Oh wise Juan Matteo, it is all about the will! He is correct, leap into the Nagual! Attach your fibers to the Uncreated One, the source of all energy and limits! Charyn, I thought of you because I was traveling from Ur to Canaan and stopped in Haran (I did this without leaving my room). Only then did I remember that Haran is AKA Charyn! How do you reconcile Castaneda with Rand though? best wishes.jkratzer
