		<description>I wouldn&#039;t give up Anna. There are many lawyers in America who would work pro bono, or for a third, to get the money due you. Science is saying that the language of the brain is symbols and vision logic and operates at a million time the speed of our normal thinking. That means that if we work on something for a year, it has been working on it for a million years, we just block it&#039;s output through our &#039;judgment&#039; and judgmental negative words. Words are perhaps the key to seeing, and determine what we allow in, more powerfully than ideas. They call that belief, but I would say disbelief, but better yet, just a closed mind. If we are open to any idea, it will come to us through our hazy thinking thinking, which is our negative thoughts. 
I wonder if anyone can get that. Burt could use it to realize, we are getting all the signals alright, we just block them and only let in 8 or 10 a second from a million of the signals from our brain stem, for instance.
Einstein said, &quot;The only real valuable thing is intuition.&quot; I don&#039;t know anyone who picked up on that.
The whole brain processes billions of images for matches and mismatches. When I started using my intuition, I saw how my brain worked. When something was wrong I got a slight image. I zoomed to the part or symbol that was wrong in the image. It was an image also, with something wrong in that picture too, which jumped out or was obvious also and it was an image with an error and after the 3rd or 4th level, I saw the false belief I had accepted as a child, corrected it and fixed the bad feeling and wrong information I had all my life, apparently.
Wondering how it figured everything out, I envisioned a grid, like a multiplication table, where you could calculate empty boxes from where the numbers at the top intersected with the numbers on the side. Like, come down from the five on top to line four and you know a 20 goes in there as 4 times 5 is 20. I suspect it uses a 3 dimensional grid or maybe more. It seems to compare everything with everything and add to any box, word or idea that way. Needless to say, that is a spirit of truth or a method of truth beyond what we can now do with computers today or consciously. You can open all the mysteries of the universe one at a time. Actually the awareness has no speed so we don&#039;t have to be limited at all, apparently.
It seems to me that we aren&#039;t limited in abilities, only in failing to look at them, because we are so &#039;smart&#039;. That&#039;s why humility is such a powerful tool also, along with gratitude, compassion, forgiveness and all the usual suspects that we all know of, but don&#039;t use enough to know how to use them. 
Like physics, the results are predictable and spirituality is a science, the last science. I don&#039;t know if most physicists are calling themselves philosophers now or not, but I hear they are.
I sure hope Burt will look into this as, &quot;We have miles to go before we sleep, and miles to go before we sleep.&quot;</description>

		<description>Update to above:
I have out-patient surgery due on the 27th of this month.  If everything turns out alright then I have a plan.  I have been studying this spanish demo dvr from a national school in Utah. When I went for the cat scan I told the admittance office my long range plans. She misunderstood and thought I was already by-linqual and wanted me to go to personel and sign up as an interpetor. She told me they were desperate.  I am not done yet and my spiritual faith in our one Creator and what he has done for me in the past with my books, I will continue to be as active as I possible can be by finding something like this translation position not only with the hospital but with the fire department, police dept. etc.  There is no such word in my vocabulary as, &quot;QUIT&quot;!!!! It all depends on the out come of my surgery. If it is my time then I believe in life after death.  My only problem with death is the dying, that I am afraid of.</description>

		<description>Continued from above.
I opened a school  and for 8 yrs had a very successful business, along with classes, seminars and work shops. I placed my grads in medical offices.  My books were plagerized and politically back balled out of the business due to making waves and fighting back. No attorney would take the case without several thousands of dollars. Then cut backs started with the new governor 2001, I had to close 2 of my 3 schools and held on until 2003, December. At which time I closed for good. My medical program is being sold all over america in every vocational school. At the age of 59 by then the only job I could get was in a factory. this is where I was injured, trying to move a 160 pds across a skid and I only weight 115 pds. But I did not give up I had to almost beg again for another job at Wal-Mart, yes, I said wal-mart who pride their selfs on hiring older people and handy capped. I lasted 5 months and left due to the injuries at the other job.  The personal mgr. told me to get well quick, because I was the best cashier they had.  That made me feel good. I enjoyed that job because I like meeting new people and challenges everyday.  Now I am a disabled person with a very low income and find it hard to even buy  food after paying bills.  Point I am trying to make here is quite simple.  IF YOU HAVE THE SPIRITUAL BELIEF IN YOUR SELF THEN YOU CAN DO ANYTHING. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.</description>

		<description>I have always been intuitive with certain poeple in my family. 1. a sister now deceased 2. my granddaughte starting at the age of 2. Meeting strangers, there have been many times in my life (I am 63) when I intuitively know this person is not a nice person. Paranormal, things have happened to me all my life. The most recent, turning on my pc. in this order 1.screen, 2. speakers, 3. tower.  (i do not have a mike nor a driver downloaded for one) as soon as my admin. section loaded for my page, a female voice immediately came across the speaker saying, &quot;Hi JO,&quot;  no one calls me by that name. It is my first name and was used as a nickname by my family only. Which are all deceased except 1 sister and a half sister both of which are in their 70 and 80&#039;s. I always check things out and never jump to conclusions. I am very grounded first in logic, have been in law enforcement and then insurance/taxes all my life. Not finding an answer I placed 2 separate calls to 2 son&#039;s of mine that are far more computer literate then I am. they both told me &quot;NO WAY COULD THIS HAVE HAPPENED&quot;.  Will it did! How, I do not know it just does happen.  Many things of this nature in my life, just happens. With my background in medical insurance I wrote the very first medical and coding specialist books in the USA</description>

		<description>Wow what an amazing concept...i just wish money wasnt charged...do u have books in stores or somthing because THEN i would absolutly buy somthing.

But what i mainly wanted to ask you is if you could post somthing like a video or a forward message for subscribers in which you tell us what you normally do in routine when u start meditating.

because i feel as if i have to be guided to meditate like i can sit down and close my eyes but i kinda feel stupid....but i dont feel that way when im listening to the mp3s on your lessons its as if im lost or i feel like none of this is working because i dont see real proof im thirteen so i cant reslly improve my economic situation the only proof i have is that i feel the tingly relaxed feeling(which i beleive is chi which im also trying to find a pprogram to develope).

i feel lost as if i dont know what to do the only thing i know to do is to do affirmations over and over but i dont hae anything else to do which i suppose is what makes me feel stupid.i would like your help..this is why i wanted you to tell us your normal meditating routine. i also suppose this is part of the reason i have wanted to develope chi because i will get eventually get physical proof that it is real and im not just waisting time sitting there meditating. like i did an affirmation for a wart i have on my finger and i dont even see any improvment, i ended up having to use that freeze stuff and still dont see any improvment i do feel a little better but my temper still activiates when i play a game and lose over and over it just feel like its working and im surely not paying large sums of money,over the internet,for somthing im not even sure works and in a way i think im  becomeing even less and less beleiveing in.


just feels like im not getting better and better,but i hope you do.

-thanks for reading and please reply :)</description>
