Returning to the Source
In this third session, Barry Long guides participants into a deeper inquiry into the nature of existence, love, and consciousness. The talk challenges the mind’s reliance on external validation and intellectual concepts, urging a return to inner realization and direct experience. Through explorations of death, time, and a prediction of the eventual rise of fleshly robots as a reflection of our spiritual disconnection, Barry encourages a return to the state of being that can be known through stillness and presence.

EPISODE NOTES
Central to the session is the distinction between human emotional patterns and pure being. Barry highlights how emotions like anger, guilt, and sorrow define the human condition but do not reflect true life. He examines love and relationships, particularly the emotional dynamics between men and women, encouraging a surrender of independence and a fearless embrace of love as a path to inner freedom.
Participants are invited to practice conscious breathing, inner stillness, and perceive the “inner space” where real life unfolds—beyond body, mind, and time. With reflections on intelligence as the essence of being, and the role of perception in awakening, Barry offers a profound look into the journey within. The session ultimately serves as a reminder that spiritual truth cannot be found in concepts or the future, but only in the living now.
