Wow, it’s sur­real to see my ques­tion among the others…even though I thought it might be, because I felt bet­ter about the issue soon after even just hav­ing offi­cially sent the ques­tion to you. Thank you Burt! You are a true role model. And of course what you do is use­ful and wor­thy enough!! At the very least, you are here and you lis­ten to us and do your best. I am only one other per­son, but I want to encour­age you as best I can. I hope you expe­ri­ence ful­fill­ing moti­va­tion and con­tinue to spread enlight­en­ment to your soul’s con­tent, if it’s what you want of course, because it’d be greedy to only want you to con­tinue in order to ben­e­fit from your wis­dom and expe­ri­ence. I think it’s a great priv­i­lege to share these expe­ri­ences with you, Burt, I admire you and respect you immensely

Hi Burt
This is the first time I have actu­ally sat and read through the ques­tions and lis­tened to your advise and com­ments.
I enjoyed this tremen­dously, espe­cially the ques­tions posed by Akila, as this is my sit­u­a­tion as well. How­ever, I found a lot of sense in the advise you gave.
and I am putting this into prac­tice.
I also need to go back on all the stuff you have put out there for us and prac­tice.
My prob­lem is that I have become totally over­whelmed with the free­bies and the new peo­ple that I have become involved with and have not taken any­thing seri­ously.
Thank you for all your help and obvi­ously you care.
Bless you Burt

Hi Burt: Your New Video Blog Post is an excel­lent idea.
My ques­tion is “There are days when I can use lit­tle more energy to do things. Could you give a cou­ple of tips on how to that in the short­est time.” Look fwd to your Fri­day blogs.

M.L. Sharma says

Dear Burt,
I have been read­ing about your views and feel happy
that you are try­ing the achieve some­thing spe­cial than ordi­nary human being.
The phys­i­cal action like yoga, meditation,etc are ok, but some­times if a per­son acquires suf­fi­cient tech­ni­cal knowl­edge in these mat­ters, he becomes a PUNDIT (a San­skrit word for a per­son who knows). Actu­ally, the flight of knowl­edge is lim­ited. In Indian phi­los­o­phy there is a word BHAKTI, equiv­a­lent to devo­tion roughly.
You have to sub­merge all your knowl­edge, sor­row, plea­sure in one entity, the Supreme Being and then the vision gets clear,manifestation of the same being every­where and every­body. /Once you were a frac­tion but then You are min­gled with the whole cir­cle and become the cir­cle itself.

To achieve this vision one has to self hyp­no­tize one self.….…..and the drama begins.…unfolding every­thing, every­where and every­one.……
May we acquire this vison !

With Regards

I’m lov­ing “Dear Burt.” Please keep it up!

Jerry says

For years Spir­i­tual teach­ers (Guru’s) have guided me to become the silent wit­ness in this world when it comes to my chal­lenges that turn neg­a­tive &
to learn to live beyond my belief is neg­a­tive also…

Silent wit­ness mean­ing God…?
Live beyond my beliefs…Meaninig EGO in me…?

So my thought is drop the EGO and live for God,
not the self as Parma­hansa Yogananda teaches…?
Learn­ing the father and I are one…be still…banish doubt and worry…

In your opin­ion…
Is this the right path to be on in this world…
but stay detached and learn to live in Spirit, not the self…

Jerry

Mikael says

Burt, you are doing great.

I do not want to sound demand­ing, I appre­ci­ate “Dear Burt” videos, but could you pos­si­bly post 2 videos (maybe not every week, but every now and then)?

My ques­tion:
How do you rec­comend cleans­ing Chakras etc? (Other than white ball visualization)

To Akila,
I do not think there is a sit­u­a­tion so bad, that you can not get out of that even­tu­ally. I know sit­u­a­tions can some­times feel so bad, that they do not get bet­ter, like there is not a solu­tion for this. I was there and I even tried sui­cide cou­ple of times, but I’m very grate­full that I didn’t suc­ceed. Boy, what great things like great knowl­edge that Burt for exam­ple teaches, I would have missed. I have really great oppor­tu­ni­ties now and kind of feel like those neg­a­tive things in past lead me to even bet­ter road, than I prob­a­bly would be with­out them. Some­times those seem­ingly neg­a­tive events even­tu­ally turn out to be bless­ings in dis­guise. Like Napoleon Hill wisely said:

“Every adver­sity, every fail­ure, every heartache car­ries with it the seed on an equal or greater benefit.”

I believe there is a solu­tion, no mat­ter how bad things may seem. I think sui­cide is really bad decis­sion and per­son­ally believe that souls that did it, regret it later, in after­life. What great things could you miss on life, once your own life really gets bet­ter? I’m 100 % sure that your life will get bet­ter even­tu­ally, spe­cially since you have found Burt.

I don’t rec­comend tak­ing depres­sion or other psy­che drugs, they do not cure the root of prob­lem and in long term they do not have bene­fial side effects. Believe me I know, they got me in worser sit­u­a­tion years ago in first place. =D

Seek out things you enjoy, rent com­edy series dvd’s, go walk­ing in nature, do many lit­tle things that make you feel really good and you enjoy.

Watch your self talk also. What neg­a­tive beliefs do you have? Say Can­cel, Can­cel or STOP! when neg­a­tive thoughts come and replace them with some good memory.

Food could also be one of prob­lems. Maybe. Low car­bo­hy­drate diet (leav­ing grains and diet low fat prod­ucts, eat­ing real but­ter and so on) has been really good for me. Spe­cially leav­ing grains I think has been great deci­sion for me. But I’m not an expert at these diet and food things. Search on your own, but don’t always trust main­stream food and diet reccomendantions.

All the Best for great peo­ple read­ing this blog.

I really like you.

Julie Dryden says

Dear Burt, I have an idea for the sui­ci­dal and the depressed. Count your bless­ings see what God has done for you. Can you see? 1 bless­ing some are born blind, beaten blind, or nor­mally go blind. Do you have Arms,legs, feet, can you hear? Some like the sol­diers at war had them all work­ing and come back wounded and have to start a new life for them­selves and their fam­i­lies. There are 5 more bless­ings. And if you did lose a limb or a hand don’t hide from your fam­ily. They did not fall in love with your hands or legs. They love you for the per­son inside. For who you are. Depressed? Go help some one in need. Visit the nurs­ing homes. Some will be glad you did. Some rel­a­tives can’t go see their rel­a­tives suf­fer. So they don’t go to visit them there. So the elderly suf­fer silently alone.I had a rel­a­tive that could not remem­ber me. Though I tried to remind him. He could not iden­tify me.He told me I am sorry young lady, I don’t know you but thank you for being so kind for vis­it­ing me. He was my Grandpa. He may not remem­ber me but he remem­bered my kind­ness. week later he passed on.Play cards with them or check­ers. A game they will know. Or just lend an ear. They got won­der­ful sto­ries of their past. Our Amer­i­can his­tory in a small town or big city. You will be glad you did. Keep your­self busy. Do things so you don’t have time to think about lone­li­ness or prob­lems. You are a sur­viver of your trou­bles. There is some­one out there that is going to ask you what they should do. Could be your son, your daughter,brother, or a young cou­ple, stranger. Your sur­viv­ing skills will help them. It is like a new teacher. Teach our peo­ple how to survive.You may end up sav­ing some ones life. Now that is very heroetic to me.Something to live for. Smile,it always helps to brighten your day.

Cindy says

Hi Burt,

I’ve been work­ing with the mind­box meth­ods for a while now en some­times they work en some­times not, why is that? I think I do the same as usual?
What method do you need to use to get your­self to take action and not only in mind? Thanks for your answer.

Zukia Claribet says

I would like to hear this from your voice: “The most impor­tant things in the world, to us, are the things we believe that we need. Needs affect opin­ions, atti­tudes, and view­points. Gen­er­ally we’re more aware of unful­filled needs than the ones that are consistently­ met.

Basic Needs vs. Emo­tional Needs

Fun­da­men­tal life needs in par­tic­u­lar are so com­monly accepted that we usu­ally over­look them. No one is aware of the air breathed, the ground walked on, the water drunk, and yet these are the needs we miss most when gone.

When we are deprived of any of the impor­tant basics in life, we sud­denly see them more clearly and as through a mag­ni­fy­ing glass, greatly enlarged.

There are other needs besides the basics, of course, and they mul­ti­ply as we grow. An infant has needs sim­i­lar to those of an adult: food, water, warmth, secu­rity, and some­one see­ing the good in them, or love.

As we mature, the food, water, and warmth are often taken for granted, the needs being con­stantly sup­plied (for most of us).
The basic needs are for­got­ten as other needs appear:

a need for love
for sex­ual ful­fill­ment
procreation

and that great one, the need for a sense of self-esteem.­ A need for lik­ing who you are

Most of these needs, you will note are emo­tional.
Then there are the needs for things, for activities:

money
work
voca­tions
avo­ca­tions
vacations ”

Bimal says

Dear Burt, I thank you for 7 free les­sion on med­i­ta­tion which I received on your offer in early June this year. I may inform you that I am doing Reaki heal­ing for last 12 Yrs. Now Iam about 63 Yrs. of age,a retired senior exec­u­tive and have healthy life.Since,I received your offer on my e-mail,I read the les­sions and found exactly sim­i­lar to that I am doing.Thanks

Deepu Clement says

Dear Burt,

I’m a rela­tion­ship for more than 5 years. We both love each other very much but now offlate he has started ignor­ing me and he is not respond­ing to my mails.

I’m depressed as i cant live with­out him and cant see any­one else in his place. Please help me.

Elizabeth says

Dear Burt,

In the Mind­box series, while med­i­tat­ing to your “Jour­ney to the Spir­i­tual Plane” to heal self-guilt and grief, I was won­der­ing what kind of mind med­i­ta­tion I would have to use for it to be pos­si­ble for the receiv­ing per­son to actu­ally hear and recieve said expla­na­tion and apol­ogy, given that the per­son and myself no longer talk any­more? Per­haps in a dream or some­thing? Or would this tech­nique fol­low a much more endur­ing path into the mind than just a med­i­ta­tion? I do not speak with this per­son any­more but am won­der­ing with the proper tech­niques, how that would work. Thank you.

Dana says

Ques­tion for “Dear Burt”,
In Quan­tum Jump­ing, I learned from an alternate-self that I must learn to respect money for what it is– energy. How­ever, I have really bound myself up in a sense that any­thing involv­ing money is tainted and beneath con­tempt. Espe­cially when it comes to seek­ing wealth and pros­per­ity as a spir­i­tual goal. Those thoughts intrude on my med­i­ta­tions and I feel thwarted by them. Do you have any sug­ges­tions on how to view money appro­pri­ately? — and how to sup­plant prior negi­t­a­tive con­no­ta­tions with pos­i­tive ones?

vishal udia says

your idea is great. idea is good and i am avidly fol­low­ing the replies to your pro­gram.
keep walk­ing
, keep talking

bernardpj manikam says

Burt, Primarily,I decided to remove the attachment“Dear” from your name. With­out the full con­text The word “dear” resem­bles a false approach or a false atti­tude. It is only appro­pri­ate for some­one very close to you eg: your wife, to call or address you as such. Com­ing to text of this note, I see your approach to answers is excep­tion­ally appro­r­i­ate. How­ever You could have used some of your gifted power to heal the per­son seek­ing cure. Lan­guage added with ges­tures makes your reply more inter­est­ing. By that you can draw a big­ger audi­ance at an appointed time to wit­ness and appreaciate.

Kathy Marcotte says

I enjoy your video’s very much, and they have helped me greatly. I can see myself in oth­ers that have posted, and your answers to them, have also helped me.

Please keep up the good work, you have helped so many people.

bonnie J H. says

Hello again Burt, Just below is my ques­tion. How­ever, I wanted to give you my opin­ion on your Dear Burt. I think it’s great and you are very help­ful in answer­ing our ques­tions. I have found it to be extremely help­ful and wor­thy. It does sad­den me to read some of these ques­tions posted. But Burt, you are a very warm and com­fort­ing man and believe this to be a great addi­tion to every­thing else you have done and do. So I will always look for­ward to each Fri­day as you always answer more of my ques­tions through oth­ers. So as you always say, I am get­ting bet­ter and bet­ter. Keep up the great work! You are an amaz­ing human being. Oh one more thing. One per­sons ques­tion was ” which one should he or she get”? Well for what it’s worth, I have got­ten all of them. There all great! Well enough for now. Thank you Burt.

bonnie J H. says

Hello Burt, How are you on these very fine days? I started your Quan­tum Jump­ing courses sev­eral months ago now. I have found after try­ing oth­ers that yours seems to be the one for me. You make it so easy to under­stand and it all makes so much sense. I had one ques­tion about falling asleep before my jump but you have already answered that from another ques­tion. So here’s my other ques­tion. When I find my Dopple­ganger, how do I get her to respond to what I am seek­ing from her? My mind seems to won­der so my find­ing and seek­ing are ham­pered. This seems to be the only issue at hand now. Thank you Burt. You are a bless­ing to all of us. Bonjo

liz says

Way to go Burt! You know I was begin­ning to think you didn’t even read these posts. God knows there are so many. One thing that helps me, when I see the real sad­ness and mis­ery that some peo­ple are suf­fer­ing, it puts my own pif­fling prob­lems in a dif­fer­ent light. I hope you help the peo­ple who trust in you Burt. As for me, I can only offer dis­tant heal­ing from my heart to all of you, because it breaks my heart to realise the amount of peo­ple who are really suf­fer­ing. God Bless and help you one and all. Love and Best Wishes, Liz. xxx

Lor says

Hi Burt

Thank you for all your guid­ance and knowledge.

I’m at the stage of giv­ing up on the law of attrac­tion, cos­mic order­ing, feng shui, med­i­ta­tion, affir­ma­tions, God and angels etc, i’ve made so many changes in the past few years since learn­ing about this whole area but i seem to be in a worse off place, con­tin­u­ally dis­a­pointed at myself for not being able to man­i­fest. At first it was fun and excit­ing but now it’s turn­ing me into a neg­a­tive person-not towards oth­ers but towards myself.

Is there any piece of advice that you can give before i com­pletely give up on it!
Thank you

Marie

Anonymous man says

Dear Burt,
thanks for every­thing you are doing. Now for my questions.

1.I have an energy block­age in my gen­i­tal organs, and some­times it can cause a huge pain. Do you know any tech­niques which could relieve me of this burden?

2.Do you now any tech­nique that I can use to increase my stock­mar­ket trad­ing succes?

Thank you in advance

Ingrid Kayyaliova says

What can I do to improve my atti­tude in prepa­ra­tion for a Quan­tum Jump? What can I do to improve my atti­tude overall?

Dear Burt,

thank you for your e-mails as well as for your lessons, which you sent me.

To be hon­est to you, my eng­lish lan­guage is realy not per­fect and I am in hard life sit­u­a­tion now. So I did not have enough time to study all your lessons yet, but I plan to do it. So I can hardly sug­gest you what you can do bet­ter. I think your work is good, but bet­ter I will know about your work after I will study all your lessons.

Best regards,

Ingrid

nanciellen says

I love these talks, Burt. Was doing chakra and silva mind con­trol before I “stum­bled” upon you. What a great help you are in my life.

Thank you for every­thing. I sure do appre­ci­ate it.

Ragnheidur Olafsdottir says

Hi Burt

I love hear­ing your answers to peo­ple and I am sure that you are
mak­ing a huge wave of good change.
and I am happy for being hit by the good wave.

Lotus says

Sorry I have one thing I really love to add that I recently learned and love to share (esp. with Akila):-

“For some, it is only when you are absolutely con­vinced that you are hope­lessly lost — when you sim­ply do not know where to turn, that you turn within and the real jour­ney begins.”

“The dark­est hour comes right before dawn”(So in a way it is our blessing)

p.s. Our spir­i­tual jour­ney dif­fer from one another. Some peo­ple take big step, some takes small. Stop and rest, seek help when you need, take a turn when you can. The beauty of life is in the journey.

faisal says

Dear Burt,
I am sure you have thou­sands of sto­ries in help­ing oth­ers in their health,mind and sole.Why not share some of these sto­ries with us.
Best regards

Lotus says

Dear Burt,

I do very much like your “Dear Burt” time when I get the chance to check it out. I love the way you are, your ideas, the way you cre­ate such per­sonal touch to your fol­low­ers, your friend­li­ness, your gen­uine­ness, your zest for life, YA! etc.… But MOST of all I love your wis­dom and that nat­ural state of your being — I feel you are so at one with yourself.

BTW, I love your advice for Akila, the part you shared about going to a new town, putting away your past and start­ing life anew. I had a sim­i­lar sit­u­a­tion. I left my coun­try, my job and my boyfriend and went back­pack­ing for a long time, doing odd jobs to get from place to another. My whole out­look to life took a com­plete 360 degree turn. Lit­er­ally I felt I was born again. Although chal­lenges in life do come back again and again but I now have absolute cer­tainty that “No mat­ter what there is ALWAYS a way out.” Let’s start from zero again. It’s fun.

Ken says

Hi Burt, a good selec­tion of ques­tions and as always you answered them with ease thanks.

Charles says

Hey Burt!

Your “Dear Burt” is Very Insight­full! You answered some ques­tions that I have always wanted to know in the past!

You how­ever still didn’t answer my ques­tion a while back, but I guess I under­stand since you have way too many ques­tions to answer.

I’ll try my luck again and ask a ques­tion: I have a prob­lem where I seem to UNCONTROLLABLY chan­nel too much Qi energy. But the MAIN PROBLEM is that I am unable to heal myself any­more as a result!

I think it started when I used your tech­nique of Visu­al­iz­ing the bright sun and then draw­ing “infi­nite” amounts of Energy from the sun and into my body in order to heal myself. I repeat­edly did this many times that now even if I “Very Slightly” visu­al­ize A body part or an organ, I FEEL A STRONG SURGE OF ENERGY ONTO THAT BODY PART! And now I can’t heal myself any­more like in the past.

So would you be able to pro­vide me with some Insight or a tech­nique of get­ting myself back to nor­mal again?
Thank you Very Kindly Burt for any Insights you pro­vide, YOU’RE THE BEST!

Best Wishes,

Charles

melanie says

Dear Burt: Thank you for giv­ing great info. so freely. I am, myself, in a posi­tion of growth, chang­ing my life to bet­ter it, as well as my children’s life! You have helped me in grow­ing spir­i­tu­ally, in many ways, Thank you, Melanie

Claudia D. says

Dear Burt;
I bought the QJ Pro­gramm but can­not man­age for my dou­ble­gang­ger to respond any­thing to me when I wait for an answer. Please give me a hint because that dis­cour­aged me a bit, thanks Burt

madhu says

dear burt, i m in age of 50, and find­ing alone in crowd of greedy peo­ple, killed my hus­band and made me very finanace prob­lem, i m going to face very strongly, but some­times i feel very depreesed and wanted to com­mit sui­cide or feel that i m not worth for anybody.

Max says

Dear Burt
I feel that you speak to each and every one of us per­son­ally. Thank you for your great gift.

maria reyes says

Burt, I have tried your free 7 lessons and I can’t do it I can’t med­i­tate I start think­ing on some­thing else or I fall asleep, I can’t con­cen­trate on it I have prob­lems hear­ing with my right ear, do you think that is the rea­son that I have trou­ble med­i­tat­ing? I have try to med­i­tate because 3 years ago I was diag­nosed with tin­ni­tus, which doc­tors said it would never go away, I have a con­stant noise inside of my head and ear, and I have started to hear it on my left ear, I really don’t want to became com­pletely deaf, please help. Thank you.

Julie says

Dear Burt, Thank you for your blogs. Your answers do give me lots of advice. I have espe­cially focused on your var­i­ous heal­ing tech­niques. They have offered some relief. My ques­tion: Are there any deeper heal­ing tech­niques which I could use to heal chronic pain? I have had chronic back pain for over 25 years. Could you sug­gest a tech­nique that pro­grams heal­ing over a period of time say, a week, at reg­u­lar inter­vals? With grat­i­tude, Julie

Kenny says

below mes­sage for faisal, sorry.

Akila , you remind me of a freind of mine , and myself at one point.

My friend is get­ting bet­ter and although i never con­sid­ered sui­cide i am bet­ter also.

You are at level 2 most likely in the accen­tion phase..

for me in this phase i was con­fused and blind to the affects that med­i­ta­tion were doing from me… but i kept try­ing and even­tu­ally got myself con­fi­dent in med­i­ta­tion again and accended again.

My advice to you is , value you life do not end it shortly, and keep med­i­tat­ing , im going to guess you dont med­i­ta­tee every day like i didnt , start med­i­tat­ing more often and focus on what YOU want , and stuff will start to come to you and answer your ques­tions. I cant tell you how because it is dif­fer­ent for each per­son but you will know it when you see it.

If you want some exam­ples of how putting effort into med­i­ta­tion helps , well my asthma is depleted i used to be out of school for weeks on end because of it , last year i got per­fect attendence.

I FOUND 70 dol­lars the other day … and am about to get a bit more… not only that but the day after i found the money a freind of mine offered me a gor­geous elec­tric gui­tar, which ive wanted one forever,for 50 dollars…and i got offered an i pod touch for fifty dol­lars also ( im about to get 30+ money for sell­ing some old stuff)

i cant give you much bet­ter things except that med­i­ta­tion is a jour­ney of self, and like any­thing worth get­ting requires prac­tise and a bit of time to put into it before you get exactly when you want and recog­nise you got it from med­i­ta­tion. Med­i­ta­tion is a journey…remember that every­time you doubt it , dont give up.

Dr. C says

Hi Burt,

I love this for­mat, and your efforts to con­nect per­son­ally with your mentees are to be com­mended. The only sug­ges­tion I would make is to review the ques­tions in advance and per­haps sum­ma­rize them on a 3x5 card that you can eas­ily read. Thank you for all that you are doing to help the next generation.

And to the woman who is con­cerned about being 50–I’m just turn­ing 60 and my most use­ful and pro­duc­tive years haven’t even begun! My recipe for suc­cess: Be a life-long learner, and Burt Gold­man is the per­fect role model!

(BTW, I LOVE that paint­ing in the background!)

Kindy says

Hello Burt,

Thank you for your emails; they seem to be the only thing that is con­sis­tent these days. I would like to have a per­sonal chat with you over some of my wild expe­ri­ences that I feel are the result of quan­tum jumping.

For some rea­son I am drawn to you and would love to meet you face to face. I do believe we were meant to meet. I am here in Las Vegas, NV and I do believe you are in LA.

I will keep you in mind and ask that you do the same for me and wait patiently for the day we may pos­si­bly meet.

Thank you for being such an inspiration.

Pos­i­tive Regards,
Kindy

Kenny says

O and akila , if you get to read this , use the bahga , energy is trapped in your upper­body , just imag­ine all your ener­gies evenly balence through­out your body when you med­i­tate , it should help.

You can also find some chakra med­i­ta­tions and deve­l­ope your root and navel chakras a lit­tle more

electicenergys.com has some good ones ( search deve­l­ope chkars in google.. i dont know the exact website…)

Basi­cally there are two dif­fer­ent energy cir­cu­la­tions of chi in your body.. one cir­cu­lated through your head and the rest through your body , when you do the bagha it unites these ener­gies faster then med­i­ta­tion alone , which puts your body in balence and peace.

hopw you get to read this and it helps

Chris says

As I agree in refer­ring to Akila to a ther­a­pist, I do not agree in doc­tor refer­ral for such an issue, nor med­ica­tion. These meth­ods just mask the prob­lem, and make peo­ple fur­ther lost in dark­ness. I believe that is what hap­pened to some close rel­a­tives of mine, believ­ing doc­tors and the pharmaco-hypno-tisements seen on TV (ie– if you feel this way, you need our pills). This led to extreme behav­ioral changes, and the longer peo­ple go through these chan­nels, they end up most like an empty shell. Intro­spec­tion is ret­ro­spec­tion, the key to the future is releas­ing the past.

Kenny says

Hey Burt , I’m a younger mem­ber of this site…im 14.

And i was won­der­ing how to apply some of these tech­niques, me being at a younger age.

Specif­i­cally wealth , my income relies on my par­ents income in a way so how do i become wealthy if they are not , and IF THEY REFUSE to do med­i­ta­tions , and refuse to allow me to buy any of yours.

Oth­er­wise how you doing Burt? I have devel­oped a the­ory i would like you to read

I made the the­ory of Accen­tion this the­ory is as follows:

I beleive that their are dif­fer­ent lev­els of accen­tion
..or enlight­en­ment , and you gain these lev­els by ran­dom things tat have a per­pose to you in your life , it can hap­pen while med­i­tat­ing or not.

The excep­tion is the first level which you need to med­i­tate to achieve..But after that first level things start attract­ing to you ( aside from money and that stuff) by things i just mean ran­dom things…for exam­ple it could be a song you want to hear or know the name of that has a lyric in it that has some spe­cial per­pose , like it solves a prob­lem you have been hav­ing or answers a ques­tion you have been wondering.

Its hard for me to explain , but each level you get MUCH deeper and more enlight­ened , like 4 times what you used to be. And you know when you advance too

Id say im at LoA 4 ( LoA= level of accention)

What do you think of this? i think it sums it up pretty good.. each level you have an expe­ri­ence that advances you to the next and these lev­els go on and on i believe.

I almost quit med­i­tat­ing at level 2 because i was con­fused and it seemed like i was get­ting no where but i kept at it and went to level 3 and am not so con­fused then and a lot more energy and confidence..i advanced to four recently when i was lis­ten­ing to some Pink Floyd while med­i­tat­ing

It will be dif­fer­ent fore eac per­son to accend because every­one has dif­fer­ent prob­lems and won­ders dif­fer­ent things..

bet­ter and bet­ter Burt , that phrase kept me going to level 3 , and now im at 4 , thank you much .

Hi Burt,

I attended some of your train­ings years ago and turned my life from “stressed-out” (fif­teen cups of cof­fee a day!) to “going with the flow” (zero cof­fees a day!). I’d like to share a recent hap­pen­ing to show how ATTITUDE changed real­ity, but first a note to your­self, if I may. Your email said “I’m dying to know what you think”. With great respect, please can­cel that “dying” thought in this con­text! The mind is lis­ten­ing and it can be very lit­eral, as you know!

Now the hap­pen­ing:
I just moved from one city to another, coin­ci­dent with a for­mer housemate’s move but to dif­fer­ent apart­ments. The house­mate saw every­thing as a major obsta­cle, result­ing in “the move from Hell” – many items bro­ken or miss­ing, grossly over­charged by the mover, who even forged a check, police involved, court case, etc. In con­trast, I remained calm through­out, treat­ing each chal­lenge as an adven­ture, result­ing in a move that went flaw­lessly. I even moved on faith before I had a firm job offer in the new city, because I just believed and “knew” I would get the job — and I did! I’m very happy, but the for­mer house­mate is still extremely stressed. Thoughts affect­ing real­ity… (obser­va­tion, not judgment).

I now live my life by some quotes I’d like to share with you about ATTITUDE (apolo­gies — this is longer than orig­i­nally planned!):

(A) There are only two things you “have” to do in life:
(1) You “have” to die, and (2) you “have” to live UNTIL you die. ALL the rest you made up! (Quoted by Dr. Robert Anthony) — so if you don’t like it, make up some­thing else!!

(B) EITHER find work that is fun to do, OR find fun in the work you believe you “have” to do. The third alter­na­tive is a form of Death! (Source unknown)

© My glass isn’t half full OR half empty — its half way to the next glass! (A friend at a party!)

And finally…
(D) If you think your mis­sion in this life is ended, take a look around. If you’re still here, it hasn’t! (Quoted by Dr. Robert Anthony)

Great stuff, Burt. Keep up the good work!
Roy

Bridget says

Re. Vicky’s com­ment and depres­sion. I believe, and indeed it has been my expe­ri­ence, that the very thought we are think­ing causes the depres­sion ie. we can’t be depressed unless we think ‘untrue, depress­ing’ thoughts. When we are vig­i­lant of our thoughts, ie. aware when we are feel­ing uncom­fort­able, and let go of the belief that is fuel­ing this, the hap­pi­ness is under­neath. When we suc­ceed in let­ting go of the belief the relief is imme­di­ate. This is an expe­ri­ence and not an inter­lec­tual feat. Truly, we are harmed by noth­ing but our own thoughts.

Our pur­pose is not any spe­cific goal, but to reach this state of com­fort­able­ness and from that place to decide what we would like to do, i.e. to bring our hap­pi­ness to all we meet and to all we undertake.

God bless

Anne says

Read this on a wall placque:

“The secret to hap­pi­ness, is to enjoy what one has to do.” Attitude.

“pre­tend that you have faith and even­tu­ally you will.”

Thanks

Bill says

Keep it up Burt. I’m a Silva Grad and really find your infor­ma­tion really inter­est­ing. I love the ques­tions and answers.

kathy says

Hi Burt,
I like what you said about all topic and just bought Quan­tum Jump. every time when I med­i­ta­tion I feel relaxed but feel really hard to visu­al­ize and never feel inter­ac­tive with the dou­ble ganger, does this mean i am not in alpha level?
another ques­tion, dur­ing this kind med­i­ta­tion, should we carry emo­tion with or should stay neu­tral? should use mind more or less?
thanks for won­der­ful pro­gram.
kathy

dean says

The mas­sage tech­nique really works well.
Cheers.

Alex says

Dear Burt, I am so grate­ful for this 4th Fri­day issue. For the four of them.

You know, dur­ing the first one, at the very end of it I did touch your fin­ger. That was the last day I lit up a cig­a­rette. August 14th. I have smoked unin­ter­rupt­edly for 24 years and it has been the first three weeks with­out smoke ever.

What can I say. Thank you from the bot­tom of my heart.

Abbas says

thank you Burt i enjoyed it

Bill says

Burt,

You are a one of a kind, and I appre­ci­ate you.

Bill

Marceau Jouett says

I think your offers, and with what you are work­ing on is won­der­ful, Burt. I have no com­plaints what­so­ever with what you are about-none.

My prob­lem, which is MY prob­lem, is that I’m so polit­i­cally active, sin­gle, just turned 59 years old, and writ­ing my own book as well as devel­op­ing my own web­site. All of this keeps me very busy and it can get pretty hec­tic at times. As you can see I hadn’t pro­vided a URL as my web­site is still under development.

I would even­tu­ally like to take advan­tage of your offers and your pro­gram. With what I have learned so far about all of this is that I think your work is just won­der­ful. It’s excellent.

I just ask you to keep my email address on your list so when I fin­ish up with my own endeav­ors so that I can devote more of my efforts into work­ing with you.

Presently I just don’t feel that I can give you the much deserved atten­tion that you have earned. Please con­sider me one of your can­di­dates for your pro­gram in the next month or so.

Thank you!

Sin­cerely

Marceau

Marilyn R Williams says

Hi Burt — thank you for the “Dear Burt” videos — the infor­ma­tion is won­der­fully uplift­ing. It’s like a weekly video post­card from a fam­ily mem­ber

Atti­tude is every­thing. I used to have trou­ble clean­ing my house, even though I had always had a spot­less place, one day I just found it painful to clean. Lit­er­ally painful. So I decided that maybe I just needed a rest.

Long story short — one day I real­ized that I was liv­ing in a house that was so messy and needed to be cleaned so badly that it was beyond embarrassing.

In fact, and this will sound like a joke, one night I thought there was an elec­tri­cal fire start­ing, but before I called the fire depart­ment, I did a quick clean­ing! Yes, my house could have been burn­ing but it was sooooooo messy that I didn’t want the fire­men com­ing in and see­ing it that bad. In fact, I only had time to do the area where the elec­tric panel was and would not let them in the front door.

AT that time, I had no idea what was going on with me. How­ever, I started lis­ten­ing to self improve­ment and moti­va­tional speak­ers and when they sug­gested that I lis­ten to my self talk, the answer was found.

Due to years of abuse from my fam­ily and loved ones, I was run­ning their neg­a­tive crit­i­cism through my head every time I started to clean. These peo­ple never appre­ci­ated that I cleaned up after them like an unpaid maid and felt if they could find some­thing that was not per­fect, then they did not have to even acknowl­edge the work I did. Their nasty hate­ful voices had been keep­ing me com­pany with­out my notic­ing or real­iz­ing how dev­as­tat­ing that was to my atti­tude and health.

Once I real­ized what was going on, I imme­di­ately did the next step and wrote affir­ma­tions that were oppo­site to what the abuse told me. It took less than 30 days (although I still use the affir­ma­tions, espe­cially when I start feel­ing down) before a rad­i­cal change was made in my motivation.

I had thought it was my bad atti­tude when in fact it was my mem­o­ries of the past cre­at­ing a bad atti­tude. After can­cel­ing out those mem­o­ries, every­thing became much eas­ier. My house isn’t spot­less, but it is get­ting bet­ter every­day — just like me.

So in sum­mary — if any one finds that they are hav­ing trou­ble doing what they know they need to do or they are not happy -

Check your self talk and then write affir­ma­tions oppo­site the talk.

Read those affir­ma­tions sev­eral times a day every day for 30 days and be amazed at the changes that start to happen.

One other impor­tant thing to do is to keep pos­i­tive peo­ple close and neg­a­tive peo­ple far away! Some of my “friends” were so nasty that I won­der why I even hung around them, but peo­ple keep friends that are not sup­port­ive around out of habit, I guess. I even let go of a 15 year live in boyfriend because he refused to stop being neg­a­tive and I could not change any­more to make it work.

Finally, give your­self per­mis­sion to not be per­fect. Some­times, I only wash 1/2 the dishes or do just one load of laun­dry. It is not nec­es­sary to do the entire task at once.

The joy I have now is wonderful.

Any­way, take care and thank you for your video help!

Agape, Mar­i­lyn

Cindy says

Love Dear Burt! Always great to watch you and the photo you painted behind you in this video looks fab!! Happy Fri­day, love and Light

erwin says

Burt, you are the best. You’re like a father I never had bring kind­ness and love to a young boy who never knew much of that. I’ve worked my whole life try­ing to fig­ure out what’s wrong with me, what defect I had that I could fix and then be loved like my peers but I still haven’t fig­ure much out. Some of your CD’s have cer­taintly lifted my spirit and give me hope for a bet­ter life. I thank you for shar­ing your gifts of hap­pi­ness and love. God Bless you and your work! Erwin

Rose says

I now have a new goal: to meet Burt Gold­man and shake your hand or give you a hug. And by the way, do you have an affil­i­ate pro­gram? I would love to rep­re­sent you. Sorry if this blog is not the appro­pri­ate vehi­cle, but I am just try­ing to con­tact you.

By the way, I love your 5 pil­lars of hap­pi­ness and posted it on my Squidoo lens http://www.squidoo.com/HappinessSeeds so that more peo­ple could find out about you, and profit from your material.

Benedikte says

Dear Burt

I am pretty amaz­ing at chang­ing beliefs and emo­tional states, using cre­ativ­ity of mind. I can also cause changes in my body by chang­ing my atti­tude and men­tal body image. I can heal other peo­ple and it is easy for me to con­tact and learn from other sources than my present self. One thing that seems unchanged in my life is the issue of money. It is like i repel them when­ever I am doing what I really want, fol­low­ing my intu­ition and work­ing towards ful­fill­ing my pur­pose. It is not that i can’t earn money but it is always on some­thing that gives me a set back from what I truly believe I should be doing and wants to do. Do you have any ideas to solve this?

Nikki says

Great job!! What a won­der­ful idea to help those who need direc­tion and good, prac­ti­cal advice.

Nikki says

Great blog!! I love your sim­ple yet prac­ti­cal answers to each ques­tion. Thanks for tak­ing the time to do this for those who are seek­ing help and direction.

Amy says

Dear Burt,
Yes, this blog is most wor­thy and useful–anyone who can save another’s san­ity is most worth­while. And that is what you have done for me. I wish I could give you a big hug and kiss for help­ing me with my prob­lem, but I reckon I shall just have to set­tle for send­ing you lots of love men­tally. Please con­tinue with this blog for as long as you are able, because you are help­ing so many, and I for one, would be lost with­out it. I look so for­ward to this every week.
You truly are an amaz­ing man, and we love you so much.
Hugs and bless­ings to you,
Amy

James says

Hi Burt, Can some­one inform me of what is Quan­tum Jumping.

Sec­ondly, How does one draw the Uni­ver­sal Energy into one’s self?

Gwyneth says

Hello Burt, unlike Maria, I actu­ally smiled when I read your request for ‘feed-back’ and men­tally said to you ‘No Burt, don’t die yet we need your clear think­ing and pearls of wis­dom gleaned from an incred­i­ble life­time of learn­ing and expe­ri­ence. Your Blogs and Courses are an inspi­ra­tion, as Patrick says, please con­tinue until at least you are 120 — a gen­tle calm­ing influ­ence to so many peo­ple in these trou­bled times. Thank you for your gen­er­ous sharing.

Love and Light

Gigi Brown says

Dear Burt,
You do a fan­tas­tic job of advice. I can only hope to wish you the great­est suc­cess and con­tin­u­ance of your bril­liance. Thank you,
Gigi

Julia says

I want change com­pletely, want have con­fi­dent talk with people,want to be happy and suc­cess. please help ! love and best wishes.

Nora Walters says

Yes Burt, I do beleive, the Dear Burt pro­gram is totally won­der­ful, some­times the response to a par­tic­u­lar ques­tion tends to con­dense and sim­plify that, that was also in your mind per­haps com­ming from a difer­ent angle.
ANYWAYS, IT IS ENJOYABLE!!!

Eric says

Hi There,

It all seems so sim­ple with you, Burt!
I guess it is the short­est way to a happy and free life.
Most of us make it over­com­pli­cated, when it could be so much eas­ier.
Faith comes from belief and con­fi­dence, and it can move moun­tains.
Thanks for being you.

Eric

NJ says

Hi Burt: Your “DEAR BURT” is an excel­lent idea with that per­sonal touch and the video too. It’s like talk­ing to you one on one. Thanks and look fwd to it.

margo says

Burt as always you use sim­ple prac­ti­cal exam­ples and your atti­tude is so car­ing and so straight­for­ward. Thank you for all you do

PAtrick says

Hi Burt,
You are doing a very nice job, here.
It helps to grow and to be ener­gized.
I wish you a long happy ful­filled healthy life until 120 years or more
Patrick

Laguna says

Hi Burt, I find “Dear Burt” very help­ful as you answer many ques­tions from many peo­ple and we can learn some­thing new from those ques­tions you answered. Thanks for shar­ing so much!

B.Marie says

Your advice is thought­ful and prac­ti­cal as always. Thank you for shar­ing with us. I do enjoy your audio blog.

I also enjoy your med­i­ta­tions and cen­ter­ing audios. Dis­trac­tions though are a prob­lem for me. It seems that even when the envi­ron­ment coop­er­ates, my body will begin to cre­ate dis­trac­tions such as itch­ing or tin­gling. Do you have any sug­ges­tions on how to over­come this?
Thanks again,
B. Marie

beverly says

Hi Burt,

I enjoy your “Dear Burt” blog very much and appre­ci­ate the time that you give freely to answer the questions.

Your answer’s are always infor­ma­tive and cer­tainly wor­thy. I do wish that the sound could be a few octaves higher as in your other ‘you tube’ videos.

Have a good week­end, look­ing for­ward to next weeks class.

Many Bless­ings,

Bev­erly

Dennis says

Burt:

Thanks much for tak­ing the time to answer our questions.

I find the mate­r­ial you cover to be very valuable.

I really appre­ci­ate the guid­ance you provide.

All the best,
Dennis

Maria says

I am aghast!
Of all peo­ple, Burt, how can you pos­si­bly write in the sub­ject of an e-mail: “I am dying to know.…‘
In my opin­ion no one prac­tic­ing your med­i­ta­tion tech­niques and Silva Mind Con­trol should EVER use those words!
I am totally amazed; I hope this is just some­one who is doing your mar­ket­ing who doesn’t have a clue!
It does not seem fit­ting for you to write such a sen­tence!
Bless you, Burt!
Maria

Gerry says

Love it…it is my first time see­ing it.….great prac­ti­cally advice.…..people the world over whether in a small coun­try like Ire­land here which many peo­ple I am sure never heard of…or in Large coun­tries like the US or Aus­tralia basi­cally are the same.….and now the inter­net are mak­ing us all a much closer com­mu­nity in any event.…..am sure look­ing for­ward to more of Dear Burt and Long May It Prosper

Leila says

Hi Burt, I liked this edi­tion of Dear Burt. I like the way you don’t shy away from dif­fi­cult ques­tions and man­age to find a con­cise but use­ful answer. Thanks, I think the whole idea is a great one.

Vicky says

Good advice Burt, to Akila:
Depres­sion can be a devis­tat­ing ill­ness and can creep up on us so quick. A “midlife cri­sis” sit­u­a­tion can often cause us to ques­tion our life’s pur­pose and look back over our life review. Defi­nately get coun­sel­ing and med­ica­tion, Akila. You may also con­sider vol­un­teer work at a local hos­pi­tal, food pantry, or home­less shel­ter. Read­ing the book “Secrets of the Light” by Dan­ion Brink­ley really has helped me to “see the big­ger pic­ture”. I have been a nurse since 1984 and have helped thou­sands of par­ents care for their babies. Even so, at age 50, I really had to stop and say; “what have I really done with my life”. Am I truly on task and on tar­get for ful­fill­ing my life’s pur­pose? Chris­t­ian book­stores also have a wealth of books to help you dis­cover and acheive your divine des­tiny. Joel Osteen has pub­lished lit­er­a­ture aimed at help­ing you “Be a Bet­ter You”. You may gain com­fort from get­ting plugged in to a local church with sup­port groups. All the best to you Akila ; please know dear heart that peo­ple really do care.
Vicky, RN, BSN
