Carlos Castaneda latin-amerikai származású, amerikai antropológus, akit a mexikói varázslóhagyományról írt könyvei tettek világhírűvé. Castaneda az első könyvek antropológusi nézőpontját elhagyva később a tanulmányozott varázslóhagyomány képviselőjévé vált. Könyveiben egy több ezer éves, a harcosok útjának nevezett saját etikát és teljes világmagyarázatot tartalmazó, komplex és mind az európai, mind a keleti tradícióktól különböző világképet mutatott be. Mivel sosem mutatott be bizonyítékokat arról, hogy adatközlői valóban léteznek, második könyve megjelenésétől kezdve tudományos körökből számtalan kritika érte, amik fikcióként utasították el munkáit.

Carlos Castaneda: Idézetek angolul

“The things that people do cannot under any conditions be more important than the world. And thus a warrior treats the world as an endless mystery and what people do as an endless folly.”

“The seer "sees" that every man is in touch with everything else, not through his hands, but through a bunch of long fibers that shoot out in all directions from the center of his abdomen. Those fibers join a man to his surroundings; they keep his balance; they give him stability.”

“Warriors speak of shamanism as a magical, mysterious bird which has paused in its flight for a moment in order to give man hope and purpose; warriors live under the wind of that bird, which they call the "bird of wisdom," the "bird of freedom."”

“When a man embarks on the warriors' path he becomes aware, in a gradual manner, that ordinary life has been left forever behind. The means of the ordinary world are no longer a buffer for him; and he must adopt a new way of life if he is going to survive.”

“The average man is either victorious or defeated and, depending on that, he becomes a persecutor or a victim. These two conditions are prevalent as long as one does not "see." "Seeing" dispels the illusion of victory, or defeat, or suffering.”

“The eyes of man can perform two functions: one is "seeing" energy at large as it flows in the universe and the other is "looking at things in this world." Neither of these functions is better than the other; however to train the eyes only to look is a shameful and unnecessary loss.”

“Those are the lights on the head of death. Death puts them on like a hat and then shoots off on a gallop, gaining on us, getting closer and closer. Sometimes it turns off its lights. But death never stops.”
