In "The Art of Dreaming," Don Juan reflects on the knowledge that ancient magicians possessed, noting that only two skills have endured: the art of dreaming and the art of stalking. He laments the loss of many other magnificent abilities, emphasizing the significance of these two practices in navigating different realities.
Don Juan elaborates on the art of dreaming, which entails the mastery of shifting one's assembly point to explore various realms. Conversely, the art of stalking involves the capacity to stabilize the assembly point at desired locations, allowing a practitioner to interact effectively with different experiences and states of consciousness.
