In a similar way, would invoking the help of our vastly powerful oversouls be similarly advantageous by virtue of additional personalized focus on our 400+ incarnations?”ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Higher Self170 views0 answers0 votesA practitioner asks: “I have gathered that we have one higher self that manages all of our incarnations, because the Pleiadians, through Barbara Marciniak, once suggested that is the situation, but that may not be correct.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Higher Self202 views0 answers0 votesAll the awareness and focus by the New Age Movement on the higher self has created an image of it being a lofty source of all we need. Yet, being part of the self, even though residing in the divine realm and able to communicate with Creator, that implies the higher self is more a helper and assistant. Is it more like another level of our consciousness than being a separate conscious entity? Can you give us a tutorial of the higher self’s place in things, its role and duties, its strengths and limitations?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Higher Self164 views0 answers0 votesA practitioner asks: “Is the higher self truly in between a person and their soul? Or is the higher self a separate soul extension we communicate with, kind of on the side, like it is a twin soul extension, as depicted in her drawing?”ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Higher Self171 views0 answers0 votesYou told us that spirit meddlers want to reach and attach themselves to the center of the chakras, as “the energies come in from both planes of the body so they get a double dose, so to speak, when they are in the center of the action.” Can you help us understand what the two planes of the body are, and their purpose and function?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness219 views0 answers0 votesCan you help us understand the mechanism of human death? You have told us that death is always chosen by the person, if not at a conscious level. Does the deep subconscious have to agree because it has a role in the process? Does Creator always pull the plug by withdrawing life force energy or is it done by the higher self? What else happens that must be attended to, in order for death to take place?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Higher Self300 views0 answers0 votesThere are many complex physiological processes carried out automatically by the body, seemingly without conscious awareness or control, but what about cellular consciousness? For example, to what extent is digestion and absorption of food influenced by cellular consciousness of the gastrointestinal system?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness166 views0 answers0 votesAnyone who takes more than a passing interest in multicultural spiritual topics will inevitably encounter the writings of Carlos Castaneda. Wikipedia has this to say about Dr. Castaneda: His … “books were ethnographic accounts describing his apprenticeship with a traditional ‘Man of Knowledge’ identified as Don Juan Matus, allegedly a Yaqui Indian from Northern Mexico. The veracity of these books was doubted from their original publication, and they are now widely considered to be fictional.” Yet for anyone who takes serious time to study his works, it seems almost impossible to draw that same conclusion. What is Creator’s perspective on Castaneda and his life’s work?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness185 views0 answers0 votesIt seems incredible, to live our western secular lives, and be almost completely ignorant of the extraordinary spiritual heritage possessed by American indigenous peoples. Castaneda’s mentor, Don Juan Matus, is a most mysterious figure indeed. From the time of the Spaniard Cortez, indigenous shamanistic traditions have been brutally suppressed and pushed into the background. Castaneda writes of Don Juan in The Eagle’s Gift: “He told me that if I wanted to fly, I had to summon the intent of flying. He showed me then how he himself could summon it, and jumped in the air and soared in a circle, like a huge kite. Or he would make things appear in his hand. He said he knew the intent of many things and could call those things by intending them.” All this sounds extraordinary, but we know Jesus could do these things. The Hindus have a word “siddi” to describe these capabilities that we regard as “miraculous.” The message was that these abilities were obtainable by anyone with access to a knowledgeable mentor, and who was willing to dedicate themselves fully to the pursuit.

Without mastery of the dream world, there could not be mastery of the physical world. Nearly all of Castaneda’s training was focused on gaining mastery of the dream world, or the “second attention” as Don Juan called it. It is assumed that the second attention is a synonym for our intuitive faculties. Our waking state is the first attention. Mastery of the second attention or intuitive faculties was the principal pursuit of the shaman and the source of his knowledge and ability to be used in service to his people. The sorcerer, on the other hand, is one who works to attain the same mastery, but only to serve the self and the pursuit of power and control over others. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness182 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: “The power that governs the destiny of all living beings is called the Eagle … The Eagle is devouring the awareness of all the creatures that, alive on Earth a moment before and now dead, have floated to the Eagle’s beak, like a ceaseless swarm of fireflies, to meet their owner, their reason for having had life … for awareness is the Eagle’s food.” This seems like an incomplete description of the Creator of All That Is. Accurate to a point, but missing the quality of love, and the desire on the part of Creator for partnership with his creations. This is further reflected in this passage: “The Eagle, that power that governs the destinies of all living things, reflects equally at once all those living things. There is no way, therefore, for man to pray to the Eagle, to ask favors, to hope for grace. The human part of the Eagle is too insignificant to move the whole.” As powerful as he was, was Don Juan missing the forest for the trees? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness197 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: Don Juan “said that there is nothing more dangerous than the evil fixation of the second attention (or evil mastery of the intuitive faculties). When warriors (or seekers/seers or shaman/sorcerers) learn to focus on the weak side of the second attention nothing can stand in their way. They become hunters of men, ghouls. Even if they are no longer alive, they can reach for their prey through time as if they were present here and now.” How big is the problem of dead evil sorcerers? Are these some of the human hybrid spirits that seem to have partnered with the fallen angelics? If they were particularly adept sorcerers when alive, might their powers even exceed that of some of the fallen angelics, similar in the way that Anunnaki spirits manage to control and repurpose the fallen angelics for evil aims?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness214 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: “… all archaeological ruins in Mexico, especially the pyramids, were harmful to modern man. He (Don Juan) depicted the pyramids as foreign expressions of thought and action. He said that every item, every design in them, was a calculated effort to record aspects of attention that were totally alien to us. For Don Juan, it was not only ruins of past cultures that held a dangerous element in them, anything which was the object of an obsessive concern had a harmful potential.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness236 views0 answers0 votesCastaneda wrote: “Your compulsion to possess and hold on to things is not unique, he (Don Juan) said. ‘Everyone who wants to follow the warrior’s path, the sorcerer’s way, has to rid himself of this fixation.’ My benefactor told me that there was a time when warriors did have material objects on which they placed their obsession. And that gave rise to the question of whose object would be more powerful, or the most powerful of them all. Remnants of those objects still remain in the world, the leftovers of that race for power.” For a tourist to pick up such an object found in ancient ruins and take it home, can be dangerous in the extreme.
