“In the dream state, the hummingbird’s vision is important, because it enables us to be aware that we
are in a dream — and to be just as aware as we would be in our normal waking state.”

“There were other concepts, too, which are not widely known today, such as enlightenment through the
path of darkness. This consists of transforming yourself into a master of dreams as well as a master
of the obsidian mirror. I will discuss this further in later chapters.”

“The Toltec Creation Story
In order to understand how far consciousness can be developed, we have to go back to what people
believe is mythology, the story of the creation of the Náhuatl lineage. Those who can see beyond
history with the eyes of perception will understand that this story is describing the different worlds, or
dimensions, that exist right next to us.
In the beginning everything was Centeotl, the energy of unity, oneness, also called Amomati or
Itzcuauhtli, the Black Eagle, the pitch-black energy from which everything emanated, as in the Bible,
where light originated from darkness.
In order to fly, or create, the Black Eagle looked at its reflection, metaphorically speaking, thereby
creating subject and object. This initial reflection was called Tezcatlipoca, the smoking mirror. I’m
often asked where it’s located, and I can only reply that it’s in the 13th heaven, far from this world and
at the same time so close, because we are always in it.
The first thing the smoking mirror reflected was the sacred couple, Ometecuhtli and Omecihuatl, Mr
and Mrs Two, lord and lady, the male and female essences, or energies. And this creator couple had
four children, all named Tezcatlipoca, Smoking Mirror, in honour of the first reflection.
These Tezcatlipocas are considered gods by many people, including academics, but in fact they are
essences, forms of energy, that are found in everything. They are expressed in a spiritual way, an
astronomical way and of course a human way too.
Each of the Tezcatlipocas was assigned a cosmic direction:
The north: The Black Tezcatlipoca was assigned this direction. He is the guardian of dreams,
the guardian of ‘the cave’ or the core of each being in the underworld.
The west: The Red Tezcatlipoca, also called Xipe Totec, Lord of Shedding, was assigned this
direction and was given the task of bringing order to the dreams of the Black Tezcatlipoca. He
also drives the forces of change, renewal, life and death.
The south: The Blue Tezcatlipoca, known as Huitzilopochtli, was assigned this direction, which
represents the transformation of the warrior’s will. He guides us through our dreams, helping
us reach our full potential. He is also a prophet, hence the master of foreboding.
The east: The White Tezcatlipoca, Quetzalcóatl, was assigned this direction, the place where
light emerges. He is the archetype of light and knowledge in ancient Mexico.
These four Tezcatlipocas, or forces, brought order to the dream of Centeotl. Their movement, ollin,
gave birth to the Ohmaxal, the Cosmic Cross, which keeps everything in a state of change. And from
this change, this movement, emerged matter, which later became stars, then planets and finally energy
beings and physical beings.”
