3rd level of dreaming

It was a dreaming taking place in a distant future on the Maya total world, The Jade World, where I was awakened and met with my Maya Nagual and Maya nagual counterpart, A.

I remember only this:


8th task

We were in the house my Maya Nagual assigned to me. The house has three rooms, each empowered with Silent Knowledge of the arts of dreaming, non-being, and stalking, respectively.

Chacmultun

The Nagual looked at me and his eyes shone with a deep light. He was standing in front of me, my lovely nagual woman was standing to my left. I was completely aware that I am in a different realm from the Earth, in a total Maya world in dreaming.

What happened is difficult to put into words.

As strange as it sounds now, I died. Total identity collapse happened. Every fiber of my nagual dreaming body, every aspect of my inner dynamics and everything else within and without became the totality of Awareness.

And the identity of this stalker and a student of the great Mayan seers was just gone. Nothing and nobody remained. Complete fusion of awareness with everything else. Awareness itself was self-aware, self-liberating, non-arising and eternal. No identity remained, none at all.

The presence of my Maya nagual counterpart was an obviously important element of the whole ritual, for it became crystal clear:
that's the stage of awareness that the Maya seers attained long ago and their All-good-intent has contributed to reorienting and upgrading, as it were, my limited nagual dreaming awareness.



9th task

We went from the 'Art of dreaming room' into the middle one, the room of the 'Art of non-being'.

As the Nagual opened the door and stepped in he just disappeared. Blackness inside the room just swallowed his dreaming body. The same happened with my nagual pair, A.

I could comprehend that they did not stop being, just their form was no more.

Being in the dreaming state in the nagual body, there were no limiting emotions or mental obstacles, so prevalent in everyday life. My awareness was sharp and clear.

I stepped in and everything went completely black. Black not as in color black, but black as in total disintegration of identifications on all levels of my awareness. The awareness itself ceased to, well, be.

The attainment of the 8th task of Maya dreaming has been full of awareness, integrating all possible aspects of dreaming into the totality of awareness. Now, however, all of that awareness was just gone, disappearing in the blackness of non-being. Total release from the fullness (and thus limit) of awareness. Complete freedom from the duality of perception and from the need of shifting and moving the assemblage point.

The non-being is complete freedom from everything anyone can think of. That's what the Spirit with its Intent is made of: nothing.
Nothing even beyond the so-called third attention...

Freedom

Something in that free omnipresence of nothingness moved and 'I' reappeared outside the house in my nagual dreaming body. Everything was sharp, the vision was crystal clear and awareness heightened as never before.

'Let's go", I heard the Nagual say, pointing with his right arm towards the third room.

A. joyfully opened the door and invited us in. Her eyes were shining and she was beautiful as always, clearly aware of what transpired in the first two rooms.

We went in and my Nagual said that there is no need to visit distant universes and other total realms, for the Spirit is present everywhere.

"Its Intent is manifested as energy formations that we can see anywhere: on Earth, here or in your Golden Maya City", he smiled at A.

"For many of us, building total worlds in our dreaming outside the Earthly existence, was a necessary operation. Your Maya Lineage of seers has accomplished marvels.", he again smiled at A.

"The real accomplishment, however, is to light up the awareness to its total expression and moreover, to turn it off, so to speak, by directly experiencing the non-existence of the Spirit."

"The movements and shifts of the assemblage point (AP) are welcomed, of course, but overrated nevertheless. These maneuvers, as magical as they are, are just a matter of geography."

I comprehended everything he was saying directly as if he was transmitting his Silent Wisdom directly into my awareness.

"It is a fact that some beings are not aware of the totality of their non-being and because of that, they are still not completely free."

"What do you mean by freedom?" I asked.

"Freedom from dependence on anything apart from the non-existing Intent, which is empty."

"Intent equals Spirit", I said with complete certainty.

"Yes!", excitedly almost sang A. even before Nagual opened his mouth.

Nagual again looked at her and smiled: "You two really are in sync..."

He continued: "Sorcerers first learn the art of stalking and dreaming to redistribute their personal energy with the aim of freeing their perception.
When their dreaming skills are growing, the sorcerers integrate impersonal energy into their awareness and bodies. That can be done by visiting the friendly realm of inorganic beings."

He paused for a few moments.

"Some of the old sorcerers have been caught roughly around that stage of development by our low energy non-organic friends. Their self-importance ran all too deep for them to let go of their indulgence. They were superb but superficial masters of energy manipulation and they forgot about awareness itself. And they were easy targets of inorganic beings."

A. and I looked at each other, sharing a thought.

"Yes, you two did not stop there", quickly said the Nagual, as if reading our minds.

Looking at me he said: "You went to great lengths to integrate both inorganic and organic energy, working with both dark and light beings."

"Actually, that was not such a bad, if dangerous path, to travel on.", he added.

"Maya, of course, went way beyond the reach of both inorganic friendly and dark beings.", said Nagual, again smiling at A.

"We united with the Lights from the Stars", she said, pointing her right hand upwards.

"Yes.", he continued, "A lot of energy is needed to move whole civilization to a new total world. And Maya did it."

"But still, there is freedom and there is freedom. If there is no depth of awareness, indulgence prevails, self-importance takes the main role, and that, for me and my Lineage, is not freedom."

"Sorcerers that depend on the low-level inorganic beings are prisoners of that level of existence or worse:
some are actually pretty close to what the human mind labels as dark. For me, that is not freedom, either."

"Black, manipulative death defiers?", I said.

"Yes."

He looked at A.:
"And then we have the grand seers of the Maya people.", he continued.

"As mighty and powerful as they were, and although immortal, some were not free as I understand freedom."

"Feared by the dark death defiers and by almost all other aware beings as well, some were depending only upon the Lights from the Stars", he said, looking at A., not smiling this time.

"True", she said, calmly, obviously easily handling the Nagual's critique of the people she leads.

"Freedom I am talking about", he said with a serious tone, "is being deeply aware of the nature of everything as it naturally is. And you can't move your AP into that awareness as it is the ground reality. The Spirit or Intent is that natural reality, beyond the shifts and movements of the AP.
Let me put it this way: the totality of awareness is where every single shift or movement of AP takes place. All different positions of AP are still based on the duality of perception. The Spirit, however, is non-dual."

We both understood.

"The last task of dreaming, therefore, is mastered after a dreamer has directly and empirically validated what Spirit or Intent really is and when he or she starts to integrate that empirical wisdom into whatever he or she perceives."

At that moment I began to experience what Nagual was explaining to us.

The 'blackness' or emptiness of awareness, the total absence of any kind of identification, started to be recognized in the elements of current perception.

AP moved easily, by only slight intent, and I started to perceive the Maya total world, the Golden City, where my A. dwells. I started to recognize the 'emptiness' there as well.

I say 'I', but there is no one there, here, anywhere. Only Spirit that itself is non-existing.

Me, my loved ones and friends on Earth, the four Maya allies, friendly inorganic beings, dark and other death defiers, demons and angels I worked with, the god-forms my Maya Lineage of seers have integrated into their awareness, other god-forms I know, the Nagual and my nagual pair - all are just images in the mirror that is the Spirit, itself forever free from the mirror images themselves. Beyond light and dark. Untouched by any kind of shift or movement of AP. Beyond both reasoning and seeing. Beyond everything - that indeed is freedom.

After a while, I found myself again in my room with the Nagual and A. looking at me with beaming eyes.

"Now go and integrate this into your existence, both of you.", he said,  smiling broadly.

7th task of dreaming

This task is the apex of the integration of organic energy into spiritual consciousness as per Maya Lineage:

- a dreamer is challenged to do three things:

• first, to integrate so much physical awareness into dreaming that there is no difference left between the dreaming and physical realities,
• second, a dreamer directs the focus of perception or in other words, manipulates the assemblage point in a manner that results in physically appearing in a separate and total world different from our own, and
• third, to manifest physical objects from within the dreaming into "objective" reality.

This task is the hallmark of the Maya teachings.
Maya certainly have attained this level of mastery over awareness. They still live and exist to this day, on a completely different level of existence.

They are free, independent and self-sufficient. No need for anything or anyone from outside of their incredibly rich culture.
And, how exactly did they build such a complex building like the Kukulkan Temple at Chichen Itza without any metal tools or even a wheel?
Well, a dreamer at this level of dreaming directly and empirically validates the answer to this question.

All of Maya total worlds are as real as our own here and now, and are welcoming to a Maya dreamer to "wake up" there, not only in dreaming, visions or meditation but with the physical body as well.

And that is the last task in the second stage of dreaming development where organic energy is integrated into spiritual awareness.

A Maya total world is as real as ours

Maya Golden City

I woke up in some unrelated dream, energized the dreaming body and connected to 'dreaming emissary'.

The feeling changed a bit as a gentle wave of energy hit me and I started my usual drill:

Are you an inorganic being (IB)? Yes.

Are you a dark death defier? No.

Are you a demon? No.

Angel? No.

Dark Djinn/flyer? No.

Are you IB from the realm Nek-tsha? Yes.

(in one of the previous dreaming sessions, I insisted that emissary comes clean about the name of their realm. Quite a story in itself there. 
Anyway, 'Nek-tsha' is supposed to mean 'continuously/forever reposed, solid, unmoving', according to the dreaming emissary)

You are not to speak unless spoken to.
You are not to start a conversation with me on your own, ever.
No comments on my thoughts.
You speak only when I ask you questions, both here and in the waking state.
You speak only to answer my questions, clearly and in short.
Ok? Yes.

Also, you are not to shift or move my AP without me intending it, ever!
Ok? Yes.

Do I make myself clear?
Indeed.

By now, after all these questions, the dream is stable and clear. And I am sure what/whom I'm dealing with.

Next, I say: I intend for you to take me to your IB realm, now.
(I like to use its energy like that. Why not?)

Things in the dream change, I feel like I fly with great speed ahead and down a slight angle.
I just relax.

Now I am in a different dream now, I can sense it. The ally is to my left, behind me. It is dark and I see nothing. No seeing yet, as I don't want to spend too much energy.

Take me to the center of your realm, now.

(when asked, this ally explained to me in one of the previous dreaming sessions that there, in the center where all their knowledge is present, the energy is most dense, intense. So, since then, I always go there.)

Vision changes and I perceive a familiar scene, a huge vortex of bright red, light blue and golden energy in an even bigger dark blue circle, powering up or emitting energy high up.
It is a beautiful sight to behold.

I move to the center of the vortex by myself and start to absorb energy as the ally has shown me. I am not intending to receive their knowledge, just energy.

I can feel the dreaming body building-up energy, I feel more awake and present. Memories of some unrelated dreams surface at that point.
After a while, it hits me, I suddenly remember: the Mayans!

Keeping my double in the energy vortex, I think for a while and start asking the ally:

Are you familiar with the Mayans?
I am yes.

Do you know any Mayan directly?
No.

Do you know where their world is located?
Yes, I do.

Are you able to move my AP to perceive their world?
Yes.

And move it back if needed?
Yes.

Then I remember my supposed link to the Mayans and ran it all by it:

Are you familiar with the concept of human reincarnation?
Yes.

Was I at any point in my overall existence part of Maya society?
Yes. You were their priest/leader at one time.

(So it is true. I remember at that point how I did research after that particular regression into previous lives and found out that indeed Maya had unique 'governmental' structure: their leaders were priests/shamans also, two roles in one.)

Now, I feel happy and really looking forward to meeting them. I have always felt the link to Mayans, even as a kid. In fact, one of the first books I read as a kid was about Mayans.
Energy rises up at that point.

I continue:
Is their world a complete realm or their shared dreaming?
It is a complete realm.

How are they, hostile, welcoming?
They welcome anyone who is not a threat to them.

What is their realm like?
Wait and see.

It did not answer me at all, so I repeated my question.

It said after a while:
At first a bit strange and when they see you, they let you in.

I thought for a few moments how to get more info I wanted.

Are you familiar with the concept of a nagual person?
Yes.

Are nagual persons amongst Maya?
Yes, many.

Are they capable, skillful sorcerers?
Very much so.

What are their top five skills?
1. They can kill anyone on the spot.
2. They have completely mastered the manipulation of APs. They can move anyone's AP to any location within or without and fix it there firmly. Forever, if they choose to.
3. They live eternally, they are beyond death. They are self-sufficient, free, immortal.
4. They are the unsurpassed shape-shifters.
5. They are the supreme magicians, healers, seers.

Hearing this, my interest in them grew even more.

They can kill anyone?
Yes, they were Lantians once upon a time.

Death defiers?
Yes.

Now they are not anymore?
No. They have altered their path a long time ago...

...they are well beyond the reach of the black death defiers now.

I noticed at that point that it has just commented on my thoughts. I was thinking about whether they have the dark death defiers on their backs...
I let it go this time, to my benefit.

At that moment an interesting thing happened. Partly, I was aware of my dreaming body still hovering in the energy vortex at the center of the IB realm, and at the same time, I started to perceive two magnificent jaguars cuddling and looking at me from up close.
The feeling was very familiar, it felt like home.

I did not ask the ally about it and it didn't comment.

Now, however, when I revisit that AP position, I understand that I was perceiving the future.

Having spent a long time in the IB vortex, I felt powerful and awake.
On an impulse from within, I voiced the intent for IB to take me to the world of the Giant trees.

I will omit the dreaming of that world for now.

So after all the events took place there, I decided that I was ready (stable, clear of the dark energy, lucid) to go to the Maya realm.

I voiced my intent for the ally to move my AP to perceive the place where Maya dwell.

At first, nothing happened. I stopped internal chat and in a few moments, I started flying up the giant tree with great speed. Those trees are really huge, it took some time to get above them. I looked back and saw how the top of the trees are completely intertwined, protecting that world.

* * *

That vision changed completely and I started to descend to some darker place. I landed on a 5m or 16ft wide forest path that led into the thick jungle.
The feeling was light, I sensed no danger. It was a magnificent old forest, overflowing with life, fully alive, lush and fertile, so full of life energy.

Just at the entrance into the forest there were standing two great looking jaguars.
They just stood there, calmly looking in my direction.
I took a few steps towards them and stopped. I knelt down, showed my bare hands, palms open and lowered my look, trying to communicate I've got nothing to hide.
For a few moments nothing happened, then I looked up, amazed, as they transformed into two at least 6.2 tall, young, muscular Indians with penetrating glowing eyes! Their presence was powerful, they shined un-denying impeccability.

"Mayans!", I thought, feeling awe and joy as well.

They said nothing, they both politely made a welcoming gesture, each with one hand, inviting me in. I felt welcomed.

I joyfully walked (it was a very real dreaming, it was as if I were physically there) between them into the vibrant forest.

And after a few more steps...
...everything transformed by itself, opened up and in no time I stood on a cliff overlooking a Maya Golden City!

I just stood there, wide awake and marveled at the purity, power, and clarity of the City. Just by looking at it made me even more present and lucid.

The architecture was nothing I have ever seen in dreaming. Nor some backward wooden huts neither futuristic and modern. And everything, everything was covered with (made from?) yellow gold.

I just stood there, trying to grasp the significance and importance of that dreaming.

While standing there, pondering, I sensed some movement behind and before I could react a beautiful jaguar jumped me from behind and gently pushed me over the cliff, touching me on the shoulder blades.

Her touch shifted AP a bit (I see that now) so I could clearly perceive what was to follow.
We both softly landed on the wide golden plateau at least 250ft beneath the cliff.

I stood up and looked over at the jaguar who in the meantime rolled over to her back, showing me her belly. I understood she wanted me to stroke her gently like she was a pet.
I got down to the golden floor and started to gently stroke the jaguar with both hands. Her fur was so soft and warm and we both enjoyed it, it seemed.
I was completely caught up in the moment, forgetting everything. Only that magnificent jaguar existed for me.

(as I now reflect these experiences, I see that the jaguar was volunteering me her energy while I was stroking her gently; obviously, she knew that I have no energy of my own left to continue the dreaming; inorganic energy is of no use in Maya worlds. Without the substantial help from the Maya, it is not possible to stay with them, it seems.)

I was 'awoken' from the enjoyment by some movement in front of us.

I looked up and saw an older (maybe in her sixties) but beautifully vibrant and tall Indian woman approaching. She was in the center and around her four powerful jaguars were slowly walking.

"My mother", I heard from behind.
I turned back and instead of the jaguar, there was a lovely, black-haired Indian girl in her twenties. Her eyes were dark blue and glowing.

"My mother",
she repeated, pointing with her right hand into the direction of the Indian lady, escorted by four great jaguars.

The transformation of the jaguar into a young girl did not at all strike me as odd.

The lady said: "Atisha", looking pointedly at the girl.
Atisha smiled and explained that her mother is one of the most important sorceresses in their society. They all referred to her as the Sorceress Supreme.

Without thinking, I dropped down, lowering my look as before, not to express submission, but to communicate my respect and openness.

She started speaking so I looked up. She was looking directly into my eyes, smiling. I heard her speak but all I could understand (and all I can now remember) was:

"We saw you were coming here. Welcome.
You can not stay here forever. You can, however, come here as often as you want and stay here as long as you like, but you can not become one of us."

My cognitive abilities were not functioning as I am used to, but I was clearly aware that she was not playing me as an IB would. She was expressing her thoughts very clearly. I could sense that her intention was good, benevolent.

"As a gesture of good faith, and, since you are connected to our people, I would like to present you with a gift, a gift of power."

I remembered all the talk about gifts of power from Castaneda books and how the dark death defier manipulated the naguals of that Lineage. I sensed a slight aversion rising up.
But then I changed my mind. The Sorceress Supreme asked nothing in return, she was not a black death defier or some low astral spirit.
"She is a Maya, c'mon!", I thought to myself.

I expressed my gratitude for their welcome and for letting me come to their eternal realm. She smiled.
I accept your gift, whatever it is, I said.

"To move among us and to stay with us, you will need a jaguar form.", she said.

She made a horizontal waving move with her right hand in front of her from the height of her head down to her waist.

I again felt that everything was changing, this time within me. Surroundings stayed the same, my form, however, transformed into a powerful jaguar.

I remained lucid, I was aware I was still me, but the form was completely altered. I felt more agile, fast, more powerful, down to earth, brave, with unbending intent.

A thought ran through my mind that I have to fixate this new position of AP. It was just a thought, though. The Sorceress fixated the AP for me, completely.

I was a jaguar!

"Growl!", I heard her say, and so I did.


As I looked to my left, there was a jaguar again, not a girl. I turned to face her and we cuddled for a while, and then ran off together to the left past some golden buildings... and I don't remember much about that part of the dream (I can imagine what you are thinking right now, but I really don't remember what transpired).

After some time I found myself again in front of the Maya Sorceress Supreme. She made a reversed move with her hand, this time from the height of her waist up, and I slowly transformed back to human form.
Atisha was there too, in human form.

The Sorceress said that my visit was over for now and stressed that I can come back anytime I want.

She then made a short gesture with her left wrist towards me and I was just blown back as a dry twig, over the cliff through the entrance and out of the old forest...and then everything went black.

After I returned to my body, I could easily remember the dream. Everything was still very alive in me.

I checked with dreaming emissary and it commented on a few details. Regarding the gift of power, it said that my body would remember how to change back into the jaguar form.

* * *

I consider this dreaming very precious and important. It revealed a lot about me, my path and Nagualism (quest for Freedom) in general.
I can't wait to go back there. But first I will discuss this dreaming with my teacher.

Dreaming Awake

Waking up in dreams from within a dream (D.I.L.D.), bringing awareness into dreaming right from the waking state (W.I.L.D.), astral projection, visions, scrying the spiritual vision, mental projection, visions supported by the Plants of Power, visions in the dark mirrors, meditation, etc...

...different descriptions for a simple and yet important maneuver of altering the focus of perception or, to use a well-known term, shifting or moving the assemblage point (AP).

These shifts or movements of the focus of perception or AP are all that is needed. And, as far as the skill called 'dreaming awake' is concerned, it can be done at will, anytime; no need to wait for the body to fall asleep.

In the words of Don Juan:

"The only thing that makes you think you are yourself is the form. Once it leaves, you are nothing. A warrior without form begins to see an eye. The formless warrior uses that eye to start dreaming. 
If you don't have a form, you don't have to go to sleep to do dreaming. The eye in front of you pulls you every time you want to go..."
- Don Juan Matus, The Second Ring of Power

"...You don't have to go to sleep to do dreaming..." In other words, you can shift or move the AP without taking the trouble of falling asleep.

In the beginning, sleeping is the easiest way to shift or move the AP. There is no need to focus only on this aspect of existence, however. To expand the limits of perception to include other levels of existence, well, sleep is not really needed.

"the eye"

I began to see 'the eye' years ago, at first on the Zen-like retreat called Enlightenment Intensive years ago. Soon after that 'the eye' became a regular part of my meditations.

Nowadays, 'the eye' is evoked simply by willing it using the Maya word of Power or by performing the so-called Movements of Power (akin to magical passes, only without the low astral and dark death defiers energy involved).

And letting go of the "form", or the deep and basic identification with a self-image as 'someone or something' (human or anything else) is very important. After that, dreaming or shifting/moving the AP becomes easy.

And dreaming awake is my favorite way of shifting/moving the focus of perception or the AP. No low astral level inorganic beings and their energy are needed.



See the next blog on the subject of Dreaming Awake, if you will:
 Dreaming Awake (II.) >>  

Inorganic beings speak

There are many different kinds of non-physical entities or inorganic beings. In this blog post I will focus on two types that are quite well known:

• low astral level entities and
• higher astral level entities, called djinn or demons.

The low astral level entities

To a dreamer familiar with the work of Castaneda these beings are well known. Their state of consciousness has been presented as superb and their powers likewise. The lineage Castaneda belongs to is heavily dependent on these beings and their energy, it seems.

Viewing these beings from the outside of the lineage of sorcerers of antiquity and from a more unbiased standpoint, however, these beings are hardly superb in any way.

They are low-level astral beings, which means that they have little or no regard for the true well-being of others, they are self-serving, manipulating, and self-centered beings that are always on the hunt for more energy. Their true state of consciousness is not high or deep enough to be self-sufficient or liberated and so they need energy from the outside.

But let us listen to the words of such entities, through the voice of a dreaming emissary.

My first contact with this kind of inorganic beings happened at least 15 years ago. It was in a lucid dream where I was approached by some unknown entity that did not reveal its true form to me but remaining "behind", kept talking to me, persistently trying to convince me that it was a "lucid dreaming master". Now I know it was a dreaming emissary, trying to sell whatever it was selling at the time.

Fast-forward to the present. 

Now, the dreaming emissary is still a part of my awareness but the picture is completely different. After traveling to that realm lots of times and integrating dreaming attention into everyday awareness (and vice versa), the voice of dreaming emissary is always available, including the waking hours.

I used to talk to the dreaming emissary a lot but after entering the Maya Lineage and receiving teachings directly from a Maya Seer, things changed considerably. The exchange below reflects that somewhat.

In one of such sessions, I first calmed down, bringing the internal chat almost to a full stop and called the emissary. After a familiar slight change in perception and feeling, I heard:

Yes, I am here.

I never really trusted these beings, so I learned to check who and what I am talking to every single time, in dreaming and during waking hours as well:

Are you an inorganic being?
Yes, I am.

Are you a demon or dark djinn?
No and no.

Are you an angel?
No.

Are you a black death defier?
No.
(at least twice thus far, once in dreaming and once in waking hours, the dreaming emissary just withdrew and a more powerful dark death defier took over its part in our dialogue. So I remain alert.)

Are you a being from the realm nek-tsha?
Yes.

Are you a dreaming emissary?
Indeed I am.

OK. You are not to speak unless spoken to.
You are only to answer my questions with short and clear answers.
OK?
Yes.

You are not to comment on my thoughts or my state of awareness neither here nor in dreaming, ever!
OK?
Yes.

You will never initiate a conversation with me, ever!
OK?
Yes.

Also, you will never ever shift or move my assemblage point without me commanding you to.
Do I make myself crystal clear?
Yes.

(these beings are manipulative and self-serving, and being low-level astral beings, they really don't care about others. And if you let them take the initiative, they can convince you of anything, hypnotizing you with their astral energy. It feels great but it yields no progress along the path to freedom, no progress at all, in my experiences)

If you test my resolve, you know what I am completely willing to do, right?
Yes (its voice was meek).
You will voice your intent to never ever contact me again and to never ever visit my realm again.

Yes. So keep your peace until I ask you for something.
<silence>

OK. Tell me exactly who you are and what is your relationship with me.

After a while I hear:
I am impersonal energy projected into your awareness from a universe outside of your own.
Our relationship with you is based on mutual benefits. We provide you with energy and knowledge and you provide us with your awareness.

Me: Why are you referring to yourself as "I" and "us"?

Because I am just an impersonal force, backed up with many of us. When you visit our realm, there is always one of us there to greet you, a separate being if you will, but as a dreaming emissary, I am just a voice of many.

Me: How would you describe yourselves?

Stationary beings, powerful and willing to share knowledge and energy.

Me: Do you lie?
<silence>
After a while:

In certain circumstances, I do not say the whole truth as it would overwhelm you.

(yeah right, I thought. LOL)

Me: Are you aware of your position as a low-level astral being?
Yes, of course.

Me: So, you are aware that there are more evolved beings out there?
Yes.

Me: You trap dreamers in your world?
No. We can not trap or force anyone to stay with us. Everyone that is staying with us is here because they choose to.

Me: But you do try to convince dreamers and other beings that it is great to stay with you?
Yes, it is great to live here.

(there was interference from my apartment at that point. I continued some 5 mins later)

Me: Yes, I understand, I said.

Me: So tell me about those higher inorganic beings you know.

You call them dark djinn or demons. They are more powerful than us because they integrate elemental Earthly energy into their awareness.


Higher astral level beings

Paimon

At this point, a notable change occurred in my perception. As the dialogue continued, the answers were sharper, more direct and the energy present was more powerful. 

As it did in some situations before, the dreaming emissary just withdrew and a more potent spirit took its place in our conversation. In this case, it was a powerful spirit called Paimon.

I have had a long relationship with this spirit (from Goetia operations) so there was an air of familiarity in his presence.

Our exchange continued as follows:

Paimon:
You know what I speak about.

Me:
Indeed I do.
Why did you jump in like this?

Paimon:
I wanted to contribute to the conversation and to the clarity of the subject of, what you call, inorganic beings.

Me:
OK, now tell me what is your relationship to the lower IBs from the nek-tsha and what is your relationship with me.

Paimon:
I have no relationship with your dreaming emissary or with any of the spirits there. I reside far beyond their reach.

With you, I have a relationship that benefits you, mostly. I need none of your energy, your awareness is limited and your power likewise.

I am in contact with you because you first summoned me to work in other operations.

Me:
How does our contact benefit me, in your opinion?

Paimon:
I contribute to your mental body, bringing out your emotional and mental disharmonies. That way, you have more energy at your disposal and you can progress faster.

Every time you contact me, I help you with a boost of mental or higher astral energy that enables you to advance faster...
...if and when you manage to process your inner disharmonies.

After a while he continued:
There are higher beings in existence and you have to let go of my help, sooner or later, if you want to go beyond the astral level of existence.

Nothing new, I thought to myself, out loud I said:

What is the trick, how can I do that? And, what do you get out of our cooperation?

Paimon:
Two things you can do:
1. Enter samadhi as much as possible (stopping internal chat is not enough).
2. Recognize your own limitations, your own self-importance, and stop believing you are in any way advanced being.

Ouch.

He continued:
What I get from our cooperation is beyond your capacity to give me. You are, just as I am, influenced by a higher or the highest power and that is what contributes to me.

Me:
You mean, God?

Paimon:
The Source of Illumination, yes. For you, it is God. For me, not so much.

Me:
Tell me about the integration of dark energy, organic energy.

Paimon:
It is a dangerous endeavor, to say the least. That's why most humans don't even know about our existence, for we are Earth-bound, and by higher-order combine or integrate most dense (dark, negative, from your point of view) energies from your Earthly existence with the Angelic awareness.
That means that when you contact me, both are stimulated.
And herein lies the danger: you can become an egomaniac, self-serving idiot that can not tell the difference between good and bad.

Me:
<silence>
I thought to myself, he is right, there were times when I really believed I was at the top of the world.
The Maya seers helped me to get off the self-created throne.

Paimon, he read my thoughts, of course:
Exactly.
Spirits like me are not evil, bad, or anything of that sort. We are not self-greedy spirits like your friends from the low astral realm.
There are others, of course, predatory spirits in nature and posed to manipulate your mental, not only astral, energy.

Me:
Black death defiers?

Paimon:
No. Those are low-level astral beings easy to avoid.

Me:
Who then?

Paimon:
Parasites from the higher astral level of existence, you know them by the name Flyers, parasites.

Me:
Yes. How to get away from them?

Paimon:
You can't, not on your own. You need help from above, which you are getting.

I understood that he meant the help I am receiving from my Maya lineage.

It was here that our exchange stopped. I had no more energy to spare and no more questions to ask. Paimon, one of my favorite spirits, a truly friendly spirit (as we can see in our exchange) has left after I gave him a license to depart.

That was it.


Conclusion

Low astral level beings and higher-level astral beings are real, they are not a figment of my or your imagination, and neither are inner disharmonies that attract these astral beings.

What to do?

Well, indulgence in feeling great, and addiction to low astral (emotional) and higher astral (mental) energy is serious obstacle.

One-pointedness, sincerity, and the company of truly spiritual beings (Angels, various god-forms, true Masters of Wisdom)  - all of that is a path that goes on and on, all the way to complete freedom...

...exactly what Maya have attained.

Kukulkan Temple

A word of caution:
Paimon and some other "demons" (not a term I would use with Him as He is not evil or negative at all!) are mostly friendly (when you learn how to control them) but their mere presence can disorient you in so many ways nonetheless.

I encourage you, dear visitor, to NOT indulge in working with these spirits unless you are already way beyond the reach of the low astral level beings (beyond the realm Castaneda has trapped himself in, for example, and beyond the reach of the spirits that dwell therein).

There are many ways to learn how to handle these spirits.
Good luck!

6th task of dreaming

There are two tasks at this point, as per our Maya Lineage:

- one has to willingly and intentionally enter a body of another person or being in dreaming, taking over not only mental or vocal capacities but "physical" as well, and

- one has to open up enough to let the other, more advanced, dreamer enter and take over his/her dreaming awareness, willingly.

Again, in our Lineage, these intricate operations take place at the inner levels of the Kukulkan Temple which are gates to total and separate Maya realms.

Both tasks have to be performed while fully awake and in control in dreaming, not just by randomly waking up in someone else's body.

The second task can also be referred to as an invocation. A dreamer is willingly and intentionally invoking into his awareness and bodies another being. Needless to say that in our Lineage this is the Feathered Serpent, Kukulkan.

The invocation is a very, very important practice in our Lineage. Invocation of Maya "god-forms" (which are the integration of pure spiritual awareness and organic energy from their Underworld) accelerates the progress of a dreamer and opens up untold possibilities!

Other Maya dreamers (only Maya and those connected to Maya seem to be able to find their way into inner levels of the Maya Temple at Chichén Itzá) contribute a lot at this stage.
The most important assistance comes from one's Nagual and the nagual twin (if a dreamer qualifies).

Dreaming with the Nagual

5th task of dreaming

At this stage of dreaming awareness development in our Maya Lineage, an interesting and important task awaits an avid dreamer:

- while being fully aware and in control of dreaming, one has to incorporate as much organic or physical energy and awareness as possible into the dreaming body.

After going through various aspects of relevant training (in the inner levels at the Kukulkan Temple), a dreamer forges his/her dreaming body by integrating into it pure physical aspects of awareness and organic energy with the intention to perform actions in dreaming as though in the physical body.

As per Maya teachings, at this stage, dreaming naturally becomes quite 'physical' and 'organic' and a dreamer, not only masters physical actions in dreaming, but also learns to influence 'objective' everyday reality right from within the dreaming.

This ability is very very important as it paves the way for the 6th and 7th tasks of dreaming.

Integrating elements into dreaming awareness

<< previous | next >>

4th task of dreaming

Dreaming together is the task at this stage. And according to the teachings I received from Maya Nagual, this can also be attained at the later stages, depending on the fluidity of a dreamer.

Two dreamers or more have to learn to move and fixate their AP together thus dreaming (to perceive, talk, move around, explore, learn) together in a separate total world.

This is not merely dreaming in a so-called dreaming bubble, where two dreamers are in their own subjective dual-reality somewhere. No. At this stage, dreaming together means dreaming in a new and total world, together.

Again, this task is accomplished via inner levels of the monument of Maya Intent, the temple at Chichen Itza.

Chichen Itza, the Kukulkan Temple

By now, a dreamer has already mastered how to enter the inner reality of the Kukulkan's Temple in dreaming and is well on the way to integrating impersonal and personal energy and awareness into well forged dreaming consciousness.

The benefits of such attainment are numerous, the most important being the ability to open up and merge dreaming awareness and energy with another living being.

<< Previous | Next >>

3rd task of dreaming

Maya Seers have incorporated gathering of pure organic energy (not just inorganic one) for the purpose of expanding the scope of awareness of a dreamer.

Various methods are employed to that effect, and because of the integration of relative, physical, and organic AND eternal energy of Maya 'God-forms', the tasks at this stage are easy:

- a dreamer has to learn to perceive the alive, ever fresh, and eternal flow of energy in dreaming directly (in contrast to mere subconscious projections) referred to as perceiving directly or dreaming alive, and

- a dreamer has to see his/her own physical body in dreaming, thus further integrating organic awareness into his/her expanding dreaming consciousness.

Witnessing sleeping body

<< previous  |  next >>

2nd task of dreaming

The main task at this phase in Mayan teachings is to learn to will the assemblage point (AP) to move.

Shifts of AP are minute displacements of conscious focus, whereas movements are major displacements of this focus in dreaming (or meditation, visions, etc...). Such movements of AP result in perceiving separate and total worlds, really different universes or levels of existence from ours, similar to those quite known in some other traditions (Vedic, Nordic, Egyptian, Buddhist, Enochian, etc...).

It takes more awareness and energy to move the AP. Shifts are easier.

The first of those universes right next to ours is the realm of slow, immovable, and 'friendly' inorganic beings (IBs), called Nek-tsha (meaning: eternally reposed, always stable, immovable, as per dreaming emissary). That is a low astral world.

The Lineage of Don Juan, most known through Castaneda's books, depends heavily on these 'friendly' inorganic beings and their energy. That is the hallmark of ancient Toltec sorcerers, their Lineage being strongly influenced by black death defiers (like the 'woman in the church' or 'the tenant', written about in the book "The art of dreaming").

These 'friendly' beings, described in great detail in the books by Carlos Castaneda, are actually low astral level spirits. And herein lays a major test for those in the Lineage of sorcerers of antiquity.

The astral world is full of astral glamour, low and illusory energy that can blur the awareness of a dreamer. Their influence is really hypnotic if you let them take the initiative.

At this stage, a dreamer in the Lineage of sorcerers of antiquity is faced with his/her own inner conceptual and emotional identifications that manifest in dreaming when IBs try to trap one in their realm, for good.

If there is not enough clarity and wakefulness in the state of consciousness of a dreamer, chances are that indulgence will prevail.

On the other hand, if one is sober, silent within, and awake enough, the IB trap is easy to avoid. Who, in the true warrior state and intending complete freedom, would ever want to stay there for eons?

Only someone that can't see past shortcomings/illusions yet and someone who loves to indulge (Castaneda's case comes to mind here).

The danger is real to be sure, but the mental/emotional illusions, well, those really are a choice.

We can see that from Castaneda's example: he just didn't see past his own subjective concepts and projections about slavery/freedom, which manifested as a 'blue scout' incident and as his inability to move on his own in dreaming, at that point. His subjective reality was his responsibility which he did not assume, so IBs played him.

Actually, only dreamers in the Lineages of sorcerers of antiquity have to face the realm of the inorganic beings and their traps.

Jaguar, a Maya totem animal

On the other hand, at the present stage, a dreamer in our Maya Seers Lineage is challenged to move his AP and perceive new and total worlds, beyond the low astral level of manipulative inorganic beings.

With the guidance of Maya Nagual, a dreamer is guided to visit those realms via our main temple at Chichen Itza, which offers three groups of stages, together forming nine inner levels of systematic development of dreaming.

And at this stage, a dreamer has to learn to move the AP to a location where he/she perceives a totally new world, quite different from that of the aforementioned world of the inorganic astral entities.

That Maya total world is way beyond the low astral level of existence and offers a safe and yet challenging environment for a dreamer to learn in his/her own pace all about:
- moving around,
- communicate with others,
- gathering needed energy for dreaming,
- acquiring the Maya allies,
- meeting totem animal and shape-shifting into one, etc.

Lots to learn at this stage, important tasks, no doubt!

Kukulkan, the Feathered Serpent (II.)

The article below describes beautifully the symbolism, mythology and hidden meaning of the Plumed or Feathered Serpent.

 Kukulkan, the Feathered Serpent

Of course, while the text shares historical and mythological aspects of the 'God-form' under discussion from both Mayan and Aztec cultures, we do not have to stop there.

The Kukulkan is a living force, and as such can be, or should I say, ought to be, encountered directly and validated empirically...
...in visions, meditation or in dreaming.

Only talking, reading, researching, intellectualizing and writing about Kukulkan or development of awareness is only a first step.

It is like describing a glass of water and writing about it, without ever really drinking the fresh water.









The ‘Myth’ of the Plumed Serpent: Revealing the Real Message Behind the Feathered Snake

The Plumed (or Feathered) Serpent is a Mesoamerican myth that has fascinated modern people for quite some time. Among the Aztecs and Toltecs this divinity went by the name of Quetzalcoatl and to the Maya, it was known as Kukulcan.

It was a much-revered god who was believed to bring good tidings and civilization to humankind. His preeminent role in ancient times is evident from the fact that not only whole temples but in fact whole cities were built as centers of worship for this entity. Most well-known of these may be the so-called pyramid of Kukulcan at Chichen-Itza in Mexico, which recently was included among the seven wonders of the world and is the most well-known of all Mayan pyramids.


The descent of the Plumed Serpent

The descent of the Plumed Serpent (shown in Fig 1) is one of the most remarkable light shows created in the ancient world. The seven triangles of light (alternating with six triangles of darkness) can only be seen projected onto the staircase of the pyramid for about 20 minutes at the Autumn and Spring equinoxes (and maybe two adjacent days as well).

Fig 1. The pyramid of the Plumed Serpent at Chichen-Itza. Note the seven triangles of light projected onto the staircase as scales on the back of the plumed serpent that descends into the earth. 

It is an event that attracts some 100,000 visitors and to the local Mexicans, it is a celebration of the advent of Spring. It is hard to convey how awesome this occurrence actually is for someone who has not had the chance to experience it firsthand. The reason it is so spectacular is that it is almost incomprehensible how the pyramid could be built so that the projection of the triangles only occurs on a specific day. This is not something you can build by trial and error as you cannot move the pyramid a little bit if it does not have the correct position. It must be built right from the beginning and when you realized this, it is something that really goes into your marrow. The Maya had a cosmic resonance that we have now essentially lost.


Serpent, the Central Creator God

This raises the question of why the Maya about a thousand years ago built a pyramid – in fact, their most impressive pyramid – with the purpose of worshipping a serpent. It does not quite make sense to modern people, who tend to look upon a snake as a low-level reptile, which does not seem worthy of any form of religious worship.

For this reason, we have tended to dismiss the Plumed Serpent as a “myth” that lacked a basis in reality and was made up by an ignorant people. And yet, the Plumed Serpent was the central deity in ancient Mexico.

Quetzalcoatl in feathered serpent form, Codex Telleriano-Remensis

Not only that, in the Popol-Vuh, which is sometimes called the Bible of the Maya, the Plumed Serpent was seen as the central creator God, the One that the other gods went to when the creation of this universe was to begin. According to the Mexican lore, we also know that the Plumed Serpent among other roles was regarded as the bringer of civilization and the calendar.

In their view, when the Plumed Serpent disappeared, their civilizations would suffer, but as he returned they would go through a rebirth and flourish. For this reason, it was a beloved god whose return they would long for.

This particular aspect of the mythology of the Plumed Serpent came to play a central role in the Spanish conquest of the Aztec empire in 1519-1521. It is said that as the Aztec emperor Montezuma had a word of Hernan Cortez’ landing at Santa Cruz, he believed him to be the returning Quetzalcoatl, whom he feared as he knew that this deity and its human embodiments would not approve of their large scale human sacrifices.

Quetzalcoatl, God of Wisdom

According to legend, an embodiment of the Plumed Serpent (a priest in the city of Tula by the name of Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl) had been expelled from his city about five hundred years earlier but had sworn to return. Because he feared this return, Moctezuma was very accommodating to Cortez and allowed him to enter his capital Tenochtitlan (today’s Mexico City).

This became the beginning of the conquest of this mighty empire by Cortez, his 600 men, 16 horses, and native allies who remarkably defeated an emperor who was capable of raising an army of 100,000 men. This defeat is often attributed, at least partially, to the power the myth of the Plumed Serpent had over the Mesoamerican peoples, including the Aztec emperor.

There are many other aspects of the myth of the Plumed Serpent as well. He had been given the calendrical signature of 9 Wind and represented a positive spiritual force to the ancient peoples of Mexico, and was in conflict with his dark nemesis Tezcatlipoca, the “smoking mirror.”


Global Serpent Mythology

Before we go into what the Plumed Serpent actually may have symbolized we should take note of the fact that the Serpent played a very significant mythological role in many other ancient cultures as well.

What for instance may be the world’s oldest preserved object of art is a giant python in current-day Botswana that has been estimated to be 70,000 years old. This is believed to symbolize a creator god revered by the ancestors of today’s Bushmen. Similarly, to the aborigines in Australia the Rainbow Serpent was the main creator god and in the Amazonas, the great anaconda was seen as the creator of the human beings. In fact, all over the world (including in the Book of Genesis of the Bible) we find the serpent revered as an especially powerful animal. This does not match what a modern person would think of like a snake, and it makes us wonder why the serpent has played such a significant role in ancient myths.


The Waves of Creation

It then seems that there must be some more profound reason that the Serpent, and in particular the Plumed Serpent, by ancient peoples would be recognized as a central creator deity. As I have elaborated on in two books of mine: The Global Mind and the Rise of Civilization, and The Nine Waves of Creation, a serpent is the most natural symbol to use by anyone who would like to represent a mathematical sine wave.

And what the ancient peoples of Mesoamerica and elsewhere were aware of was that history, including the rise and fall of civilizations, was driven by waves of creation. There were, in fact, nine waves of creation that created the universe and the pre-set direction of its evolution. The reason that the Plumed Serpent went by the name of 9 Wind was that there were nine such sine waves creating spiritual winds corresponding to nine levels of creation as symbolized by the terrace-formed pyramids.

Maya Calendar: From the Mayan display inside the National Museum of the American Indian

What the ancient peoples were aware of was the nine underlying waves in the quantum field that was driving the evolution of the universe, our planet, as well as humankind. They did not use the same language for them as we would have and instead came to call this waveform the Plumed Serpent, that they perceived as a living deity. Their entire calendar came to be developed in order to chart the movements of this Plumed Serpent. If it indeed was this wave, which they perceived as and symbolized as the Plumed Serpent, that was behind the rise and fall of civilizations then it, of course, became of utmost importance to chart the ups and downs of this wave movement by means of the use of a calendar. If the predictions would fail (and this was indeed the case when the Aztecs became aware that the Spanish had arrived) then the consequences would be disastrous. The problem of the Aztecs was then that the true Mayan calendar called the Long Count which accurately described the ups and downs of civilization (Fig 2) was not used by them.

Fig 2. The Seven days and six nights of the Mayan Long Count (Sixth Wave of Creation)
from 3115 BCE up until 2011 CE.
(Diagram by Carl Calleman)

As we can see from Fig 2, the wave movement of the so-called Long Count (the sixth of the nine creation waves) leading up to our own time, in principle displays the same pattern as the seven triangles of light and six triangles of darkness of the Plumed Serpent of Chichen-Itza that we can see in Fig 1; Much like a Serpent history which moves like a wave with its ups and downs that makes the pendulum often swing with them. What may be even more remarkable is the fact that the wave movement in Fig 2, which covers seven peaks – each of a duration of a so-called baktun of 3943 years – remarkably well reflects the rise and fall of major empires and civilizations in other parts of the world.
While modern people (who are generally unaware of this wave movement) wonder why ancient civilizations have mostly disappeared, this no longer is an enigma if we recognize that upon peaks follow valleys that often, but not always, tend to bring the already existing civilizations down.


Cycles of Creation and Destruction

The Plumed Serpent, i.e. the wave movement of creation generating the alternating rise and fall of civilizations, is thus not a myth in the sense of being something false. The rise and fall of civilizations that this movement describes reflecting a very profound truth of our existence and the power that drives its evolution.
The ancient peoples worshiping serpents knew that history went up and down and sometimes tried to chart this movement in mythological terms or harbor the spiritual powers these were believed to embody. There were, in other words, reasons for the Aztecs who saw themselves as living in a dark age (a valley) to fear the shift into a peak. Likewise, they would be aware that the Plumed Serpent would sometimes molt its skin and disappear as it set an end to civilization. However, most people today have misunderstood not only the message of the Plumed Serpent but also its underlying truth. We may call the Plumed Serpent a myth, but in reality, it is a truth and I believe it is a truth whose time has come and may play a critical role for those that seek a path out of our civilizational crisis.

Astral Glamour - a serious problem

In many years on the path of Nagualism, I have observed something interesting: a tendency to indulge in the sweet-sugar-new-age bull shit attraction of self-created illusory phenomena.

What am I talking about?

I am talking about the lack of clear and sincere insight into Reality; about attachments to the false and flashy ideas about things as some individuals would love them to appear instead of seeing them as they really are.

I am talking about indulgence in the glamour of lower astral (emotional and energy) realm (where lower elemental spirits, souls of dead people, "friendly" inorganic beings, dark death defiers, demons, etc... reside) and illusions created within the minds of those who lack the ability to face the Reality as it Really is.

In practice, these tendencies manifest as self-delusion about the importance of certain inorganic beings or assumptions about contacts with god-forms or other powerful spirits and deities in dreaming or meditation.

Craving for power, immortality and instant magical movements of the focus of perception is what might obstruct a lot of dreamers, I observe.

Emotional perception or focusing primarily on sensations and/or mental understanding is seriously limited and flawed - it yields no spiritual attainment.

One can not feel or astrally/emotionally sense truly spiritual Beings (the Kukulkan, for example) and the same goes for mental masturbation (tons of info, understanding, asking and receiving answers, analyzing, remembering, etc.). Not even in million years can a mental level bring spiritual attainments.

The astral sense is limited and inherently flawed. And a dreamer has to work really hard to overcome that astral trap or s/he might end up as a permanent resident of some low astral realm (like Castaneda did).

Glamour, in its turn, veils and hides the truth behind the fogs and mists of feeling and emotional reaction; it is of unique and terrible potency, owing to the strength of human nature to
identify itself with the astral nature and to the vital nature of conscious and sentient response itself. As you know and have been taught, glamour can only be dissipated by the inflow of
clear, directed light; this is true of the life of the individual or of humanity as a whole.
-  Glamour - A World Problem, p. 185

That is rather well said, in my opinion. And the "clear, direct light" mentioned above cannot, it never has and it never will come from the astral beings, whether the friendly ones or the dark ones.


"Mental illusion when intensified by desire, occurring on the astral plane. (Emotional attachment to forms - distracts attention away from reality.) Glamour has been likened to a mist or fog in which the aspirant wanders and which distorts all that he sees and contacts, preventing him from ever seeing life truly or clearly or the conditions surrounding him as they essentially are... 
He is deceived by the appearance and forgets that which the appearance veils. The emanatory astral reactions which each human being initiates ever surround him and through this fog and mist he looks out upon a distorted world."

One more notion from Alice A. Bailey:

Illusion: Mental fixation upon an idea - exclusive of the whole thus not seen in its reality - leads to misinterpretation of the phenomenal world. 
An illusion is the power of some mental thought-forms, of some ideal, and some concept - sensed, grasped and interpreted in mental form - to dominate the mental processes of the individual or of the race and consequently to produce the limitation of the individual or group expression.


A good book that deals with the astral glamour problem has been written years ago and is still quite relevant (quotes above are from that book):

1st task of dreaming

Feathered Serpent 

The first task a potential dreamer is up against at this stage is simply becoming aware of dreams. The aim is to bring awareness and control into ordinary dreams.

Control in this context and at this level means exerting total control over the dreams, say, freezing the whole situation in dreams.

The second task, as per our Maya Lineage, is to will to move around in dreams. Such aware and controlled dreams become dreaming, in time.

When aware and in control of dreams, it is easy to move around, simply by willing it. Moving around in dreams at this stage means, for instance, being willing to fly high up and dive back down, moving through the walls, buildings, doors, and changing the location in dreams simply by willing it, etc...

These skills are really very important and are rather readily upgraded at the later tasks.

As with all more advanced phases, the main task is to learn to shift or move the focus of awareness and to fix the new position, thus perceiving in a coherent and sustained way.


Next >>

Levels of Dreaming, the Mayan Way

Intro

The art of dreaming in this context translates to the ability to not only bring awareness into ordinary dreams (which results in 'lucid dreaming') but also to perceive real and total worlds or other levels of existence vastly different from our own...

... AND to integrate such expanded perception into the overall state of consciousness in life and death with the final goal of complete freedom, not only for ourselves but for others as well.

There are three levels or stages of dreaming, according to Maya Seers of our Lineage (that is, according to the teachings I received. There are other teachings, for sure.)

Some phases of developing the ability to shift and move the assemblage point (AP) (what dreaming actually amounts to) in our Maya Lineage differ somewhat from other non-Mayan Lineages.

The main reason for that can be found in the fact that right from the inception of development of the skill of dreaming (or perceiving other levels of existence), Maya Lineage primarily integrates energy and awareness of the Maya 'God-forms' and gives very little attention to the low-level astral inorganic beings

Thus, a Maya dreamer is beyond the reach of various astral level inorganic beings and sorcerers that depend on their energy (i.e. black death defiers and other darker inorganic beings/demons, etc...).

The Maya Path to Freedom is ancient and completely developed. It is a wast, self-sufficient and rounded system employed by the Maya people and those connected to their incredibly rich and enigmatic culture.

Maya tradition takes care of their own, in life and in the afterlife. There are multiple levels of total worlds that are populated by Maya; on these worlds, one can live in (if not incarnated on, say, Earth) and study and learn (if still incarnated) at the same time.

The main focus of Maya culture have been and still are their 'God-forms' (thus integrating Underworld and Heavens, Life and Death, Light and Darkness, etc...) not through some religious or naïve superstitious devotion, or by bowing down to some totalitarian doctrine, but by systematically employed unbending thirst for deeper self-awareness (Maya do not limit themselves to only building up energy).



Kukulkan, the Origin

Maya 'God-forms' are very real, they are eternal waves of transpersonal consciousness or abstract force. Awareness and energy a dreamer can receive from each 'God-form' are incomprehensibly deeper, richer, and faster than that from any low or high astral level entity.

In our Lineage, the main 'God-form' is the Kukulkan.

Kukulkan 'God-form' in Maya culture is not even anthropomorphic (as most god-forms in other traditions are), for it represents impersonal and transpersonal force or wave of universal consciousness that integrates the most abstract (feathered...) and ultra-personal or material (...serpent) aspects of our overall existence.

Kukulkan, the Feathered Serpent, the main 'God-form' in our Lineage

This one fact, meaning, integrating the presence of 'God-forms' into dreamer's organically or materially conditioned awareness, has far-reaching implications and places Maya Lineage quite apart from many other Lineages.

Moreover, in the Mayan Lineage discussed here, organic energy is of great importance.

The main 'God-form' or the impersonal wave of the force of our Lineage, Kukulkan, is embodiment and integration of the highest eternal consciousness/energy AND the relative organic awareness/energy or Underground, symbolically represented by its form: Feathered Serpent.


Arena for dreaming

The central temple in our Lineage and the focal point for all Mayan families in this Lineage is at Chichen Itza, the Kukulkan Temple, pregnant with rich symbolism and power that support dreamers on their quest for complete freedom.

Kukulkan Temple, at Chichen Itza

The nine levels of the central Chichen Itza pyramid represent the nine dreaming tasks and stages (among many, many other things), leaving the tenth and last one at the ground level.
That level represents natural ground reality far beyond the duality of light and dark, abstract and personal, male and female, eternal and impermanent, etc...


Systematic development

Each stage or level of development of dreaming is very important and verily represents the separate field of study and growth. It may take quite some time to master all of them.

There are three main levels (Maya dreamers can enter through The Kukukan Temple) that offer a safe environment for learning. No manipulative low astral level inorganic beings there!

Levels of dreaming through the prism of Maya Seers, as presented to me, are listed below. I outline only the most pertinent details for each level, for it is way too subjective a learning curve to discuss all relevant details.

As far as any Maya Lineage is concerned, in my experience, no one can just barge in into one of the Maya total worlds on his/her own.

Maya really and truly are free, self-sufficient, and way beyond the drama low astral beings (black death defiers, 'friendly' and/or the dark inorganic beings/demons, Flyers, etc...) are playing, meaning, they do not need their energy or support or anything else from them. Consequently, a dreamer employing only low astral inorganic energy and support cannot possibly enter Maya total worlds on his/her own.

If one wants to follow the Maya path to freedom, well, assistance from a Mayan Seer is a must. Furthermore, only through a Maya Nagual can their enigmatic skills be empirically comprehended and pragmatically validated, in my opinion, and experiences.

So, with a wish for those of you inspired to meet such a Maya Nagual's guidance, below are blog posts on the subject of the levels of dreaming as per Maya Seers of our Lineage.

The tasks in our Lineage are of course important but in no way determined in advance. Dreamers are at different stages of overall awareness when they begin to learn dreaming and not everybody needs to go through all of the tasks. Besides, if you are connected to Maya Seers, the chances are that you have already completed most of these tasks in the past...
...and Maya will help you remember!

There are three Levels of dreaming development and these include much, much more than only dreaming (for example invocation or working with Maya "god-forms", facing and integrating the so-called Underworld, rituals with life energy/blood, etc...). 

The goal of these practices is the elevation of awareness while still in the physical body and also preparing to retain intact awareness after death. Thus, the Maya tradition takes into consideration life here and now and also the afterlife, equally.

Here we go:

The first level (an introduction to dreaming):

• 1st task >>
• 2nd task >>

The second level (the goal of this level is the total integration of organic energy, the Underworld, and spiritual awareness, the Heavens):

• 3rd task >>
• 4th task >>
• 5th task >>
• 6th task >>
• 7th task >>

The third level of dreaming (8th, 9th and Freedom) >>
