“Power flows to us whenever we need it. It is only the fixation of your assemblage point and your subsequent doings which preclude you from using the power that surrounds us all.”
Théun Mares, Cry of the Eagle: The Toltec Teachings Volume 2

“When one looks at the world directly, the eyes fixate the assemblage point, and no more movement is possible. Under such conditions there can be no fluidity or sobriety. Therefore one should not look at the world directly; that is, one should not stare, but glance around casually and at ease. This is true even if one is using the inner vision to look at one's own inner world.”

“All that is needed in order to move the assemblage point is, firstly, the knowledge that it is possible; and secondly, sufficient personal power with which to do so.”

Carlos Castaneda
“Seeing children's assemblage points constantly fluttering, as if moved by tremors, changing their place with ease, the old sorcerers came to the conclusion that the assemblage points habitual location is not innate but brought about by habituation.

Seeing also that only in adults is it fixed on one spot, they surmised that the specific location of the assemblage point fosters a specific way of perceiving.

Through usage, this specific way of perceiving becomes a system of interpreting sensory data.

Since we are drafted into that system by being born into it, from the moment of our birth we imperatively strive to adjust our perceiving to conform to the demands of this system, a system that rules us for life.

Consequently, the old sorcerers were thoroughly right in believing that the act of countermanding it and perceiving energy directly is what transforms a person into a sorcerer.”
Carlos Castaneda, The Art of Dreaming
