Once you're up there, now what?!?

Well, the answer to the question just came from Lester Levenson’s friend, Stephen Seretan:

The Part of Releasing They Don’t Tell You About

by Steve Seretan

I know many of you are having trouble implementing the nuts and bolts of the Sedona Method to achieve your goals and get more money. I get emails every day. I am listening. I hear you.

I also know you read other teachers’ reports of how rosy it all gets when you release and how easy success is with it. And then you feel worse because that is not the case in your life. Then you begin to doubt the truth about the Sedona Method and releasing. You start to spiral down until you are in apathy. You don’t want to do anything anymore, including releasing on goals. Sound familiar?

I have been in that place many times. What is the cause of this experience and what can we do about it? It is caused by programs about the Sedona Method, releasing, and resistance, which is another program. Programs, past subconscious decisions, hold us back by convincing us of their viral message. We listen to these scripts over and over until we are certain they are true. We make a strong case for them. “Look, this is what happened. It is a fact.” “Can’t you see, it is true?” We argue for the limitation they tell us is real for some odd reason. Then we own the results of it. The “Law of Attraction” gives us what we hold in mind.

Now, I let you in on this and peeled off the time-dated stuff below. Mainly so that later I can simply have this top data as valuable.  Let me give you their pitch (which is a really good deal) and then I’ll tell you how this fits in…

This coming Sunday, June 6TH, and for 3 others, we will begin to dissect this issue that is not talked about much by other teachers. I will help find and word your programs about using KISS Releasing to achieve your goals even though they have been out of reach thus far. List 25+ beliefs that you have now about the Sedona Method and all else, and we will begin to whittle these down to viruses we can delete from your mind.

It is an exciting and rich endeavor that will pay off big. I promise. I will give some free phone time to anyone who registers before Sunday to help you with this.

How your own programs keep you from releasing (How this stuff works):

As you dissect the above, you can see the pure logic of it all.

1) We’ve collected all these thoughts, memories, and beliefs to set them all up as programs so we can still play this fascinating game called “Life”. (Although “Life” the board game is far less painful…)

2) Part of these are to keep you from running out of game. So you have counter-programs which are there just to argue that you shouldn’t keep on that route.

3) And then there are people who are hyper-critical and the first ones to label anything a “scam” – because their programs say that nothing ever works for anybody – that “the’re all agin’ me…”

OK?

Hope this helps.

Get Stephen’s book at www.LesterandMe.com and you might get some more help on these counter-progams – that is, if you’ll let yourself…

Our latest upcoming release, “Freedom Is — (period.)”

Larry Crane brings up a good point. Just got this email from him – and thought you’d be interested.

In “The Secret”, you’re told to let go in order to let the universe manifest it. However, no one in that DVD tells you exactly how to simply do that. Even Jack Canfield, whose quote on this I have above my desk, is a Sedona Method graduate – but if he told (or Hale Dwoskin – also in that DVD), it was edited out.

So, if you can’t let go, then you can’t get the Law of Attraction to work. Oops.

Here’s a question I’m hearing over and over from my subscribers…

The question goes something like this:
QUESTION: I’ve heard of something called “letting go” as the secret behind The Secret.  Can you tell me what “letting go” means and how it can help me attract financial abundance into my life?

That’s a great question.

It’s an extremely important one, too.

Because while keeping a positive state of mind does attract positive things into your life (including financial abundance) – many people have “hidden pockets” of counter beliefs about money in their subconscious mind.

And those counter beliefs override the positive intentions and goals.

What I’m saying is this:

It’s not what you consciously think about that you attract.

You attract what you subconsciously believe.

And that’s why many people who affirm, set financial goals and visualize having financial abundance – never HAVE the financial abundance they want.

See, although they are consciously focused on attracting financial abundance; subconsciously (outside their awareness) they have a “counter belief” that keeps them from having financial abundance.

A common counter belief is:  It’s just not possible to make $X without a lot of hard work.

And so they continue to struggle working hard to make money.

Which brings us to the topic of “letting go.”

As in “letting go” (or clearing) the subconscious counter beliefs about money (or anything else for that matter).

Once you “let go” (clear) your subconscious counter beliefs – you’ll naturally FEEL positive and naturally attract abundance into your life.

But how do you “let go”?

It’s easy…

You go to this website – and all will be revealed!

Our latest upcoming release, “Freedom Is — (period.)”

I got a copy of Goldman’s Quantum Jumping myself to do a real review of this. Since I get too much traffic on this, I decided to study this stuff out of curiosity only.

Burt is prolific and a trained presenter. He himself was trained during his 10+ years working for Jose Silva’s organization as one of their trainers. His recording with Laura Silva (while seeming a bit too promotional for their various products) does confirm that he was working with the Silva family. (As well as this picture from guidemind.com)

And there’s no reason to doubt what Burt tells of his own life or (mostly) what others tell you about him.

Is he a promoter? Sure. Does he use the same promotional methods that scammers do? Sure. All advertising and promotion is based on the same psychological urges which are programmed into all of us – until you kick over your own traces and learn what these are (and become truly scam-free.)

Most of what Goldman bases his work on is from the Silva Method, particularly Silva’s last work – Silva UltraMind Course. He also uses Emile Coue’s famous self-programming affirmation. Napoleon Hill and others were champions of Coue’s work. Of course, the limits of affirmations is overcome with the Silva Method. Same with using Silva’s “going to Level” before you visualize your Law of Attraction goals.

Separately, I’ve even credited that Silva technique with improving Lester Levenson’s releasing technique.

But by the same token, Levenson’s method also brings a greater efficiency to Silva techniques. (See link above.)

A third point Burt covers is what he calls the Bagha. This is not the secret technique which Burt says it is. Look up the action (not the word) of touching the tip of the tongue to the roof of the mouth, and you’ll see it’s a long standing technique of balancing Chi in the body, and a technique of Zen meditation.

See: http://www.altmd.com/Articles/Qi-Gong-Sitting-Meditation

and  http://www.tehutionline.com/newpage30.htm

What is different here is that Burt says you can program this to get benefits showing up in your life – much as finding a parking place, a good seat in a restaurant, or to “quantum jump”.  However, Jose Silva also did this with the “three-finger” technique (actually, thumb and first two fingers together) – which has an older Eastern term (Kubera-Mudra). And here’s a page which shows some of more than 100 mudras (hand positions) which can assist in various physical balancing for illnesses. And here’s one story of someone using this successfully.

Here’s Jose Silva telling what is in bonafide Silva training:

That’s a bit thick – and Laura Silva is doing a much more polished job these days. That’s modern marketing for you.

The key point to Goldman’s stuff is his “going to alpha level” and then using visualization and mental programming with the use of affirmations. Now, there are literally millions of successful Silva graduates, I don’t have to go into this here.

What Goldman has changed is what visualizations you do when reaching alpha. Here’s a simple description of the Silva method which tells the visualizations Silva suggested be used originally.

In Huna, many practitioners tell you to create a “garden” which you can use to visualize those things in your life which you need to improve. Correct the symbology in your dream garden and they correct in real life. Very powerful stuff, according to reports.

Here’s a recording from Pohaku of HunaTrainer from Archive.org:

Goldman is just introducing a different metaphor. You could as easily tell people to go to their local garage and envision their life as a car in that garage, asking their “mental mechanics” to fix what it wrong with it, or to install high performance after-market add-on’s in order to improve your success or take it to a new level. Seriously – it doesn’t matter what the image you hold, it’s just that you get into a stable meditative state and then re-program yourself via affirmations. Visualization just makes it more entertaining and fun.

Does this stuff work?

If you really want it to. Skeptics can’t get to first base on it. But they don’t intend to. They are critical of everything and it shows in their lives.

Is it a scam? Only as much as it is metaphysical and people have to prove it for themselves. It is entirely experiential and only works as you say it does.

What could make it fail? Your own thoughts and feelings. And here is where I would improve on what he does: use Levenson’s release technique to calm the mind and get the desires out of the way. As I’ve said, going to Level helps you release even deeper, which gets rid of what I’ve come to consider the actual underlying reasons you don’t have any success in your life – basic desires, which cause feelings, which cause your myriad thoughts.

The point is the same with all metaphysical stuff – you make it work or not.

What objections do I find? Same with all the over-promoted and over-hyped stuff. They appeal to the material needs of people, which are lower on the scale of Maslow’s hierarchy. What Burt doesn’t deal with – and at least 97% of all self-help guru’s do this – he doesn’t tell you to go all the way with this stuff and get rid of any need to have all that the world offers. Because when you take this last step, you will really find that anything and everything you think of will appear for you – in what seems a miracle to those around you. But to you, it’s a simple thought.

But we’ll save that for later days. Realize that people who only use metaphysics and meditation for material things will only inherit what the world can give. The world can’t give you freedom or peace of mind, since these already exist within. Again – that’s another subject for another time (and is actually a book in pre-release.)

So: get a copy of Burt’s stuff for yourself – or not. That’s my take on it.
