Dr. Terry A. Gordon: The Wounded Healer

So I started to share with him my story about Wayne Dyer. I looked at this guy and he had this anger and the smoke coming out of his nostrils and ears and I decided for myself “this guy is not going to listen to me and so I even won’t waste my time”. So I left his room and I’m walking down the hall and I suddenly realized how judgmental I had just been. I decided to turn around and I walked back to his room and sat on his bed and started talking to him about my spiritual awakening and how Wayne Dyer helped me with that. He looked up at me and he said: “What the hell you’re talking about this Wayne Dyer dude?” I said “I just wanted to share this because he helped me”. Next to him on the bed was this old, beaten up leather knapsack and he opened it up and showed me two books by Wayne Dyer.

This guy taught me a very important lesson. First of all, don’t be judgmental, but more importantly, everybody is hungry for this. Everyone, and especially in today’s world, where there is darkness. Everybody’s searching, even the people that are creating the darkness, I believe are searching.

Dr. Terry A. Gordon: What is real magic? [Terry smiles now] My wife had a dream which she shared with me the same morning that I opened up the email about Magic Moreno and I think life is magical if you allow it to be. So many of us become so embedded in where we are and what we’re doing, but if you open your mind to the possibilities, to miracles occurring, they’re everywhere! It’s just magically marvelous, they’re everywhere. There’s a book called “A Course in Miracles” and it says: “Miracles are natural. When they do not occur something has gone terribly wrong”. I was a scientist – you’ve got to prove something to me first and then I was going to believe it. But one day, something extraordinary happened to me and it was the first magical thing that ever happened to me.
