The Dreaming Body is Not a Ghost | Carlos Castaneda
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR DREAMS BY BECOME AWARE THAT ONE IS FALLING ASLEEP | DON JUAN MATUS
Dreaming is a tool that can assist you in finding freedom. Freedom from fear. Freedom from worry. Freedom from becoming overwhelmed. Freedom from guilt. Freedom from depression. Freedom from the trappings of the consumer culture we’ve built our lives around. Dreaming creates Real freedom.
Most of the time when we’re dreaming, we’re not aware of it and just take what’s before us in the dream as real. But the Not-doing of dreaming is when you are aware that you’re dreaming and can take steps to control the dream.
Hello and welcome to the Ancient wisdom modern mind podcast and before I read this extract from “The Eagle’s Gift” by Carlos Castaneda, but first I would like to take a moment to remind you to subscribe to this channel, so go ahead and click on the subscribe button.
In this Podcast I have compiled the relevant sections from “The Eagle’s Gift” that relate to Don Juan’s explanation of how the dreaming body becomes a perfect replica of the dreamer’s physical body. Plus I explore the parallels between Dreaming and Zen, and it is my hope that this will enabling you the listener to assemble a more integrated understanding of dreaming.
