Making Every Act Count
by The Inheritor


Juan Matus told Carlos Castaneda that he should make every act count because he would be in the world for only a short while, a time too short for experiencing all that one could potentially experience through a living body with the First Attention.  Juan Matus would say that a Warrior-Seeker of the Path of Knowledge of higher, subtler states of attention should at all times ask advice of his death.

 

Are you asking advice of your death?  Are you making every act count?  Or do you drift in a self-enclosed cloud or shell of blind self-importance?

 

When you are trapped within the blindness of self-importance, you cannot see Life or Death as they really are.  In such a state, you feel under attack from any direction at any time because you are clinging hard to what you believe are your possessions, which can include even other people.  With your assemblage point stuck in the normal position of the First Attention you lack the flexibility and inner strength, the personal integrity or impeccability, to make the optimum magical use of situations and relationships.  You wind up boring yourself and others to death with all your routines you are reinforcing for your security, which your death is going to destroy in the end anyway.

 

The average man is constantly destroying his magical potential by clinging to a stupid self-confidence from his profession or the predictable acquisition of his pleasures or entertainments.  A genuine Warrior-Seeker derives his confidence from his ability to enter into Heightened Awareness, move his Assemblage Point and explore the Unknown.  The average man is constantly acting out his most useless and foolish thoughts that accidentally occur in his mind, but because his thoughts, words and behavior are all virtually accidental, he neither can nor will take responsibility for what he thinks, says or does.  If we try to rely on average people, we have to discover that they are empty, unreal, like the “ghosts” Genaro would meet on his Journey to Ixtlan.  The Warrior-Seeker is increasingly responsible for what he thinks, says and does in the light of his inevitable death.  He knows that to not make every act count is the most horrible and tragic loss of real life, for he knows that a real life is a life of utmost magical intensity unfolding within true infinity as a Skywalk right on the Earth as with the Gait of Power on the Path of the Void, the Unknown, thanks to the Boost of the Earth.

 

Do you understand that your social self-importance is your number one blockage against entering into the wonderful intensity of a truly magical life?  Can you see how your self-enclosed normalcy is wasting your life in dead-end futilities of the First Attention within a fixated, rigid and false “reality” of meaningless social consensus?  Try to see why Nagual Shamans will talk to insects, tiny little flowers or pebbles on the ground.

 

Picture the ordinary Big Self-important Ego-reader of this article.  Such a Tonal or Social Ego thinks it has great spiritual knowledge and that it is on the way to getting amazing personal power.  That foolish human being is you!  Your only hope is to see this and enter into the magical intensity of the Unknown realms beyond your self-important and stupid normalcy, which includes your social projects for trying to be more popular with other self-important, stupid normals.

 

Carlos Castaneda has passed on (as Juan Matus predicted) after writing many fascinating books on the Nagual Seers, which books made his Tonal or social self a famous and much-sought-after person.  After that, much gossip and glamour surrounded Carol Tiggs, Florinda Donner and Taisha Abelar in terms of their Tonals or social selves.  Occult social-seeking is always within the ways of self-importance.  Unable to enter into the sustained Unknown, the occult seekers want to become more important about occult seeking.  The great She-Spider of the Web wraps her lines of social concern around the occult seeker and ties him or her up in a cocoon for slow eating.  Such occult-seekers never get out because they have been paralyzed with Her poison of social self-importance.

 

Try to grasp that Carlos Castaneda was writing about people and situations that are not aligned with the way you go about being interested or fascinated with such beings and their situations.  Your interests and fascinations lack impeccability and personal power.  You are too neurotic and filled with spiritual imaginings about yourself.  You are just not getting it!

 

Try to understand that your usual opinions, hopes and choices in all this have nothing to do with what all this is really about.  You are just spinning like a roulette wheel into different items of your fixated normal position of your consciousness, your bubble of perception, your Assemblage Point.  You are truly wasting your life day-in and day-out.  The things you read about occult marvels and spiritual wonders are not helping you.  Your studies do not help you because they are undertaken within the ridiculous convenience of your normalcy, which is killing your magical potential.

 

You are not making your actions count for anything real in the magical world of the Nagual Seers.  What, therefore, are you really going to do about all this?  Maybe you better wake up to something before it is too late.  Of course it is all up to Power.
