AVERAGE MAN PREFERS TO AVOID HIS CHALLENGES RATHER THAN FACE THEM AND, AS A RESULT, IS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR ESCAPISMS. BUT THE REAL CULPRIT THAT MAKES OF MAN SUCH A COWARD IS HIS REASON, WHICH WOULD RATHER FAIL ON ITS OWN TERMS THAN RELINQUISH ITS CONTROL. MAN'S REASON THEREFORE DRIVES HIM TO SEEK REFUGE IN FAILURE, SO THAT HE CAN SURRENDER ON THE TERMS OF HIS REASON. HOWEVER, THE LUMINOUS BEING OF MAN GUARDS AGAINST THIS, AND THUS IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO FAKE EITHER FAILURE OR TRIUMPH, WHILE PLEADING IGNORANCE OF THE PRETENCE.

The Toltec Teachings as presented by friend of humanity, Light Bringer and nagal Theun Mares. The Toltec teachings are the divine birthright of humanity, and therefore do not belong to any one man, woman, sect, religion or philosophy, for these teachings are founded, not within any one particular school of thought, but within the experiential knowledge gained by living a life that has both meaning and purpose.
