Secret Spiritual Message THANK YOU TERRY! I’ve been telling this to my friends and clients for years! Most don’t want to hear it, but prefer to hear what they might consider a quick fix. Many don’t want to take personal responsibility for their own spiritual welfare. I’m so very happy to hear someone in the “public eye” speak the truth rather than charge people and then give them basically useless information. I’m glad that a known, well respected person such as yourself, has the courage to speak the truth which can actually help people find their true spiritual connection. Thank You again!
Divine Blessings, mm 😀

The “secret” Yes! Perhaps I touch it as it is now and then and I certainly feel the pull into being what is as most authentic. Dissociation is an imposter, a trap, along the way for me. Thanks Terry. Very well put.
“Okay I’m going to give you the secret technique now. The formula. The method. The way to do it. Give up all methods, techniques, and ways to do it.”
I’m almost totally in agreement with “Give up all methods, techniques and ways to do it.” However, I have discovered that there is one way that always works.
In a word, the way is to SURRENDER…What I mean by surrender is whenever I become aware that I’m caught in my thoughts, emotions or body sensations, I can consciously choose to allow them to be there without indulging them, without resisting them, and without following them. Just letting them appear and disappear. Just letting them pass through. Just letting them be.
And what is always REVEALED is This Spaciousness/Awareness/Presence that is always Here – “my” True Self…
So when you say “Give up all methods, techniques and ways…” that is SURRENDER. And my experience is that “a way that works every time” is SURRENDER = allow = let them be = open to = whatever word or phrase is surrender for someone that REVEALS their True Self.
If you’re interested, I go into a little more detail in the meditation/practice below.
Thank you for putting out your YouTube and I appreciate all that you do for “Beyond Awakening – The Future of Spiritual Practice.”
Whenever and wherever you feel stressed STOP and please take some time for yourself!!
(Get off the hamster wheel for even 10-15 seconds – more if you like.)
(The world will NOT fall to pieces!! Really!! Stopping is a crucial first step)
In this moment, take a deep breath or two…
Effortlessly and consciously ALLOW all thoughts and feelings to appear and disappear.
* without indulging or dwelling on them
* without resisting or trying to get rid of them
* without following them…
Let the positive AND negative thoughts and feelings just come and go…
Let them be… Let them just pass through…
No effort…
If you happen to have a racing mind, consciously let it race.
Say something like “Okay go ahead – do your thing.”
(Sometimes, it’s like the mind has a mind of its own.)
Just as clouds appear, pass through the sky and disappear,
so it is that thoughts appear, pass through This Spacious Awareness and disappear…
What is revealed is a part of us that is Watching/Witnessing the thoughts and feelings coming and going. That part is This Spacious Awareness…
Rest in This Spacious/Nothingness for 10-15 seconds or more if you like.
This is your True Self…
Simply and effortlessly let the next thought come and go in
This Spaciousness – without following it… Let it be…
Who you really Are is This Unconditional Peace, Unconditional Freedom, and
Unconditional Love…
