Hello Friends,

I am happy to share that I’m almost fin­ished with my next mon­tage. I would reveal it on my blog early next week. Don’t for­get to check it out! In the mean time, enjoy this weeks edi­tion of “Dear Burt”.

Here are the questions:

Dear Burt, could you answer this ques­tion for me: which of your meth­ods would you rec­om­mend to increase con­fi­dence – espe­cially in social sit­u­a­tions. Thanks.

– Leila

Dear Burt, I was hav­ing suc­cess solv­ing lit­tle prob­lems using the Q-Jumping tech­nique. Things like locat­ing lost items etc. It Really Works! For the past sev­eral weeks I have not been able to get any­where with it as I fall asleep every time just before the Jump. I have tried dif­fer­ent times of day, same result. I just can’t stay awake long enough. Is this because I am get­ting bet­ter at total relax­ation? Per­haps I should stop count­ing backwards…Any Sug­ges­tions? Thank You.

– Trevor

Dear Burt, You are awe­some! I can­not wait until I can pur­chase your Quan­tum Jump­ing pro­gram. I have a ques­tion for you-that I hope you will help me with. My mother hung her­self 34 years ago when I was 19, and I was the one to find her, and even to this day, after all the self-help books, cds, etc. I still have the image of her hang­ing there pop into my head quite unex­pect­edly, and it’s like liv­ing it all over again. What can I do to resolve this? I really need to be free of this. Thank you so much for all you do for us.

–Amy

Burt, I’ve been to a few of your sem­i­nars over the years and there were two demon­stra­tions that really caught my atten­tion. One was when you had some atten­dees bring in their bro­ken watches and you piled them up on a table and yelled “work” and more than half of them started work­ing. The sec­ond was a demon­stra­tion where you called a vol­un­teer to the front of the room. You stood behind her and reached into the air as if you were grab­bing her but you never touched her and pulled her back. Though you never made phys­i­cal con­tact with her she started to fall back­ward. As an E-NLP stu­dent of yours, can you describe a model that you used to do this. Inter­nal thought, body pos­ture, etc. These are the demon­stra­tions that really fas­ci­nate me because there is an actual objec­tive effect to be observed. Thanks.

– Saul

Hi Burt, my ques­tion is — Do you believe in a Supreme Being, i.e. God? If so, what is your def­i­n­i­tion of what It is like? From where does your belief orig­i­nate? I am cur­rently writ­ing a the­ory to sci­en­tif­i­cally prove “God” exists and am gath­er­ing as many view­points as pos­si­ble. Thank you.

– Marilyn

Here’s my response

Look­ing for­ward to your com­ments and more ques­tions for the next week. Keep them flow­ing. I’m lov­ing it!

Sin­cerely,

Burt

Hello Friends,

Thank god its Fri­day — Again! I have been long­ing to answer the ques­tions which are pour­ing from all direc­tions. I have made two sep­a­rate videos this time. So with­out any fur­ther delay, go ahead and rel­ish your treat.

Also, don’t for­get to leave your com­ments as well as ques­tions for the com­ing weeks.

Here are the ques­tions that I have answered in video –1:

Dear Burt, How long does it take for a thought or request using the Bagha to man­i­fest? I learned about the Bagha from your Quan­tum Leap pro­gram. I have used it sev­eral times and haven’t yet had suc­cess with it; I’ll keep try­ing though.

– A Q Finley

Hi Burt, I won­der if you per­son­ally have had suc­cess using the Law of Attrac­tion for com­pe­ti­tions and lot­ter­ies like the Win­ning Sage has.

– Craig

Good job Bur! I have the Mind Box and I love it. My ques­tion has to do with Quan­tum Jumping…When we die, on the phys­i­cal plane, do the other “ones” who are us on other planes die also? Thanks Burt. Qun­tum Jump­ing is ssooooooo much fun and so inter­est­ing. I am excited to meet other “Bette”s..

– Aloha mia’ Bette

Here is my response:

Here are the ques­tions that I have answered in video –2:

I have just fin­ished read­ing and lis­ten­ing to your Mind Box Series — Inter­est­ing stuff. It appears that your med­i­ta­tion series — resem­ble hypnosis/self hyp­no­sis quit a bit. I was under the impres­sion that Meditation’s goal was to still the mind for advance­ment. I’ve not been able to be a con­sis­tent prac­ti­tioner of med­i­ta­tion. Some­how I think that the rea­son that I end up mak­ing only slight progress is that deep inside I may be afraid or unwill­ing to suc­ceed. Because if I do suc­ceed , then I have to face the fact that I have been hold­ing myself back and I’m the only one to blame. How can I get past that fear of being suc­cess­ful? Keep up the good work.

– Renald

Hi Burt, Thank you for tak­ing time & trou­ble to answer a nag­ging ques­tion that is trou­bling me. I am into pos­i­tive think­ing & man­i­fes­ta­tions for some time now. When­ever I wish to man­i­fest money, I usu­ally give a dead­line like a week or a month with the date spec­i­fied. By doing this, I man­i­fested a few times the exact amount of money that I wanted just before the dead­line I men­tioned.
My ques­tion is “why do many man­i­fes­ta­tion gurus insist that the both the sub-conscious & the uni­verse only knows & under­stands the present time & not the future”? What is the proper method of man­i­fest­ing — is it bet­ter to give a date to work with & strongly expect the pos­i­tive out­come man­i­fested?

– Rita

Hi, Burt! Is it pos­si­ble for a quad­ri­plegic who can’t speak nor con­trol his breath­ing to prac­tice mind­box (i.e. silva method) lessons? I prac­tise visu­al­iza­tion and fol­low your sug­gested prici­ples, even do pho­tog­ra­phy (thanks for the inspi­ra­tion!), but when it comes that part ‘inhale deeply-hold your breath count­ing to *n*-exhale slowly’, I get uncer­tain a bit!… a lady (an expe­ri­enced med­i­ta­tor) once told me that the only real pre­req­ui­site for med­i­ta­tion is *mind*! I stick to it, yet I’d like to hear your con­fir­ma­ton (or nega­tion) of the issue! Thanks for the oppor­tu­nity to post this ques­tion!

– Dras

Dear Burt, We met about 10 years ago when my son took your Silva Method for kids pro­gram in Stu­dio City, CA. At that time I bought your full tape col­lec­tion and have lis­tened to your tapes many times (some are now ripped) and recently “found” you again. I’ve worked with your e-NLP pro­gram and LOVE IT. Gave the best speech of my career by using your method of “step­ping into” some I con­sider suc­cess­ful. Mind Box is next for me. And you look GREAT on your new video series! Con­grats! Here’s my ques­tion — I’ve been in busi­ness for over seven years and in this econ­omy my com­pany, which was once very suc­cess­ful, is no longer sus­tain­able. I’ve put every ounce of my energy and over time ALL of our fam­ily funds into grow­ing this busi­ness, which I’m now clos­ing. What are the best tech­niques to regain my finan­cial abun­dance as quickly as pos­si­ble? Thank you.

– Dianne

Here is my response:

Don’t for­get to voice your opin­ion below =)

Eter­nally yours,

Burt

Well look what I found!

The per­sonal devel­op­ment web­site Evo­lu­tion Ezine recently gave my Quan­tum Jump­ing course a huge thumbs up in their review.

Here’s an excerpt:

“Today I decided to take a Quan­tum Jump and visit a coun­ter­part who feels really com­fort­able with receiv­ing money. I set­tled into alpha and fol­low­ing all the instruc­tions in the Quan­tum Jump­ing I stepped into an alter­nate real­ity where I allowed unlim­ited $$$ to flow into my life. Once again I met a very happy suc­cess­ful ver­sion of me. She greeted me with a smile, and open and allowed me to step into her vibra­tion so that I could get a sense of what it feels like to have such a won­der­ful rela­tion­ship with abun­dance. I could phys­i­cally feel the shift — and when I stepped away from her I was able to hold onto the sense of it. The next day, yes­ter­day, I received a check in the mail for $100.00, and this morn­ing I needed to open a new pay­pal account to accept another unex­pected $100.00. This feels really good — and I plan on vis­it­ing this coun­ter­part again and again.”

It’s so sat­is­fy­ing to see Quan­tum Jump­ing spread­ing across the Internet–and if you’re a Quan­tum Jump­ing user, I’ve got YOU to thank for that too.

Look­ing for­ward to hear more from you guys.

Burt

Dear Friends,
I am hum­bled by the enor­mous response that “Dear Burt” has gen­er­ated and I was so happy to read your questions.

In this very first edi­tion of “Dear Burt”, I have tried answer­ing the ques­tions which I thought many peo­ple would be able to relate to. If I didn’t answer your ques­tion, then look for­ward to it in the com­ing weeks.

Here are the ques­tions I had the priv­i­lege of answer­ing this week:

I seem to have a chal­lenge in ask­ing the right ques­tions. Can you give more details on ask­ing questions?

– Jan­ice

How to iden­tify who is the authen­tic Guru among the large and grow­ing num­ber of pro­fes­sion­als pos­ing on the inter­net as   spe­cial­ists in Life Enlightenment?

– Vishal

I’m won­der­ing if you could com­ment on the Silva three scenes tech­nique in light of NLP. In NLP, and cer­tainly in my case, the future is to the right and the past is to the left. In the three scenes tech­nique, it is taught the the future is to the left and that is why we pro­gram it towards the left. This is con­fus­ing to me and I’m won­der­ing if you could clear this up since you are expe­ri­enced with both NLP and Silva.

– Mark

I am a new stu­dent and work­ing hard to hard­wire Mind­Box. It is con­cep­tu­ally deli­cious and no doubt if I could apply it effi­ciently I would really feel reborn as a god in that my every desire could finally come man­i­fest? I feel that I have already had some suc­cess due to these tech­niques. Build­ing one suc­cess upon another would gen­er­ate enor­mous con­fi­dence and excite­ment. My wife and I have spent a num­ber of years study­ing astrol­ogy and Feng Shui, i.e the ener­get­ics of the local uni­verse as they may apply and impact each of our per­sonal lives. In other words, these mag­nan­i­mous mag­netic forces are push­ing us around? Are you say­ing that the nature of our rela­tion­ship with these forces will be some­how trans­formed? Are you say­ing that we can tran­scend them? For exam­ple: become wealthy when our karmic map indi­cates poverty, find true love when we have Pluto in the 7th house, or even through will trans­form our body chem­istry so that the pan­creas doesn’t pro­duce excess insulin?

Hi Burt! I would like you to put your hand on your site so I can touch it to help heal myself with your help. You did that once but when I had the time to do it, it was gone. Thank you.

– Josephine

Here is my video response:

Please leave the com­ments as well as your ques­tions for the next week below.

Sin­cerely,

Burt

Hello friends,

I wanted to take this moment to intro­duce a new weekly col­umn I will be fea­tur­ing every Fri­day right here on my blog.

I call it “Dear Burt.”

Watch my video below where I explain the idea behind this new concept:

Over the com­ing weeks I want to help those of you who have some burn­ing ques­tions you would like answered. Whether it’s a ques­tion regard­ing a pro­gram of mine, a prob­lem you may have with one of my med­i­ta­tion tech­niques, or if you are just look­ing for some good old fash­ion advice, I would like to help.

Every week, I will take a peak at the ques­tions you leave below this post and choose one or a few that I would like to address. Then, every Fri­day, I will post a YouTube video with my response. You can expect them to be very can­did and straight from the heart.

I will do my best to answer everyone’s ques­tion but please be patient if I don’t answer yours straight away.

I am doing this as my way of say­ing “Thanks” for being such loyal fol­low­ers of my teach­ings and for always lend­ing your help­ful advice and feed­back through my blog.

So, thank you!

Post your ques­tions below and make sure to check back Fri­day for my video response!

Sin­cerely,

Burt

Hello friends,

Since so many of you seemed to enjoy my Howth Har­bor post last week where I revealed my secret tech­nique to cre­at­ing my one-of-a-kind mon­tages, I thought you might also enjoy see­ing my newest creation.

Last Sat­ur­day I went to San Diego for the day and spent some time strolling around the har­bor look­ing for an eye-catching sub­ject to pho­to­graph. That’s when I spot­ted this old shack of a build­ing jut­ting out from the rocky shore. I knew imme­di­ately it would make a great mon­tage so I started snap­ping and took a total of 140 pic­tures of the shack and sur­round­ing ocean and rocks.

When I got home on Sun­day I devel­oped the pho­tos and put the mon­tage together. It took quite some time to do but once I started I just couldn’t stop!

Here is what the photo mon­tage looked like before I began painting:

I spent the entire day paint­ing to fin­ish it up. This is the first photo mon­tage I have done in ages. Recently, I have been paint­ing over old ones that I put together years ago (as was the case with Howth Har­bor) but this one I started and fin­ished all within the same week­end!

I call this mas­ter­piece “Sailor’s Rest” and I have to admit… I am quite fond of it

What do you think?

I hope you enjoy it! I would love to hear your thoughts.

Sin­cerely,

Burt

Here is my spe­cial birth­day mes­sage to Alexandra.

Dear Alexan­dra,

None of this would have been pos­si­ble with­out you.

You’ve been amaz­ing to work with, and more impor­tantly a true friend over the year plus we’ve known each other.

We started out with noth­ing but a dream, and look where it’s taken us.

The Amer­i­can Monk is as much your achieve­ment as it is mine. To say I appre­ci­ate all the effort and ded­i­ca­tion you’ve put into this dream would be an understatement.

I see it as much more than just set­ting up web­sites and tele­sem­i­nars, send­ing emails and help­ing out our mem­bers — I see you as a part­ner in our quest for mak­ing the world a bet­ter, more enlight­ened place.

Your patience, resource­ful­ness and kind­ness con­tinue to inspire me to reach greater heights, and I can only hope that I’ve been able to do the same for you.

Remem­ber that week­end we spent indi­vid­u­ally wrap­ping up copies of the Mind­Box just so we could get them out to our mem­bers on time? Things were just a lit­tle more chaotic back then, but you stood by me with­out a sin­gle complaint.

I could go on and on here, but I think you get the idea. You’ve been a true bless­ing to me, and I can’t wait to see what else the future holds for us.

Happy Birth­day!

Burt

P.S. Don’t worry, I’m not going to tell any­one how young you’re turn­ing

The above let­ter is my birth­day mes­sage for my assis­tant Alexan­dra. If you’re sub­scribed to my mail­ing list, you’ll be famil­iar with her through her emails to you. I’d like to make this one really spe­cial for her, so I’d really appre­ci­ate if you could send her a quick birth­day mes­sage in the com­ments sec­tion below.

I can’t wait to see the look on her face when she receives all your won­der­ful wishes. Lets try to blow past our record of 908 comments!

Sin­cerely,

Burt
