In the groove, intense creative energy feels effortless. This is “deep laziness.”

that seems like, by design, it can't possibly escape the need for a lama. I suppose I'm just asking about pedagogy really. Can the teaching be adapted to a lama-free context at all? is terma really necessary? is secular innovation permitted/tolerated/desirable?
Do you mean, are the traditional politics and mythology around terma necessary? I think not; those would only be obstructions. Pedagogy is, yes, exactly the question.
We don’t have a workable model. “Free-for-all” won’t work in any field in which there are actually difficult things to be learnt. “Let’s all sit in a circle and share our feelings about organic chemistry” won’t result in anyone learning any organic chemistry. Ditto Vajrayana.
Secular innovation is what I’d like to see (depending maybe on what exactly “secular” is taken to mean). No one has the power to prevent it (in countries with religious freedom laws) so it doesn’t matter what the hierarchy thinks.
It’s worth trying to avoid offending traditionalists, out of respect and for pragmatic reasons; but if they are unreasonable, they’re best ignored I think.
