Topic: Being in Service

March 21, 2015

HANS:

Hello everyone. Today's topic is "Being in Service." What does it mean to "Be in Service?" It starts with an intention. There's an old saying that goes something like: Kindness and compassion are the coin of service. It's the highest state while in human form you can possibly reach. Okay? So again, kindness and compassion are the coins of service. It really is the highest state you can achieve in human form. What does that mean? It means that each day you wake up with an intention to serve another person. Not to throw yourself to the ground and worship at the feet of anyone. But to have a kind thought, to do a kind deed. To set out each day to make the world just a tiny bit better than when you woke up because you were in it.

My father, all his life, woke up every morning to make someone laugh. Up until his 80's that's what he loved to do is make someone laugh. I myself wake up every day to make a difference for someone in the world. And I am blessed to be able to accomplish that each and every day.

ALFRED:

Something that people really are concerned about Hans... We've heard this many, many, many times from our clients is: When you are of service does it mean that you need to give up your income?

HANS:

Oh Good Lord No. Thank you for bringing that up Alfred. It doesn't mean that at all. People didn't give up their income, Alfred, to take down the Berlin Wall. They didn't give up their income to destroy the Soviet Empire. We did it with intention to make a difference. To bring light into a darkened place. Again, intention, service. This is what changes mankind.

ALFRED:

So again, on a similar theme, do you need to give away what you do for free? Is that 'of service?'

HANS:

Well that's all very nice and if you're in that position I say absolutely. But you can't lose the value of your service because you work for free. What I'm trying to get at is, in the Bible it says: A man is worthy of his hire. So if there's no one to pay your rent and your electricity bill and buy your food and all those wonderful things... and there are people who do that for people in service. If there isn't someone to do that for you then no, you need to charge for what you're doing. 

I've often said that it is very strange in America that if you have 3 people in service, and 2 who charge nothing, and 1 who charges say $25 or $30, who will they go and see? They will go and see the person who charges the $25 or $30. Because in our country we believe that more is better. However, that's not a license to gouge. And I've had so many people say to me: Oh, I wouldn't charge if I read. And I said: Well how would you survive? And they never yet had an answer.

ALFRED:

From my point of view, when it was a transition from giving things away to actually charging, the way I look at is: Is the person receiving more value than what you're charging?

HANS:

Yes.

ALFRED:

Are you changing their life? If you're changing their life, okay. Then do you think they really care about the $50 or $100 you're charging them?

HANS:

Exactly... exactly.

ALFRED:

Okay? 

HANS:

And I know it sounds, folks, it may sound very self-serving. But it is true that you must place a value on what you do. You simply must.

ALFRED:

Here's a good question, Hans. Does God approve if you help others and receive an income?

HANS:

Of course. I've said for years... I joke with all you kids on the Show, you think God doesn't know what it costs to live here? Come on, It invented it. Of course it does. And if you can't maintain yourself... This is what happens folks... If you're not able to maintain yourself in your service through your fees, you go into what I call survival issues. 

And survival becomes all that there is and you desperately are looking for work or you're working part-time or everything is about can I meet the rent, can I pay the bills. And when you go into that place, you lose the value of service because that's where your concentration is. You cannot be effective.

Now I also want to say one thing, Alfred, it doesn't mean that there's a license to gouge either. Be reasonable in your fees.

ALFRED:

Here's a good one, Hans. From all your years of being in service and raising your rates throughout the years, what advice can you give people? How can they make a living being in service?

HANS:

You have to start from the beginning with the intention is what I've always taught you guys. You have to start with an intention. And, we know, science now seems to understand what we've been saying - That energy follows thought. And if you have pure intention to be of service... 

Here, I'll give you an example. I knew this wonderful gal, I still do, who worked in a big Silicon Valley company, middle-management, and she was one of the best clairvoyants I had ever met. This was a couple of years ago and she was just a crackerjack. But she said to me: Hansie, I can't make a living at it. And I said: Well here's what I want you to do. I said: Do you have Psychic Fairs around your area? She said: Oh, yeah. I said: Okay. I said: Go and register for those Psychic Fairs and they'll make you charge a minimum, little fee, and I said: Begin to do more and more of those as you can. Wherever you can, give some service away, volunteer, do things for people, so that you begin to build up an understanding that it isn't about money, it's about the service. However, the money is important.

Now, I'm not sitting here today telling you she makes as much money as she did when she was full-time at the computer company. However, what she did was learn to balance the two together. So she works 3 days with one, and 4 days with another. So it does work out.

ALFRED:

And that's a really hard thing is that a lot of times it's not a clean transition from being in corporate or to make money.

HANS:

Exactly, Alfred. Here's one of the things that I think that happens for many people who are so incredibly believing and wanting, Alfred, to serve and all that... And they say: Now God will open the doors and I'll walk out of one into the other.

Normally, children, that does not happen. Normally, there's a foot-path. I remember, Alfred, when you first got started, and you were so frustrated because it didn't happen in your perception. And yet, I said: Keep going, keep going. And gradually, the Spirit balances your energy and before you even know it, someone says: I'd like to give you this. And they'll give you $25 or $50 or $100 and you'll look at them and they'll say: Oh no, that was worth that to me.

And slowly the Spirit then opens... See, you already are abundant as we've all worked on abundance issues. So what you're doing is by saying: I'm going to harmonize myself with my abundance through service. It takes a little time. But, oh, don't lose your patience please. Okay?

ALFRED:

Yes. A lot of people say they wind up having to work two jobs for a little while...

HANS:

But that's fine. You know what that shows, Alfred? That shows Spirit your intention to serve. If you're willing to stretch yourself... I was talking to Alfred the other night and I said: You know I drove over a million miles in my service. I flew over a million and a quarter. And I went to lectures where there were only 6 to 8 people in the audience. I drove over snowy mountains, and through snowy passes, and ice, and skidding, and all that, to see 4 people because they had signed up. They were showing me their intention, now I needed to show them mine.

I remember when Brian Weiss was coming into the Central Valley in California. And he came to do a lecture and there were either 6 or 8 people in the audience. And what did he do? He just said: Alright everybody, come on down to just these front seats here. Let's just be a family today. We'll sit in our living room. And that's what service is. It's not having an expectation of, oh, if you don't have... 

I'll give you an example. I was to do a lecture recently. It was a 3 hour class and the people sponsoring it said: Well, you know, we only have 12 people who have signed up. And Alfred and I said: Oh, that's just fine. And when we got there we noticed that a class was letting out because there were all these people in the room and I assumed the class was letting out. I said: Well how soon can they get out because we've got to get started. We have a time limit on the room. And they said: No, these are your people. There was 137 people in the room.

Set your intention and Spirit will fill the vacuum. Okay?

ALFRED:

And a lot of this has to do with 'patience.'

HANS:

Oh Lord... Don't you dislike that word, Alfred? (Laughing) Patience...

ALFRED:

Patience. And no matter what religion or spirituality...always patience is a virtue.

HANS:

I remember when Alfred would holler and jump up and down and carry on... "I'm tired of waiting." Remember those days, Alfred?

ALFRED:

Yes... (Hans and Alfred laughing) Waiting... waiting and being patient.

HANS:

It is a lesson but it brings me, Alfred, always back to that old saying: And what makes you think anything is wrong? These lessons, if you watch them through the years as we give them to you, you will see, kids, how they weave themselves together and form a tapestry of trust and belief. Yes, Great One?

ALFRED:

Well that seems to be the end of the topic for today, Hans. What do you think?

HANS:

Yes.
