EXPLANATION

This process uses memory, intention, attention, and imagination -- four processes that, working together all at once, seem to account for the entirety of human intelligence.

Of those four, memory is the one most familiar to people, in general. The others commonly remain somewhat vague, to us -- and memory isn't so reliable in people, anyway!

It may seem odd that four functions can account for the entirety of possible experiences, but they do seem to.  The unevenness of their development in people explains a lot about the world.

MEMORY and IMAGINATION
Memory is our sense of anything at all persisting at some level of intensity.  That includes our at-present-moment experience, since our ability to recognize anything in the present moment depends upon memory.  You've got to know something like it in order to recognize it. Our sense of anything and everything is memory; our imagination "fits" our memories to what we are sensing and that's what makes things seem recognizable. I'm not saying experience is based on memory; I'm saying that it is memory -- and the three other functions: imagination, attention, and intention.

Our sense of the solidity or actuality or substantiality or reality of reality is memory -- co-arising with, and filled out, by the three other functions.

Memory forms when we have both attention on something and an intention toward it -- whether conscious and deliberate or automatic.

The Teeth of The Gold Key

Every key has teeth.

The teeth fit and unlock the lock.

When you unlock your invisible limiting conditioning
with the steps of The Gold Key Release,

you experience a Release

that feels like a Transcendent "Kiss"
an actual sensation probably unlike anything
you've experienced, before --
a Kiss of Dissolution into Formlessness
(please tolerate the metaphor).

(NOTE: "an actual sensation" means that you don't just come away thinking that you are supposed to get some result, soon, maybe later; it's that you vividly feel a distinct change in yourself -- immediately --  something unusual, something substantial. You feel more natural and different -- more like yourself.)

As the mind-habits that keep you going round and round
in "the same old same old"

dissolve and dissipate
you come free to think, feel, and move in new ways -- 
spontaneously, more fittingly, naturally.

GUIDELINES 
The words I use in these instructions are intended to point to felt meanings, not to "word definitions".  Each step stimulates our sensibilities.  So, catch the feeling you get as you hear each step -- then rest and await the next step.

At first, some people may not feel much, depending on how deeply they feel life, in general. If you don't get much, the first time, the solution is simple: Repeat the Gold Key Release.  Each pass through is different.

At each step, take whatever comes up without evaluating it for correctness or dredging for more. Whatever comes up, take it, as is.  There's nothing you need to remember.

 
Use the exact wording shown, without paraphrasing (at least not until you are proficient enough to improvise improvements).  (If you want to know why, try paraphrasing and compare.)

 

What follows is a full explanation of how to use The Gold Key Release.  However, the process works without this explanation if you follow the recorded instructions.

 

The following section is for people who require some foreknowledge before trying anything new.  However, the process works without explanation, so consider this an optional preview.

The first part of Gold Key Release takes about four minutes; the second part, about seven minutes.

PREPARATION

• Remember something - - anything - -  and notice what "remembering" feels like.
• Imagine something - - anything - - and notice what "imagining" feels like.

This section is to awaken and sharpen your power of attention.

 

Alternate between remembering and imagining and repeat until you can clearly tell the difference -- and the connection -- between imagining and remembering.

One difference has to do with the degree of density of the experience and with the deliberateness with which you hold it.  

Remembering feels solid; imagining feels ephemeral or likely to disappear if effort isn't maintained. . . . . and the connection? That's for you to find out.


(Here's a little hint about the relationship between imagination and memory: If you imagine something enough times or with enough intensity, the imagining gets remembered. Imagining becomes remembering. Imagining is like "the mouth of experience"; remembering is like the stomach.)

ACTION #1
Identify the item you want to release (unlock).

Your item may be one of those, below, or anything that has substance, to you.
(Choose one and make note of interesting, possible others.) 

 
In the beginning stage of practice, you may choose a specific instance or occasion  (memory you have) in which you experienced one of the items, below.  As you get better, you will become able to deal with the conditions, below, in general, rather than requiring specific memories on which to run a Gold Key Release.

So, select an item that has some intensity, to you.  It's a good practice to choose conditions that keep showing up in your life.

• anything that bothers you
• anger
• sorrow
• fear
• guilt
• shame
• (more ... to be suggested in The Gold Key Release Training)
• Be artful and clever!  Do a thorough Gold Key Release on the feeling you have from reading this entry!

At the very beginning, you may or may not have enough "presence of mind" to catch yourself in persistent patterns. Those are good "items" -- but you've got to catch yourself at them to recognize them.   Don't choose "hypotheticals" or things you've read about.  Choose something actual, in your life.

Rule of thumb: If something bothers you, THAT'S A GOOD ONE!!! 

If there's something you think about, often, that's it. If you're buried in a mood, that's a good one.  If you're in a situation that brings up strong emotions, that's a good one. When you recognize one of those, it must occur to you to do The Gold Key Release.  

In a formal Gold Key Release on-line training, I can provide more, and more interesting, "items".

"Holding the Lock in Your Hand"

Regarding your selected, "work-with" item: (to be read aloud)

State it to yourself two or three times, distinctly.

          |   | Feel, "having it".
          |   | Notice where you feel it, in you. 
          |   | [ the name of your item ]

          |   | Feel the intensity of identifying [ the name of your item ].
          |   | [ the name of your item ]

          |   | Feel  the intensity of its intensity.
          |   | [ the name of your item] 

          |   | Listen.

          |   | Listen. 

          |   | Feel  the shape ... of its intensity.

          |   | [ the name of your item] 
          |   | [ the name of your item] 
 

|   | Think to yourself:
       "Intending [ the name of your item ]

       "Intending [ the name of your item ]

 

       "Intending refusing.
         "Refusing.
 

          |   | "Refusing [ the name of your item ]

          |   | "Refusing [ the name of your item ]               

|   | [ the name of your item ]  [ the name of your item ]

 

|   | It matters. 

|   | [ the name of your item ]

|   | [ the name of your item ] doesn't matter. 

|   | It doesn't matter.

|   | [ the name of your item ]

|   | ... It matters. 

 
|   |  Feel how it mattering involves YOU.

|   |  Feel how it mattering involves others.

 

Unlocking the Lock: 

| ! | Think to yourself and feel: "It's true. It's true."

| ! | Think to yourself and feel: "It's untrue. It's untrue . . .
        It's untrue."
|  |  "It's true."  

|  |  "It's untrue, it's untrue."  
|  |  "It's true, it's true." 

| ! | Remembering remembering, "It's true. It's true." (pause and feel)

| ! | Remembering, remembering [your item], "It's true." 

| ! | Remembering remembering, "It's untrue.  It's untrue."

| ! | Remembering, remembering [your item], "It's untrue."

| ! | Remembering  [your item], "It's true." 

 

| ! | Remembering  [your item], "It's untrue."

 

|  | Allow how remembering involves imagining.

|  | Stop imagining.|=| 

       Allow it to dissolve, and dissipate.
       Notice:  You are awake.

(|=| The "Transcendent Kiss" feeling occurs. You'll know it when you feel it.  It's the feeling of your mind feeling amorphous -- losing its form, empty)

That completes the first part of Gold Key Release.  Repetition gets more done, until the item is so gone, it doesn't affect you, anymore.

The Transcendent Kiss feeling may occur at any point during The Gold Key Release -- or after several passes through.  When it happens, relax and rest.   Prevent nothing, hold on to nothing.

Variations of The Gold Key Release exist to address common issues.  Get training in those after you have become familiar with the basic Gold Key Release and with the feeling of The Transcendent Kiss.
