Brett Chitty

Brett Chitty has been profoundly deaf since childhood, and was the only deaf child in a hearing school.

He came across the Three Principles in late 2011. For a while he thought Syd was talking nonsense, but he couldn’t shake it off. In late 2015 he met Keith Blevens and Valda Monroe, and in early 2016 he saw that his hearing loss had never had anything to do with his mental wellbeing, after a whole life of believing the opposite.

In 2015 he first saw what a paradigm is, with no prior knowledge of paradigms, and it took him at least six months to find the words to share it. Reading Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions sped that up, and in time it became the way he teaches today: “Two Ways of Using the Same Mind”. In June 2016 Keith and Valda invited him to help with their online work, and he and Tess Christy built their first website, ThreePrinciplesParadigm.com.

Keith and Valda made sure Brett didn’t “copy them”, and listened to what’s within instead. In 2022 Keith asked him to be his partner in teaching, and they ran four programs together, from The Three Principles from the Beginning in January 2024 to The Properties of a Universal Principle in April 2025. Just before Keith died in February 2026, he asked Brett to carry on helping people see that there is a reality available to them that can help them tremendously. Brett does that now alongside Mattie Blevens, as an equal partner in running The Hidden Cause.

Where to find Brett:

• The programs, on Zoom, taking a close look at Syd’s words together.
• The Mystical Bridge Group, which meets on Mondays.
• Whiteboard teaching: he’s a “structure first” teacher, and draws the understanding out as diagrams.

Brett always says he is not a truthteller: what he can do is point, and the seeing happens within you. In his own words: “I’m profoundly deaf, and I heard. If I can hear, you definitely can!”
