A few weeks ago I began reading all of the books by Carlos Castaneda. So far I've blazed through The Teachings of Dan Juan, A Separate Reality, Journey to Ixtlan and The Second Ring of Power. Currently I'm reading Tales of Power. I have several more to read when I finish that one. I read several of these books many years ago while I was at college. They had a profound effect on me then. They opened my eyes to the fact that there are many ways to "see" reality. Of course at that time I merely had an intellectual awakening to the possibility of alternate appr0aches to reality. However, at this time in my life, each book is having a far deeper impact on me. I am now making the effort to go beyond the intellectual realization. Now I am actively engaged in an effort to have direct experiences of alternate reality tunnels (to use a phrase coined (or repeated) by Robert Anton Wilson). As a teenager I read a book on lucid dreaming. The idea that I could become consciously aware during my dreams fascinated me, but I never made much progress in the minor attempts I made to actually have lucid dreams. The teaching Don Juan gives Carlos Castaneda across several of the early books regarding "Dreaming" has reawakened my desire to become conscious during my dreams. So as soon my re-reading of the Don Juan books reminded me of the possibility to dream lucidly, I began my efforts to "find my hands" in my dreams. I've been doing this for maybe three weeks now. Sadly I've not had any success thus far. Still, I intend to continue my efforts through to success and I will post my experiences here on my blog as they occur. If anyone reading this has had experience with "dreaming" or is actively engaged in "dreaming" experiements, I'd love to hear from you with tips, suggestions, experiences and the like.
