Journey to Ixtlan - Don Juan

Shamanic works

- Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan is a memoir by American author and shamanic intellectual Carlos Castaneda who spent 11 years with Yaqui Indian shaman and sorcerer Don Juan Matus.
- Don Juan believed in a parallel reality and promoted a Yaqui psychotropic hallucinogen known as peyote.
- He was a mind reader and talked to plants and encouraged his students to do the same.
- Castaneda felt that Don Juan's supernatural abilities allowed him to find truth and happiness without using logic (left side of brain).

Life in itself is sufficient, self-explanatory and complete. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Ocotillo

- Don Juan believed that the abundance of all other life-forms made human's fairly insignificant in this universe, completely opposite how most modern humans feel.
- He taught his students how to communicate with animals.
- A big part of Don Juan's instruction was teaching his students how to perceive things they had never noticed or seen before.
- Castaneda began to experience the world as a conglomerate of energy fields, rather than what we normally experience as reality (solid mass).

A man of knowledge is one who has followed truthfully the hardships of learning. (Carlos Castaneda)



Letting go of ego

- Don Juan taught about letting go of the ego, he felt that self-importance was a huge barrier for humans.
- He also stressed the limitations of having strict routines, and forgetting about your personal history.
- More importantly, he felt that humans need to expand their perception and one of the easiest ways is to use psychotropic hallucinogens.

Self-importance requires spending most of one's life offended by something or someone. (Carlos Castaneda)

 


Firemen on fire


- Did you know that only the repressive, dictatorial countries of the world ban drugs because they sure don't want YOU to wake up and see anything (especially what they're doing).
- And they even tried banning Marijuana, God's green gift of a seeding plant that brings peace and introspection (while they all sit around puffing on their pipes, cigars, cigarettes and cigaretto's; hypocrites, that's legal though, nicotine the most addictive drug in the world with 250 added chemicals by you know who).
- And there was a time they would sit in your office space and blow smoke at you and call you an 'addict' they are all flaming hypocrites (and now are cops without fake jobs).
- Narcissists the 'narcs' figure it out.
- BTW, Jesus was a 'pothead.'


Its sweet fragrance is pleasing to our human senses as well, and helps us physically and spiritually lift up our hearts to God. (Psalm 140)

 

Every eye will see him   

Heterochromia

- We learn in the New Testament that Jesus was crucified from the founding of the world and he is coming and every eye will see him.
- He will be glorified and made manifest in his Saints and every eye will understand, and even their tongues will be loosened so that they will speak the truth.
- But until that comes, we've got to understand that everything we've been doing on this Earth, and all that we're learning is wrong.
- Seeing the world through different colored eyes.

Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. (Revelation 1:7)

 


Bowing to false idol

- The most important thing is understanding that this thing we call 'worship' is idolatry.
- Drawing a picture of the Lord or creating a statue and bowing to it, not understanding what the Divine Being is; knowing that Father Heaven is in Mother Earth and how to honor them.
- We've lost the grand truth.

And you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and burn their wooden images with fire; you shall cut down the carved images of their gods and destroy their names from that place. (Deuteronomy 12:3)

 


Sphinx x

- The mythological beings the Greeks gave us all represent certain ideas they called Olympian 'deities' which Christianity turned into gods.
- There are no gods, unless you understand the word as it was written in Hebrew, as 'loa' or some kind of ruler, authority.
- Although, to the Greeks, the L always referred to the light, or higher consciousness.

I don't plan anything. All is decided by the same power that allowed you to find this spot. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Light and consciousness

- Zeus is Theos, theater; where we are observing not just light, but understanding consciousness.
- We see that Zeus led all these nymphs and mythological beings which represented archetypes such as love, wisdom and grace.
- Through mythology, the Greek Olympians defeated the Titans, who were the brute, physical carnivores with animalistic natures that had relations with the daughters of men.

In a world where death is the hunter, my friend, there is no time for regrets or doubts. There is only time for decisions. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Spirit and flesh

- We were mixed and have both sides, we had Cain and Abel, flesh and spirit.
- If you study the Bible, you discover that Cain and Seth, who replaced Abel as progenitor, had families and their children all shared the same names; only backwards and upside down.
- Enoch is the first in the line of Cain, and the seventh in the line of Seth.
- All the other names are found in each family, some are spelled slightly different.

 

It is best to erase all personal history because that makes us free from the encumbering thoughts of other people. I have, little by little, created a fog around me and my life. And now nobody knows for sure who I am or what I do. Not even I. How can I know who I am, when I am all this? (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Lamech, wild man and strong youth

- The last of these was a woman, Naamah, the daughter of Lamech and wife of Noah.
- And Noah was the son of Lamech, from Seth's side of the family.
- They're both children of Lamech, but one through the flesh, and the other through the spirit.
- Naamah is where we get the word 'mama' and she married Noah, who is Anu.
- Home of the brave.

 

For me the world is weird because it is stupendous, awesome, mysterious, unfathomable; my interest has been to convince you that you must assume responsibility for being here, in this marvelous world, in this marvelous desert, in this marvelous time. I wanted to convince you that you must learn to make every act count, since you are going to be here for only a short while; in fact, too short for witnessing all the marvels of it. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Hoodie

- We have to learn the meanings of all these beings, archetypes, that dwelleth in the pleroma inside us bodily, you are the Elohim.
- We do not bow to gods, that's false ideas, idol worship; you can make your belly your god, your authority.
- But if you don't understand the true authority, the light; that the Heavenly Father is light and he dwelleth in unapproachable light, it's infinite and we will never attain unto that because it's eternal progression and that's a truth.

 

We either make ourselves miserable or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)


Muskrat

- You must understand that the power is within you and stop seeking external powers and sources and bowing to an idol, or some idol in your mind.
- The one who you serve, we all serve; it's the reality that we serve, not a hoax, not a great deception from the devil.
- Anything that is not of the Heavenly Father is of the devil such as  the Cyclopes, the Giants, and the Hundred-Handed.
- All this mythology is a parabolic story and is the same story as the Bible just written in a different way.

 

Nobody knows who I am or what I do. Not even I. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Titans at bottom of the wheel

- The Greek Olympian story is Israel when they went and conquered the Land of the Giants.
- The Olympians fought the Titans, it's the same story and Zeus threw some of the Titans into Tartarus at the bottom of the wheel.
- When spring comes and Orion, which is Zeus, rises on the horizon, and right behind him is Isis, the star of Sirius, and they rise in the spring and they're going into the light, climbing the mountain which is Olympus, the mountain of El, which is the summer solstice.

 

You say you need help. Help for what? You have everything needed for the extravagant journey that is your life. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)



Queen bee

- We're going into the light and the Divine Mother, who is sort of a queen bee.
- There's a beehive right at the apex of Cancer, above the mountain, and that's where the Divine Mother lives.
- As the stars on the bottom of the wheel started moving up, they were going through their time of learning; moving through the astrological houses and they were baptized by John, January.

You are here, with me, because you want to be here. You should have assumed full responsibility by now, so the idea that you are at the mercy of the wind would be inadmissible. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)


Spring equinox

- Then they were swallowed up by the Beast and went three days and three nights in the belly of the whale.
- From January through February to March, and the spring equinox on March 21, and from there the first of April springs into the light of Horus who rises on the horizon.

The dying sun will glow on you without burning, as it has done today. The wind will be soft and mellow and your hilltop will tremble. As you reach the end of your dance you will look at the sun, for you will never see it again in waking or in dreaming, and then your death will point to the south. To the vastness. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Set is an animalistic nature

- Set and his evil brother going into the darkness, but we came out of the darkness and we rose and we were exalted.
- And those on top who were the animalistic natures were sunk and thrown to the bottom of the wheel.
- We all go through this cycle and at the end of 1,000 years, the dragon (dark night of the soul) is going to be let loose out of his prison and there will be another time of judgment.

 

Not to fix the spirit was to seek death, and that was the same as to seek nothing, since death was going to overtake us regardless of anything. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Wheel turning oculus

- Another cycle, another test, the wheel keeps turning, but we will progress.
- We will no longer have to learn what we already mastered, but another generation will come along and they will go through the cycles that we've gone through, and we'll have to teach them.
- What is the meaning of the star systems in the 12 Houses and why we say House of David, or House of the Pharoah, which means House of Ra; so now we know what this is all about.

 

A warrior must focus his attention on the link between himself and his death . . .. He must let each of his acts be his last battle on earth. Only under those conditions will his acts have their rightful power. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Pisces fishbones

- They were talking about the houses in the sky and there are rulers in those houses.
- There are many stars in every one of these houses, but the constellation that rules the house is the animal nature associated with that constellation.
- These animal natures are spirits, they have feelings and they lust, they want, and they're carnivores, meat eaters; the lower nature that we all were ruled by.
- We move through all the houses with reincarnation to learn all the lessons, each house has strengths and weaknesses.
- The 12 houses are called the Great Year.

In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know. (John 14:2-6)




Genetics

- We have genetics today, and the word comes from the Greek word gene, which means a race or family.
- We are all predisposed to act like the sun in the house we were born, and in Genesis, we learned that the sun, the moon and stars were made for signs and seasons.
- Living in the little bubble we call Earth, we can see all the stars, very far away, but we don't know what it's like there, and it takes thousands of years just to get to the first star traveling at the speed of light.
- We have to have another method for determining how far away those stars are, because they're so far away they're not even in our time dimension (time line).

 

I’m so far away from the sky where I was born. Immense nostalgia invades my thoughts. Now that I am so alone and sad like a leaf in the wind, sometimes I want to weep, sometimes I want to laugh with longing. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)

 


Constellation

- Those stars are so far away, they're not even in our reality, we couldn't even comprehend unless we had  a mathmatical formula calculating miles traveled at the speed of light.
- Well if you did manage to travel there at the speed of light and it took 1,000 years, everyone you knew on Earth would be dead for hundreds of years.
- So if you ever reached there, you'd be in a different time line.
- All these stories you hear about space travelers, it's not like they could come here, not in the way we're being told, this lie, this hoax.
- Because if they come here in spaceships, you can't go any faster than the speed of light, without turning into light.

 

We hardly ever realize that we can cut anything out of our lives, anytime, in the blink of an eye. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)




Cosmic sandstorm

- Light is what makes up the universe, the ingredients, if you go back in time to the very essence of what existence is, it's just thought, we're in a thought bubble.
- If there were beings existing in the universe, we couldn't communicate with them as we know it, because it's in the past, except in the spiritual.
- But not in the physical, there couldn't be a machine that could communicate with them, but only through your dreams could you connect, because you're attached with a silver cord.

Things don't change, only the way you look at them. (Carlos Castaneda)

 


Stardancer

- You can dream about the past in your mind, or bring up memories, but you can't go there physically.
- Aliens don't exist, at least not flying around in ships, that's a hoax.
- We can however, communicate with the past; that's what the German's were doing with the star Aldebaran which is located right above the Pleaides and Taurus constellation, toward the center of the galaxy, which is in the past.

Feeling important makes one heavy, clumsy and vain. To be a warrior one needs to be light and fluid. (Carlos Castaneda)

 



Spiral galaxy


- The galaxy is like a spiral that starts in the center tightly coiled and then moves out like a tornado, starting at the bottom (or the negative) and it goes around and comes out the top.
- As it progresses through time, the stars explode in an amazing display of energy that comes around to where it begins in a figure eight (infinity).
- The Buddhist scriptures call it Nirvana and it's literally a trillion years.
- It takes a trillion years and it's one of the ages that are based on 360 years and 3,600 years which all goes back to the Sumerian and Hindu.

But now you must focus your attention on everything that exists on this hilltop, because this is the most important place of your life. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)



Nova

- It will take a trillion years to explode like that Nova and become consciously aware and for your spirit to be released from this bubble of consciousness.
- The most detailed in sacred writings is Nirvana and that is a trillion years, you can't achieve it by sitting around doing nothing.
- We've been in this procession of a trillion years, so each of the houses have some kind of influence in our existence and evolution.

...to tune the spirit when someone is trampling on you is called control. (Carlos Castaneda)





Laying on of hands

- Truths that prophets like Joseph Smith, pre modern Mormon, restored when he brought back Christ's vision of priesthood, is a free gift that is granted to anyone who seeks it.
- The 'laying on of hands' is something Smith restored, the philosophy that when you're having a personal touch, you're discipling and teaching.
- Since the Holy Spirit is the one who teaches us everything, you're one-on-one working to disciple like the master, and mentor so that others can grasp the Heavenly truths.
- The networking and connecting everything into One.

Life in itself is sufficient, self-explanatory and complete. (Carlos Castaneda, Journey to Ixtlan: The Lessons of Don Juan)


Gathering of Israel

- When Joseph Smith came, he brought these keys which he opened up the restoration of the 10 tribes of Israel.
- By 1881, Smith was praying for the Judean people to go back to their homeland so that the 10 tribes could be restored, long before the Balfour Declaration in 1917.
- In fact, it was in 1844 that Smith started his gathering and many began to return to their homeland, a regathering that lasted approximately 40 years.

The aim is to balance the terror of being alive with the wonder of being alive. (Carlos Castaneda)




Native

- Smith was also concerned with returning the native people's to their lands.
- By 1881, the Gathering of Israel became very political and Smith was taken down by Young who also brought polygamy to the Mormon religion.
- The idea is not to promote any individual religion, but to highlight prophets who have been misconstrued (lied about) in our upside down history books while in truth, they had great validity.


The basic difference between an ordinary man and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge while an ordinary man takes everything as a blessing or a curse. (Carlos Castaneda)


Ancient books

- About this same time the Balfour Declaration began the restoration of Israel in 1947, many important ancient documents were recovered in the Middle East.
- The Nag Hammadi Library, a collection of thirteen ancient books (called "codices") containing over fifty texts, was discovered in upper Egypt in 1945.
- The Dead Sea Scrolls, also called the Qumran Caves Scrolls were uncovered over a period of 10 years, between 1946 and 1956, in the West Bank, on the northern shore of the Dead Sea.

Only as a warrior can one withstand the path of knowledge. A warrior cannot complain or regret anything. His life is an endless challenge, and challenges cannot possibly be good or bad. Challenges are simply challenges. (Carlos Castaneda)

 


Starseeds

- Edgar Cayce is another important modern day prophet who believed the origin of humans came from the stars.
- Cayce realized when we think of God and the afterlife, we look to the sky, and he believed it was because we possess inner knowing or memory that we have all forgotten about.
- He believed that as time progresses, we will 'wake up' and start to receive information from 'aliens' or 'starpeople' from different star systems.
- Cayce was the one who introduced the idea of spiritual 'starseeds' from other star systems that reincarnate on Earth to help raise our level of understanding of the cosmos.




Fifth dimension stars

- There are many different star systems in our universe and some of the most familar to us include; Pleiades, Arcturus, Sirius and Orion.
- Cayce identified the Arcturians as the most advanced of the star systems as they live in the fifth dimension and are highly advanced in spirituality and technology.
- It has been said that the Arcturians know how to move through time and space using sacred geometry and they are also believed to be responsible for crop circles.


He alone stretches out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea. He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the constellations of the south. He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. (Job 9:9)




South down the arm of Orion

- If you look south, you're looking down the arm of Orion to the center of the galaxy, and that's our past, so any inhabitants wouldn't be as advanced (our ancestors).
- They may have had more spiritual abilities, however, they wouldn't have the material technology and advancements we have today.
- If you're looking north, to the pole star, Arcturus resides there, which confirms what Edgar Cayce said about going north as being more advanced.
- Which is the story about how we came from the south, the center and we're going north and expanding.
- And this is the same way a child grows up and away from his parents, you expand and go out from the center.


The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. (Psalms 19:1)





Kolab

- Arcturus is towards the Arctic to our north, which is something Joseph Smith talked about when he said everything revolves around Kolab (the place nearest where God dwells), including all the stars.
- The ancient Arabian's and Islamic named the star next to Arcturus Kolab after they took over the study of astrology from the Babylonians.
- Christians were steered away from astrology so they no longer were involved in the study.


And when you look up to the sky and see the sun, the moon and the stars—all the heavenly array—do not be enticed into bowing down to them and worshiping things the LORD your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven. (Deuteronomy 4:19)





Polaris pink

- Kolab was the pole star, but the location of the pole star will change from time to time because of the Earth's wobble.
- Polaris, our current pole star, will reach it's Zenith in a few short years, but in the past, Kolab was the center.
- Polaris in Egyptian meant the Phoenix rising, and that is the Christ child.
- Once Polaris reaches it's Zenith, it will be the full exaltation of man so if you're looking toward the north, to the North Star, that's where we're exalted, and we go further and continue to advance.

God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. (Genesis 1:17-18)





Egyptian

- Jesus himself is our elder brother, if you don't understand this, you don't have the truth.
- The keys of the grand priesthood were restored by Joseph Smith in 1844, and once the church becomes apostate such as the Mormon church, everything starts over, we don't wait 1,000 years in confusion like the 'powers that be' are lying to you about.
- Smith sent individuals to pray in Israel at Mount of Olives to open that area back up for the restoration of the Jewish people, NOT for a country named Israel by some Brit.
- Israel has a different homeland, they all went into the nations and into their respective houses around the wheel.
- Shem went east, Ham went south, and Japheth went north to the Caucasian.


The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.) These were the three sons of Noah, and from them came the people who were scattered over the whole earth. (Genesis 9:18)





The Greening of Africa

- Smith believed that the Lost Tribes were the Native American's here, the Chinese in China, and the African's in Africa, but they were NOT the Jews (who are just one tribe, Judah).
- He believed that the Gentiles are the nations that will restore the stick of Ephraim.
- Now you know why our most important prophets were murdered and their true ideology deleted and changed into an apostasy by the demonic 'powers that be' that are trying to rule over everything.


The LORD will scatter you among all the nations, from one end of the earth to the other, and there you will serve gods made of wood and stone, gods that neither you nor your ancestors have ever worshipped before. (Deuteronomy 28:64-68)




Little green man in his tower - surge protector

- We don't follow tradition or ritual, but the Holy Spirit is given knowledge (comes inside each of us) and brought back to knowledge to anyone who is sincere, by the restoration of the stick of Ephraim (fruitful Joseph).
- The rest of restoration, the truth.
- Judaism teaches bondage, the 10 tribes went out into the world and created the religions of the world, a multitude, which will be restored and we will find they all have one common source, the original holy writings, hieroglyphs.
- A monument that will stand at the border and the midst of Egypt, and that is the Great Pyramid, the Pillar of Enoch.
- Thoth is where we get the word thought and Logos is logic, an expression of the Divine Being, and Thoth was the primordial Jesus, in Greek he was Hermes.
- Three times majestic and he came to the Earth three times, crucified from the founding of the world.
- So once again...


Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. (Revelation 1:7)
