Alfred:
Hello everyone and welcome to GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE. This is the Padawan to the Modern Day Mystic himself, Alfred, and we're coming to you from Asheville, North Carolina. So a couple of announcements before we begin on our topic today - "The Law of Free Will". The first thing is the Newsletter is coming out soon, in the next couple of days, thanks to Mike who's taking over the responsibility of helping to get things organized...if that's ever possible...

Hans:
Laughing...

Alfred:
...with the law of free will and the universe just flowing the way it wants to flow. So if you haven't already, sign up for the Newsletter. And if you do sign up for the Newsletter or tell your friends to sign up for the Newsletter, they will get a free MP3 Audio Lesson from Hans. It's a very good one actually - from his original professional broadcasting career that was before me when he was back with those professional people. We won't say who...

Hans:
Is that B.A.?

Alfred:
Uhhh....

Hans:
Before Alfred?

Alfred:
Yes, B.A. Before Alfred. So tell your friends and also yourself if you have already signed up for the Newsletter get your free MP3 Audio Lesson. One of the things that will be on there is July 12th we'll be part of a Spiritual and Healing Fair in downtown Asheville, North Carolina at the Masonic Temple. Hopefully we'll put that in the Newsletter and post it to Facebook. We are having a final run-off, finalists, it's about 6 finalists for the Tag Line for GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE. For example, GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE - Are You Out of Your Mind? GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE - Wisdom for Your Soul. GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE - Enlightening the World. The second part is called the Tag Line. All we've had for years is GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE. So we're looking for the second part. If you go to Facebook, you can vote for your favorite Tag Line.

Hans:
Again I want to take the opportunity Alfred to thank everyone for the... sometimes I forget how much I'm loved. And I thank you all because it has a little something for me when I was under the weather. Alfred had me go to my webpage and read the comment section and the recommendations and I really had a hard time understanding who these people were talking about and of course it was me but I don't identify with that, I just identify that it's Spirit operating through me. So thank all of you for that and we look forward to seeing you, I like to say seeing you, well actually you will be seeing us. Alfred we are going to Video now is that correct? 

Alfred:
Yes.

Hans:
A man of few words. We will be going to Video. Please get yourself ready to be able to see this. Alfred real quick. How would people who that might intimidate, the sound of it, how is it different than the Audio for those who need to know?

Alfred:
You can see us.

Hans:
Yes, Alfred I understand that. How do they access it?

Alfred:
You click "Play".

Hans:
That's it?

Alfred:
That's it. Same thing. Click the link, it opens. Same thing.

Hans:
So there's no difference then? Because I've had a couple of my clients say: Well how do I access? I don't have the equipment to access Video. So...

Alfred:
Well find out. We'll see what happens. As far as I know it should be the same thing for everybody.

Hans:
So what I'm trying to get at is people will still go to the website and rather than it being in Audio it will be in Video?

Alfred:
Yes.

Hans:
Okay. What about the people who want to listen to it on iTunes?

Alfred:
We're still going to do the same thing. We're still going to release it to iTunes.

Hans:
Okay.

Alfred:
Which will be Audio only. So for some reason if you can't get...

Hans:
That's what I'm trying to get at.

Alfred:
If for some reason if you can't get the Video, just wait a day, around Sunday or Monday, it should be in iTunes and you can listen to the Audio.

Hans:
See there you are. See that's what I was trying to get to.

Alfred:
And the last announcement is we have 3 Winners on Facebook.

Hans:
Alfred I'd like to take this opportunity, and I know you want to join me in congratulating the winners on the Facebook Contest.

Alfred:
For "Share Hans King" - this is the first time that we've asked you all to "Share" Hans King's Quotes, Hans King's Events or the Radio Show and we've announced 3 Winners. And we're ever so proud of you all for participating and help spreading the word. Those people have been told that they won a Free Reading and we will be continuing this. So we're thinking of a new thing - “Random Acts of Kindness”. So if you just happen to "Share" we may just happen to pick you and reward you with something. It's a little more, shall we say, free flowing... (Laughing)

Hans:
That's wonderful. Congratulations.

Alfred:
So please just continue to “Share” Hans King's Quotes, Hans King Radio Show, or anything else on Facebook and we may just throw something your way now and then. We'll do that for awhile and see what happens. So I think that's it for announcements. And to discuss the topic of this week "The Law of Free Will" I present to you the Modern Day Mystic himself Hans Christian King.

Hans:
Hello everybody. I want to say to everyone thank you, thank you, thank you for all the wonderful emails...I used to say cards, but I guess they are cards. For all the wonderful emails, best wishes. It has just been a phenomenal response to my unfortunate condition. But it was impossible to talk without coughing. And even with this Show here I'm only able to hear out of my right ear. Which makes it difficult to modulate my voice, but Alfred says I'm doing as good a job as I possibly can so that's a good thing. And again, thank you everyone for your kindness. I was very, very moved and I love all of you.

I want to talk today about the Law of Free Will. "The Law of Free Will" is what we call a Universal Law. Remember how we've been working on the fact that we have that little meeting on the Other Side before we come back onto this side. Well a plan is laid out as to what you soul chooses to experience. And you busy yourself getting on with this. And although the lessons that you have asked to learn will in fact be presented to you, the answers will not be given to you. It is your job, through the Law of Free Will, to formulate a path that leads you to the answers you are seeking. In other words They will say: Yes, you have passed your driver's test and here is your driver's license. Now you wish to go to Minnesota from Orlando. There's an oxymoron for you... In other words, how you get to Minneapolis is the Law of Free Will. They will not tell you how to get there. They will support you in your choices. But I personally believe that the greatest gift that the universe ever gives us is the Law of Free Will. Which opens the door for all sorts of avenues for venues to accomplish and create what your soul has chosen to accomplish. So once again the Law of Free Will allows you to create who you are in this lifetime. Alfred, any comments on this?

Alfred:
Well it all starts with what you as an individual soul plan for your incarnation. Now as we were covering previously in Dharma and Karma, Free Will plays a "huge" part in your participation, your input, your determination of the things that you would like to experience and that includes the Karma that you had dealt with in a previous life and whether you want to deal with it in another incarnation. Part of your Dharma, the experiences that you wish to experience. What souls you wish to participate with those experiences, which soul mates you wish to participate in your next incarnation, your Guidance who is going to stay back and watch over you. All of those are aspects of Free Will that determine your life path - your Dharma, your Guidance, your Angels, your Helpers. When you're born, the time that you're born, what Astrological Sign, the types of skill sets that you're going to enjoy, the things that you're going to want to do, things that you want to make you happy are all part of Free Will, all part of things that you chose to participate in prior to incarnation.

Hans:
So as I said: You are given a list of what it is that you wish to accomplish. That is wrapped up in what is called your Dharma, based on your previous lives history. There are those on the Other Side, as we have oftentimes spoke of, who say they would like to help you - friends, relatives, loved ones. How you use them and how you get to where you want to go creates your Dharma. If you have a mind that says: I know I am on my right path. I know I am guided. By guided, Spirit makes the path sometimes less traveled more appealing. And the reason They do that with Free Will is oftentimes that path is the path that appears to be the darkest, appears to be the most difficult to get through. And yet all of those who love you on the Other Side are prepared, whenever they can, to jump in for whatever lesson you're learning at that time.

I want to talk just a moment about ill-health. It is very, very important my friends to remember that you do not have a cold. You do not have a lung infection. It came to visit your body, not who you are. Learning to separate yourself from the appearance of illness is one the three steps towards a total healing. So let's say you come down with what they say "the flu". Saying to "the flu": "I know you've come to visit my body but you may not have who I am" actually adds a healing energy. Once again here's Free Will in motion. Not succumbing to - but telling the illness how it's going to be. Okay? So Free Will, I think Alfred, is probably...if not the biggest, one of the biggest Laws of the Universe. 

Alfred:
Well even after you come down and you're incarnated and there's all the things that you've chosen for your life - the experiences, your soul mates, the Karma that you wish to deal with during this incarnation - still nothing is written in stone. These are things that you wish to experience but as Hans was saying "how" you wish to experience is completely up to you. Let's say, for example, Hans is talking about a road trip. Hans wants to go to Las Vegas. It's completely up to him whether he wants to take the highway, whether he wants to take the scenic route, whether he wants to take side roads, whether he wants to stop in Barstow overnight. All of those are Free Will. "How" you wish to have the experience. How long you're going to have the experience for. If you decide to get the lesson. All of those are still part of Free Will. So even though you've determined a large aspect of your life during the formation of your Dharma, when you still come down here every single moment to moment is still comprised of Free Will. Moment to moment you still have a choice. Spirit can present you with the experience that you wish to participate in and you can say: No. I choose to listen to my mind chatter. I choose to determine ego. I choose that money is more important.

Hans:
That's a very good point Alfred. I want to underline what you just said. That is a choice. Therefore Alfred people can't complain about it can they?

Alfred:
No. But that was the real eye awakener for me is that in "all" opportunities, experiences, whatever it is - you have a choice. There's so many of us that just got beat into us that there is one way, only one way. This is the way...

Hans:
And you have no choice.

Alfred:
...and you have no choice. This is the way it is. And then you follow Hans' teachings and realize: Oh, no matter what it is - you have a choice. For example, to be in pain. No, being in pain is a choice. You have a choice to deal with it, let go of the mind chatter that's causing the pain. Yes, doing the inner work is not the easiest, but it's a choice. You can live with the pain or you can do the inner work and let go of the pain. A lot of us didn't know that we could let go of the pain. So even the things that seem to be the most difficult when we're dealing with them you still have a choice as to how to deal with it and that's a huge part of the Law of Free Will.

Hans:
Now folks, sometimes...sometimes we feel that life hands us a very difficult set of circumstances and one of those circumstances is the word "loneliness". I'm lonely... Nobody loves me... I can't get the person I love to love me back the way I love them... If you'll stop for a moment and remember you have a choice to actually believe that information that you're providing to yourself - which is untrue. Or you can say: I'm the most loved person I have ever known because my god does not love anyone more in this world than me. And everyday I get to comb the hair of the greatest person I've ever known. Just look at your animals - how they respond when they see you. They see things in you that you don't see. Yes, sometimes in life there is the appearance of being alone. Why is that there? It's a lesson that your soul has chosen to learn about being enough. Not needing anyone or any circumstances and/or situation in order to be who you truly are. That just who you are to you is enough. So making yourself enough in the Law of Free Will...making yourself enough... I cannot kids tell you how important this is for Spirit to see this in you. My friend Alfred has been going through a difficult time with a situation that was not and is not of his making. But he's trying desperately, at the request of someone he loves very much, to rescue a rather bad situation for them. He can see himself accidentally starting to get involved with the minutia of it if you will, the complexity and all of that. He came to me yesterday and said: Oh no. No, no. No, no. I'm not going there. I'll lend all my energy to help where I can but I'm not becoming part of the situation. Therefore he's acting in Free Will. Saying: No, I will do the best I can for someone I love but I will not become part of the problem. Right Alfred?

Alfred:
That's a real tough one especially when it comes to family. Because so many of us think that - Oh, it's family. I have an obligation to my family... I have to deal with my family... I'm dedicated to my family... And something I realized is: No, I'm sorry. You're not. Those are the people who brought you into the world. They were, shall we say "contracted" to present you with certain experiences while you were growing up. You may have a history with them. But there is nothing that says just because they are your physical family that violates the law of Free Will.

Hans:
Well hold it right there. Let me ask you this question Alfred, on that note. Was there a time in this when you found yourself starting to slip into the old behavior of yesteryear?

Alfred:
It reminded me of the way things were and I made a choice to say: No. I'm not going to participate in that way, I'm not going to allow it to affect me in the way it used to. I made a choice not to, not only behave the old way, not have that energy into life...not have that negative vibration in my life...to let go of the outcome...to surrender the outcome and to invite Spirit to help whatever is for everybody's highest good. To treat them just like you treat any other soul.

Hans:
Yes. I think that's important that we learn that law of guilt. That guilt comes to us as a hangover from an earlier time in our life. It's your family, of course you're supposed to help them. You hear that? It's your family. Of course, yes. There's a difference children between helping and becoming part of the problem. That's why the old adage comes in: The road to Hell is simply paved with good intentions. I've watched Alfred absolutely navigate this within a week and a half's period - absolutely beautifully. Where I can faithfully say to you that would not have been possible 5 years ago in any way, shape or form.

Alfred:
Yes. If you can deal with unbelievably stressful family situations and smile, you know Hans King's teachings work.

Hans and Alfred:
Both Laughing...

Hans:
Well Bless you child. (Still laughing) Folks if you all knew what we were talking about you would laugh with us, okay? I want everyone to wish Alfred well during the next couple of weeks as he navigates... I'm going to call it "this minefield". So far we are seeing pretty good results in his caring and his loving, so... Alright Alfred I think because we have so many questions, because it's 2 weeks worth, I think I'm going to conclude the lesson here on this subject right now. And I want you all to bear with me. I'm trying to do the best I can. I am very capable with Spirit. I check with Them before I did the Show to see if I was capable of doing the lesson and They said: Yes. So I'd like to get on with that if I could, Alfred.

Alfred:
So before we get to our Member Questions, for those of you who may not know what it's like to be a Spiritual Circle Member - one of the Member Benefits is that at the end of the Show we read all questions that Spiritual Circle Members send in each week. It's basically like a Mini Reading. If you'd like to ask Hans questions each week, you can find out more about our Spiritual Unfoldment Circle by going to HansKing.com and under Spiritual Community you can find Spiritual Unfoldment Circle. And there it tells you about all the weekly benefits...all the benefits...not per each week, but you get them all the time. And how much it costs for the monthly fee to support the Show. We're ever so grateful for our Members for supporting the Show...

Hans:
And that is much appreciated because it's very much needed to keep the Show going.

Alfred:

However, you do not need to be a Spiritual Circle Member to listen. And many people have told us that they receive a lot of spiritual growth by listening to what other Spiritual Members are going through because they may be going through something that you're going through. So please continue to listen whether you're a Member or not.

“Being Peaceful” - by Hans Christian King 
REBROADCAST from JULY 2011
Spiritual Radio Show Transcription

GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE Radio Show

Topic: Being Peaceful
June 22, 2014





Alfred:
Hello everyone and welcome to MODERN DAY MYSTICISM with Hans Christian King. We're so glad you can join us and we hope you have a very peaceful evening because that is the topic of today's talk. Hans will be talking to you about "Being Peaceful". Without further ado, I present to you the Modern Day Mystic himself Hans Christian King.

Hans:
Good Evening everyone. How are you? Alfred and I are down in Puerto Vallarta and having a little bit of rain outside, so that's great. Tonight's topic is "Being Peaceful". You know you hear a lot about people saying: I wish I was peaceful. I probably get around 100 emails a day, on average, and I bet that one-half of them somewhere in their Prayer Request will say: I need to learn how to be peaceful. I want to bring peace into my life. I used to be a person with a peaceful nature but it's gone now and I don't know how to get it back. One of the things that helps you to become peaceful is not having judgments. When you no longer have a judgment - of anything - no matter what it is - you begin to bring a peace and a calm around you. When you work. as you've all heard me say so many times, with the mind chatter...when you finally conquer that little demon called the mind chatter, then there's a remarkable sense of peace that begins to descend upon you. Because it isn't so much all the appearance of the hectic freeways and airways and people running to and from and all of the arguing and bickering in society that makes you unpeaceful. It is actually your own being that tends to drown out your peaceful nature. For instance, do you have a judgment that something is wrong? Search your soul, search your heart on that one. Do you have a judgment that something is wrong? For most of you the answer will be: Yes. But what if you found out, my dear friends, that nothing was actually wrong?  Absolutely nothing. Only the way we perceive it. Only the way we run it through our own mind. Someone said to me recently: Well, how do I not have a judgment of it? I said: That it is, is sufficient. In other words - can you have a judgment of a tree or a flower? Can you actually have a judgment of another spirit in human form? No, you really can't. That's the humanness of it. That's the human side of us. And people point out sometimes they feel I become very simple and naive because I say these words. But these words don't come from me. These words comes from the Spirit. Spirit never looks at mankind and judges it by saying: There's something wrong. They simply see the angel in us and how are we responding to the conditions in our life. 

For instance, I'm just going to make this one up myself here - let's say that your partner says to you one day: You know I love you very much but this really just doesn't feel like it's really working for me and I need to look at an alternative. I think I need to be out of this relationship. Now the mind will go crazy. It'll start throwing out "why". Why are they doing this to me...I'm a good person...I love them...there must be something wrong with them...it couldn't possibly be me... And then it turns to - what if it is me? What if I'm not enough? What if I'm the one who's causing all this problem for my partner? Children it is what it is. Nothing is wrong, only your perception. Why would you want to be with someone who didn't think they wanted to be with you? It's simple - something is or it is not. I've been teaching you this for many years. There's no gray in Spirit. The situation either is or is not. I've taught you about the Buddhist tradition of looking at the flower over and over again. And one of the devotees said to Buddha: Master, he says, we fail to see the lesson in this. He said: That it "is" needs no explanation. So whatever the circumstances in your life at that moment - it is what it is. Also, it is in the process of moving past you. All pain, guilt, illness, is all in the process of moving through and past you. 

Now sometimes there are teachers out in our society who talk about learning to forgive. Spirit absolutely is adamant when I say to you: That is not true. There's nothing you need to forgive yourself for. Whatever you did was a reaction to a pain that occurred in your life - could have been now, could have been past. But Spirit only looks at the intention, never the deed. You don't need to forgive yourself. You don't need to forgive your parents. You don't need to forgive your children. You need to "be peaceful". Because all of those emotions that you went through were only memories and what if's and what could have been's passing through. We have books written, we have videos, CD's done on learning to forgive yourself. What makes you think you did anything wrong? It is your mind's perception children, not reality. When Spirit looks at you, when God looks at you, do you think that they have a perception of your actions? Do you think that you need to be forgiven by them for something you may have said or done? What kind of god are you praying to? The Spirit loves you unconditionally, period. All the guilt’s and the shame, all the anger and resentment, feeling of helplessness and loss are all coming out of your own perception in your own mind causing you to be not peaceful.

I had a friend named Solmy Satchidananda that you've heard me talk about before. Many of you know who he was. And he used to say: Do not allow anything to disturb you ease. Because when you disturb your ease you become dis-eased. You see? When you allow something to disturb your ease, your peace, you become unpeaceful and dis-eased. Then Spirit says: Oh no, oh no. No judgment - just wanting to hold you in that moment. Just wanting to say: It is of no consequence children. It serves no purpose. Learn from whatever from think. Learn whatever you feel to learn. We love you unconditionally in this moment - before, now, always, forever. It's that ongoing need to distract ourself from our peaceful place. It's that ongoing desire to hit ourself emotionally, to hurt ourself emotionally... Learning to be peaceful means dropping old perceptions about what is wrong, about forgiveness, knowing that you are One, in this moment, always have been, always will be One with the Great Spirit, with the Godforce. You and Spirit, you and God are in an eternal flow that has always been, is now and will always be. 

You cannot have a judgment of others without hurting yourself. Others cannot have a judgment of you without hurting themselves. Looking beyond the anger and the resentment and the sadness of what was and looking at the possibility in  just this moment that what you do have is peace. “Learning to be peaceful changes your perception.” "Change your perception, change your life" as somebody has written. I love that. "Change your perception, change your life." Being peaceful means not reacting to thoughts of others. We have a saying in metaphysics that sounds very cruel...and it's not meant to, but it says: Not my problem. When someone is bringing you all kinds of their anger, all kinds of their dysfunctional life, their victimization of themselves, all this - you have to turn to them and say: I love you, but this is not my problem. In other words, don't disturb my ease because you are dis-eased. Find your ease, find your peace, but don't bring that into my life. People say: But where's the compassion? There is an enormous difference children, between compassion and being dis-eased. You can have all the compassion you want by saying to Spirit: Please take this one and where they are right now - surround them in pure white golden light - help them to see what this is about for them, whatever lesson may be in this for them. Help them to find their way. Help them to be able to see what they need to see. You can do that and still say: Not my problem. All teachings in the end come down to one word: Love. And in love there is peace, there is bliss. 

I'm watching this debacle being carried out in Washington. All these political people disturbing the ease of millions of good and decent people...who depend on the government to survive. Older people, younger people, students, pensioners. All of this is being done for political purposes. There's absolutely no good in any of it except political gain for next year's election. Our government needs to become peaceful. Will that happen? Most likely not in my lifetime. Perhaps in yours. But you can make yourself a peaceful being by watching the way the way your mind perceives your condition. If you have lost a job, if you are in foreclosure on your house and you sit in a quiet place and you say: I know I am not these things. I know this fear of lack, the fear I'll be thrown in the street, I know these are fears being generated by my own consciousness. I know that I sit in God's lap of abundance. And whatever is to be for me will arrive and that's where I will go. Sometimes our perception is we need this house or we need that car or we need this job or we need another thing. But the Spirit knows what is best for us. In my life all things have happened so far that have affected people in this recession. And a wise lady named Alexandra said to me: And what would you teach others in this? I would say: This is not my problem. I am peaceful. Then she said: Son, you have no problems. We have been taught to view appearances as reality - but that's not true. Before this show started I went out on my front deck and I was watching the rain and the wind and in that moment I was with the rain and the wind. I was peaceful in that moment because I gave myself permission to be peaceful in that moment. If you are not peaceful because you're afraid financially, Spirit hears you, God hears you. Surround yourself in the vision of white light of abundance. Knowing that Spirit is your source. Spirit will find a way for you. 

We always marvel how some people, through the worst of times, some people through the darkest of what appears to be great challenges have managed to break through. There are members in this audience tonight, in our Spiritual Circle, that I know of who are sleeping... There are people that I know of tonight who, in appearance, are losing their homes. I will tell you what I told them. Remember it's only in the moment. Watch and see as you surrender this appearance to Spirit and say: I have done all I can do with this issue, please take it and do that which is best for me. I choose peace. I choose to be be peaceful. I will not be torn apart. You know folks, when hurricane Andrew hit South Florida...do you know where the safest place of a hurricane is? In the middle of it. So when all things are being ripped apart on one side of the street, on the other side of the street there is peace. In the middle of all that's going on in your life, no matter how violent the winds may be, the appearances may be, the fear factor...no matter how high the fear factor is, if you say to Spirit: I choose peace. I choose to be peaceful in the middle of all that because I know my source is not affected by the appearance of the wind. My source is perfect always and I sit in that safe place. It is phenomenal how people's lives begin to change when they discover a peaceful place in their soul.

I was talking to a gentleman once in an airport and we were talking a little bit about this matter. I said: So you hate to fly? He said: I absolutely hate to fly. I'm literally Hans, terrified to fly. I said: Okay. How do you do it? He said: I have a safe place I go to that will last as long as the flight. And he said: And in that place I'm not in an airplane. I said: Where are you? He said: I'm on a lovely tropical island sitting with a cold beer, like in the Corona commercials, and looking out over the water...all I know is I'm peaceful. When the plane lands I jolt back out of my safe place, he said. And I get up and get off the flight just as quickly as I can. 

Folks, in my experience of being in human form - this is the worst calamity I have ever seen our nation go through. Yet in the middle of all this, there are people making money, there are people getting married, there are people having children, there are people finding bliss, and happiness. Take a page from this statement: "You ain't see nothing yet". Because it's true. This that's happening...this...I'm just going to say just what it is - this terrible mess that our country got itself into was not visited upon the United States, it was caused by the United States...caused. Other nations are now coming out of the recession and we're going further into it. Why? Because they knew they had to make sacrifices. We're not willing to do that as a society. But you can add to your sense of abundance, you can add to your sense of well being, by finding a peaceful place. Now if you don't have a place in your home, find a place in your heart. "Know" you're going to have shelter, "know" you're going to have food, "know" you're going to have transportation... You may not know "how", but "know a way will be found”- “always" and you will pass through this temporary condition and turn around one day and say: Peace got me through. Worrying and crying and fussing and calling your friends and being a victim and all this stuff will do nothing but grow the pain. And will continue to make you dis-eased. By taking yourself and saying to Spirit again: "I have done all I can do with this. Please take this and do that which is best for me, to my highest good always". Watch and see what happens children. It's the most phenomenal thing.


I was saying to a dear friend of mine today: You know there's so many things that come out every year or two years - some new teaching, some new way of being...but they always come and then they go. But there is one teaching that doesn't have to arrive because it has always been here...and it never leaves under any condition - and that's called "peace". Peacefulness. Knowing that you and Spirit are the same. Knowing you're not a victim. That a way will be found. It may challenge your being, but a way will be found to get you through this, out of this, and onto incredible new possibilities you don't even know exist right now because your mind is so caught up in telling you what was going to happen to you...what is happening to you...what did happen to you. So please, please know that Spirit is waiting for you to say: “I'm ready to be peaceful. I'm ready to allow myself to be who I truly am which is a loving spirit in human form. Draw to me all the doors that I might look to see where I would like to take my experience of being a spirit in human form”. And it is kids absolutely remarkable as to what begins to show up for you.

Topic: Being Spiritual in a Human Form
June 14, 2014



Alfred:
Hello everyone and welcome to GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE. This is Alfred the Padawan to the Modern Day Mystic himself who is right next to me. First a few announcements as usual. You know that we're back in Asheville and July 12th we're going to be part of a Spiritual Conference that's happening at the Masonic Temple. We just got the latest information in and we'll be posting that to Facebook as well as our Announcements under "The Spiritual Community" on HansKing.com. Second, on Facebook we just finished our first contest of "Share Hans and Get Your Friends To Like" and we'll be announcing the winner for that coming up on Facebook in the next couple of days once we tally all of the people who have shared and gotten their friends to "Like" us. Third is we've got a lot of appearances for Hans that are coming up during the next couple of weeks so please check our Newsletter. Yes, we know there's a couple of broken links but we're doing our best to work on that. We do the the best we can do that's it. Our intention is to be of service so we love that you're sticking with us and hopefully we're being of service. So that’s it for the announcements.

Hans:
Now Alfred we forgot on little thing that I'd like to bring up. And that is that you wanted...and I know you're going to get embarrassed, but you asked me to remind you to thank all the wonderful people who sent you Birthday Wishes. (Hans Laughing)

Alfred:
Yes, Thank You everyone who sent me birthday wishes. That was very kind of you all.

Hans:
There were a bunch of them so we thank you for that.

Alfred:
I tend not to think about myself when we're focusing on the Radio Show.

Hans:
I know...I know.

Alfred:
It's one of those rare times.

Hans:
But you'll say to me later: Oh why didn't you tell me? I forgot. So...

Alfred:
Today's topic - "Being Spiritual in a Human World" was presented to us by one of our Spiritual Circle Members - Susanna in England. And if you have a topic you'd like to share with us that we'd like to talk about on Air, you can message us on Facebook or you can send it to us via HansKing.com. So again today's topic sent in to us from one of our Spiritual Circle Members - "Being Spiritual in a Human World" and to further explain I present to you the Modern Day Mystic himself Hans Christian King.

Hans:
Good afternoon everybody. Wonderful to be back with you. This is a wonderful topic. Many years ago I was reminded of something that I had heard when I was a very young boy and it went like this: Somewhere in the Bible, The Christ is reported to have said: "Learn to be in the Earth but not of it". Wow, that sounds so simple doesn't it? Learn to be in the world...I'll just be spiritual but I won't be a... Well, you know as we go down the path, we find ourselves - since we're angels in human form - we wind up wondering how we got caught up in the appearance of our existence. In other words - reacting. Constantly reacting to things that occur around us. Something someone says or something at work or a disgruntled client or a colleague says something or your mom calls or your dad tells you he's disappointed in you - these types of things. So years ago I attached a little statement to those things that come up in life and the statement was: Not my problem. So being spiritual in a human world, in a human existence, means not reacting to the appearance of difficulty. Knowing that you are perfectly safe, knowing that what needs to happen for you will happen for you. What you need to learn will be presented for you to learn. You can look at that two ways. Number one, you can say: Oh, here's another lesson I think I'll learn that or you can say: Why me? Why do I have to go through this pain? You see what I'm saying? So if you separate yourself from the 'humanness of you'...remember what we've told you - that the body is just a cloak that we wear. That our soul - the essence of our being - remains sacred to Spirit. So when we're trying to be spiritual in a human world it means - who's our old nemesis - mind chatter! It means we make a deliberate attempt not to listen to the mind chatter. Alfred...and listen when I tell you this is not pre-rehearsed - I just sort of give Alfred these things and he looks like a deer in the headlights. Alfred when you were coming out of a very difficult first part of your life when did you notice that there was a separation between your spiritual being and the human world you were involved in?

Alfred:
It's what a lot of us do is we get dragged between the two worlds. In one moment we're happy and blissful and connected and in the other moment we feel that we're getting dragged either through the media, peer pressure, emphasis on money...it's really easy to lose yourself. It's 'what should I be following'? You know, following what's on the media, following what your friends do, following what your parents are telling you seems to be so much easier in the short run than following spiritual principles.

Hans:
Yes, that's very true.

Alfred:
And that's why we're really trying to focus this session on what practices should you focus on to be spiritual in a human world. What things are more important? There are, as you know, hundreds of different spiritual practices. But when you're getting torn back and forth and you don't know which direction to go in then here's some clues.

Hans:
Well you know Alfred, with all the media, peer pressure and the emphasis on money it's really easy to get lost. How do you deal with that?

Alfred:
Well the question is - what do you do? And should you become a chameleon?  Should you blend in? And that's one of the main things that we're trying to emphasis and we're actually reflecting back on what we were talking about in the previous topic is: Your job, in the enlightened path, is to find your own unique individual path. If you're becoming a chameleon and trying to blend in then you're bowing down to peer pressure, you're bowing down to whatever it is around you instead of following your uniqueness. Okay? And so when you're looking at it and say: Okay, you know, I want friends, I want money, I want my job, I want people to like me...

Hans:
Stop...stop for just a second. You just hit on something really, really important - "I want people to like me". Expound upon that for us will you?

Alfred:
It's a human desire to have people like you...

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
... It's a human desire to fit it. It's a human desire to have friends. And what we're telling you is there's two ways to go about it. You can go about it by say being a chameleon and trying to be all Mr. or Ms. popular or you can go the spiritual path which is: You know what, it's my job as a spiritual being in a human body to find my unique path and when I follow that path then people of like vibration, of like mind-set, of like being will be attracted to me. "That which you are you attract". So that's the hard choice. It really is.

Hans:
Yes, it certainly is.

Alfred:
Is to first follow on your spiritual path then wait for those like vibration beings to be attracted to you "or" to just give in and follow what seems to be the easier of the two paths.

Hans:
Alfred, sometimes individuals who are very spiritual have a difficult time in attracting friendships because they tend to see past the illusion and then there's a sense of loneliness that comes. How do you think people who you think are very sensitive and who are very spiritual how can they feel that they're loved as much as people who have lots of friends do you suppose?

Alfred:
Well that goes back to the lesson of self esteem. You are loved, you are enough, you don't need these external things that everybody tells you you need. You don't need to be popular, you don't need to have a bunch of friends. What you need to do is "find who you are". That is a spiritual path. And then once you find out who you are, once you become centered, then you can go out into the world and find true friends according to who you really are. So you can find friends according to your image, according to your ego, according to peer pressure - or you can find yourself and then find your true friends.

Hans:
Excellent...excellent. Because the reason I brought that up Alfred is I have lots of clients who will say to me: I don't feel comfortable Hans in groups of people. I don't feel comfortable with having too many people around me. But then they equate that to: Maybe God doesn't love me or maybe there's something the matter with me and that type of thing... But I like the way you put things. I think it's important for people to remember that they're never alone. That they always have their Guides around them. They always have helpers, they always have friends. So being a spiritual person in a human world...sometimes you feel like you're disconnected from what they call 'reality'. Sometimes very spiritual people don't wind up with a lot or an abundance of friendships. And the question I had for you is that when you were making that transition to having a lot of human friends to having spiritual friends did you feel lonely in that transition between the two? Because I remember it took a little while before you got more friends.

Alfred:
Yes, it's a really difficult transition because what happens is that you end up leaving so many of what you thought were friends who really were acquaintances in a human sense and then working with the Universe, working with your Guidance, working with your Soul Mates, working with your Angels, working with the Universal Energy and that becomes your path. That becomes your source.  That becomes your comfort. It is a completely different mind set about what is important. And it reminds me something that I tell a lot of my clients is: The friends that you've always looked for, the ever supportive, always loving compassionate family that you've always looked for, the support you've always looked for, is always there but you have to give up the human attachment in order to get the truly supportive, truly compassionate, truly loving ability to connect with Spirit, with the Universe is you can't have both. It's really difficult to hold onto your human friends, to hold onto your humanness...

Hans:
And there's nothing the matter with those friends, Alfred.

Alfred:
Well it depends if they are of like vibration or not.

Hans:
They simply don't fit.

Alfred:
Yes. So in some sense there is a little bit of a problem because they may be dragging you down. They may be trying to trying to deal with you on a peer pressure basis and a lot of times you're giving up friends left and right and what's left? Dealing with invisible people you can't see that you're having faith, trust and belief that they really do exist.

Hans:
Right. Well put.

Alfred:
That is a very difficult transition.

Hans:
Well put. What practices should you focus on to be spiritual in the human world? This was part of the original question sent in by Susanna in England. What practice? Faith and belief that you already are enough. That Spirit, in it's infinite wisdom, is in the process of drawing to you all the lessons that you have chosen to learn. But they're also drawing to you all the possibilities of learning those lessons. They don't just say: Here's a piece of paper with a whole bunch of stuff on it, deal with it. No, they don't do that. They present you with the lesson, a repetitive thing that keeps coming up in your life over and over and over. But they also present you with the spiritual answer that if you be still and say to Spirit: I am now available to understand the purpose in this lesson. You will hear, very shortly, a very quiet sound coming from your spiritual being through your chest. Then you say: Aah, I was wondering about that. Maybe that's what the lesson is. What's the greatest lesson for old souls - always children - self esteem. So many, many things will be presented to you under the guise of self esteem and how you handle those directly relates to your spiritual character. So practicing spirituality in the humanness of your life opens the door for the lessons, opens the door to clear the path that you see better, opens the door to let you come away from victimizations of the lesson. It opens a whole new set of being. So practice - love, acceptance, compassion. And those things right there - practice them on yourself first. Okay? Alfred.

Alfred:
And that's a really good thing to focus on. If you're going to be focusing on something it's self esteem: I am enough. I am perfect. So that it gives you the strength, the inner strength to make the right decision, to go the path that you know that's right, to go against peer pressure, to go against the grain of what you see everybody else going towards. To go against what maybe some life long friends are telling you, to go against what your family is telling you and to go "with" the direction of what you feel inside to be correct. That really requires some self esteem. That requires some self confidence. That what you're feeling inside is really the right path “for” you.

Hans:
That is tough Alfred. That is tough. Another question Alfred, should you practice energetic boundaries? For many people Alfred energetic boundaries sounds very complicated. It really isn't. I'm sure you know that right?

Alfred:
Yes and this is something that we talk about in the Intuitive Development Class is the more spiritual you become, the more you become sensitive to the vibrations of others. And as we've been talking about there's a lot of things that are not going to be of like vibration as you go down your spiritual path. And in order to deal with those things sometimes you have to deal with people or situations that you really don't think are of like vibration. You can feel the negativity, you can feel the negative energy. Then we say: Protect yourself energetically. You're not blocking the person, you're not having a judgment of the person. You're just saying: I'm putting up an energetic boundary around me so that negative vibration, that negative energy just doesn't affect me as I become more spiritual. It's helping you stay centered. It's really helping you adjust to your new way of being and it's a wonderful practice to help in that adjustment as you go from being human to being much more spiritual in a human world.

Hans:
Well, absolutely. And one of the things that I taught Alfred early days was learning to put that invisible bubble around you. That invisible white light. So that...one of the things I always say is tell Spirit: To please bring light into that that might bring darkness around you today. Darkness could be somebody else's 'thinking' that is counter productive to you, it could be the news, it could be any sense of small - like depression, your own mind chatter. "Please bring light into that that would bring darkness around me today". And just picture that little thin energetic wall being put up around you. It keeps you in the mix but it becomes once again "learning to be in the world but not of it". Alfred this is a good one. How can you have compassion for others but still stay on track with oneself? I believe those are two entirely different issues. You can always practice compassion for others by having no judgment of them. By whatever you see they're doing, whatever they're saying, whatever they're saying to you or to others, whatever it is - so long as you send them compassion. I don't judge you, bless you. I say "to bless you" I don't know how many times a day. But you can still stay on the track with one's self. Alfred?

Alfred:
Staying on track with oneself is absolutely the most important thing. Staying true to your unique path, your Guidance, being in touch with the Universe, being centered, being peaceful, having non-judgment, realizing nothing's wrong, keeping your vibration high - that is absolutely the first and foremost what you should be focusing on. And then while you're in that peaceful place, yes, you can have compassion for others - for what they're going through. But first of all realizing there is nothing wrong with what they're going through. There are a great many people in the world going through a great many things that are on unique paths that have asked to experience very unique things. Your job is not to have a judgment. If there's no judgment it really shouldn't sway you. That's one of the topics that we've gone over many, many times is having no judgment, having no opinion of what's going on. However, when you see suffering, when you see pain, when you see agony, absolutely you can have compassion for people to try to understand what's going on to determine if you should be involved in trying to alleviate the pain and suffering that is going on. And if not, you're not going to get involved, then there's no reason you shouldn't bless the person. So compassion really shouldn't take you off of your center. Always you want to be in your center before going out to serve, to make sure you are connected, you are who you truly are, your Guidance is with you. So make sure when you see pain and suffering in the world that you first go to your center and make sure that there is no judgment of the situation, you have no opinion of what's going on and from that point, I think, is a good start to have compassion for what's going on around you. So Hans what do you think about being a chameleon in a human world?

Hans:

Well I think what's really important for people to understand is they don't have to be a chameleon. What they have to do is 'don't fit in to dysfunction'. Make yourself unique. Make yourself different. Chameleons blend into their surroundings so nobody will see them, so nobody will know that they're there. They hide from the appearance of physical reality. What I'm saying to everyone is: Let your light shine. Let your spiritual light shine. Learn to be in the world but not of it. Carve your own path in life and people will say: Wow, you've got a really great life. If you listen to the questions from so many of our wonderful people, you can hear them as they struggle while learning to be in the world but not of it. But what Spirit continues to look at is: Have you set your intention? And so they don't look at the deed, they still look at the intention. So don't be a chameleon. Blend in but don't become "of it". You can walk through the world but you don't have to come of the world. Okay? So being spiritual in a human world means opening yourself up to all the uniqueness that is inherent in your spiritual being. Alfred I think that will conclude the lesson for today.

Topic: What Is Enlightenment
June 6, 2014

Alfred:
Yes. Our job is to be of service. We're not here to make money. 

(Alfred and Hans Laughing)

Hans:
And that's born out so far so that's a good thing.

Alfred:
We're still doing okay so thanks for being there and listening to us. So again this is Alfred the young Padawan Learner to the Modern Day Mystic himself and we have a very enlightened topic today. This was sent in from two different people. One was our good friend from Colorado who sent in a question about this last night and also our newly indoctrinated youngling Esperanza in San Francisco. The topic of today is "What Is Enlightenment". So without further ado I present the Modern Day Mystic himself Hans Christian King.

Hans:
Good afternoon everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome. What a subject. What a topic. "What Is Enlightenment". Wow. One of the most asked questions in the human scene is: What “is” enlightenment? Enlightenment comes in several different ways on several different paths. I believe, and my Guidance confirms because they told me - that enlightenment is the unburdening of the human scene. The letting go of the appearance of what your mind perceives as reality. Seeing past judgments, seeing past fear, seeing past confusion and doubt to simply "being". When you learn how to "be in the moment", then you stop seeking after what you don't understand and you accept: Aah, I am simply here and that is all there is for now. So enlightenment is the unburdening of perception. It's the lack, the absence if you will, of mind chatter. When you unburden yourself one drop at a time, you can feel enlightenment beginning to take hold. Alfred any comments so far on what we're talking about?

Alfred:
Well I'm going to give a couple of light examples of what enlightenment is. And if you just look at the word - the first one enlightenment - I like to look at it to "become lighter". And what happens every time you have an epiphany, you have an Ah-Ha moment, you have a breakthrough, you let something go... You feel "lighter", okay. And the second thing is, we had an example a couple of times we told you about protecting yourself, creating mind chatter is like: It rains I'm going to hold up an umbrella. Oh, it rains I'm going to hold up an umbrella. It rains, I'm going to hold up an umbrella. Why don't I just leave the umbrella up and then you wonder where did the sun go? Why isn't there any sun? Why doesn't the sun shine on me? So by letting go of your umbrella that's protecting you, by letting go of those things that protect you you let the “light” in. So those are my two examples of enlightenment. So I've got a good question for you Hans.

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
And this is something I thought about when I was first starting. 

Hans:
Um hm-mm.

Alfred:
Our people had asked us: Is enlightenment a destination or is it a spiritual awakening process?

Hans:
Aaahhh. Enlightenment is never a destination. It is a “happening”. Because each person enlightens themselves hopefully in their lifetime a bit differently. Spirit tells me that the lesson of enlightenment is the path "to" enlightenment. It's the recognition if you will of what is keeping you burdened, what's keeping you down, what's weighing on you. So the unburdening of “yourself” is the attempt of your soul to literally "lighten" or "enlighten" yourself. So it's not so much Alfred the destination in this case as it is the journey of awareness.

Alfred:
I like to actually think of enlightenment as the very first time you say: There has to be something else. There has to be something more. And you start looking for something more and then when you first hit that very first thing and you say: Aaaaahhhh, Whoa, that's pretty cool! That's at the point where I think your enlightenment journey begins and that you become more enlightened as you continue on this path of doing the inner work and letting go. So on the question of is enlightenment an end point or is the journey of awakening, I think we both agree that it's the beginning of awakening, it is the journey of awakening, it is the process of awakening.

Hans:
To strive to want to become enlightened is in fact an enlightening moment. Because it sets an intention. We are so, Alfred, caught up in the appearance of the drama of our human scene that we actually whenever the light tries to shine into us we block it off. We say: Oh well you know I don't know about that. You know this sounds too complicated and my drama is real because I can feel that it's real. I know some of you, my dear friends out there, have been planting your garden and planting your yard for the summer and fall and getting excited about your plants. I put my tomato cages up today, I actually installed 3 little tomato bushes which are now ten times the size they were when I put them in. And this year I'm not going to have an expectation of them. I'm going to just tell them to do whatever makes you feel best. And I want you all to do the same thing to yourself. Stop setting all these expectations of enlightenment and just do one day at a time. And in that day find one thing that weighs heavily on your heart, just one thing, a memory perhaps, a sense of not being heard, a sense of frustration. Now just take that one thing and say to Spirit: I choose to enlightenment myself today by disengaging from this thought any longer. Alfred?

Alfred:
And that's a good example of trying to help people...one of the main issues of spirituality verses humanness is you can't approach spirituality the way you approach humanness. Humanness is all about attaining, getting, accomplishing and one of the questions that was sent in was: What does it mean to attain enlightenment? And what we're trying to tell you is you don't attain enlightenment. It never finishes...

Hans:
No.

Alfred:
...it is the journey.

Hans:
This is why I removed the term “destination” Alfred.

Alfred:
Okay. So in terms of what does it mean to attain enlightenment, it doesn't. It means that you have “begun” to awaken, you have “begun” to do the inner work, you are on a path of “enlightenment”, you are on an “enlightened path” and every time you go back to the Other Side you're going to review how you do on that “enlightened path”. But what we're trying to tell you is...okay, unless you're Hans King...

Hans:
Hey watch it...

Alfred:
...you really don't attain enlightenment. Again one of the most basic spiritual practices is that it's not about the destination, it's about the journey. And that has to do with enlightenment also. It's about the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. And it is about that journey, how you carry yourself. So that’s our view on attaining enlightenment. And another question is: Can you tell when you “are” enlightened? What do you think about that Hans?

Hans:
I think that's wonderful. What does it mean to attain enlightenment? It means not to worry anymore. Not to keep setting expectations of things that you simply don't know. That's hard. That's not easy to do. We have this deep seated human needs for things to show up in our expectation so that we can prove that God loves us so we can prove that we're on the right track. Enlightenment comes from a quiet knowing. All is well. I'm on my path. Regardless of how I perceive the path to be, my god knows I'm on the path. Just before Maya Angelou passed away two weeks ago she had emailed two days before and talked about perhaps we need to stop looking outwards and we needed to start looking inwards. And that perhaps if we did that we just might meet and find ourself. This is what I'm trying to say. Enlightenment is not something Alfred where you turn a certain corner and there are banners and headlines and bands and whistles and all of these things. No, no, no. There's no reward at the top of the mountain. It was, like you were saying, it was the “process of letting go of what doesn’t work for you anymore”. And fear and doubt for you very old souls, and I've talked to most of you, so you very old souls remember something: That you're not alone. No matter what your thinking may say to you. Walk in the light towards the light. For those of you who are putting in a garden like I am, remember something – you're  giving life to something - be with that life. And as the plants, the flowers begin to prosper, grow, bloom and produce fruit, so will you. Okay?

Alfred:
And the biggest question Hans everybody's been asking is: Is there a path to enlightenment? And I think people maybe just don't understand the words because explaining God in human terms is rather difficult... 

Hans:
Well you can't actually do it.

Alfred:
You can't really do that. But basically the path to enlightenment, your enlightenment journey is assisted by what we teach you every single week. What others teach you.

Hans:
And anything we keep pounding them on the head with.

Alfred:
The basics as we like to call it, any of the lessons that we give you give you help you on your personal journey...

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
...on your personal spiritual path.

Hans:
So is there a path to enlightenment? Yes, learning how to just “be”. Now that's not the answer you want most of you. I understand that. Learning to shut off the mind chatter which is constantly running with judgment, perception, anger, resentment, fear, doubt, all of these things - shut that off. Simply shut them off. That is enlightenment. Having no judgment of other people is enlightenment. Actually hearing the wind in the trees is enlightenment. Learning to love yourself is enlightenment. Each and every one of you can get to that place of enlightenment by simply learning: You already are enough for God. You see? Sometimes we're going about our daily life and a friend says: Oh, I hear there's this great movie over here. And you say: Okay, well let's go to the movie. And you go to the movie, you get all involved in the movie, and the scenes and the acting and all of that... But is that who you are, the movie? No. You get up, put your coat on, go back outside into your daily life. This is what you do when you come here. Is you come here to watch a movie of which you participate in. But is it who you are? No. Who you are is that baby angel I've been talking to you about for many, many years. That's who you are. That's who God sees. And that God that loves you so holds no judgment of you whatsoever. So enlightenment comes from learning how to be, learning to be still, and listen to the love...witness the love of who you are in your own heart. Yes, Mr. Alfred.

Alfred:
There are many teachers that take many, many different paths to help you understand what is a path to enlightenment. And the first thing we try to emphasis, we believe everybody should emphasis, that your path to enlightenment is going to be different than anyone else's path to enlightenment.

Hans:
Yes, emphasize that again.

Alfred:
Okay. Your unique path to enlightenment is going to be different than anyone else's. Why? Because your dharma, your path in life is comprised of all of your other lives, all of your karma, all of your experiences in this life. Everything you wanted to experience, the individual people that you wanted to experience them with. Yes, everybody's a human soul having a human experience but “what” you wanted to experience and how you wanted to experience it, and the lessons you wanted to learn, and the experiences that you wanted to have while down here are unique to you. Thus your specific path to enlightenment is going to be unique to you. And that's why we like to say: We'll help as much as we possibly can but please feel free to look up other methods, other teachers, so you can find what works for you and our teachings. Find the specific teachings that work for you.

Hans:
It's like going to a Chinese Restaurant Alfred. Ordering something out of Column A, Column B.

Alfred:
Um hmm.

Hans:
But remember, no teacher, that includes me, no teacher holds all you need to hear. That's impossible. But what they do have is the wisdom of their experience, their connection with Spirit, their connection with God, and what they know works for them. And if this helps you, wonderful. But remember, every teacher no matter who they are, has a limit. And they themselves are busy enlightening themselves. And the more they enlighten themselves the more they can share with you. I have been on this path now as you know for in excess of 55 years so I have been blessed to be on a path that has served me very well, allowed me to serve others. But, as Alfred says we also recommend that you look beyond our limitations if you find something that's important to you, add it to your repertoire of understanding. I think that's the way to go. Mr. Alfred?

Alfred:
And taking that into account here's a good question: How does the lesson of self esteem help you on your enlightened path?

Hans:
Oh, Alfred it's enormous. Very good. I don't know who sent that in but that's great.

Alfred:
Okay and Hans has been talking about with old souls that one of their primary lessons is self esteem. Hans what's your opinion on self esteem and an individual's spiritual path?

Hans:
Well as I've often said to you Alfred and to the audience, all old souls primary lesson is self esteem or the value of their own soul. Understanding that is one thing. Living it is something entirely different. Self esteem, being and accepting that you are the best you can possibly be already, that no experience is going to make you a better person to Spirit. You will have your own enlightenment journey but that's a separate process. Self esteem - being equal to the value of your own soul - is key in enlightenment. Because once you accept you as being the primary source of enlightenment in your life, you are that source of enlightenment. In other words, when you seek you will find, always. So allowing yourself to love yourself, to accept yourself...I want to say jumps you light years ahead in your enlightenment process. Becoming enough is very important Alfred.

Alfred:
And it really is important because we're going to try to emphasis to you that no two paths are the same which means when you start your spiritual journey, when you start your path to enlightenment, you may find yourself many times alone on a unique path with possibly no other people around you.

Hans:
Yes, isn't that wonderful...

Alfred:
So you may have other spiritual people around you but your unique path may from time to time take you to places where you are alone. And if you learn the lesson or are working on the lesson of self esteem that you yourself are enough, that you have confidence in yourself, that you trust yourself, that you trust your Guidance, that is really going to help you on your unique path. So they actually go hand in hand. The further you go down the rabbit hole of enlightenment the further you're going to find yourself away from the norm, further on a unique path and relying on the strength of your soul, the confidence in your soul, and your trust, faith and belief in God.

Hans:
So in other words, the more you let go, the more you refuse to listen to the mind chatter... I did something the other day folks, please find the humor in it. But the Fox Channel at MSNBC, my radio and my TV are very close to each other and often I will bounce back and forth for about a half hour listening to the rhetoric on both sides. And I have to say this to you: There's a lot of anger in this world. A lot of frustration. But if you watch that type of thing, you literally pollute your own mind. We're going to be dealing with this in another show about mind pollution. Learning not to put your mind to the task of trying to understand something that doesn't make any sense in the first place I think is very important. Alright Alfred I think that concludes the lesson for today unless you have any parting words of wisdom.

Alfred:
No, that's it for now. I think this is a wonderful topic...

Hans:
It is indeed...

Alfred:
...to help people understand.

Hans:

And I thank Alfred everybody who helped with these issues. Thank you Nancy and of course another lady in San Francisco, she helped with these, Esperanza. So I thank both of you for bringing these to our attention.
