He continued to search inward for the answers he was not finding from what he had been taught. Just trying to catch a glimpse of enlightenment, a spark to point him in the right direction. After a decade of searching, all of those dead ends lead to an open door. A life-changing and eye-opening moment of understanding how everything comes together in what cannot be described any other way except a “vision”. An understanding of how everything is connected. You can see the original diagram he drew immediately after having this experience, which is located at the bottom right of this page. He claims this diagram summarizes all of the many different shades of gray and how everything is indeed connected. You can read all of his insights in his book titled, Shades Of Gray: How God Works For All Religions, available on this site.

With a long-time interest in all things invisible and paranormal, he called into Coast To Coast AM with Art Bell (A world-famous radio show with 15 million listeners) shortly after experiencing his vision in 1997, where he shared his vision experience. This radio call quickly made him realize there are people who wanted to hear what he saw in his vision. Russ says “it was validation that what I was understanding was of interest to a lot of people.”

This spark set off a quest to dig deeper and understand his deepest spiritual nature. During Russ’s awakening,  he learned how to utilize his thoughts, emotions, and intentions to manifest. He says, manifesting is “more than positive affirmations”. It is utilizing all of our thoughts, intentions, and emotions in the right way, with the right energy. “There is a correct process, and through this vision experience, I was able to develop a formula, which when used properly can manifest almost anything in my life.”

He goes on to say, “I believe all religions are connected to the same source. I do believe in Christ, I do believe in Shiva, Buddha, The Tao, and others. If you ask me if I am “this”, my answer is yes. If you ask me if I am also “that”, I am also that. It’s all connected. Ultimately, we must come to understand there is only one of this thing, and we are it.”
