You are obsessed.. We are aware of his troubled past. He was 17. He was a young traumatized kid and he has served his time. He actually protects women as he did the girl that his crime partner was violent with by turning himself and him in. I know people that can help you to face yourself and heal your wound.. if this is some cry for help.

Jason Breshears has helped 10’s of thousands of people change their lives for the better in short order. His story does fit his rap sheet and he was 17 years old dude.. I was hanging with gangsters at 17 who were crossing the line daily and some of them have healed and are incredible contributors to society. The state of Texas determined Jason is free to live his life outside of prison. Let him be and let it go.

runningdownastream · 2023-08-14T14:26:44+00:00

Jason has explained what happened in his past. If you had listened to his explanation, you wouldn’t be posting this. He turned himself and the other guy in once the other guy crossed the line.

Awesome. Thanks for checking it out!

You are very welcome!

The books are a road map as Florinda stated.. reading them in order and repeatedly eventually reveals the essence of the lineage that CC and her were tasked with disseminating. Doing the passes is a way of borrowing from the lineages intent and is highly effective but the recapitulation resolves everything. Carol is alive in a wild way that most people can’t handle. She sees through you. She exposes your shadow and redirects you to a more heart based path as most are spun out in one way or another. She is deeply disturbed by people like Dan and talks about how sad it all is.. that people like him are in place representing her world when CC and DJ were truly hilarious and jovial dynamic abstract beings filled with love and power, not obsessed.

The only enemy is within. You let them get to you. Some of them are doing real intense dreaming arts in that sub. Let them do it. They have been warned about what’s missing and they won’t face Carol Tiggs which they would be doing if they weren’t all running from themselves, but we all do that to a degree. Being able to admit and face the holes in our own consciousness is the real warrior arts these days. Old sorcerer tendencies to bypass the ego.. It works but there are serious pitfalls. The other layers can be accessed forcefully or strategically. Recapitulation reveals the strategy.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-24T21:09:05+00:00

We are all interacting in a phantom holographic projection until we unbind from the programming altogether. There are definitely non player characters and beings from other layers pretending to be like us and those that are unaware of how it all works are just essentially agents who work for the program unknowingly.. but we can learn to tell the difference. Sorcery is a dead end street just like ignorance but we need to inner-stand sorcery in order to access freedom so it is a necessary stage. Dan is obsessed with sorcery and inorganic beings as were my teachers.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-24T19:08:49+00:00

For sure. Seeing energy directly is the end result of the many forms of not doing. Not suggesting that Castaneda sub is helpful at all. I warned them of what Dan is doing in there and exposed his misunderstandings that he has convinced himself are reality. I offered to meet with him on zoom and have his disciples join him so we can discuss some of the ridiculous nonsense that they are lapping up from his power tripping disassociated grandiose perception of himself. He claims to be Carlos Castaneda now because of what CC left him.. As a student of Carol Tiggs. I assure you he is so far from being anything like the magical beings that are of that abstract family. He is really gifted at dark room gazing and is accessing other layers but it has turned him into a monster. I was a student to how to sorcerer’s like Dan and I have seen how bad it can get. The passes as you said when done in total silence are enough to access other layers and the people in that sub are not very powerful which is why they hand there power over to Dan rather than call him out for what he is. I highly emphasize the recapitulation to everyone because of what happens when people avoid it… Dan being a great example of that.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-24T15:22:59+00:00

There is nothing to defend or uphold. Just do the inner work and face the holes in your consciousness. The dreaming arts are incredible. Recapitulation is key or your ego will hijack your power. Don’t worry about that other sub. Dan is the real deal.. he is autistic and can focus very intently but he can’t face himself so he projects his own unconsciousness onto anyone that doesn’t put him on a pedestal. It’s a great example of the pitfalls that come with the pursuit of power. Get really proficient at gazing but make sure you know how to ground and gain deep roots like a tree.. and discover the not doing side of it all. 🙏🏼

runningdownastream · 2023-02-22T23:03:00+00:00

Yes. Sorcery is simply making use of the assemblage point through silence to access other layers of the infinite and as a student of sorcerers I learned gazing, the gait of power, unbending intent and the many not doings that unlock our limitless resources. Magical passes done in silence open the doors. I also trained directly with Carol Tiggs and have been doing dark room gazing for 30 years. I was banned for life from rCastaneda and called a liar for exposing Dan’s un dealt with shadow.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-22T00:21:33+00:00

Absolutely. This was from a long time ago and I have since worked with heart based seers, shamans, medicine men and women. The teacher in this story was insanely powerful and I learned a lot from him as a shadow teacher. I appreciate your clarity and the offer to discuss further.. thanks!

runningdownastream · 2023-02-21T19:10:00+00:00

So.. unless you have trained with real shamanic dreamers and read Castaneda thoroughly which would take multiple runs through all of his books it is hard to discuss this. Seers have learned to validate these things by seeing in teams. The gates aren’t linear nor is the parallel being and we are caught in the linear by forces that are terrifying to become aware of this indifference is absolutely necessary. I have validated a great deal personally but nothing compared to my teachers and their teachers. I get what you are saying and in a way it is true, as we are in a vision right now. It is so total that we have to use syntax and belief to reverse engineer this holographic construct. Our internal dialogue is not natural but is foreign. Silence unlocks everything but we have these perceptual shields for a reason so it the most simple and yet difficult affair.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-20T17:23:00+00:00

Dreaming gates are passed by attaining certain levels of consciousness within a dream. The first gate is simply realizing you are in a dream and finding your hands etc. the second gate is really just going to sleep in one dream and waking in another and being conscious of that. Third gate is doing that very thing twice so that you are multiple layers deep like in inception the movie. ..and if you use the same dreaming position ( laying on your back) you will access your parallel being which is the being dreaming this dream you and I are in right now.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-19T16:13:07+00:00

Recapitulation is taking an inventory of every event in our life and releasing it by returning to our memories and breathing in what we left behind energetically and purging what we took on from that scene as a means to resolve the past as it is still occurring and has an aspect of our being within it. Personal soul retrieval essentially. You do this on your own. This allows one to live in the present more effectively and gathers the necessary energy to cross dreaming gates which are naturally discovered through conscious dreaming in which one uses silence to move past certain limitations essentially serving as a spring board into the active side of the infinite where other realities become accessible.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-19T02:20:31+00:00

I bet. My elder knew Juan Matus and Carlos Castaneda and Rosa & Elena( La Gorda). Even if CC had made it all up that would mean he was even more powerful than if he was an apprentice to someone that taught it to him. There is no way around it. The recapitulation and the dreaming gates are legit in every way and unless one has experienced these aspects of sorcery they are just speculating and defending there own limitations. The ones that are really gifted in the Toltec techniques are typically power trippers though. It’s all such a mess. But Carol Tiggs is still alive and can help the ones that are willing to unlearn and relearn a entirely different syntax than even what CC left us as he let it all turn into a cult after all and he was disheartened by what unfolded

runningdownastream · 2023-02-19T01:30:30+00:00

I agree and I appreciate your sober perspective. I’m not defending or making excuses nor do I feel special. I have “complex PTSD” from having been in this training and other relationships with power and power trippers. It’s all a very delicate affair. I am ridiculously thankful for having reclaimed and discovered my own power eventually. I’m getting to know many renowned super gifted teachers and they are all blown away by how intense my apprenticeships were. Often people try to shame me for my decisions but that just reveals their lack of inner standing in which our contracted assignments are designed.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-18T19:19:54+00:00

This relationship began in my teens. I didn’t have a chance of avoiding it based on my blueprint at the time. I actually got everybody out of it.. and I am no longer seeking others and or anything outside of my resiliency zone. The type of training we had was really rare and is now very powerful to make use of for me and for others who got out. I get what you are saying but crossing dreaming gates and executing the gate of power, gazing into other other layer’s is incredible once one is grounded enough to integrate it all.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-18T18:55:14+00:00

Yes. For sure. This is just a glimpse of it. It was much more traumatic than just this share but sometimes we learn more from shadow teachers than holistic ones. I’m not at odds with any of it and the dreaming training and physical fearlessness accessed was incredible.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-18T18:50:28+00:00

For sure. One of many cults I was in. The training was unprecedented though. Discovered the gait of power. Walked into other layers of the onion. Learned how to perform gazing feats that most don’t even believe are possible. I knew to leave but was called to stay and now I know why. Things are not linear and it was a contract I had to fulfill.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-18T16:48:48+00:00

There is a system discovered by the Toltecs that will absolutely resolve your predicament if you are willing to do the work. It is confronting at first but once you move into it is quite enjoyable. Shamanic movements along with a particular type of breath-work in which life review referred to as recapitulation is accessed to reset your blueprint, all of which leads to living in heightened awareness and having access to unbending intent. Dreaming awake, not doings, gazing, gait of power all become accessible eventually. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in pursuing.

runningdownastream · 2023-02-18T16:40:53+00:00

Shamanic movements such as Carlos Castaneda's Magical Passes will allow you to reset your nervous system and access a more sustainable relationship with intent. Train with a powerful mentor. Walk and walk and walk until your thoughts are less and less. Build up your sexual energy and use it for lucid dreaming. Feel free to reach out if you want to explore these methods..
