Topic: Receiving Guidance From Your Angels
December 14, 2013
Alfred:
Hello everyone and welcome to Guidance For Your Life. Yes, this is Alfred the Padawan to The Modern Day Mystic Himself, Hans Christian King. Today's topic is "Receiving Guidance from your Angels". But before we dive into the topic like we normally do, we decided to take a little bit of time and explain to you how this topic of “Receiving Guidance” fits into all we've been talking about. Which is: “Letting Go of Pain”, “Letting Go of Suffering” and “How to Receive Joy”. What do these topics have to do with “Receiving Guidance from your Angels”? The whole purpose of all of these topics has to do with the holiday season, of course. Being joyful, letting go of pain...All of this has to do with helping you enjoy the holiday season. Not just with your relatives. Not just with your friends. But with all of your sacred relations. With your relationships, with your guidance, with your soul mates and of course with your family and with all of those souls that you've agreed to have relationships with. Whether they're in spirit form or whether they're in physical form. And Hans, a lot of this has to do with the simple fact that the more joyous and happy you are, not only do you feel happier, but the more in touch with yourself you are, the more in touch with everyone else you can be.
Hans:
Absolutely. And you know folks, joy and happiness are not something that belongs to someone else. They belong to you has well. And sometimes it's very hard to find joy and happiness in this modern day world of ours. What with the appearance of all the pressures, and all the craziness that goes on with the government...And who's running the country today and what's guiding the country today and is the country okay? Am I okay? What's going to happen to me? All these things that go through your mind. But I think if everyone can remember this one important factor: “You are not alone”. It will go a long ways towards helping you move into a new way of perceiving your life. And if you're able to change the way you look at things and use this holiday period as that time of introspection and going within and saying, you know what: Where am I unhappy? What part of me is not working? And a lot of times we'll find the appearance of the lack of recognition in the world. People don't seem to get us. People don't seem to know who we are. We seem to be invalidated at our work. Or a friend says something. All these things, all this mind chatter, this mumbo jumbo nonsense, none of which is true, none of which should affect the outcome of your life...You know Alfred, the Spirit said to me once: When they cry, we cry.
Alfred:
And that's a very interesting concept for you to understand is that your guidance, the people, the souls that watch over you are very close to you.
Hans:
Oh, yes.
Alfred:
You may not feel that they are. But in reality they really are very close to you and not only is being happy and letting go of pain, keys to leading a wonderful life but how many times have you heard or felt that because you or someone else was happy, that the people around them were happy? Well that's the same thing with your guidance. That if you're happy, then your guidance is happy.
Hans:
Right. And if you're sad, your angels weep with you.
Alfred:
Okay. And all of this has to do with our topic for today. We're just tying you into the previous few topics that we've been talking about. That “Receiving Guidance from your Angels” - communicating with those spirits that watch over you - has a lot to do with being happy and joyful.
Hans:
You know Alfred, joy and happiness really and truly are keys to allowing God into your life. I know that you have personally walked down that path before. How did you reach the place where suddenly you had an awareness that you weren't alone? That you really were being guided and you had assistance from the Spirit?
Alfred:
That's a good question.
Hans:
I think it will help a lot of people at this time of the year. It's one of those "deer in the headlight" moments that I throw Alfred...
Alfred:
Oh, I just love these...
Hans:
(Chuckling) Yes, but great truth comes out of these.
Alfred:
I think the more you go within, the more you start letting go of illusions, perceptions, and opinions, the more you're able to see things clearly. And one of the things I was able to see more clearly is that when God had stepped in, in the early part of my life, and saved my beans, really saved my beans, and I didn't really connect the dots previously because everything was a big fog because I was in that state of life of focusing on industrial strength aspirin and pain relievers like so many people do when they're unhappy. Once you start letting go of anger, once you start letting go of trauma, then you start seeing: Oh my God, there was that time and there was this time where this miracle happened and that miracle happened and things just start clicking to say: Wow, they really have been walking with me. I've got a couple of pretty good examples if we have time later.
Hans:
When you reach a certain point in your life Alfred, where you're feeling slightly floaty or disconnected or you can touch a little sadness in your being....If you would just remember that all around you, every day, always are your angels or your guides as we call them, that have never left you from day one. Were with you before you entered this plane, are with you now, and will be with you once again when you depart this plane. But all during is incarnation their attempt is to try to help you into joy, and into happiness and to change your perception of what's going on for you in the moment. And that's why when I say: When you are sad, your angels weep with you. Not for you, but with you. Just like parents Alfred. God wants it's children to be happy and to play.
Alfred:
Yes. And this is a huge perception, a shift, that if you think of parents, what is going to make them happy? If their kids are happy, if their kids are living a wonderful life. There's nothing that they're going to do besides just look at their kids and say: Ah, isn't that cute? They're having fun, they're playing, they're being joyful. What parent wouldn't be happy just looking down at their kids saying: Oh, isn't that cool? They're happy. I have a happy kid! Here's a wonderful perspective that the other side looks at us and wants us to be happy in a very similar fashion. That they're actually looking, not down at us, but looking at us as simply children having experiences, new experiences, and they're looking at us saying: Oh, he's happy. Well, they smile with us.
Hans:
So, like parents, the Godforce is non-judgmental. They see us when we fall down. They see us when we surge forward. They're always there beside us. But one of the things they try to impart upon us is: What you're seeing, is that really real? What you're feeling, is that really real? And so this is why they ask you to look at life perhaps a little differently than what the normal everyday genre might bring to you. What's in it for you today? What can you learn today? And your parents are always there to help you do your homework... Yes, Mr. Alfred. "Deer in the headlights" moment once again"...
Alfred:
Our parents are always there to help us do our homework...
Hans:
Yes. In other words we have our lessons preset by us. But our parents are always there to help us with whatever that is, whatever that lesson might be. How to perceive that lesson in a different fashion. Or here are some tools that you can use that might help you in that perception of that lesson.
Alfred:
Aah, well there we go. And like most parents they want us to learn on our own.
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
Because the more you learn on your own, the more you'll be able to incorporate that into life. Here's a really good question: What does all of this have to do with communicating with the other side? Receiving guidance from your angels? Following up on what Hans just said, is that yes, just like parents, guidance is there to help us with our lessons, with our experiences. It is the feeling of joy, the feeling of bliss, happiness...That vibration is how Spirit leads us. That is how you simply can tell: Is this for me? Is this on my path? Is this according to my life path?
Hans:
Right.
Alfred:
Is Spirit agreeing with decision, this option?
Hans:
Right.
Alfred:
Okay, that is what is so important. That is a lot of the basis of our teachings for Intuitive Development...
Hans:
Alfred, what's the most common question asked by a child?
Alfred:
Why.
Hans:
There you go. So what you have is when you ask your parents something and maybe it's in your homework or your life's lesson, you can say: Why? And someone is there to explain it to you. And the closer you draw to the Spirit in joy and happiness, the clearer Alfred, the message becomes.
Alfred:
Absolutely. And for those of us who...Hans loves when I talk about this...We're not born with the ability to hear the other side the way Hans does.
Hans:
I was.
Alfred:
Yes, he was.
Hans:
So don't say "we're not" because that's not a true statement.
Alfred:
Yes, for those of us...
Hans:
Who are slightly handicapped...
(Hans chuckling)
Alfred:
...who are learning this ability how to receive guidance from the other side, we like to start with simple “Yes” or “No” answers.
Hans:
Absolutely.
Alfred:
Okay? And that's the start. And eventually yes, you will get more words. You will get sentences. You will get thoughts. But we're starting with a very basic topic here of, how about getting a simple “Yes” or “No” answer from the other side and then yes, it does evolve into much more complex... But quite simply, what we're trying to explain to you is, if you're saying: God please guide me, please help me make a decision, I could use your guidance and what you receive is a happy, joyous, blissful, peaceful energy, peaceful vibration, that is "Yes".
Hans:
Yes. Absolutely.
Alfred:
If you receive a stressful, weighty, difficult energy...
Hans:
A heaviness in other words...
Alfred:
...that's a "No" answer.
Hans:
But they can be taught this. And that's one of the things we do and think that's of enormous value Alfred.
Alfred:
Yes, it is. And that's why so much of the previous topics that we've been talking about have to do with “feelings”. Feeling bad, feeling good. We're saying feeling bad...
Hans:
I think that's why you say in your classes: And how does this feel?
Alfred:
Exactly. And literally these topics are little mini lessons that we teach in the larger classes. You know if you want to take the larger classes, great. This is a huge part of the Intuitive Development Class that we have for sale on hansking.com. It is our mainstay topic. It is the core of Hans' teachings. If you don't want to take our classes, that's completely fine too. We're of service to everyone and anyone. If you happen to have money to buy our classes, great. If you don't...
Hans:
If you don't, it's alright. We have so many free downloads Alfred. So much information is on the website.
Alfred:
We do. We have everything from $3 or $4 lessons up to a couple hundred dollar classes that will change your life.
Hans:
And we're soon to have some things out there for $1 or $2.
Alfred:
Oh yes, we're working on those. We've just found a huge box of Hans' original recordings from like 10 and 20 years ago and we're looking for help to take those tapes, cassette tapes...
Hans:
Remember those Alfred?
Alfred:
Yes, cassette tapes.
Hans:
I lived off those tapes.
Alfred:
I did too actually. I had a huge box of them I used to carry in the car.
Hans:
We had no idea what a CD was.
Alfred:
(Laughing) Anyway, we have a huge box of those and we're looking for a little bit of help to just clean those up and digitize them...
Hans:
Is that a "Hint", "Hint"?
Alfred:
“Hint”, “hint”. If anybody knows how to transfer...
Hans:
We could not run the practice or this show without the wonderful volunteers we have in place. It simply would not be possible.
Alfred:
So anyway, back to what we were talking about, all of these are little mini lessons of the classes that we have. And we're ever so grateful to be of service and get these out to everyone. But this is a core teaching of all of our classes that the feeling of joy is how Spirit leads us. If something makes you happy, then it probably is according to your life path. It probably is that the universe is guiding you. I mean this goes all the way back to the teachings of Joseph Campbell, Hans...
Hans:
Yes, that is correct.
Alfred:
...which is: Follow your bliss and the doors will open.
Hans:
Yes. And one of the things he also said is: Follow your bliss and the money will follow, Alfred. That when you get into bliss... Bliss is abundance, happiness is abundance, joy is abundance. These are all abundant emotions. They have an abundant energy attached to them. Alfred. And when people actually realize: Oh my goodness I do far better when I'm happy than when I'm sad. The sad energy denotes a difficulty in the vibration around you and you start to literally draw to you negativity. A lot of you, so many of our listeners, are what we call clair-sentient. And they actually are so sensitive to vibration that they pick up the events that are going on. It's like the stock market folks. All anybody has to do is whisper some negative news and it goes down. Craziness. So we do much better on the market in happy times just as you do much happier in your personal life finding a place of joy and peace.
Alfred:
So you might be thinking: What the heck does any this have to do with stress, being unhappy, say a weighty negative energy? Quite simply, that means it's probably the direction the universe is saying: No, we don't want you to go in that direction. So how is this different from what we were taught traditionally? Those of us who have a ridiculously amount of education or who follow the western ideal of stress is good, we're going to persevere, we're gonna push through this, we're gonna get through this... Maybe that's just not the direction you should be going. Maybe that stress, that negative energy that you should persevere and get through is... Just say: Maybe I should just stop. Maybe I just shouldn't do this. Not to say that anything and everything you're going to do...
Hans:
But don't you feel though Alfred, that for a lot of people turning loose of their control of how the outcome is going to come, is so scary that they almost can't do it?
Alfred:
Exactly. And one of the most basic spiritual teachings is: Surrender.
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
Surrender to the universe. Surrender. Let go and let God. I've seen a bunch of religious people have "Let Go and Let God" on bumper stickers on their car.
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
That is a basic spiritual teaching, to surrender...to let go.
Hans:
But boy is that ever... I mean once you get a clear understanding that you don't have to fix what you perceive the problem is, you can give the problem away and it gets fixed to your highest good. Once you really settle into that and you know how that universal law works, your life absolutely changes Alfred.
Alfred:
Absolutely. And that's a lot about our previous teachings that we started on, “Letting Go of Pain and Suffering”. Now we're saying: Let it go because that's the wrong direction.
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
If you want to focus on receiving communication, receiving guidance from the other side, you have to let go of basically anything that's stressful, weighty, negative. That negative energy, regardless of whether you understand it or not, because it is tapping into the vibration of joy and happiness that will allow you to be led, allows you to hear your guidance.
Hans:
Yes. Absolutely. So again, just like parents, the Godforce wants you to be happy. So you always, always have the fallback to happiness with belief. And doing what you love will also connect you to your spiritual support. I think that is very important for people to understand.
Alfred:
Yes, it is a little amazing when you find out that you were born with everything that you need. You were born with the tools, the skills, the abilities, to do what you wanted to do. And, if you wanted to know if God wants you to be happy or not, if you do something and it makes you happy, you can pretty much say: Yes!
Hans:
Yes, absolutely.
Alfred:
...this is according to my life path.
Hans:
And this feels good to me. This is how I would like to feel.
Alfred:
So by doing the things that make you happy, you're actually doing and experiencing are the things you wanted to do when you came down here.
Hans:
There you are.
Alfred:
That's your life path.
Hans:
Again folks, doing what you love, feeling what you love, doing it, will connect you to all the spiritual support that you have around you every single day, that has never gone anywhere.
Alfred:
This is a comical way to think about it is: If you're off your life path, Spirit will get whatever stick they can and start whacking you over the head...
Hans:
That's right...that's right.
Alfred:
...to whack you back in the general direction...
Hans:
I used to say to Spirit: Alfred's so stubborn you need a 2x4 to whack him over the head. Remember that?
Alfred:
Yes. And the farther off you get from your life path the harder they will try to hit you to get you back on your life path.
Hans:
Absolutely.
Alfred:
If you're a little off, you get a little nudge. If you were like me, then you get whacked really hard.
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
So, if you're getting whacked over the head and you're wondering why you're getting whacked, you might just stop and say: Hmm. But on the other hand, if you're on your path, you're doing what you love, if you're doing what makes you happy...
Hans:
If you're feeling connected.
Alfred:
...if you feel connected, then the universe is going to support you.
Hans:
Always.
Alfred:
They're going to give you a little shove and say: Yea! And cheer you on and give you energy and abundance and support you.
Hans:
You know Alfred, we're actually designed, if you will, to be happy. It's not something that's a stranger to us. We come into the world and yes we cry because there's such an enormous change in the atmosphere that has surrounded us. We were warm and cozy and now look, it's cold...and strange beings looking at us and taking pictures of us. But basically we're designed to be happy. I saw recently Alfred, it takes less muscles to smile and more muscles to frown. Isn't that interesting?
Alfred:
Yes. Because in our ever so wonderful western culture, we're taught stress is good, stress is your friend, be angry, I'm angry, you're angry, let's all be angry...
Hans:
I want everybody to understand Alfred that when we talk about western culture we do not say it in a derogatory fashion.
Alfred:
No...
Hans:
What I am saying to you and what Alfred is saying to you, is that in our life experiences, we are predisposed to fail. We are predisposed from the beginning of our life...we were told we have to work hard to be somebody. We teach you that what you already have is that divine connection with the angels, with the Godforce and that you can come here and experiment. Do all the things that make you happy...But the Christ put it very well when he said: Learn to be in the world, but not of it. And that is what Alfred and I teach.
Alfred:
We give you options.
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
We give you possibilities. We're not saying anybody's right or wrong. Everybody is where they are and where they should be. What we're saying is: Here's some options. Here's some possibilities.
Hans:
And we're saying: Here's what we know. And you know folks, as a teacher for many of you, I have been doing this work for over 56 years. And there is a certain theme that develops in your life when you've been teaching people something. You see how the Spirit, how the universe constantly re-designs the awareness of the teacher as society changes. So what we're giving you today may be 1000% opposite of what you were taught in school. And what we're saying is: If you're not happy, have a look at another tool. And you may find that the other tool brings you to happiness. It has with everyone I've ever known.
Alfred:
It's worked with me. And a lot of you know...
Hans:
You were no piece of cake Buddy, I'll tell you.
Alfred:
A lot of you know my background...
Hans:
Oh my goodness...
Alfred:
I spent a ridiculous amount of money to get that ridiculous education and I was, even though I was wildly successful, I was ungodly miserable. I'm like, okay, if I'm so successful as per western standards following the American Dream...
Hans:
I tell the story....
Alfred:
...why am I so miserable? And that's why I'm so fervent. What I'm really try to say, is this stuff works if you really try it. No, it's not going to be for everybody. Not everything is going to be for everybody. That's why we give it to you in little pieces to say: Here try this one, try that one, try this one. See if it works for you. See if it settles in for you. If not you can go back to the way you were. But we try to give it to you in bite size pieces so that you can just try this little thing into your life.
Hans:
You know Alfred, awhile back I had a client gentleman come to see me and he was railing about his fabulous education and he'd been to Princeton and he was a CEO of a company and he had, as far as he was concerned, become quite successful. And I just looked at him and said, "Sir, I'm very confused about something. If you're so happy, and you're so successful, what are you doing here"? And he paused, because he said, "I'm actually very miserable. My life isn't working. I have all of the trimmings but none of the substance. I have no substance in my life. My wife doesn't love me. My children don't like me." I said, "Why"? He said, "Because I'm never home. I'm too busy working to give them an education". I said, "They'd much rather have you. Give them the possibilities of you. Give your wife the possibilities of you". And he had the hardest time Alfred, trying to understand how all that he had been taught and all he had done had led him to an unhappy place.
Alfred:
Yes, and that's it. There is so much out there, whether you're talking to your friends, whether you're getting an education, whether you're watching television, that's says: Follow the American Dream and we're saying: No, there's options. There are other options. If you've followed that path and you're miserable, you're stressed, your kids are not happy with you, the wife is not happy with you, we're saying: Look, here's another option. Just try these things in your life.
Hans:
You know Alfred, one of our wonderful tools is called: “You Are Enough”. And what I love about "You Are Enough" is in the opening Spirit says: What if you woke up tomorrow morning and you found out that just who you are in this moment was enough for God? There was nothing you needed to do, nowhere you needed to go, nothing you needed to accomplish to be better than you already were. And that's such an alien concept don't you feel?
Alfred:
It is because we're always taught that you have to get more degrees. You have to get a better title. You have to earn more money. You have to have a newer car. You have to have a bigger house. You have to have a pretty or more handsome spouse because you have to keep up with the Jones'. You have to keep up with your appearance. You have to dress the part. I had to deal with that for so many years; you have to dress the part. And what we're saying is: No, you don't have to do all these things. You don't have to do what people tell you, we're telling you to go within and do what makes you feel happy...
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
...instead of going out there to find your happiness. To go within to find your happiness.
Hans:
You know Alfred, I had a client the other day and she said after listening to the show for about 3 months, her life had changed. And she said, her girlfriends asked her to go shopping with them. And this is something they do every year. And they hit between 30 and 40 stores. And they tear the clothes apart and they try things on. And she said suddenly she recalled saying to them, "You know, I think I want to go home". And the girl said, “Well why?” She said, “This doesn't do anything for me anymore. My children are at home with a babysitter and I'm out trying on clothes. My children will be grown shortly and what will they remember of me?” And she said she went home, she paid the babysitter and she asked the children what they wanted. And they said, “We want to go for some ice cream”. She said she had more fun on that trip with the kids, buying them ice cream, than all the times she'd ever spent shopping. Perception Alfred is everything.
Alfred:
Perception and connecting. Ready? Coming full circle, connecting to that natural flow, connecting to the universe, connecting to the universal energy...
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
...connecting to your guidance.
Hans:
Well you know Alfred, constant stress does mean: You're off your path.
Alfred:
And what we're trying to tell you is: Look for what comes natural. Go with the flow. And it is that flow, it is that positive energy, it is happiness, it is joy, that will tell you if you're on your life path. And then the universe will support that. If you just feel a natural high...Here's a good one: I was born to do this! Okay? Then you probably were born to do that.
Hans:
Absolutely.
Alfred:
But what we can tell you is that the mind chatter will come in and brutally tear that apart, about how you can't make money, how people are going to judge you, how that's not the right thing, how you weren't raised for that, what are people going to think about you. That's a whole other subject that we can't cover now that we have. We have about 20 or 25 different products on how to deal with that when it stops. All we can do is tell you that if you tie into something that makes you happy, that makes you joyous, you're in the flow of your life.
Hans:
Right. And you know Alfred, let's say that someone gets that. Okay. So they understand the process and they say to Spirit: You know, I wish now that you help me change my life path. This is what I would like to be doing. Unfortunately, the mind chatter tells them that it should start right away or fairly quickly. Because...well if it's true, that you can have what you want, shouldn't it happen right away? That is not the case. Because there's a lesson attached to the belief. It's called: Belief. In other words, once you make your commitment to you, and your life's path, do you believe it? Or are you just saying it? Now somebody may say to me: Hans, I wish to open a boutique in Acapulco, Mexico but I don't have any money right now. Okay. Now this is what the Spirit will say to you: Yes, you can. And yes that will work for you. But it takes just a little time children for them to put the mechanical energy in place that brings that possibility to you. But in the meantime, you can go on the internet, a great resource we never had in my day, and you can do research. You can look up stuff. You can look up neighborhoods. You can see where you'd like your little store to be. You can check housing rentals. All this stuff you can be doing as you believe enough to set the thought in motion. So doing what comes naturally does mean you're in the flow. Now believe it. Because when you're happy, your mind is at ease and you can hear God and that direction will open up for you.
Alfred:
And that is the direction that we're trying to take you towards. For thousands of years, all of the great masters have known, meditate, be peaceful, be joyful. Okay? Meditation is a true path to God. And what we're saying is: Absolutely, that is correct. Now do you need to meditate? No, not necessarily.
Hans:
No, not really.
Alfred:
All you need to do is be in a meditative state. What is a meditative state? A meditative state is being happy, being joyful.
Hans:
Well, it's a tool isn't it Alfred?
Alfred:
It's being peaceful. It is a tool. It is a way of being. And if you are that way, then it helps you be connected to God. And there was something the other day I was talking to Barbara about is enlightenment is not the end game; enlightenment is the first step.
Hans:
Yes.
Alfred:
Enlightenment means there is another way. I'm going to go down that path. So if you're enlightened, if you wake up, if any of this makes any sense to you, if any of this strikes you in your chest as saying: Wow! then you are beginning the journey of being enlightened. Then starts the journey.
Hans:
Before we go to questions Alfred, I'd like to take just a moment if I could please. Folks, I have been very blessed in my life to know many, many wonderful, wonderful people in service. But very few people have I met who have a connection with animals who can actually communicate with animals. Way back in the day when we had our own place, I had my own Center here, and we had a wonderful gal who would come down from Virginia and she would be completely booked for the entire time she was here. And I personally took my little dog Lu Lu and the woman was remarkable in her accuracy. I have found someone absolutely as good - and her name is Barbara Gargiulo. And I want to say to you, those of you who may be struggling with your animals, or may want to see where you animal is at, I would request that you would perhaps open yourself up to the possibility of meeting Barbara. She's absolutely, utterly remarkable when it comes to animals. I remember once there was something we were doing and she had a chat with the crows, and they had been squawking and carrying on for a long time, and they immediately stopped. She just has a gift with dogs, kitties...I haven't talked to her about goldfish yet, but if there's something that you need, we have a wonderful new resource here that I would highly encourage anyone that's having a struggle with their pet, or you may feel your pet is depressed, to send Alfred an email and we'll pass it along to her. Alright?
