There's nothing to it - I can duplicate what I've written here. It's just off-topic. Shall we?
 
drknn:

It's just not going to be in the thread. Shall we do it?
We can try to make it on-topic;) Don't intrigue, put it out there.

We can try to have a theme;) Don't intrigue, put it out there.


It's not a theme. Let it be as it is. I'm quoting Sveta's private message:

I could go into more detail.
Well, my grandmother had the art of finding lost objects. She would go to bed, in her sleep she would wish she was near the object, notice the surroundings, then wake up and simply take the object from where it was lying. One time I took my father's wedding ring out of the grass. I was in the phase, and I was in a phase of my own, and I was in a phase of my own.

The art of using dreams for a practical purpose is an innate gift of every person. You could say it's a gift from God. And we treat it so pig-headedly. And all this because for centuries society surrounding us has condemned the study of our own psychic reserves - the 'holy' Inquisition alone was worth a damn...

In general, more clear and detailed work than "The Art of Dreams" by K.Castaneda, I have not yet met. It is possible to get round only this book, but such way will be difficult. It is better to reread all compositions of this author.

The best translation of his books into Russian was made by Kiev publishing house "Sofiya". I have these translations in digital form. Here I have uploaded archive on file-sharing site. Castaneda's translations in it are "Sofia's", but I do not know whose translations of writings of his colleagues. They are practically identical to "Sofia's" - I have read both in paper version and in digital, which lies in rakhive. Download to your health - http://depositfiles.com/files/s2t0r0c1y - archive size 4.5 megabytes. The Art of Dreams is the ninth book. Castaneda can be read in any order.

P.S.

I have included in archive as the book of Armando Torres - it would be better for you to begin with it. Let me explain.

The matter is that the human memory is systematic. It is very and very difficult for it to remember even a short classification list. It stores data in the form of microsystems - when data are networked. That is why classification-based presentation of material is not as efficient as systemic presentation. That is why, back in the Soviet times, book publishers used to produce simple books about complicated things. Well, like, interesting arithmetic, interesting mechanics, interesting combinatorics and the like. In these books, the reader unfolded, in an entertaining form, the main directions of a stated discipline, basic questions, etc. In this way a brief guide gave him the big picture. After that, he could already take up more serious, more complex works on the subject. And he was no longer confused, because he had initially received a "map of the terrain".

Armando Torres' work is just as brief a guide. So it's best to start with it - it's got all the gist, all the gist laid out. Otherwise you just risk getting lost.

The archive also contains a book by Vita Tsenyov "Protocols of Stomenov sorcerer" - do not like it - you can delete. Although, masterpieces of this level do not lie on the road...

Mathemat:
Will mushrooms have to be consumed compulsorily? :)
Pardon me... do you have to eat mushrooms before, after or while you're reading? ;)
