“Self-importance is our greatest enemy. What weakens us is feeling offended by the deeds and misdeeds of our fellowmen. Our self-importance requires that we spend most of our lives offended by someone.”
Carlos Castaneda (1925-1998)
Peruvian-born anthropologist Castaneda wrote the highly controversial The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui way of Knowledge, and subsequent books, held by some to be a study of sorcery and shamanism and by others to be fiction. His insights into human nature and his affect on the thinking of the hippie generation is harder to dispute. He founded the Tensegrity movement to further teachings he attributed to centuries of Toltec warriors.
