Hi Friends,
Today is Friday and you know what that means. It’s time for another Dear Burt.
Today I’ve decided to address the 7 years period. It’s quite a broad subject so I had a long somewhat involved answer it.
Every 7 years we enter into another octave of life.
The difference in these cycles is most notable during the early, formative years. The 14 year old is drastically different from the 7 year old, the 21 year old is miles apart from the 14 year old and so on. While there remains a vast difference between the ages of 7 and 14, we tend not to notice as big of one between the ages of 21 to 28, 28 to 35, and so forth but the difference still exists.
What we can expect from each cycle or octave depends on our intent. If you believe that at a given age you're "old", then you'll reflect age. If you believe it's a new start, then watch out world, here you come.
So set the intention today to approach either your current octave or your upcoming one as a fresh start at life and don't think of yourself as getting older, you're simply being given an opportunity to do it all again. It's all in the eye of the beholder.
Now onto the questions for this week 
Dear Burt,
Thanks for all your weekly comments, I always look forward to them. You mentioned something about the SEVEN YEAR PERIODS of life. This week I will be hitting age 71. Entering the 11th. period. Any comments on that period, what to expect, etc.?James
Dear Burt,
Thanks Burt, I also enjoy these weekly videos very much. I have a question concerning Quantum Jumping. Is it possible to experience a Quantum Jump through dreams?David
Dear Burt,
Burt, I want to read your books but I can’t find them anywhere. Do you have them in e-book format? I’ve wanted to read them from the moment I was aware of them but didn’t know how to get them. Please e-mail me as I know no other way to get your response. Thanks — Love your painting. I am an artist as well. I live in Commerce, GA a small, small place and I like it that way. Thanks for sharing your wisdom. I will think of my head and eye when they ache. Epiclaritis be gone!Carla
Dear Burt,
Thanks again Burt. I look foward to Fridays! Can you tell me the difference between Reiki and Qigong energy work? Do they both work from a distance? Do they work better in person? PS I love the picture!Valerie
Dear Burt,
I really look forward to Friday evenings when I get to listen to your message. I have been listening to the Daisy Pond for quite some time now. Somewhere I read that it is not good to fall asleep during meditation. I seem to fall asleep every time. Could you share your thoughts on this? I am trying to do a new set of cds that include relaxation, breathing techniques, and healing and want to get the most from them. Thank you.Lin
Dear Burt,
Love your ”Dear Burt”, so insightful. I have been a follower of your work for a couple of years now and I must say, my life is so much more fun now. I quit having excuses; I only have projects now, tons of projects. I don’t worry anymore and I certainly don’t lack in any way shape or form. I am happy and fulfilled. Thank you. Just one question. I still fall asleep sometimes when meditating. I knew it was normal when I started but how long is this going to last?Thank, love your stuff. Martyne from Quebec City Canada
Here is my video response:
I hope you enjoyed this edition of "Dear Burt". Please leave your questions and comments for next week.
Sincerely,
Burt
My name is Burt Goldman. I’m one of those “lucky people” who discovered a secret early in life. For the last 50 years, I have been traveling the world and meeting and studying spiritual masters from every inch of our planet. Now, at the age of 82, I'm ready to share with the world what I have learned. I started this blog to be able to share with you my most valuable teachings and insights I have gained over the past few decades. Here, you'll find plenty of valuable information on meditation, energy healing, spirituality, and my latest revelation, Quantum Jumping. I look forward to connecting with you and I sincerely hope you enjoy being a part of this blog.

I found your entry interesting thus I've added a Trackback to it on my weblog
...
Thank you Burt
with love and light
You're looking cheery Burt! Glad to see you and learn about octaves. That's interesting to me because the film "Waking Life" introduced me to it when one character mentioned how the human body completes regenerating every cell in it every seven years. Is this why certain beliefs would have that people used to live into several hundreds of years of age? It used to seem far-fetched, like so many other metaphysical teachings...but it's like when one begins to see that everything is just kinda the same, well it, in turn, becomes all equally plausible. That's why it works so brilliantly that the key to the joy and bliss of those experiences is revealed to be one's own responsibility.
Thank you, Burt. You helped me be inspired.
Dear Burt,
I really enjoyed this weeks blog and always look forward to the following week to learn more from you.
I have a question regarding the Healing-Triangle. does a person have to be a Silva Grad to take the course? I am already involved and lovng it too.
Second question which is really getting my interst up is can you tell us what you di when you healed that womans knee during that your classes. I certainly aould love to learn the technique you used to do this. I was vey impressed and want t learn how you did it. Pleae share with us.
Also would love to learn more Qi Gong techniques. You make them look so easy and are they as easy as you say they are?
You also said that the main thing needed when doing healing is your intention to heal and keep out the emotions. Does this mean you can do anything with yur hands or whatever as long as your desire is there to heal people.
Oh I would love to attend one of your seminars again like back in the old days in San Diego. I have been following you ever since.
Thanks Burt for all that you do for mankind.

Dear Burt,
Thank you so much for your Friday "Dear Burts."
They're always full of good, useful information. It's nice to be able to come in and learn such valuable information. What a shift it is from all of the heavy,dark things that you hear about on the radio.
Terry
Dear Burt,
What's the best way to gain control over my emotions and thoughts? I keep catching myself living in worry or feeling shame over silly things, and I'd love to let all that go and just move on in happiness.
Thanks for everything!

Thank you Burt for sharing your wisdom with us. It's funny that "growing younger" is the subject this week. I ,personally, have made a concious decision to grow younger. The amazing part of this is the fact that I made this decision less than a week before receiving the e-mail notification of this weeks "Dear Burt"! What a pleasant surprise! I have not reached the age of 35. As a younger man , say around 20, I always said "you're only as old as you feel". Now it is time to practice this.
So I have programmed myself to grow younger and already feel and see the effects. Any other information in this area will be appreciated and thanks again for all I have received thus far.
I was waiting for the workbooks which would be wonderful to use with the mindbox, Thank you - you are fabulous- & the same age too. Lily
I have never received the work books- I was wondering why- I love the Mindbox. Lily Murphy
Dear Burt,
I was so eager to hear more about how the Octaves in our lives are influenced by our intentions.
Some weeks ago you said that you would talk about our Love for God.
Please tell us more about that and THANK YOU for your beautiful attitude toward life which radiates to all of us in the whole world. I would like to be like you
some day.
Hi Pedro,
I have just removed you from our mailing list.
Cheers,
Alexandra
Dear Burt, I am a relative new follower of your mostly simple and wonderful truths. I have your mind box and am working with it. I was wondering if you could help me with some pointers for healing and comforting my son who is grappling with severe mental illness. He is actually following Chi-Gong and other modalities. I have given him some of your Mind box CDs. which he is not quite interested in yet.I would just like to help him along. thank you Burt for your Friday sessions. Rosemarie
Hi Burt, thanks again for your wonderful knowledge.
Many people say that events in your life are all about timing. Do you agree with this? How much of our lives are mapped out for us (if at all) and how much control do we really have over the course of our life? and finally i read in a spiritual book that before coming into our physical body we knew when we would exit it again, that is, the time/year of our death.....do you believe this?
Thanks again
Lor Ireland
Dear Burt,
Thank you so much for all your wisdom and your youtube videos please never stop.
I also love your blog.I will be 52 May 6th this year and because of my 1 year long sickness which keep me in pain I just feel like 100 year old.I know now that it is a wrong way of thinking!
Thank you for explaining so wonderfully easy the meaning of the 7 year periods.After hearing you talking about your intent for your future I decide to get my act together and stop be grumpy.
You look so handsome and full of life and have so many woderful interests.
I love your spiritual approach.Thank you for beeing there for us.
Good Luck with anything you do.I wish all your dreams continuing coming true for you !
Love

Dear Burt,
Is it possible to get your books in hard copy.I am old fashioned in the fact that I still like holding a book and turning the cherished pages.
Kindest Reguards,

Hi Burt,you have lot great stuff to share with many people,and I am sure many will benifit from your life experinces,etc...I have come from europe and have several family members who lived over 100,none of them have ever heard of Silva Method or Quantum this or that some of them could not even read or write,but they were were wise,and full of life,anyone who ever had any problem including some of highly educated folks would often come and ask for help from those old"uneducated" folks?My question is where did they get their wisdom,and their knowledge,without ever going to school or having any money to educate themselves,etc,I often wonder and ask other "wise gurus" of today about this,and so far nobody could tell me the simple answer on this question...sure would like to hear from you on this.Thanks.Ivan-a guy who is happy to be alive.
I am so pleased with You & Your techniques, gives a variety of wellness tools as well as improving ones look out on life. How does one keep from procrastinating???any new technique??
Dear Burt,
Thank you so much for all your wisdom! Quite some time ago you posted a message about candles and how with the power of your intention and the candle it can dissipate negative energy in your life. I use this technique regularly and it works wonders! You had mentioned that you would teach us a method to use candles for attracting love if enough people were interested. I'm interested! I have been waiting patiently for you to teach us this method. Please teach us! Thank you so much for all that you do!
Sincerely,

Thank you, Burt, for another great "Dear Burt". I get so much out of this.
I am from Long Island, New York.
My question is this: When sending healing energy, does a person have to protect their own self from being drained of energy. I have been told this by others. If the answer is "Yes"-what is a method for doing so.
Hi Burt, Thank you so much, you have helped me in a time of indiscission. I am going into my 2nd life cycle April 24 and I now understand what my mind set needs to be..... I am active , healthy, whole & HUMMING! Young, loving & lively!! Financially sound and successful, loving life and helping humanity...Love and Light, Love and Light, Love and Light too all;)
Dear Burt,
Have I ever told you how amazing you are? Well, you really are and what you are doing for all of is so great and so inspiring!
Thank you for being here.
Dear Burt,
I have a question regarding dreams. My wife dreams all the time, even during short naps during the day. My concern is that she absolutetly believes in dreams and connects them to her daily realities. She gives meanings and interpretations of her own(which I think are absurd)and justifies her misfortune and difficulties. To her, her dreams and realities are connected and interwined. She often indulge in self pity and cries.
Please help me to understand.
Hi Burt, I love your youthful attitude to ageing - I think it's catching!
Thanks Burt. Thanks to the Quantum Jumping experience I HAVE to live until I'm 120 to do all the things I want to do! You and QJ will help me accomplish those goals.
My book is now finished in record time. Thanks to QJ and Burt Goldman! My Internet Business is getting there. I started a new phase in my life when I reached age 65 but the two years before set up the circumstances needed for the change in direction. Is this the ONLY place to send you feedback etc or do you have another place ~ email address etc.? I cannot find such a place.
Yours aye, Rob
It is very nice to motivate ourseves about a start of new life after every 7 years
I feel that we can review also what were the major achievements we made in the last spell of Seven year ,which may motivate our us to plan for next seven years. Next year I will be entering into 10th cycle of 7years
Thank you Burt
Hi Burt,
Enjoy your videos. I really liked your painting,reminds me of one in my home. It is pleasant to look at.
Hi, Bert, Enjoy your videos. I bought "Golden Triangle' and can hardly wait to get into it. I had some trouble with the video, but didn't call anyone because I was so busy and wanted to give it my whole attention. Monday, I'm submitting my first book electronically and I can't believe how much time it takes. I'm 76 and I wish that I could say that I don't feel it. I always did yoga until a few years ago and know that I must get back to some kind of exercise like this. I'm trying to practice self-healing on myself, but my trouble is lack of energy instead of one specific part of my body hurting. Looking forward to next week and trying some of your techniques.
thanks Burt people are beginning to learn with your help that we are entering a new and wonderful age.Please address the 2012 issue and this Planet x and Niburu and your vision into the future whether we will survive.
Hi Burt,
What is your opinion on changing the physical appearance? Im apart of a group called Changing Physical Appearance on powerfulintentions.org and I run into problems when I see my current self in a mirror. I can visualize fine in my mind and go around feeling myself with my desired appearance but when I look in the mirror, that's when It messes up my progress. Any suggestions?

Dear Burt,
I have been using your different programs for some time now.
I bought the healing triangle recently and have not found any reference to the scarf or the dwadle that I have seen on your dear burt videos.
Is there a link to each of these two techniques and how do you suggest we mere mortals use them please to help others.
I have a dear friend who has chronic arthritis and other forms of similar disease. One shoulder has been repaired and replaced while the other shoulder is to be done in about five months time. The ankle is just as bad with fingers that can hardly be moved. All joints appear to be bone on bone with nothing in between to soften the rotations. How does one help her please as life is very difficult for her.
Thank you for the wonderful work you are doing in educating people to assist themselves and others.
I have seen the scarf technique performed by you on a Utube video but the explanations on what to do did not seem to be there. Have I missed something in the healing triangle program, thank you in advance.
When are you going to adventure down under to Sydney Australia, so we can better benefit from your training.
Kind regards
John
Dear Burt,
where can I sign up for the audio lessons & meditating techniques? I don't see any send
button. Tried to sign up last Friday already.
Had the same problem.
The green painting last Friday I liked better.
Thanks for answer in advance

Hi Burt, I can't believe people charge so much for their god given talent, (the operative word God given). God gives everything, in most cases the only cost is their time,yet God is still there at no charge trying to steer you in the right direction, God lets you Know when you have gone off the right path, because there will be stumbling blocks to prove it. The sad thing is though, sometimes it is hard to find the road back to the right path, and you need a teacher to help you, but most of us can't afford it, so we just keep going around and around, hoping to stumble back on the right path. The answer is quite simple, take your mind back to when things were simple in your life and go from there. Thank you Burt for been sooo giving. ooxx nz
dear burt
i don’t know how i got un-subcribed from ‘dear burt’ email , i was concern because for three fridays i did not get a e-mail , please put me back on your list for the ‘dear burt’ every friday. I enjoyed it greatly. thanks mary
hello out there-no e-mail -what is happening
Thanks Burt for your comment on the octaves of life. Yes I am really looking forward, not in the past.I am in better health now that when I were 35. I tend to shock people when they learn of my age. Finding it hard to keep the young ladies away, believe me. Looking forward to another 40 years. No kidding.
Just excellent work dear BURT!
I admire your simplicity in dealing with so complex issues...
I've started some years back with Silva Method and arrived a couple of years ago to American Monk's Mind Box(really very powerful words you chose).
But, however, until this moment I try hard to convince myself accepting reality in or, existence of all that stuff.
I know I've been wrong perhaps, that's why I would appreciate it very much if you could suggest how to change these beliefs of mine. Would it be possible? (don't tell me everything is possible!)

Hi Burt - Thanks for reminding me that it only gets better. I noticed in my life that I went through cycles - since they seemed to be growth, decline and then growth again - I picked the Phoenix as my personal symbol. After reading about the Phoenix bird, I realized that it was even more appropriate then I originally thought, since we had more in common than just "dying" and being "reborn."
This year is an Octave change for me and it is going to be my best yet! I learned so much the last few years, I feel like a new person already.
If I may give advice, you should still spend some time playing golf - after all - all work and no play isn't as much fun!
Plus, you can use your abilities to manipulate energy and become the next world's golf champion and combine work and play!
Speaking of work - I better get back at it.
Please, tell us more about the Octaves of life, too - I am now fascinated by the subject.
Thanks for sharing your wisdom and have a fabulous day.
Marilyn
Thanks Burt. I have always suspected that many of my dreams were more than just subconcious imaginations. I have even with met you a couple of times in dreams. Unfortunately, I don't recall the details of our conversations. I am sure they're still in my head somewhere helping me grow.
You said you were hoping to create more programs in the coming octave, later you said that the "Octaves" is a vast subject. Maybe you should make a new program about them, that is if there is benefit in it.
God Bless You
Hello Burt. I was fascinated by your discussion of life octaves. It was totally new to me. Q question please - perhaps a subject for next week. I have read about Kriya meditation, taught by Realization Fellowship. Would you please share with us that technique.
Keep up the good work. I look forward to your Friday videos. In love and light,
Betty in Davis, California
Please remove me from your mailling list.
Thanks.

Hi Judith, please try again now!

Dear Burt, what a disappointment - really look forward to your video each week, and somehow today it is missing from the blog. You probably have had 100 others point this out, but just in case, I'm sending this along. I'll look forward to the re-send.
Thanks for the wonderful work you continue to do! Better and better and better. Judith in New Zealand
