intent, which is unlimited throughout the Universe.  It is the Power that never fails.  All so-called “sin” and “virtue” are not in our hands.

Real decisions are made only in the Nagual as modes-of-Intent, movements-of-Power, as movements of the assemblage point.  That is why what Tonals, social selves, say or do about the Path of Power on the Web means precisely nothing.  “Nagual” forums have zero validity in the realm of the Nagual.  Social situations are where Power brings superficial people to keep them weak and safe from the real ways and events of Nagual situations.  The Mother Bird of Freedom keeps Her immature chicks in their eggs in big nests of socializers.  If they are hatched out prematurely, they would only die and not fly.

To become available to Power means to stop socializing about Power and things of the Naguals.  But this cannot be decided and done as a Tonal, a social self.  If the social self makes itself into an isolated, frustrated and bitter hermit renouncing personal and social fulfilment, it is nothing but a dead-end road:  One can read interviews such ultimately frustrated ascetics used to have with J. Krishnamurti.  Only the Nagual knows the right way out of socializing about Nagualism.

If the Tonal goes about in Mexico in search of a Nagual, it will find only things of the Tonal and will want to talk or brag with other Tonals about those things.  Only the Nagual can find the Nagual.  This is the truth of it in any region of the Earth or the Universe.  Many Naguals of the Galaxy are incarnated as the entities who have been called Mothmen, for instance.  But the Tonal, the social self, will not find the Mothman Nagual in either Mexico or Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Power and Power alone decides about unusual encounters with beings of Power.  This includes the possibility of encountering the Death Defier.  Any such possibility is a thing of Intent.

Even what people believe or disbelieve about all this is out of their hands. Power secretly rules the minds of human beings through the agency of the Flyers, the Mud Shadows.  It takes tremendous personal energy to overcome a stupid belief or disbelief.  Socializers on the Web are low-energy prisoners of their Foreign Installations.  They exercise their useless beliefs and disbeliefs about all this because they are themselves being exercised as cognitive puppets on hidden strings.  This is easily observable by the Nagual.

The sooner you somehow decide that your usual decisions or opinions about all this are nothing but flatland normalcy and low-energy fucking shit, there may be some slight hope for you in the world of the Nagual.  Then Power may be deciding to help you learn how to learn the Way of Power.

The Energy of the Unknown is unbelievably energizing!

Recently I have been swapping notes about Power with an old Noid Shaman of the reindeer herding Sami people of Lappland here in Arctic Scandinavia where I am residing for the time being in this wilderness next to a huge frozen lake.  These Noids refer to the inorganic beings as the “Underwater People”, for instance.  Anyway, these are Nagual-to-Nagual discussions of Power about Power.  Some Noids are genuine People of Power.  They have not been and are not going to be Castaneda socializers on the Web!

A discussion-of-Power with Power through two or more Naguals is a monumental discovery of a Secret of Power that is revealed through shared Intent.  The Tonal, the stupid low-energy social self, cannot possibly comprehend what it is about.

There is a Nagual Network that spans many cultures on Earth and throughout the Total Universe-of-Universes.  It is completely inaccessible to blabbering occult socializers or New Age “teachers” who seek followers.  The Nagual Network functions mainly through telepathic communion in the place of Silent Knowledge in Heightened Awareness.  It is an open-ended Arrangement of Power.  It is utterly exhilarating and wondrous.

The Tonal tries to acquire Power to fulfil Tonal aims; the Nagual acquires Power through fulfilling Nagual aims.  The Tonal tries to get Power so that it can be used or shown off to other Tonals to impress them and exploit them; the Nagual lets Power flow through the self, which increases it, which has no self-defeating social aims.

Power as Intent is an inexhaustible subject!

I know a Swede here in Lappland who knows a little Sami Shaman lore of the Noids.  He thinks he can acquire Power through making a magical instrument with three bear penises.  He has killed two bears and cut off their penises.  For quite awhile he has been hunting for the third bear with the decisive third penis.  But he will not acquire Power in this way as such because he is going about it as a Tonal.  A Noid Nagual knows what to do with three bear penises because he knows the right order of things.  Occultly greedy Europeans in Lappland (or anywhere else) do not know the right order of things.  When they acquire Objects-of-Power, they only do harm to themselves and others.  My Swedish friend may even go mad if he gets the third bear penis.  So far, Power has kept it away from him.  In fact, many Tonal “Noids” have done foolish harm to themselves and others by taking up the Triple-Bear-Penis sorcery for healing and cursing with Bear-Vitality-Power.  This is an ancient problem here in Lappland.  What on Earth has not been abused by social selves after Power?

The World of Power is mysterious!

Do you want three bear penises?  Not all occult excitement is in Mexico.  I bet the “Nagual” forums will now have a big flurry of fleeting curiosity about Nagual Noidism.  Maybe Mothman was using Triple-Bear-Penis sorcery on the hapless normals of Point Pleasant, West Virginia!

Both Mothman and the Noid Nagual just gave me a big smile.  Really!

Do you “believe in” Mothman and the Noid Nagual?  Do you suppose it is anything like “believing in” Don Juan and the Death Defier?  Socializers worry a lot about what they “believe in” because they cannot get their own direct experiences.  All the poor dumb fucks – those putos and putas – can do is feed witty crap to one another on the Web about all this.
