"Meditation Master Reveals Secrets of Natural Healing
That Anyone at Any Age
Can Easily Learn"

Dear Friends,

You've stumbled upon this site for a reason, perhaps a friend shared it with you, perhaps you found a link to it by sheer coincidence while searching for information about healing...

Whatever the reason - know this...the man you're about to meet and the contents of this site may have a dramatic influence on your life over the next few weeks.

My name is John Lake, I'm a prolific blogger, artist, and self-improvement and meditation 'junkie'. This site is my attempt to share with you my remarkable experiences and conversations with a man I met in Los Angeles in the summer of 2004.

His name is Burt Goldman—and his message is mind-blowing. Here I present to you…

My Lessons with Burt Goldman, The American Monk

Who is Burt Goldman? Let me tell you. In the last few years alone, Burt:

  • wrote several books and got one published
  • took up photography and got one of his works in the Oklahoma
  • Photography Hall of Fame
  • took up painting and set up an art website
  • thought himself to sing, too—and even released a CD
  • set up a new business

But here’s the amazing thing…

Burt just turned EIGHTY YEARS old.

At a time in life when most people in the Western world are alone, sick and miserable—or worse—long dead… Burt is going through a renaissance period of his life with no slowing down.

Is he some sort of science-fiction, super-human? Actually no, he’s just an ordinary man living in Los Angeles.

But Burt does have a one BIG secret…

He claims that he has learnt to focus his mind in such a way, that he’s able to slow down aging, pick up new skills at will, and maintain perfect health.

But how?

You see, for the last 50 years, Burt has been traveling the world and meeting and studying spiritual masters from every inch of our planet. He became a disciple of the great Yogananda, the legendary teacher who introduced Yoga to the West. He became the protege of Jose Silva, the Mexican-American, who introduced dynamic meditation to the Western World.

Now, at the age of 80, Burt is ready to share with the world what he’s learned. And I’m honored to be part of this sharing. His message is going to have a profound effect on how we live our lives in the modern world. I dare say—it could be earth shattering.

We’ll be using the Internet to broadcast Burt’s message to the world. In the video below, Burt explains what he’s going to give to the world.

skin lightener

Four years ago, Civant Skincare embarked on a business plan to develop Meladerm®, our most powerful skin product for dark skin spots, discolorations and hyperpigmentation. Not only was this formula meant to be effective, but also safe for normal use. Though the idea was simple enough, the research and development to create such a product was surprisingly extensive. Every possible factor was considered in creating Meladerm®. What ingredients should be used? How should they be applied? Even minute factors like, what kind of container will keep the ingredients fresh and active. To keep our formula up to date, our research team is constantly improving our product line with new innovations. Our current formula incorporates the latest trends in skin lightening and after four years of research and tests, we are proud to finally introduce our innovation to the world.

Civant Skincare puts your safety above anything else. Our products contain absolutely no hydroquinone, mercury, steroids or other harmful bleaching substances. In order to naturally fade the appearance of dark skin spots and obtain an even complexion, you must dedicate time and patience to the process. Results will vary based on your particular skin condition and the amount of sun exposure received. Initial improvement is often seen in just 2 weeks. Full results generally appear after 2-3 months of regular use.
When I was in high school and college I tanned my skin 4-5 times a week. Now that I am older I realize the horrible damages that sun does to a person's skin and I have completely stopped tanning. Unfortunately, because I had tanned so long my skin was a lot darker than I wanted it to be. I began using the Meladerm lotion, and the stubborn dark pigment of my skin has drastically become whiter over the past months! I will continue to use Meladerm until the damage of the sun is gone! Thank you. - Meghan

What is Meladerm® used for?

Meladerm® is generally used to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmented skin on the body or face. Many of our customers use the product to achieve a uniform skin tone by lightening uneven areas and dark spots. Our products can also be used to brighten the overall complexion by lightening sun damaged skin.

What makes Meladerm® so unique?


There are hundreds of skin lightening products already on the market. You may even see creams that contain the same active ingredients as Meladerm®. So what makes the Meladerm® formula so unique? Simply put, research!

Though a low grade skin whitening product might contain similar ingredients, it doesn't guarantee its effectiveness. In order to harness the true power of the active ingredients, great care must be taken when manufacturing the product. Light and air can easily deteriorate substances like Kojic Acid. Other ingredients must be carefully stored in vacuum desiccators in order to preserve their shelf life. Furthermore, the Civant team takes great effort to micronize and filter all of our active ingredients and extracts for superior efficiency. Most cheaper quality manufacturers do not take these precautions.

When creating a skin lightening product, the base ingredients are just as important as the active ones. It is important to choose proper carriers and liposomes to ensure that the active ingredients are absorbed deeply into the skin. It is also wise to include effective preservatives and moisturizers to ensure minimal skin irritation. Meladerm® contains the highest concentrations of active ingredients tolerated by the skin. The use of special base ingredients and high quality actives is what brings out the true effectiveness of the formula and sets us apart from other manufacturers.

How does Meladerm® work?

Your skin color comes from a natural pigment called melanin. Melanin pigment is synthesized in specialized cytoplasmic organelles called melanosomes Within the melanosome, the enzymatic conversion of the amino acid tyrosine to melanin is catalyzed by the enzyme tyrosinase. The melanosomes in darker portions of the skin are more active than those found in normal areas of the body. The ingredients found in our formula counter this process in multiple ways by dealing with not only the melanosomes, but also the enzyme tyrosinase. With the help of exfoliation agents, the initial lightening effects of the complex can be seen within 2 weeks.

Top 10 Proven Classified Ad Selling Tips To Guarantee A Successful Sale



It’s Spring Cleaning Time! The weather is getting warmer and it is time to dig through those closets, garages and storage areas and turn your unused items into cash! Traditionally, this is the busiest time of the year for classified advertising. Motor vehicles and recreational vehicles are especially big sellers during the warm weather. If you are considering selling, now is the time. Hundreds of potential buyers are out there reading the Sunday morning newspaper every week, so take advantage of the opportunity to sell your items. Below you will find some great tips to help you get the ball rolling.

1.PREPARE: Determine the items around your home that you no longer need. Once you have collected these items, confirm that they are in working order and in good selling condition. If items have been in storage for a long period of time, you may need to clean them up to make them more attractive to potential buyers.

2.RESEARCH: After all items are collected, do your research. Determine the value of your items and decide whether it would be worth you time and effort to place a classified ad. Some things will do well on their own while others may do better in a garage sale setting. If certain items do not have enough value to justify placing an advertisement and you are not interested in hosting a garage sale, donate these items to a local charity for a nice tax deduction.

3.WHERE TO ADVERTISE: Once you have the items sorted out, you need to decide the best method of advertising. Most items will do best advertised in your daily newspaper since you will be able to reach a local audience. Online classifieds generally do not receive as many local buyers, but most are free so you may want to place an ad there as well just to cover all the bases. If you are selling a larger item such as a car, motorcycle, motor home, etc., you will also want to place prominent for sale signs on the items themselves. You can also utilize bulletin boards in your local community to post a free advertisement.

4.DRAFTING YOUR AD: What are the most attractive selling features of your items for sale? Decide which of these features you want to highlight in your advertisement. Look for classified ads for similar items to get an idea of how they are written. Check out the competition to see how your item is better or different than the items that will be running along side your ad.

5.WRITING YOUR AD: Create a catchy title to get your reader’s attention. This will spark an interest in your classified ad. Always include the brand name when applicable. Price should only be included in the title if it is an obvious selling point. Next, you need to write the body text of your ad and entice buyers even further with the details. Make your description clear and factual. Provide specific details in what it is that makes your item stand out from the others. Be honest in your representation and do not make your item appear better than it actually is. Always include the price in your ad. Take some time to view other classified ads for similar items in your newspaper. This will help you determine a fair asking price for your item. Keep in mind, just because you paid $1,500 for your dining room set, does not mean you will receive that much for it on resale. Be realistic in your expectations. Furthermore, if you will only be available during certain times of the day to discuss your item, make a note of this in your advertisement so buyers know the best time to reach you. If possible, include your email address.

6.INCLUDING PHOTOS: A picture is worth a thousand words. Some local newspapers provide you with the option to include photos with your classified ad. Be sure to include the photos! When buyers have the opportunity to see an article for sale they have a higher degree of interest and are more likely to buy when they follow up by telephone or email to ask questions or to get more information. If your newspaper does not offer photos or the photo option is too expensive, you can use an online classified photo hosting service. Visit http://www.seethisitem.com for information on how to include free digital photos with your newspaper classified ad.

7.COMMUNICATING WITH BUYERS: Do your best to be available when customers call for information regarding your item. Be polite and helpful and answer all questions to the best of your knowledge.

8.SCHEDULING APPOINTMENTS: If you receive numerous calls for your item, be sure to space out the appointments so that you will have enough time to spend with each buyer and your appointments will not overlap. Safety tip: Whenever possible, have someone home with you when a buyer is coming over to look at your item. You really can never be too careful when dealing with people you have never met before.

9.NEGOTIATION: Decide before you negotiate, the lowest amount you will be willing to accept for your item. This will assure a smoother negotiation process.

10.PAYMENT: Never accept a check for your item. You should only accept cash or money orders. If a buyer decides they want the item, but they do not have cash on them, always take a deposit to hold the item until they are able to come back. Be sure to set a deadline for them to return with the balance due. Even though you have a deposit, do not stop showing your item since the deal is not final until you have the cash in your hand. If someone else is also interested, tell them you just received an offer, but you will be happy to take down their name and number in case the deal falls through. This will give you more options should the original buyer back out of the sale.

That’s it! Keep these selling tips in mind and you will be on the road to a successful sale. Take your time, be thorough and most of all have fun! If you follow the steps outlined above, you will be turning your unused items into cash in no time.
