The Fire from Within

On time sndcwellnoscksged

Interesting read. I read all in the series.

This book transcends a rating system since it is the revealed wisdom of ages of wisdom. The ancient shamans of the new world were devastated by the conquests; but, the survivors, the new Seers, kept the essentials, and since they were forced to secrecy, they refined the wisdom teachings. They kept the essential aspects, guided by their Seeing, and discovered new principles.Wisdom is revealed that living things are assemblages of sentient superstrings and that we may rearrange our assemblages to be free of the limitations of the world we perceive. We. are entangled. We can seek freedom through the creation of the double and engage in non-local activities. There exist sentient beings who are not inhabitants of our current world view, the inorganic beings. There is so much more to reality than the outdated paradigm of mechanical materialism.Those who criticize this as a rehashing of other ancient wisdom teachings definitely did not understand what was said here. Those who criticize this work for lack of character development must have mistakenly thought they were reading a fictional novel and not a true accounting of tales which transcend the ordinary.Warning, you cannot comprehend this through intelligence and ego, you must have some experience with the higher forms of perception, the second and third attention: or at least some experiences with deep meditation or 'the seventh sense'. This book is about stopping the mind and accessing direct perception. If you are a searcher for higher wisdom and have experienced more than the ordinary, then this book is a timeless treasure.

Amazing book!

"The Fire from Within" was an easy read compared to another Castaneda book I read years ago, "Magical Passes". One key message I enjoyed was about getting past our obsession with ourselves simply for how much of our energy is freed to do other things,There were a number of incredible stories in "The Fire from Within" that highlight the difference between how I was taught Reiki and how I teach Reiki. I wonder if all teachings can claim these big differences or if they are specific to the naguals.All in all, this was a good read for anyone who enjoys reading about different ways to work energy.

The Fire From Within is a marvelous book - both in content and presentation. I couldn't ask for better. Castaneda writes with what he calls "intent" and that means that he can manipulate your mind without your consent. The genius that it would take to accomplish such a feat would alone be enough to say that the books are of significance.The Fire From Within is the last teachings on the art of awareness. Don Juan and Don Genaro walk Carlos through deep territory and vast realms. The worlds beyond peripheral are fantastic and the lessons imbued with transcendent meaning. To truly grasp the full depth of this writing takes something that you won't have on the first reading and may never have. To get it takes a mind of resolve.Read it; don't read it. It all depends on you.

The book arrived in perfect condition. Very Well packed. Shipped quickly.Simon and Schuster Hardcover publication from 1984.

It’s a great book. I really enjoyed being able to read when I had the time (span of three weeks) and feel like I’m right on track with the main characters and their “conversations”
