Burt Goldman - The Secret Of The Parallel Self

In this long‑form episode of the Reality Revolution series, host Brian Scott chronicles the life and work of Burt Goldman, known as “the American Monk.” The narrative traces Goldman's origins in a Brooklyn tenement, his wartime service in Korea where he met a mystic, his subsequent study with Paramahansa Yogananda, and his rise as the premier instructor of José Silva’s Silva Method. Merging Eastern meditation with the structured alpha‑state techniques of the Silva Method, Goldman created a system he called Parallel Dimension Quest, later popularized as “quantum jumping.” The episode explains the theoretical backdrop – the many‑worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics – and presents Goldman's claim that a meditating mind can access a parallel version of oneself that already possesses a desired skill or state. A detailed guided practice is delivered, walking listeners through alpha‑state descent, visualizing a transit door, meeting the twin self, merging with that self, and returning to act on the acquired qualities. Goldman's own late‑life achievements—painting over 200 canvases, winning a photography Hall of Fame, composing music, and authoring books—are presented as empirical evidence of the method’s power. The host also outlines Goldman's teaching philosophy of lightness, skepticism, repetition, and resonance, and concludes with promotional information about the Reality Revolution community, upcoming live events, and related online resources.

The Many Worlds Interpretation lives inside legitimate physics as one serious reading of the quantum equations. Burt's own leap that a meditating mind can reach across these branches and draw a skill from a parallel self lives in the domain of imagination, visualization, and meditation. Welcome to the Reality Revolution. I'm your host, Brian Scott. And we have a fantastic episode today. We're going to do a deep dive on Burt Goldman and the secret of the parallel self. In the spring of 1988, inside a classroom in Southern California, teacher made a claim so bold that the entire room decided to test him on the spot. He'd been speaking about skill. About the speed at which a human being learns, and about the strange truth that a person can master almost anything at almost any age, far faster than the schools ever promised. The students listened, and they pushed back. They wanted proof. One of them called out a single word: photography. A challenge formed in the air: become a photographer and do it within one week. The man accepting that dare had already passed his 60th birthday. He walked out of the room, bought a camera, and started pressing the shutter. 6 months later, his images hung inside the International Photography Hall of Fame beside the work of people who had poured entire lifetimes into the craft. His name was Bert Goldman. The world came to call him The American monk. And the method behind those 6 months, a method he would spend the rest of a very long life refining, teaching, improving on his own body and mind, sits at the center of everything I want to walk you through today. Stay with me because this story travels from a tenement in Brooklyn to a battlefield in Korea, from the ashrams of the yogi who carried the East to the West into a laboratory of the mind that produced one of the most curious self-development techniques of the last 100 years. By the end, the technique belongs to you. You will understand how it works, where it came from, and how to perform it tonight. Let me take you back to the beginning. Burt Goldman arrived on September 28th, 1927 in Brooklyn, New York. His father Harry sold goods for a living and wore out his shoes walking the city. Sadie, his mother, kept the home. Family lived inside the ordinary hum of working-class New York between the wars, a world of stoops, street games, of radios crackling through open windows on summer nights, of immigrant ambition pressed into small apartments. Restlessness marked the boy who grew up on those blocks, and the streets fed it daily. Brooklyn in those years taught a particular kind of education: quick wits, quick feet, and a hunger to become something larger than the corner you started on. Bird absorbed all of it. Bright and curious, he carried a mind that wandered toward the big questions even while his body played stickball in the alleys. Then the world tilted. The attack on Pearl Harbor pulled the United States into the Second World War, and a whole generation of young men found their futures rewritten in an afternoon. Bert came of age inside that turning. When the next conflict opened on the Korean Peninsula, he served, and the Army carried the Brooklyn boy across an ocean to a place that would redraw the entire map. of his life. War shaped him the way it shapes everyone who survives it. Yet the moment that mattered most happened away from the fighting, somewhere in Korea, far from home. Bert met a mystic. The details survive only in fragments, told across decades by Bert himself. Picture a young American soldier, oceans away from Brooklyn, crossing paths with a holy man, a figure schooled in the inner traditions of the East, someone who spoke of the mind the way an engineer speaks of a machine, with precision and confidence and the calm authority of a person who had tested every claim personally. That meeting opened a door inside Bert that stayed open for 70 years. Consciousness, the mystic explained, is something a person can train, direct, and deepen. He described states of mind beneath the ordinary waking chatter, quiet floors of awareness where perception sharpens, the body heals, and the imagination gathers a strange new authority. To a young man raised on Brooklyn pragmatism, these ideas arrived with the force of revelation. Bert left Korea carrying a question that would organize the rest of his existence: How far can a trained mind actually reach? Home looked the same when he returned. The streets had stayed put. His own face in the mirror had stayed familiar. Inside, though, a compass had swung toward a new magnetic north, and he set out to follow it. Back in the United States, the inner compass led Bert to one of the towering spiritual figures of the 20th century, Paramahansa Yogananda. Yogananda had traveled from India to America decades earlier and introduced an entire generation of Westerners to yoga, meditation, and the science of self-realization. His book Autobiography of a Yogi passed hand to hand across the country and around the globe, carried by seekers, artists, and inventors alike. Steve Jobs read it again and again across his lifetime and arranged for a copy to reach every guest at his own memorial. That single detail tells you the scale of Yogananda's work. Bert entered the orbit of Yogananda's organization, the Self-Realization Fellowship, and committed himself to the disciplined inner life of a monk. Hours of meditation filled his days. The breath, the spine, the subtle currents the yogis describe— he studied all of them. For a meaningful stretch of his youth, this Brooklyn native lived the life of renunciate inside a Western body and a New York temperament. His fellow students handed him the name that would follow him forever. Watching the New Yorker pursue the inner path with such sincerity, they began calling him the American Monk. The title fit perfectly. It captured the blend at the heart of the man— the worldly directness of Brooklyn fused with the contemplative depth of the East. A monk, yes, though one who would later wear a sport coat, crack jokes, and pick up a camera on a dare. Those monastery years built the foundation beneath everything that followed. Deep states the Korean mystic had described became familiar territory. Bert learned that the mind, taken below its surface noise, becomes a workshop, and he carried that knowledge straight into his next decisive encounter. During the 1960s, a self-taught researcher from Laredo, Texas, named Jose Silva began publishing a system that would ripple across the personal development world for generations. Silva had spent years studying the human mind, hypnosis, and brainwave states, working first with his own children and then with thousands of students. Out of that work, he built a structured, repeatable method for guiding a person into the alpha level, the relaxed, receptive brainwave state that sits between ordinary waking awareness and sleep, and for using that state deliberately to solve problems, improve health, sharpen intuition, and reshape behavior. The Silva Method spread across the globe. Millions of people moved through its courses, and among all the instructors who ever taught it, one rose to the very summit. Bert Goldman became Silva's protégé and in time the world's leading instructor of the Silva Method alongside José Silva himself. He co-authored a foundational text, The Silva Mind Control Method of Mental Dynamics, a book translated into more than 10 languages and read by seekers on every continent, city after city, country after country. Bert stood at the front of seminar rooms guiding ordinary people down into the alpha state and showing them what waited there. Here the 2 great streams of his life joined. From Yogananda came the ancient depth of the Eastern meditation. Silva contributed a modern, structured, almost technological approach to the mind, a step-by-step engineering of consciousness that any office worker, parent, or student could learn across a single weekend. Monk and mind scientist became one teacher. For more than 50 years, Bert improved the lives of the people who came to him. He called his techniques the lazy person's road to enlightenment, and he meant it as both a joke and a genuine claim because the deep states arrive through relaxation. Through ease, through a gentle descent rather than through strain. Burt mastered that descent completely. Then, well into the years when most people fold their hands and slow down, he used it to build a second life that astonished everyone who watched it. Picture a man approaching 80 years of age. The culture around him keeps script ready for such a person: a quiet decline, a narrowing of the days, a slow settling into memory, and routine. Burt Goldman read that script and chose a different one entirely. Painting came first. Working from his own meditative methods, self-taught and free of any classroom, he produced more than 200 canvases across roughly a decade. Galleries displayed them. Buyers carried more than 100 of them home. Burt pioneered a personal style he called energized art. Infusing each canvas with the same focused intention he had spent decades teaching others to cultivate, convinced that a painting could carry energy toward the person who received it, stirring action and healing in the one who hung it on a wall. Burt's one of the main influences I have for my own art. His art is amazing. Photography followed, born on this famous one-week dare and crowned by the Hall of Fame within months. An original approach took shape under his hands, a method he named Mirage Photography, building images that existed in his imagination before they existed on film. Music came later. He sat down at a piano in his 80s and taught himself to compose and play, crediting the skill to the same internal process, the very method he laid out for his students. Books kept arriving, programs kept taking shape, stages around the world kept welcoming him. Burt treated age as an invitation to begin again, and he repeated that invitation to anyone who would listen. Now, every teacher of mind power makes large promises. What set Burt apart was the evidence stacked beside him— the canvases, the framed photographs, the recorded music, the published books— all of it produced after 70. He had become his own laboratory, testing his ideas on the one subject he trusted most: Himself, while the results hung on the gallery wall for the public to examine. Behind every one of those achievements stood a single technique. For years, he had carried it under an earlier name, Parallel Dimension Quest, which he later simplified for the world. He's the one that called it quantum jumping. Word of Bert's second life spread well beyond his seminar rooms. In his final decade, he partnered with the online education company Mindvalley, and his teachings reached an audience in the millions across more than 100 countries. Students from every continent watched a man in his 80s paint, photograph, compose, and write, and they drew the plain encouragement from it: the capacity to grow and create run the full length of a human life. Burt leaned into the message with delight. He framed age as an open invitation, a doorway standing wide for anyone willing to walk through it. And he backed the claim with his own calendar. Past 80, he was launching programs, planning seminars, and sketching the next decade of projects. He spoke openly of the work he intended to create at 90, treating each birthday as a fresh starting line. His energized art carried the same spirit into the physical form. Bert had spent years teaching people to charge water and objects with focused intention, and he turned the same process toward his canvases, pouring deliberate energy into each painting, offering the finished work as something that could stir action and healing in whoever received it. Buyers responded, and his paintings traveled into the homes of his fans around the world. A warmth and a humor through how he carried all of it. Burt described his methods as the lazy person's road to enlightenment. Grinning at his own phrase, because the deep results he taught arrived through relaxation and play rather than struggle. He invited people to hold their goals lightly, to experiment, to treat the whole adventure of self-creation as a source of joy. That blend— serious depth wrapped in genuine lightness— became his signature, and it drew people toward him across the decades. Underneath the paintings, the photographs, the music, and the global following, set the single repeatable technique that produced them. Bert had built a clear, teachable path into the parallel self, and he wanted the whole world to walk it. Quantum jumping rests on a particular picture of reality, and here the Brooklyn pragmatist surprises you because he reached for the strangest frontier of modern physics to explain himself. In 1957, a young physicist named Hugh Everett proposed an interpretation of quantum mechanics that has occupied scientists ever since. The mathematics of the quantum world describes particles existing in multiple states at once, a shimmer of possibilities right up until the moment of measurement. Everett offered a radical reading of what happened at that moment. Rather than the possibilities collapsing into one, he suggested every possibility becomes real, each playing out in its own branch of reality. The universe forever divides into parallel versions of itself, a vast and growing tree of worlds. Physicists call it the many-worlds interpretation. Burch seized this idea and ran with it further than most physicists ever would, pointing to thinkers such as Michio Kaku, Neil Turok, and Alan Guth, scientists wrestling seriously with multiverse models. He drew a conclusion that thrilled him. If infinite parallel universes exist, then infinite versions of you exist as well. Sit with the size of that claim. Somewhere, the argument runs, a version of you mastered the violin as a child and plays in concert halls today. Elsewhere, another you built the business, wrote the book, healed the body, found the love, and gathered the wealth. Every path you once imagined taking, every talent you set aside, every dream you filed away for later— each one is being lived right now by a self who shares your face, your name, and your essential spark. A self who simply made different choices and walked a different road. Bert called that self your twin self, your doppelganger, the parallel you Who already holds the very thing you reach for. The many-worlds interpretation lives inside legitimate physics as one serious reading of the quantum equations. Bert's own leap, that a meditating mind can reach across these branches and draw a skill from a parallel self, lives in the domain of imagination, visualization, and meditation. Bert understood this clearly. He cheerfully described his own technique As a little wacky. He welcomed a light, experimental, even skeptical attitude in his students for a clear reason we will reach shortly. Whether the parallel selves exist as literal physical beings, or as living symbols generated by your own deep mind, or information in the quantum field, the practice produces the same effect. It hands your imagination a vivid, emotionally charged target, and it pulls your present self toward that target with steady, powerful force. Burt's Gallery walls make the practical case all on their own. The mechanism can stay a mystery while the realities stay real. Now, before we begin this practice together, sit for a moment with your own life, because the technique gathers its power from something already alive inside of you. Think back across your years. To the talents you once reached for and then set down. Perhaps a young version of you sang, drew, played the guitar, or wrote stories late into the night. Maybe you spoke of a business you would build, a country you would move to, an instrument you would learn, a body that you would train, a love you would find. Life filled with its demands, and many of those threads slipped quietly out of your hands. The dream stayed, though, folded and kept waiting in a drawer in the back of your mind. Burt's premise hands those dreams back to you. Each path you release, the argument runs, continued on its own in a parallel branch, carried forward by a version of you who kept singing, kept building, kept loving. That self holds the very life you once pictured and the longing you Feel even now the quiet pull toward a fuller version of yourself serves as your evidence and your compass at once, pointing straight toward a self who already exists. This reframes the whole experience of wanting. Desire shifts from a sign of lack into a signal of connection, a thread running between you and a self who already holds the prize. You feel drawn toward wealth because a wealthy you exists. The pull toward health, toward art, toward love arrives because each of those selves lives and breathes somewhere across the branches. Your reaching itself confirms the destination. Hold that understanding as we begin, because it changes how the practice feels. You travel towards someone real. And you gather from a self who knows you intimately and wishes you well, and you carry home gifts that belong to you all along, waiting in a life you can still choose to live. Let me show you how Bert did it. Every quantum jump begins in the same place: the alpha state. Bert described the mind at this stage as resting on a launch pad, gathered in poise, ready for travel. The descent into alpha forms the entire foundation of the practice. So we will build it slowly as well. Find a place where you can sit or lie in comfort, somewhere quiet enough to soften the outside world. Close your eyes. Allow your breath to lengthen on its own. Draw the air in slowly. Hold it for a gentle moment at the top. And release it even more slowly than you took it in. 3 or 4 of these long, easy breaths begin to shift your whole system toward calm. Keep going. Now, Bert borrowed a beautiful tool from the Silva tradition, the descending count. Picture the number 10, and as you see it, let your body relax more deeply. Move to 9 and feel relaxation pour down from the crown of your head into your face, softening the small muscles around your eyes. At 8, guide it into your neck and shoulders, those places that carry the day's tension. 7, and your arms grow heavy and warm. 6, and your chest opens. You're breathing free and slow. 5, and a wave of ease spreads through your stomach and your back. 4, and your hips and your legs and your knees release their hold. 3, 2, 1. And your feet, all the way to the tips of your toes, settle into stillness. Breathing slowly during this process, you now rest in a state of deep physical ease while your awareness stays clear and alert. This combination— a relaxed body paired with a wakeful mind— defines the alpha level. Athletes know it. As the zone. Artists call it flow. Meditators across every tradition have mapped it for thousands of years. Here, in this quiet floor of the mind, your imagination gains an authority it lacks in ordinary waking life. Pictures you build at this depth carry weight. Feelings you generate here sink deep. Your subconscious, which governs so much of your behavior, And your perception listens closely at this level. So rest here for a few moments and enjoy the calm. You stand on the launch pad now. The jump comes next. With your body still and your mind clear, build a doorway in your imagination. See it standing before you. Give it a shape, a color, a texture. A tall wooden door with an iron handle, sleek panel of light, simple frame standing Free in a field of soft mist. The form matters far less than the meaning you assign it. This is your transit door, your point of crossing the threshold between the life you live now and the parallel life where your twin self already thrives. Before you open it, grow clear about your destination. Choose one specific quality, skill, or state that you wish to draw into your life Bert always urged precision here because a vague wish produces a vague journey. Name it exactly. The confidence of a master speaker, perhaps, or the discipline of a finished writer, or the steady calm of a person in perfect health, or the warmth of a life surrounded by love. Hold one clear destination in your mind and let it shine on the far side of that door. Bright and certain. When you feel ready, Bert would count for you. 1, 2, 3. And on 3, the door opens. Step through, or leap through, whichever feels natural. Cross the threshold. You arrive now in the world of your twin self. On the other side of the door awaits a version of you who has already become the very thing you seek. Take a moment to find them. See the space they live in— their home, their studio, their office, their stage— wherever this parallel you spends the days. Notice the details. Soft light fills the room, objects surround them. Let the scene assemble itself. Allow it to arrive rather than forcing it. Bert often reminded his students that this is a waking dream, and a daydream flows best when you let it play. Now observe your twin self closely. Watch how they carry their body. Study the expressions on their face, the ease across their shoulders, the light in their eyes. Feel the atmosphere around them, the confidence, the peace, the mastery that radiates from a person that has already arrived Where you long to go. This self shares your deepest nature. The spark inside them is your spark. They simply walked a road you can still choose. Approach them. Speak with them if you wish. Bert encouraged a real conversation, so ask the questions that matter most to you. How did you achieve this? Which understanding still waits for me to grasp it? What filled your ordinary days? Which beliefs did you hold about yourself? Then grow quiet and receive the answers. They may arrive as words, as images, as a sudden knowing, as a feeling that washes through you. Welcome whatever comes and trust the material your deep mind offers here. Because it rises from part of you wiser than your daily thoughts. Spend as long as you like in this exchange. Your twin self has all the time in the world for you, and so do you. When you feel complete in your conversation, here arrives the heart of the entire technique, the moment of absorption. When you have watched and listened and gathered what you came for, Step toward your twin self and merge. Bert Goldman would recommend also that you place your tongue upon the roof of your mouth, something he called the baga. You walk into them, allow the two of you to become one. Their skills, their knowledge, their confidence, their very state of being flow into you and fill your body with a warm and living energy. We describe this as a kind of download. The abilities and And the wisdom of the parallel self integrating directly into your own consciousness. You feel it happen. You sense the mastery settling into your hands, your mind, your chest. Take on the posture of your twin self. Borrow their certainty. Let their accomplished, finished, fulfilled state become your own felt experience. Here and now, inside this deep level of mind, you're gathering the energy of a self who already holds the prize, and you are carrying that energy home. Stay in the fullness of the merge for as long as it serves you. Breathe it in, claim it. Every traveler comes home, and the return forms a real and necessary part of the practice. Turn back toward your transit door. Carry with you everything you gathered— the skills, the insight, the feeling, the energy of your twin self— all of it now part of you. Step back through the doorway into your own world, into this present reality, into the room where your body rests. Close the door gently behind you. Give yourself a few quiet moments to Let everything settle. Then count yourself gently upward from 1 to 5, allowing your awareness to brighten and your body to reawaken with each number. At 5, open your eyes, alert and refreshed, carrying the residue of the jump with you into your day. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Here Arrives the final essential step, the one Bert stressed above all others: act. Take the insight your twin self gave you and put it into motion in your actual life. Begin the small daily practice the parallel you described. Pick up the brush, write the page, make the call, take the walk, hold the fresh belief about yourself. The jump primes you, the action delivers you. The 2 work together, each amplifying the other. This technique lays the foundation for my future self technique, which I utilized many of the different modalities that Burt Goldman had developed to create a future self merge. It's really one of the most amazing technologies. I've utilized this technique to learn skills, I never thought I could learn. Working with my camera, art, music, you name it, you can acquire any skill by using this technique. Now let me ground this with 2 specific examples so the shape of the practice becomes vivid in your hands. Imagine you long for ease with money. You settle onto the launch pad. Descend through the count and build your transit door. On the far side, you place a version of yourself for whom wealth flows freely, a self who opens the mail with a smile, who gives generously, who moves through the day with the relaxed posture of a person whose needs are met many times over. You cross the threshold and find that self at a home in a life of abundance. Watch how they sit, how they breathe, how they speak about money with warmth rather than worry. Ask how they arrived here and listen closely. Then you merge, and then you feel your financial ease pour into your chest and settle there as a steady, grounded calm. You return, you open your eyes, and you carry that calm into a single concrete action. A budget reviewed with confidence, a bold offer sent, a a generous gift given freely. The feeling leads and the action follows. Now imagine you long for confidence before an audience. The same launch pad, the same count, same door. This time, on the far side stands the speaker you wish to be— easygoing on stage, delightful in the room, words arriving in perfect order. You study that self closely, feel the warmth they radiate a crowd and notice how their breath stays slow even with every eye upon them. Ask how they made peace with the spotlight. Then you merge, taking on their steadiness, their delight, their command. Back in your own day, you rehearse one talk from inside that borrowed certainty, and the certainty grows roots. Each journey follows the identical pattern. Relax, Cross, meet, merge. Agah. Return and act. The destination changes, the architecture holds firm. Now I want to share the subtler teachings Bert wove through the practice, because those refinements separate a casual experiment from a life-changing discipline. First, Bert urged a curious, playful lightness towards the outcome. This surprised many of his students who arrived gripping their desires with white knuckles. Bert taught a gentler grip. Hold the goal loosely. Treat each jump as an experiment worth running with genuine interest in the result, yet freedom from desperation about it. A real principle operates here: tension and craving constrict the mind while ease and openness expand it. Inside the meditative state, you release judgment and let images flow freely, and that very freedom allows the deeper material to surface. The lighter your hold, the more readily reality rearranges itself around your vision. Bert even welcomed a dash of skepticism in his students, precisely because a skeptic stays relaxed and holds the outcome loosely, and a relaxed mind quantum jumps with ease. Second, Bert taught repetition. He freely shared that he met his own twin self many times Before the full effect took hold. A single jump plants a seed. Repeated jumps grow into a tree. Return to your twin self again and again. Each visit deepens the connection, sharpens the imagery, and strengthens the fresh identity you are building. Make it a regular practice rather than a one-time event, and the results compound over weeks. Third, Bert's whole method rests on a principle The ancient teachers and the modern manifestors both describe— you experience the reality of who you are being. Bert sometimes pointed to the law of resonance, the idea that reality answers your state of being rather than your wishing. The universe responds to what you are, to the identity you carry, to the frequency you hold. Quantum jumping operates at exactly this level. It changes who you're being. You step through that door as a person who longs for mastery And you return as a person who embodies it. Wishing reaches toward the prize from a distance while being already holds it. That shift from longing into embodiment forms the true engine of the entire practice. Look back at Burt's own life through this lens. He stepped through the door and met the painter he could be, then returned and filled 2 100 canvases. Crossing again, he found the photographer and walked into the Hall of Fame. A third journey introduced him to the musician, and he sat down at the piano with fresh hands. Each time he changed who he was being, and his reality reorganized itself to match. The gallery walls testify to his methods, and so do the published books and the recorded music. I recommend every book that he wrote. They're fun to read, and you get a lot of his wisdom, all self-published. They're amazing. Set aside a moment the question of whether infinite physical worlds exist, because I know there are some of you that are still questioning whether or not that's real. The practice still reaches you, and it helps understand why. It doesn't have to be real. Your subconscious mind responds to vivid imagined experience. Much the way it responds to lived experience. A scene built in deep relaxation, rich with feeling and sensory detail, registers as real instruction to the deeper layers of the self. When you rehearse a skill in the alpha state, you lay down genuine pathways toward that skill. Embody confidence in imagination, and you train your nervous system in the felt sense of it. Then carry that training into the room. Athletes have used exactly this kind of mental rehearsal for generations. And the performance gains show up on the field and the court. Quantum jumping takes that established power of mental rehearsal and wraps it in a story that makes imagery effortless and emotionally alive. The twin self gives your mind a clear character to inhabit. A transit door lends the practice a ritual shape that signals depth and meaning, and the merge supplies an emotional climax that stamps the whole experience Into memory. Bert engineered a method that uses the imagination at full strength, and the multiverse framing simply makes the whole thing easy and joyful to perform. It's fun. You may hold the parallel worlds as literal truth, as living metaphorical truth, or as an open and delightful question, and the practice still serves you fully in every case. What I can tell you is I have experienced parallel selves. I've seen into those parallel worlds. I've seen them manifest in my own life. So I've experienced it, and there is nothing better than experience in understanding how it works. And you will understand how it works through the experience of this technique. Bert Goldman occupies a distinct place in the long lineage of teachers who explored the creative power of the mind. He's right up there with Neville Goddard, Joseph Murphy, you name it. He carried the meditative depth of the Eastern masters, learned directly from Yogananda, and joined it to the practical, systematic mind science of José Silva. Onto that foundation, he added the language of modern physics, drawing the multiverse into a meditation hall and giving seekers a fresh vocabulary for an ancient practice. The thread he worked runs through centuries of teaching. Mystics across many traditions described a single truth in their own words: the inner image shapes the outer life, and a mind trained to hold a vision with feeling begins to draw that vision into form. Teachers of the imagination spoke of living from the end, of assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled, of dwelling inside the reality you choose. Choose until it hardens into fact. Bert's twin self gives that timeless instruction a vivid new face, because the parallel you who already holds the prize is simply the wish fulfilled, walking and talking and ready to teach. Seen this way, quantum jumping joins a great river of human wisdom. It echoes the visualization of the athletes, the assumed identity of the actor who becomes the role, the future self a coach asks you to picture. The end state— the meditator rests inside. Bert gathered these currents, gave them a clear structure, wrapped them in the wonder of the multiverse, and handed the whole package to anyone willing to relax and imagine. He proved it on himself first. A man who paints 200 canvases, walks into a photography hall of fame, and composes music in his 9th decade has earned the right to describe the method. The lineage runs through him, and now, through this practice, it runs toward you. Bert Goldman lived to 92 years of age. He passed in May of 2020, having spent more than half a century guiding people into the quiet floors of their own minds. Behind him, he left a family, a library of books, a body of art, a catalog of recorded teachings, and a worldwide community of students who carry his work forward to this day. Including me. Consider the full arc of it. A boy from Brooklyn tenement, son of a traveling salesman, met a mystic on a Korean battlefield and resolved to discover how far a human mind could reach. Years at the feet of one of the great yogis of the age followed. Rising through the ranks of one of the most influential mind power systems ever devised, he became its foremost teacher. And then in the decades when the world expected him to fade, he reached across the boundaries of his own imagination and drew back the talent of selves he had only dreamed of being, making those dreams visible, frameable, audible, and real. That arc carries a message for larger than any single technique. Burt Goldman spent his life demonstrating one idea with his whole being: the self you long to become already lives inside the field of your own possibility. Fully formed, waiting for you to reach it. The painter, the writer, the healer, the lover, the wealthy, and the free version of you— each one stands on the other side of a door you can open whenever you choose to sit, breathe, descend, and cross. You hold that door now, along with the count, the threshold, the meeting, the merge, the return, and the daily action that seals it. The whole practice Belongs to you. The same practice that carried a Brooklyn boy into the Hall of Fame. A new jump waits for you now. Somewhere across that threshold, a version of you already lives the life you picture in your quietest, most honest moments. That self knows the way and has been waiting for a long while for your arrival. All that remains is for you to relax, build the door, and step through.

There's a version of your life where everything you've been reaching for arrives, where the money flows, Where love opens, where your body heals, where every step carries the frequency of the self you were always meant to be. That life exists, and the path to it has been 8 years in the making. This July, the Reality Revolution comes home to Anaheim. 3 full days of teaching, meditation, and timeline activation. 9 complete sessions designed to move you from the life you're living to the life that is waiting. Activate your pineal gland. Meet your higher self. Quantum jump into your greatest timeline. Enter the bliss body healing state. Step into the flow of large sums of money. Open fully to love. Shift into a higher density New Earth. Friday night, the community celebrates together. Saturday evening, a special appearance from Darryl Anka. And by Sunday evening, you walk out as the version of yourself your future self has been waiting for. I love— so I knew I had to be in the room because it's different from like listening to the meditation videos online. It was really getting into yourself and how you feel and your timelines. First time at the event and it really is, it's wonderful. So like I would highly recommend to anyone, if you get the opportunity to do it, absolutely do it. It really is amazing. The Reality Revolution live in Anaheim, July 24th, 25th, and 26th at the Hilton Anaheim. 3 days that will change the The trajectory of your life. Early bird pricing is available now.
