CARLOS CASTANEDA PAGE
Carlos Castaneda (December 25, 1925 - April 27, 1998) was an accomplished American author with a PHD in anthropology. Starting with “The Teachings of Don Juan” in 1968, Castaneda wrote a series of books that describe his advanced training in shamanism, particularly with a group whose lineage descended from the Toltecs. The books, narrated in the first person, relate his experiences under the tutelage of a Yaqui "Man of Knowledge" named don Juan Matus. Many people consider his books to be valuable works of philosophy with descriptions of practices which lead one to an awareness of energies, beings and worlds which lie outside the perceptual paradigm of the vast majority of human beings on this planet.

Memorable Quotes from Carlos Castaneda
"To be a WARRIOR is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other.”
"The worst that could happen to us is that we have to die, and since that is already our unalterable fate, we are free; those who have lost everything no longer have anything to fear. What we need to do to allow magic to get hold of us is to banish doubts from our minds. Once doubts are banished anything is possible."
"Impeccability begins with a single act that has to be deliberate, precise and sustained. If that act is repeated long enough, one acquires a sense of unbending intent which can be applied to anything else. If that is accomplished the road is clear. One thing will lead to another until the WARRIOR realizes his full potential."
"A Warrior must focus his attention on the link between himself and his death. Without remorse or sadness or worrying, he must focus his attention on the fact that he does not have time and let his acts flow accordingly. He must let each of his acts be his last battle on earth. Only under those conditions will his acts have their rightful power. Otherwise they will be, for as long as he lives, the acts of a fool."
“For the average man, the world is weird because if he's not bored with it, he's at odds with it. For a WARRIOR, the world is weird because it is stupendous, awesome, mysterious, unfathomable. A warrior must assume responsibility for being here, in this marvelous world, in this marvelous time.”
“Seeing energy as it flows is an imperious need on the path of knowledge. Ultimately, all the effort of sorcerers is guided to that end. It is not enough for a WARRIOR to know that the universe is energy; he has to verify it for himself.”
“I am already given to the power that rules my fate. And I cling to nothing, so I will have nothing to defend. I have no thoughts, so I will see. I fear nothing, so I will remember myself. Detached and at ease, I will dart past the Eagle to be free.”
To achieve the mood of a WARRIOR is not a simple matter. It is a revolution. To regard the lion and the water rats and our fellow men as equals is a magnificent act of a warrior’s spirit. It takes power to do that.”
“The mood of a WARRIOR who enters into the unknown is not one of sadness; on the contrary, he’s joyful because he feels humbled by his great fortune, confident that his spirit is impeccable, and above all, fully aware of his efficiency. A warrior’s joyfulness comes from having accepted his fate, and from having truthfully assessed what lies ahead of him.”
“When his path no longer corresponds to human expectations, when it takes him to situations that challenge his reason, then we can say that a WARRIOR has begun an intimate relationship with knowledge.”
