Carlos Castaneda’s Tensegrity

Journeys into the Second Attention:
A Tour of Sites in Mexico

May 16, 17, 18, & 19, 2011
Following the Mexico City Workshop

        "The senses of man can perform two functions: one is seeing energy at large as it flows in the universe and the other is “interpreting things in this world.”

- don Juan Matus

Many times Carlos Castaneda, Taisha Abelar, Carol Tiggs, and Florinda Donner-Grau took energetically-prepared students, to destinations in Mexico where don Juan had taken them and where the seers of ancient Mexico had practiced the arts of dreaming and stalking – Teotihuacan, Tula, one of several caves, the Anthropology Museum and surrounding Alameda district.
        And each time the four students of don Juan asked their students, “What do you sense and see? What energetic resonances do you feel? What new perceptions do you have?” encouraging a shift of the assemblage point, a change of perception for the student, enticed by the months or years of preparation – magical passes, Tensegrity workshops, recapitulating and dreaming their lives.
        Each student attending these journeys into what don Juan called heightened awareness, or the Second Attention, must speak for themselves as to their unique sights seen, and messages received, but a single point can be made – that time spent sharing some of the symbolic representations of this lineage’s concentrated moments of awe, left them feeling that timeless awe themselves.

                Following this vein of energy, Cleargreen is happy to announce, a tour in Mexico, to these very same sites, after the Mexico City Tensegrity workshop in 2011!
        Honoring those practitioners who collectively dreamt this event forward for several years, Cleargreen opened last year’s Tour up to energetically-prepared Mexican and Russian practitioners.
        Now for 2011, this Tour is being opened to energetically-prepared German and English-speaking practitioners – those who have attended at least two Cleargreen workshops in the last two years (2009 through 2011, excluding Mexico City 2011). Other language-defined groups – i.e. 2012 Italian; etc. – will be accommodated upon request.
        Each day of this tour, the practitioner will wake up to a gathering of specific magical passes and selected lectures and stories about the destination that lies ahead, be escorted for a full tour at the site, and return each evening to another gathering of shared dreaming experiences and clearing magical passes preparing them for the next day.
        Your host for each day of this guided tour will be Renata Murez, an apprentice of Carlos Castaneda, Florinda Donner-Grau, Taisha Abelar and Carol Tiggs.

Pre-registration is required and space is limited.

Tensegrity is the modern practice of the warrior-traveler’s path with heart which don Juan Matus taught his four students: Carlos Castaneda, Florinda Donner-Grau, Taisha Abelar and Carol Tiggs. The word ‘tensegrity’ was coined by an architect, scientist, engineer, global thinker and dreamer whom Carlos Castaneda admired: R. Buckminster Fuller. Fuller described tensegrity as a process of tensional integrity—the inherent interdependence of structures such as cells, bodies, and solar systems which are held together by a continuous web of tension (such as gravity) holding together discontinuous islands of compression (such as the sun, planets and moons in the solar system).
    As a modern practice of shamanism, Tensegrity means adapting to our own energy, the energy of sun and stars, the air, water, the land, and of its inhabitants in a way that supports the interdependent integrity of the community that we are, as individual and collective beings. The tools that can help us to do this include the ancient energy-enhancing movements and breaths known as magical passes, as well as tracking and dreaming exercises, all of which we will do in this workshop.
    Tracking exercises are: guided self-examination exercises practiced individually and with a peer witness, which allow one to track not only our physical patterns, but also our related mental and emotional patterns and their consequential behaviors and judgments, which we inherited from our lineage and cultures.
    We can direct the energy and awareness gained from this review to access what don Juan Matus called freedom of perception—the freedom to move past any limiting interpretations of our lineage, upbringing and culture to perceive energy directly, and to dream true interdependence—new possibilities of working with others and with the earth–wherever we are, possibilities which spring from an open heart, from bringing one’s best to the interchange.
