THE FOUR STALKING DISPOSITIONS
The Don Juan teachings central and fundamental axis is, without a doubt, the stalking art, which indicates to be ruthless, shrewd, patient and nice. The apprentice must implement these four basic fundamentals with everything and everybody.

In the Anahuac common humans maintained a deep relationship with Earth who they called Tonatzin, "our dear mother". But there were a very large number of devotions which the Spaniards called "gods", but that the anahuacas took as variants of the same reality.
