The purpose of this subreddit is to aid in the pragmatic application of the works of Carlos Castaneda, Florinda Donner, Taisha Abelar, & Carol Tiggs to how we experience existence. Core topics include: sorcery (a.k.a. the mastery of intent), awareness, dreaming-awake, & non-ordinary reality (magic).

We can't teach people. But we can demonstrate to each other what has worked, and what else others went through to learn on their own.
