More quotes by Carlos Castaneda
Man lives only to learn. And if he learns it is because it is the nature of his lot, for good or bad.
Carlos Castaneda
We chose whether to be warriors or to be ordinary.
Carlos Castaneda
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.
Carlos Castaneda
The hardest thing in the world is for a warrior to let others be.
Carlos Castaneda
... when confronted with unusual life situations... A warrior acts as if nothing had ever happened, because he doesn't believe in anything, yet he accepts everything at its face value.
Carlos Castaneda
A man of knowledge chooses a path with a heart and follows it and then he looks and rejoices and laughs and then he sees and knows.
Carlos Castaneda
...one should never turn to one's left when facing the nagual.
Carlos Castaneda
... everything in the world is a force, a pull or a push. In order for us to be pushed or pulled we need to be like a sail, like a kite in the wind. But if we have a hole in the middle of our luminosity, the force goes through it and never acts upon us.
Carlos Castaneda
All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. However, a path without a heart is never enjoyable. On the other hand, a path with heart is easy - it does not make a warrior work at liking it it makes for a joyful journey as long as a man follows it, he is one with it.
Carlos Castaneda
Once a man worries, he clings to anything out of desperation and once he clings he is bound to get exhausted or to exhaust whomever or whatever he is clinging to. A warrior-hunter, on the other hand, knows he will lure game into his traps over and over again, so he doesn't worry.
Carlos Castaneda
The only thing that is real is the being in you that is going to die.
Carlos Castaneda
My benefactor used to say the seeds are the 'sober head' -- the only part that could fortify the heart of man.
Carlos Castaneda
Man has a dark side, yes, and it is called stupidity.
Carlos Castaneda
For an instant I think I saw. I saw the loneliness of man as a gigantic wave which had been frozen in front of me, held back by the invisible wall of a metaphor.
Carlos Castaneda
Intent is what sends a shaman through a wall, through space, to infinity.
Carlos Castaneda
Burn your bridges every 2 years.
Carlos Castaneda
The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same.
Carlos Castaneda
A warrior chooses a path with heart, any path with heart, and follows it and then he rejoices and laughs. He knows because he sees that his life will be over altogether too soon. He sees that nothing is more important than anything else.
Carlos Castaneda
The body must be perfection before the will is a functioning unit
Carlos Castaneda
A warrior considers himself already dead, so there is nothing to lose. The worst has already happened to him, therefore he's clear and calm judging him by his acts or by his words, one would never suspect that he has witnessed everything.
