In this excerpt, a conversation occurs between the narrator and don Juan about the ability to perceive inorganic beings. Don Juan asserts that while sorcerers can deliberately engage with these beings, ordinary people also have this capacity, albeit unconsciously. The narrator learns that many lack awareness of a parallel existence, leading to confusion when they contemplate it.

The concept suggests that individuals often indulge in mental distractions, unaware that their imaginations stem from a deeper awareness of an unseen world. This idea challenges the perception of isolation, hinting at the underlying intuition that we are part of something larger, reinforcing the notion that knowledge of such a reality is inherent in all of us.
