(Seeing an eye) The formless warrior uses that eye to start dreaming. If you don’t have a form, you dont have to go to sleep to do dreaming. The eye in front of you pulls you every time you want it to. (Ring, 160)
Everything for a woman warrior starts in dreaming. (Ring, 162)
I found my hands in dreams. They were old and ugly and green, but they were mine. So that was the beginning. The rest was easy. (Ring, 162)
In dreaming we pay attention with our belly button; therefore it has to be protected. We need a little warmth or a feeling that something is pressing the belly button in order to hold the images in our dreams. (Ring, 163)
The next thing the nagaul wanted me to do was try and find houses and buildings in my dreams and look at them, trying not to dissolve the images…we have to struggle not to look but merely to glance and yet hold the image. (Ring, 163)
…The art of the stalker, that was the nagual’s prediliction and the Generos are his true children at that. We, on the other hand, are dreamers. Your double is dreaming. (Ring, 224)
The art of dreaming is the art of attention. (Ring,, 274)
Those dreams are our best, because our attention is complete.
…after going to the same dream over and over, we begin to feel the lines of the world. (Ring, 277)
The attention under the table is the key to everything sorcerers do. In order to reach that attention the natural and Generous taught us dreaming. (Ring, 293)
In order to teach us how to do dreaming, the natural taught us gazing…dreamers have to be gazers before they can trap their second attention. (Ring, 294)
Dreamers must gaze in order to do dreaming and then they must look of their dreams in gazing. They gaze at trees and clouds until they match their dreaming. (Ring, 308)
