Welcome to the World of Toltec. The Star Wars trilogy starts with the words "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away,"..... Our Toltec story also starts in the distant past but on our own planet before the advent of summer and winter. In H.P. Blavatsky's "Secret Doctrine" she says that the Toltecs were of the Atlantean stream which began to break down about 850,000 years ago, prehistory as we understand it. These beings were at the end of the Dvapara Yuga as humanity descended into the Kali Yuga, and will return as we emerge back into the Dvapara Yuga in its reversal or in-breath back to the Golden age. Many people alive in the present time hold distant memories of the Age of Darkness, and experience the emergence as the balancing of the old karma.

Tradition tells us that the truths held by the Toltecs were dispersed all around the planet until the "Caller" arrived to rekindle its spirit and respark the flame. That "Caller" in all likelihood was Carlos Castaneda, with his many writings and the stories of his journey. Whether this is the case or not, he inspired many students to discover the path, and to find teachers with the memory, and who carried the parts of those truths they were entrusted with. We shall be forever grateful to all those who carried the knowledge and skills through the Aeons to the present time.

Now the time has arrived and we are awakening. The Toltec Challenge is a simple doorway, a very simple doorway to a very profound set of perceptions. For those who dip in and see beyond the obvious there are opportunities to go ever deeper, because Toltec is like the oceans with unexplored depths. As always, I say the first step is into the challenge. Maybe you will want to meet with me on the other side.

For now, imagine a love so profound that you cannot see it at all. Its boundaries so far beyond the limitations of language, that wraps you in its tenderness and keeps you safe as a baby in swaddling clothes. Only such a love will allow you to see when you have gained the maturity to safely handle power. Feel that love and know you are exactly where you need to be....
