Read an excerpt from The Art of Dreaming by Carlos Castaneda this weekend on a self enforced mini retreat out of the city. “I am saying that this is first a world of energy; then it’s a world of objects. If we don’t start with the premise that it is a world of energy, we’ll never be able to perceive energy directly. We’ll always be stopped by the physical certainty of what you’ve just pointed out: the hardness of objects “ ✨
