Synopsis:
The movements of the third volume are the culmination of this progression from simple to complex. These movements were used by shamans of ancient Mexico as a vehicle for a journey through different levels of awareness. According to sorcerers' beliefs, the awareness of man can leap across exigeant boundaries of species, and even phyla, and enter into inconceivable worlds, via perception.

Tensegrity is the art of utilizing in a modern setting, magical passes, movements discovered and developed by shamans who lived in Mexico in ancient times. They were called magical passes because through practicing them, those shamans attained mental alertness, physical well-being, and more important yet, the possibility of becoming conscious of the abstract, unknown part of man. They were able, for example, to focus their full consciousness on a vibratory force, which they understood as the binding that holds together each living being as a cohesive unit.
In this videocassette, Energetically Crossing from One Phylum to Another, eight complete magical passes are shown. According to those shamans, by means of these passes, they were capable of transporting their awareness across the lines of our own phylum -- Chordata -- into an entirely different phylum: Arthropoda.
The members of what modern man calls the phylum Arthropoda, like the butterfly, for instance, were believed, by those shamans, to see the world as if through a container of crystalline gelatin. They affirmed that for such creatures, the world consisted of hues, and that each hue had a particular scent.
This journey of consciousness was taken by those shamans as the means to accentuate their general awareness, and the prowess of their senses.
