Lizards Eyelids and Cactus Needles

Let's look at this again:

Quote:
Face it... unless the St. Juan chronicles are gospel truth... Carlos made it up.

Furthermore... you can't sew a lizard's eyes closed with anything... leave alone a cactus thorn... if Carlos didn't just make that up... then Juan did.

You know... if I start listing the impossibilities in Castaneda's books... I'd be all day just listing...

I Officially Challenge Corey Donovan to a Debate

feeds@yuku.com (DaveDellano) — Sat, 06 Dec 2003 15:41:16 GMT

Before your cult leader returns and deletes this thread let all know that Corey Donovan's unwillingness to face the truth about himself is a sure sign that he is indeed a cult leader here. The truth he will not face:

You have some sort of mental sickness in which you seem to think that if you suspect something then that something must indeed be a fact. Now you are assuming that I am someone who I am not. You think you are correct because of what? Your psychic impressions? Do tell us...

The onion of authenticity

feeds@yuku.com (emiliolizardo) — Thu, 06 Nov 2003 23:38:55 GMT

We spend a lot of time on this board arguing about the substance of Castaneda's books, for example, trying to identify possible sources and influences. I want to take a moment to example the form of these books, especially the language. After that, we can take a look at the form of his books, and the deeper layers of cultural context and meaning.

(In what follows, I'll follow Richard de Mille's practice of using "Castaneda" to refer to the author and sometimes...

Something has been bothering me for the longest time, but I wasnt able to word it. I still may not be, but heres the attempt:

Carlos Castaneda has been accused of being a liar on this site since its inception. Jeremy Donovan has recently given us a most cogent series of posts summarizing, in excruciating detail, just how the works of Carlos Castaneda can be proven to fail to add up in anyones honest analysis. I fully agree with that assessment.

I am Not very interested in harassment and impolite nonsense.

Sorry Corey I was enjoying Your Website and had a respectful feeling for it.
The heckling has momentarilly changed that opinion..
but some of that is surely just a "negative mechanism" brought up by the situation.
Still.. I am in a hurry and do not have time for the childishness right now.. probably never will.
It does not help make the Shift.

Growing up on an Aegean Island he often heard, and was fascinated, by the Tales of a local inhabitant of the main Town:

And most of all The Fabled Magical Power of the Golden Fleece.
