Internal dialogue is what makes us "human beings" and makes the "world" as it is; internal dialogue is what keeps fixed our lace point. But internal dialogue can end in the same way that began, through an act of will, little by little, through much time and effort, and is difficult, as the task children have, except that they create it. The lace point is not random, our ancestors unconsciously selected it, it is a "cultural" phenomenon.

The lace point can relatively easily be moved, but requires knowledge, discipline, determination and using certain techniques. But when we can move it, creates new emanations alignment fumes that result in new insights. Worlds and different realities, that have always been there, but never perceived.

Stopping internal dialogue is beginning to move the lace point; thus the so-called " Don Juan teachings" have nothing to do with magic, sorcery, fantastic arts or hallucinogens. On the contrary, it is about human beings conception and the world as energy, whit a specific goal and end: obtaining total consciousness or total freedom. Their techniques and practices are in the everyday world, in the use, abuse and energy rechanneling.

These techniques and practices require flexibility, courage, responsibility, discipline, sobriety and constancy. And it is the most valuable legacy of one of the most important cultures that have developed in the world. As Don Juan says: "techniques to move the lace point are as different as possible, but the results are always the same". Thus in different times and places, other cultures around the world have created their own paths, but the goal is the same.
