Topic: Holding Spiritual Energy for New Beginnings
November 14, 2015


HANS:
Hi everybody. Welcome. Today’s topic is “Holding Spiritual Energy for New Beginnings.” Over the last couple of weeks we’ve been talking about how to navigate out of your old life. How to understand what you don’t want anymore. We had you make a list of what you don’t want, and we asked you to let it go. We talked about how you do that. How do you let go of our trauma and our drama and the appearance of our life? Remember, we talked about how no two things can be in the same place at the same time, so you have to let go in order to receive. We had some really positive emails, and I thank you very much.

Now, last week we talked about putting your stuff that’s the new life you want into that space. Here’s the difficult part about that—it’s called holding the intention. Got that? Holding the intention. In the moment, so many people say, “I’ve got it! I’m going to be changing and I’m clearing my space, and here’s the new things I want to feel the energy of in my new life.” And then they set off on their journey and the phone rings. There’s a phone call from a parent or a friend. The mind starts to get engaged with the old drama, with the old problems. This is really devastating, if you allow it, because the mind is actually trying to take you back to where it was comfortable. Not to the unknown that it’s not certain of and it may not have control over. It wants to return you again to the old life which it knew well. But remember, it was that mind chatter that caused all the pain and suffering in your life. So, this is a time to say, “You know what? My resolve is so strong that I have no intentions of going backwards in order to go forwards.”

So, today is about learning how to hold your intentions. Alfred, you have some mediation exercises about holding your intention, don’t you?

ALFRED:
Many. But let’s talk on a theoretical basis and let you know what happens. When you finally set your intention to move forward, what is left of your ego is going to fight harder for survival. It will start harassing you more. It will speak louder and you will tell us, “I’m doing this right. Why is my mind chatter getting stronger?”

HANS:
And the fear will grow stronger.

ALFRED:
The fear will grow stronger. Your mind chatter will start screaming at you. This is normal.

HANS:
Absolutely normal. Maybe bring a little humor to it.

ALFRED:
Bring a little humor to it. Say, treat it as a spoiled child.

HANS:
There it goes again.

ALFRED:
What happens when you try and take a toy away from a spoiled child? It’s going to scream at you, but you have to be the parent: this is who’s in charge, this is the spoiled child, and be consistent. Eventually, the spoiled child stops kicking and screaming. The worst thing you can do is let it have it’s own way and realize if it kicks and screams, “Oh, that’s how I can get my way.” You have to be consistent.

HANS:
Boy, is that ever the truth! You must be consistent in your intention to change your behavioral patterns. You have to understand, it’s the job of the mind to try to return you to the old way of being. You come in and you talk to your heart and you say, “We must reinforce our resolve. Reinforce our resolve into the new beginning.” The mind is going to pull at you. We like to say about two weeks, if you work on it diligently, then it begins to calm down. But any change to the mind is a threat. So when your heart-mind sets out for a new beginning, you’re really notifying the fear and the mind chatter that it’s no longer necessary. That’s when it goes to war and that’s when it starts throwing its temper tantrums. But remember, just as the parent has control over the child, you have control over the temper tantrum your mind is bringing up. It will flood you with stuff that could happen—you’re going to lose your job, you’re going to get cancer, you’re going to get pneumonia, a car crash. It just throws everything it can at you, and if you just say, “I give you no more space here. I’m in a new resolve for  a peaceful approach to my new life.” You reinforce that every day. “I’m in a peaceful place in my new approach to my new life.” And you just keep reinforcing it and reinforcing it. Then, after a bit, it becomes automatic.

ALFRED:
So in summary, the first topic we’re talking about is being consistent in your resolve. Being consistent in your determination. Being consistent in your intention to go to that place that you don’t know. To go to that place that you don’t understand.

HANS:
You know, Alfred, how many times we say, “My intention is to do this.” And before we know it, without even seeing it, the mind has literally pulled us back into the old behavior. We don’t even see it coming, but it’s sneaky and it’s crafty.

ALFRED:
That’s a good one. So off to our second topic for today: how to help yourself with your resolve. Your mind will come up with various things it’s going to be saying, and there’s a lot of things you can say back to your mind. We call this reprogramming. Giving your mind chatter new things to think about. You need to tell it who’s in charge and what’s really important to you. So when your mind chatter comes and starts telling you, “No, we need to back to the old way,” there’s a lot of things that can help you talk to your mind chatter to let it know who’s in charge.

HANS:
That’s the whole thing. Letting the mind know that you and your heart and your intentions are in charge. It will argue with you. Oftentimes you’ve heard me say it’s like going to war against your own mind, but it really is. Your mind believes it’s defending you from the unknown, but if you soothe the little child inside you—we’ve often talked about getting a picture of yourself as a child and holding that picture to your chest and talking to your inner child, which is terrified of change. Terrified of making a mistake.

Folks, the only mistake you can ever make is not making a choice. One way or the other, neither one of them is a mistake. We deal with what we choose at the moment and we have the consequences in front of us. If we choose wisely the consequences are good. If we don’t choose wisely, all that happens is we go back to the old way we were being and we survive through that—and you will survive through it again. But why go there? So being involved in holding the essence of your truth is key right now. For the lady who sent me the email, “Oh, I’m so afraid of change,” the only thing to be afraid of is not changing. Change is good! Nothing remains the same, folks. Nothing.

ALFRED:
How about the mirror exercise?

HANS:
The mirror exercise is very good. This is a toughie for a lot of you, but it simply goes something like this: When you get out of your shower or bath in the morning, dry off, go up to the mirror, and drop the towel. Oh, that will give you a good shock. Look right into your eyes and say, “I don’t know who you are, but I promise you I’m going to find out. And when I do, I’m going to take very very good care of you. I promise you I’m never going to let anyone hurt you again. You are my best friend and I love you very much.”

That, Alfred, is a toughie.

ALFRED:
It is. Your heart is going to take care of you. Your mind will say we have to control the outcome, but the heart has to say the path going forward is about surrendering, about letting go, going with the flow. You’re going to be talking from your heart to your mind, whatever your human-ness is, you’re coming from who you are, the part of you that is eternal and that will continue after the body dissolves away.

HANS:
We’re all headed in the same direction, folks, toward enlightenment, but we’re all in different cars. Just know that Spirit is holding your intention with you. Always remember that. When it’s bleak and it’s scary and it’s dark, remember, Spirit has you. They’re holding you in your intention. You do the same. Can you imagine the power you can create in your life when you learn to partner with Spirit on your behalf? Endless possibilities.

And that will conclude the lesson for today!

Topic: The Pain of Lost Expectations
June 6, 2015





HANS:
Hello everyone. Welcome to the show. Today's topic is "The Pain of Lost Expectations." You know folks, throughout my lifetime in service, there is one recurring theme that is extremely painful for a lot of people. If you listen, everyone, to the questions that people send in, there sort of is a theme. Now what is that theme?  A lost expectation. 

How do we get to lost expectations? In our humanness, we, from time to time, have a strong feeling in our heart or in our mind that we should know this person or we should move to this place or we should be doing this kind of a job or we should be doing this service work of some kind... And oftentimes, the expectation isn't met.

Let's go to relationships, folks. A lot of people will say to me: But Hans I knew it in my heart. Let's talk about the gals first, then we'll talk about the guys. Gals, a lot of times you see somebody, and there's this tug that comes in the chest and you just feel that you know this person, you just feel you want to have something to do with this person, even perhaps become lovers and partners. And this is very strong, and this is POW! It just hits you so hard. But nothing happens. And the person is very nice to you. They talk to you about their partner or what they're doing, but you don't see a lean in towards a relationship. 

What is happened there is, most likely, you have met someone from a previous lifetime. So it isn't just the mind and the heart, the soul recognizes that person. And when the soul recognizes that person, it hones right in, and says: Oh, there's my old friend; Oh, there's my old husband, my old wife... Okay? But what you're doing is, what you've heard me refer to before as "soul crossing." Where you just go by each other to say hello and to be remembered. 

But the humaneness of you sets an expectation. And when the humanness of you sets an expectation, because you believe, you tell God you would like a response to your expectation. Even if God, the Spirit, is trying to say to you: Just passing by. You don't want to hear that, you don't want to know that, you don't want to project into this. Because you "know," because you have this "feeling." So this feeling of "I know that person and I know I'm going to be with that person"... A lot of the times comes out of a need to be loved. It comes out of a need to be "seen," a need to be "accepted," a need to be someone's "everything." Even though it isn't to be, for you. 

I cannot tell you how many people Spirit and I counsel a week just listening to people talk about they know that this person is to be in their life. And sometimes, no matter what I say, no matter what I do, they don't want to hear it. You might check around yourself, see if there's some things in here that you might be holding onto with expectations that you may want to say: Is this causing me pain? 

Alfred, what do you say on this? I always like to bring Alfred in when it's like a deer in the headlight moment...

ALFRED:
Expectations are a very difficult spiritual lesson. Yet this lesson can have really profound results...

HANS:
Absolutely.

Alfred:
… in terms of your peace and happiness. Expectation is the mind's view of what should happen, the outcome, in the future. So what you're looking at is getting your humanness, your mind chatter involved as to what it thinks the future should be. Spirituality as we all know is surrendering the future, being in the moment, and letting go of those things that we desire, or our mind chatter tells us we “should” have. And that's where we get ourselves in trouble is when our mind sets us up to expect something in our life and it doesn't happen. The mind has a really hard time understanding: Well, why didn't this happen?

HANS:
Exactly. And oftentimes Alfred, I'm sure you've found, like I have, that the mind often blames the Spirit or blames God. Why didn't God do this for me? Why didn't God give me this? This is what I wanted. I knew it would happen. And we kind of get ourself into a belief trauma as well.

ALFRED:
Yes, and a lot of spirituality is about surrendering. It's about being peaceful and happy in the moment, about being grateful for what you have, realizing that your glass is half full. Having an expectation is that my glass is going to be completely full, or it's going to be more full than it already is. The opposite is: No, I'm peaceful and grateful where I am in the moment.

HANS:
Very good, thank you Alfred. That's the key right there - being peaceful in the moment. Not setting an expectation. Folks, do you think the Spirit doesn't know what's in your heart? Do you think They don't know your longing, your needs, your desires? Of course They do. But They also know your plan. They have a carbon copy of your dharma. They know where you're supposed to be and who you're supposed to be with. But in the game of life, as we see it, people come by us, who we recognize and we think: Oh, there's my soul mate.

Now let's go away from relationships for a minute and let's go to expectations regarding things that you would like to have in your life - a new house, a new car, a new job... Let's go to job. A lot of times we set our expectations for a new position. If we don't have a job, we set our expectations for a job. But when we do that, we also fantasize into it about how it needs to look so we can be okay with it. Rather than say: I'm available for that perfect job that is for me at this time. Not tomorrow, not next week, at this time. Thank you for bringing the doors for this to me.

We set our statement, and then we add all of these little subtleties to it. And before you know it, what was just getting you a maintenance job for the moment, has turned into this life-long dream of yours to be this or to do that. So, lost expectations come about when we set them. So the expectation happens when we say... Rather than say: I would like the feeling and I would like the awareness of this particular thing... and I would enjoy seeing how this might be in my life and letting it go... and I would say: to my highest good always. 

So They get it. They hear where you're coming from. You're not saying you're going to be less than if it doesn't happen. You're already enough as you are right now. You don't need anything whatsoever. You might like the experience of something. And as Alfred would throw in: And here's how I would like to feel in the experience. That's how you set, what we call today, expectations. Where we don't say: And I want it to show up this way, and I need for this person to love me, and I need this particular job... and all these things that we do in our humanness. They're roadblocks. Somebody wrote, Alfred, I don't know who, but they said: "Expectations are limitations." You remember that?

ALFRED:
Expectations are a limitation because it is something that your mind chatter created. It's part of ego, maybe it's something that you saw on television, maybe it's something that your parents told you you deserved, maybe you're trying to live up to the Jones or your friends, and unknowingly you set an expectation of "this is what I want in my life" and it becomes a limitation because everything else that comes across that doesn't look like what your mind is telling you you should have, is now instantly dismissed. However, how do you know what is being presented to you isn't for your highest good? A person that may not meet all of your items on your list may be your soul mate.

HANS:
Yes.

ALFRED:
However, you have an expectation written down in your list of what your soul mate should look like and the Other Side presents you with your soul mate and you dismiss that person. So having an expectation, having an opinion, a judgment of what should be in your life and what it should look like, is an absolute limitation because then you are dismissing, without even a consideration, those things that Spirit presents to you.

HANS:
Folks, sometimes when we set our agenda, we sort of say to Spirit, taking off on what Alfred was just talking about: And this is how I want it to look, and this is how I want it to arrive. If you have perfect faith, if you believe, then you tell the Spirit what you would like the experience of and that's it... and how you would like to feel. Those two things. I think two-thirds of all the questions that come into this Radio Show are from lost expectations. If you go back and you listen to all the Shows... My gosh Alfred, how many shows have we done now? Quite a few...

Alfred:
Four years... about four years.

HANS:
Well that's almost 200 shows. And many of you are the ones who are in the pain of the lost expectation. Folks, I'm not saying it isn't painful. But what you don't realize is why would you want someone who doesn't want you? Why would you do that to yourself? Why would you put yourself in that position? And I hear people say all the time: Oh, I knew that they were for me. I knew it. It's their fault. They're not living up to what they're supposed to do. And very rarely, but it does happen, that's true. But Spirit always has a contingency for a contingency for every contingency.

So if you're supposed to be loved at a certain level, you will be. It may not be by this person. But they bring another person in and you'll say: Oh, I'm so glad that I didn't get first person because this person really works wonderfully for me. Letting go of expectations regarding parents... This is the tough one folks. When you let go of the pain and the expectations of the parents, your life gets so much easier. Does it not, Alfred?

ALFRED:
It really does because then you stop putting energy towards something that might happen in the future. That's number one is you think that thing in the future will actually fix you. If this happens, then I'll be happier, if this person comes into my life, I'll be better. And the reality is, by letting go of anything that has to do with the future, the past, as we all know also, helps you become more peaceful and happy and blissful and joyful in the moment. Expectations are a reflection of what's happened in our past and projects us out into our future which takes us away from being grateful in the moment. So again, it's a huge step towards your spiritual growth to let go of expectations in order for you to be grateful and peaceful in the moment.

HANS:
Folks, many of you run on a time constraint. Oh, I'm getting old... oh, if I get much older I can't have children... will she still want me when I get to be 50? We run under this fear umbrella of we're running out of time. Folks, there is no time. Oftentimes when the Spirit speaks to you, They say something, They're saying that person will be in your life, probably coming up next lifetime. Not always this one. So letting yourself simply learn to "be" with “no expectations.” I'm here in this moment, this is the experience I would like to have, I give it to you to do for me to my highest good, and bring those doors to me. Then you're saying: I trust you. I know that this pain in my heart really is self induced. 

And one thing in lost expectations, children, never, ever, ever, become a victim or make the other person a villain. I know clients who have made other people villains in their life only because they didn't live up to this person or that person's expectation of how that person would be. So they pre-set the expectation of how it had to be. But the other person wasn't at that spot. But that doesn't make any difference. Because these people say: Oh, but I knew it was for me, there was no doubt it was for me, and I'm coming to stick this out.

One of the biggest things that people do is when they fall in love with married people, or committed people. I know she's for me... I know he's for me... and I know they're going to leave that person... and I know they're going to be with me. What you are picking up is your experience of that person from a previous lifetime and you get confused about this. If a person is in a relationship, you need to honor that and walk away - period. Under almost any circumstance. If that relationship is to be, it will show up somewhere down the road with you having absolutely no expectations and nothing to do with it. Okay?

Now, as you go through your life, there are going to be moments when you see someone or something you would really, really like the experience of. Sit down, be quiet, and say to Spirit: I don't know if this situation or this person is for me. But I am available if they are. I'm available to my highest good. Please show me where I need to be with this issue and drop it. Make yourself, of course, available in your heart. But have no expectation of how it has to happen, how it has to show up. 

I know a person, a couple of months ago, who met a person on an airplane. And they struck up a conversation and he was a married person and this girl felt she knew him and she started running all the fantasies and what have you... She drove herself to the point where she had to go to the hospital in a panic attack because he had not called her, when he never said he would. But she knew it, in her heart, that he was going to call. This is what I'm talking about when we disturb our peace, when we disturb our ease. Okay? 

So having a quiet awareness that where you... Folks, why do you think Alfred and I talk so much about being in the now? Making this moment right now all there is. I am enough. Why do you think we do that? Because it's only the mind that brings attachments to the peace. The heart doesn't have to. Only the mind disturbs the peace. The heart never does. So when we learn: Oh, I got to feel something, isn't that wonderful, I'm still alive...

The other day Alfred and I were walking somewhere and the wind was whistling and Alfred's dressed up looking like a polar bear, you can't even see his face with the hoodie he's got on, and I'm in a T-shirt. And he said something and I said under my breath: Yes, but at least I have feelings. I can feel it. Isn't that wonderful? Feeling the cold wind on your face, feeling the Caribbean sand in your feet, feeling a smile on your face when you see a puppy... Those are the things folks, that are important.

So the greatest gift you give yourself is to stop expectations and replace them with a knowing and an understanding that Spirit is here for you. They know what is supposed to be for you. Let Them do their work and many times their work does not show up in your expectation. Alfred, what did Mick Jagger say in that song? You don't always get what you want...

ALFRED:
… but if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need.

HANS:
There is a metaphysical statement if ever there was one. So where you already are, right now folks, is perfect. Have you ever noticed everyone that no matter how bad things seem to get, somehow you always get through? No matter how broke you are, no matter how poor you may be in a moment, somehow, something happens and you get through? Have you ever noticed that when you've had a relationship you think it's your end-all, be-all, and this person says: I'm sorry it doesn't work for me. Your heart is broken, it's shattered and on the floor. A year later you wonder what you ever saw in the person because you're with somebody else. 


Just being peaceful, in the moment, will bring to you all the lessons you need to learn. So less expectations is less pain. Alfred, I think that will conclude the lesson for today.

Topic: Being In Spiritual Truth
May 17, 2015





HANS:
Hello everybody and welcome. Today we are going to be talking about Spiritual Truth. What is Spiritual Truth? What does "Being In Spiritual Truth" mean? For so many of my clients through the many years I've been in service, I will get an email or a letter saying: Oh, my gosh, what a difference! Oh, this is working for me! And what happens oftentimes is that people read a book or they go to take a class or they have a reading, for instance, and they'll say: Oh, I got it. When really what has happened is that the mind has captured the conversation. The mind has captured what is trying to be said. And the mind captures what is being said.

But unfortunately, the mind does not send it to the peaceful place in the heart. It holds the information in the head. That, children, is not spiritual wisdom or spiritual truth. That's trying to control how Spiritual Truth looks. Allowing the mind to send a clean and clear picture to the heart, of trust and faith and belief, learning to wake up every day knowing and hearing that you are perfect for God today... This is a whole new concept.... it's a whole new understanding... a whole new awareness. Because your mind chatter, for all the many years that you've been alive, short or long... all those years, the mind has tried to keep you safe. And unfortunately, it has really kept you unsafe. 

So Spiritual Truth means "trusting"... not just "knowing" it... not just "learning" it, not just “hearing” it... by putting it into practice every single day. And when you do that, when you wake up in the morning and you say: My goodness, I don't have to struggle today because I'm enough for God... Oh, my goodness I'm okay, God hears me. Oh, I'm not alone... I have Angels and I have Guides. My whole life has changed because "I believe." And Spiritual Truth is about "believing."

Knowing, in your heart, that beyond any reasonable doubt that there's no judgment of you from anyone on the Other Side. Not God, not Spirit, not your Helpers and Friends... no one. There's no judgment of you. All that judgment that's been going on all these years came out of the mind chatter. So when you truly "believe," when you truly get it, you begin to set the mind chatter "off." You begin to let it go. It no longer plays a role in your life. Yes, it's there to open the car door, to put the dishes in the dishwasher. Of course... all maintenance stuff. But it has no control any longer who "you" are and what is best for “you.” Because your heart chakra will always show you what is best for you.

So Spiritual Truth is literally about "belief." But you will find, so often kids, that when you're in the mind chatter learning about these things and thinking that you've got them, your mind is still running its crazies. You can see it in the questions that come in. We're all family here, so hear me through. Very enlightened people on this Show still send in worrisome questions. That means you're still working on your belief. Nothing wrong with that, kids... nothing wrong with that at all. 

However, the truth of the matter is that as long as you continue to do that, the longer it will take you to come into a place that says: "I am. It is sufficient unto this day and always for me." "I already am enough." When you can say that, you will find the mind chatter still trying to instigate trouble, still trying to cause up a fear: What if I lose my job, what if I get a divorce, what if I never find a partner... All of that nonsense that it plays up and plays out will not be of any value to you any longer and you will refuse to listen to it.

We get a lot of people who say: No, but I do believe BUT... A lot of BUT's, guys. Well I believe perfectly Hans, BUT this situation has continued to come up in my life... I believe absolutely Hans that God loves me BUT... I'm not certain that I'll ever find a partner... I'm not certain I'm on the right track. So basically what happens is, not to put too fine a point on it, your mind chatter gives lip-service to "belief"... does not give heart to belief. It gives lip-service. And when you finally understand what the mind is up to, then you really can begin to motivate yourself back into the heart chakra and say: Wait a minute, I don't want to be in that mind chatter. I don't want that in my life. I want this. I want peace.

I talked to a client the other day folks that most of you know from the Radio Show. And what it was about was that they had gotten to a certain place in their intuitive development but their mind chatter just literally refused to turn loose of a certain fear on a certain subject. And what I explained to the individual was: Well that's not exactly true. The mind chatter created it, yes. But you have the control over it. Nothing you're doing in your life is greater than who you are. No action the mind chatter takes can ever stop you from eliminating the mind chatter. You have the power.

Alfred, do you have something on this for us today?

ALFRED:
From all the time that I've been with Hans and following his teachings, the greatest gift that I think I've come across that I want to share with you is the difference between "learning" spirituality and "being" spiritual. One is the traditional way of going about something which is: I'm going to learn it. Unfortunately that invites the mind chatter. That tells the mind chatter: Oh, we can learn this. I, the mind, the human aspect of you, can participate in this spirituality. And what we're trying to tell you is you're still in limitation if you're giving the mind chatter permission to participate by thinking you can "learn" spirituality, then you're running into limitation.

Well, what's the difference? "Being"... Are you “being” the principles? Are you “being” peaceful? Are you “being” loving? Are you “being” caring? Are you “being” trusting? Do you have faith? Are the spiritual principles dictating how you behave? Your behaviors... How you behave is how you are. I am. I am peaceful. I am loving. Or is your behavior that I'm in fear, I'm scared, I am worried... which is your behavior. 

So in order so that you can incorporate spiritual principles into your life, the difference between "learning" and "being" is learning stops with your mind thinking you can learn it. It doesn't change your behavior. And what we're saying is there is nothing to learn. All you need to do is say: Am I in trust? Do I have faith? Am I peaceful? Is my behavior according to spiritual principles? 

How's that, Hans?

HANS:
Well, absolutely, Alfred. And that's exactly what we're trying to work on today. Thank you. And I remember back in the day when Alfred was first coming on-board he really didn't struggle with thinking that the heart could operate his life as well as his mind. And for all of you, I'm not trying to disconnect you from your mind because it's a tool you use. But I am trying to disconnect you from the thought that it's who you are. That's the key. 

We think our mind chatter is actually who we are. And nothing, kids, nothing could be further from the truth. That who you are is that little boy or that little girl that hugs the pillow at night and wonders if anybody knows who they are... if anybody hears their thoughts... if anyone knows that they're alive. Does God see me? I'm so small... I'm so insignificant... Can God hear me? Do I have Angels, really? 

So setting yourself on a path that says: You know what, I'm going to use my mind for what it needs to do but it has nothing to do any longer with who I am. And I'm going to come from a place in my heart that speaks with the power of Spirit. And remember, kids, when you identify with yourself, in “belief,” “spiritual belief,” your Angels, your Guides, your Helpers, your Friends... they're all there, you just plug right into it. And you feel so much better... you feel so much nicer... you feel as though you have hope. You feel as though you have dreams that can come true. No matter what they are - because they're your dreams. And yes they can come true and they will come true if you "believe them." Okay?


Alfred, I think that will conclude the lesson for today.

Topic: Judgment and Opinion
April 6, 2015





HANS:
Good day everybody. So glad to be back with you today. "Judgment and Opinion"... Wow, can you imagine going through your life with no judgment or no opinion? You know, that's what we were supposed to do. That's what Spirit, that's what God lined us up for. No judgments, no opinion.

But unfortunately, we live in a society that points out to us, every single day, what's wrong. What “could” happen, what “might” happen, what “has”  happened... every day. And then we have all the pundents on TV and all the reporters and the writers for the magazines who all have their opinion, which is nothing more than a judgment. They don't know. I'm watching, right now, the country go crazy with this nuclear deal with Iran when nobody knows the truth but the President and Secretary of State and his staff. But all these judgments, all these opinions, all this fear, is pouring forward. Whether you like Mr. Obama or you do not like Mr. Obama, he has the best interest of our country at heart... and always has had. 

So when you come into this world, you come in with no judgments and no opinions. Well, where do you get judgments and opinions from? Well, it starts with your family. Because each member of your family has arrived and wherever they are in their life, having gone through multitudes of pain and upset-ness and not knowing, and most people don't have really peaceful times anymore, and so they sort of built up this wall and they make it somebody else's fault. Oh, well your grandfather did this, and you know if your grandfather had just taken his money and put it in here we wouldn't have this problem we have today with money, and your father lost his job and nothing's ever been the same since. 

That's what we do. We start forming judgments and opinions. True spiritual performance for the self is when you say: It is that it is and it is fine. Because every single thing, kids, that you come across in your life is meant to help you. Every relationship, every child, your parents, are meant to grow you. Therefore “nothing is wrong.” 

I remember when that Buddhist Monk said to me... He said: Well young man, what if you found out that absolutely nothing was wrong? And I couldn't... I couldn't, kids, get my head around that thought that actually nothing was wrong. He said: It's only your perception of what is happening that makes it look wrong to you. Okay? Only your perception. And that's where your spirituality comes into play. 

Because when we have a perception, it says that we have a knowing. No we don't. We have an idea of what we think should be right. But someone once said: There's your opinion, my opinion, and the truth. Interesting, isn't that? In every argument there are two sides who believe they are correct. In every war both sides pray to some kind of a god. 

Simplicity, always children, is truth itself. And the simpler you make your life, the less turning on FOX News, or listening to pundents, the less you do that, the less you set yourself up to hear discord, anger, resentment, the purer the energy around you becomes. And as that energy becomes purer, your life becomes sweeter, it becomes kinder, it becomes nicer. But when you allow the mind chatter to rail on and on and on about this is wrong or that is wrong or why did this happen... It just “is.”

You will always be taken care of by Spirit - always. God knows you're here. Yeah, for some of you you've chosen what appears to be little more challenging lives. I did. Alfred did. But does that mean... And this is what I want you to really all hear - does that mean anything is wrong because you have a more challenging life? No. It's just that you chose very challenging situations to grow your character. And it is your character that you take back to Spirit when you leave here. How you did, how you handled... Remember, Spirit never looks at the deed - ever, ever, ever. They only look at the intention behind the deed. I've been telling you kids for years now.

We set ourself up in a situation that says: If only I had this... Or if only I could do that... If only I had a partner I know my life would be perfect. But that's not true and you all know that's not true. If only I had enough money, everything would be perfect. Well, there have been times where you've had plenty of money and then you worried about not having it.

Learning that you are enough, learning that you have enough, learning that fear is about the possibility of lack, fear is about the possibility of not finding love. I'm counseling a dear friend of mine and she keeps talking about a relationship... not having a relationship. And I said: It's not about the relationship. It's about the relationship you have with yourself. And on Saturday, we spent 3 hours helping people to understand that it's not about the love out there, it's about the love in here, the love inside of us. 

We present ourselves to Spirit and to God as very needy and very sad because we don't have something. When we have surrounding us, every day, love... every day, love. But we don't look at that as an asset. We look at it as: Yes, we have love but it's us, where's my partner? That's not what it's about. Love always comes when you're not looking. Stop looking for love. It never happens that way. Only when you're not looking, it shows up. And it shows up in the most unusual ways. Okay?

Judgment, anger, resentment, are all products of a sad place in our heart. We need to blame people, we need to become victims of people, and we need to become victims of situations. When if we would stop one day, sit down and say: I'm done; It's over. I'm going to listen to Hansie's "You Are Enough." And I'm going to follow my life from that point. I absolutely refuse to be intimidated, I refuse to allow myself to be fearful, and no matter what negative thought comes into my head I intend for it not to be able to stay any longer.

Alfred?

ALFRED:
A lot of people try to understand what happened. Where do these judgment and opinions come from? Why are they so prevalent? A lot of it is because of the way we grew up. We looked towards others who we thought knew more than us. Thus we took on their judgments, their opinions of life, whether they're family, friends, or media. And part of spiritual growth is to understand that you are unique. There is absolutely no need for you to take on anyone else's opinions and judgments. And in reality, any judgment, any opinion, is simply mind chatter because you understand the universal truth - that it is impossible to have a proper judgment or opinion.

Because you don't  know everything. You don't know complete dharma, karma, experiences, attitude... anything. So quite simply the simple spiritual practice is by doing the inner work you're letting go of all of those judgments and opinions. That is a huge part of letting go of mind chatter, that is a huge step towards getting inner peace is letting go of all of those things you picked up as you were growing up.

HANS:
And Alfred, I think it's important for people to remember they didn't do it deliberately.

ALFRED:
No.

HANS:
Nobody set out to be in pain, nobody set out to be unhappy. It happened along the way. Okay? It happened along the way. I was watching a movie on TV and the young man about 13 or 14, he found out that his girlfriend really didn't like him very much and she gave him back his ring. And he came home and his dad sat him down and said: What's going on, son? And he told him. And he said: Ah, growth. And the kid said: Well, what do you mean? He said: Now you're growing. Remember something, you're more important than the ring. You're more important than the person that you love. You are enough for yourself. And it was just like somebody took a page out of a book of mine. And I thought: Isn't that wonderful that this is going out?

Knowing that no matter what appears, it's only a lesson. It's not going to do you in. We pick our lives, we pick our partners, we pick whatever lessons that we choose to learn. But judgment shows a weakness in the soul itself. Judgment, blame, victimization, all of these things show a lack of understanding of the principles of truth. So sit yourself down and say: From this point forward, I will no longer live in the space that I have been in that is causing me such sadness. 

And children I know people who have more than enough abundance who God has blessed unbelievably who still struggle every day. So having funds, having good health does not mean it brings happiness. Happiness is a place that resides in your heart when you touch the Godforce within.


And Alfred, I think that will conclude the lessons for today.

Topic: Listening to Spirit 
March 28, 2015






HANS:
Hi everyone. Today's topic is "Listening to Spirit." As you know, one of my great teachers. of course. is Yoda. And one of the things that he said to Skywalker was: Don't try. Do or don't do. But don't try. Now why did he say that? Because in the 'trying' is a human mind intention, you see? And when the human mind intention gets involved... You can set your intention but then go away from it. 

That is going to allow you to not sit there and wonder: I wonder if I'm going to get anything. I wonder if it's going to work today. I wonder what They're going to say today. All of that, that is coming out of the humanness 'need to know,' is actually, Alfred, interfering with the direct channeling abilities.

ALFRED:
Yes. And that's something that we've been discussing, especially with our Spiritual Circle Members who send in questions about how to receive guidance, is that any aspect of humanness, including simply asking questions, is interfering with your ability to hear. Because asking questions means you in your human self think you know what the question is and your inviting your humanness into the channeling session.

HANS:
Yes. And that is when you fail yourself, people. Okay? Sitting down to blank out the space that holds the mind chatter, frees up a space for Spirit to begin to enter into a light conversation with you. Now I say 'light' because they won't come in and hit you over the head with a board... normally. They did with Alfred. But that was the only way we could get through to him.

But for most of you, a quiet understanding that 'it already is so,' you see. It already is so. There's never a time you're NOT in communication with Spirit, people, never. One of the problems that I have found, Alfred, with people trying to channel is the 'trying' aspect. It literally gets in the way of the 'I Am' principle - that says 'I already am.'

ALFRED:
It's very, very true that trying is an aspect of humanness. 

HANS:
Yes.

ALFRED:
That means you're trying to be something that you're not already. And one of the easiest principles of Spirit to remember is that you already perfect.

HANS:
Yes.

ALFRED:
Everybody questions: Okay, well why do we come down if we're already perfect? But simply saying you are already perfect... If you all want to be in spiritual form, if you wish to communicate with Spirit, start from the basis that you are perfect and that you need nothing and that everything is effortless.

HANS:
That's right.

ALFRED:
So if you are channeling correctly, it should be absolutely effortless. Which means you need to tell your humanness not only to be peaceful and quiet but to absolutely do nothing besides be a simple, blank slate and effortlessly connect to the Other Side.

HANS:
Yes, absolutely... absolutely. And you know folks, when you say: I'm trying. What are you saying? You say: I'm not. And that's the message that you're sending to Spirit. I know I'm not in touch with you but I'm trying to be. Wrong message. They won't respond to that message. By having a heart that says: I am, daily, in touch with Spirit. I would like to sit down and feel that love right now. You hear the difference, Alfred? I would like to sit down and hear and feel the love. I'm not 'trying' to be in touch with Spirit.

There are certain things... for instance Circles or Seances where there is a Medium present to enact a certain vibration that allows people on the Other Side to speak to people on This Side. That's one thing. But you yourself are never out of contact with the Spirit - Never. But your mind chatter disconnects you from your peace and your space of loving partnership with Spirit by this constant trying  to understand it. What They're saying? All of this... This causes you a problem,  definitely.

ALFRED:
Especially things like: What are my Guides names?

HANS:
Yes.

ALFRED:
How are They related to me? Does that not sound like trying to understand it? And what we try to say is: There is nothing to understand. If you are trying to understand the names of your Guides, how it's going to work, what it's going to sound like, what types of information They're going to be giving you, you are inviting your humanness into the session.

HANS:
Exactly.

ALFRED:
You are putting yourself in limitation by trying to understand it.

HANS:
I didn't know who the names of my Guides were for many, many years. I called them 'Friend.' Yes, Friend I feel you. Yes, Friend I hear you. That type of thing. I didn't say: Well, I'll only believe if you give me a name. And, Alfred, that's what a lot of people do. They're waiting to get a name as if the name qualifies the reality.

ALFRED:
Exactly. They say: Okay, if I understand, if I get a signal, then it means I'm going in the right direction. No. That's a human approach. And again, if you try to approach receiving guidance and channeling the Other Side from a human approach, you are inviting limitation, you are inviting interference, you are inviting separation from the Other Side. It is by letting go of the mind chatter, letting go of thought, letting go of understanding, letting go of trying... Simply going into the most peaceful place, blank place, possible, that it's going to work.

HANS:
Yes. And it will work for all of you. Remember, the less you 'try' to channel, the more you will. The more you 'try' to channel, the less you will. Because the word 'try' gets in your way. It's the mind chatter that says I need, I'm wanting to believe... all these things. But it doesn't say I trust and believe.

When I sit down, folks, for over 35, 40 years, I went out into the world somewhere to see 8 people a day, 6 and 7 days a week. For years and years and years and years and years. I never one day ever sat down and said: I wonder if I'll be able to get anything today. I had what they call a 'knowing'. A simple knowing. And the knowing was 'it already was.' I wasn't separate of that truth because I walked in it. 

We gave a class recently, if you remember Alfred, at Agape International, on Walking in Two Worlds and showing people how it is that they can believe that they already are receiving information from the Other Side and then there's the appearance of reality on This Side. Notice how I say 'appearance.' But everyday that you get up... When you're asleep you're already on the Other Side. When you get up the energy from the Other Side doesn't say: Oh, bye. I'll see you next time. No, the energy follows with you into your daily life. And learning to access says: I don't try, I do.

ALFRED:
So on that note, Hans, let's just simply summarize. This human world is the exact opposite of what it's like to be in Spirit.

HANS:
That's correct.

ALFRED:
So if you wish to communicate with, be as Spirit, do the exact opposite which is do not try, do not understand. Okay?

HANS:
That's why Yoda said: Do or don't do. But don't try.

ALFRED:
But you are to be in a blank space. Understand that you are already perfect. That you need nothing. You do not need to understand who or why or what or how.

HANS:
No... no.

ALFRED:
It is from that place of nothingness that there is everything. It is from that place of nothingness that you separate from your limitation. It is from that place of nothingness that you invite Spirit to enter.

HANS:
And Alfred, I can hear our folks out there right now saying: Well, wait a minute. I need to know! No, you don't.  And Alfred, that's very hard... what you just gave hard. It's absolute truth but it's very hard for the human mind to accept that it is not in control.

ALFRED:
That's exactly the point.

HANS:
And to believe, Alfred, into nothingness. You used that word several times. That's spiritual truth.

ALFRED:
If you want to understand and if you want to be in control, that's what you're going to get. If you wish to talk to the Other Side, then you need to be the opposite of understanding and control.

HANS:
Yes. Absolutely the opposite.

ALFRED:
It is a spiritual truth. Hope that helps. A really complicated topic but...

HANS:
It's a tough one, Alfred.

ALFRED:
It is.

HANS:
It gets the people's minds a'runnin' quite well. But just know, always, that there's never a time, gentle people, where you are not in touch with Spirit. And I think Alfred, that will conclude the lesson for today.

“The Perception of Death”- by Hans Christian King Spiritual Radio Show Transcription

“The Perception of Death”- by Hans Christian King 
Spiritual Radio Show Transcription
GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE Radio Show

Topic: The Perception of Death
February 28, 2015







HANS:
Hello everyone. Today's topic is "The Perception of Death." It's certainly an interesting title, and I want to say to everyone that life is a continuum. There is no beginning and there is no end. In the human form we are guided by a perception that says you become alive when you are born and you die when you die and your soul goes to Heaven and... Basically what it is is throughout our lives we are constantly going to different levels of consciousness to enrich our soul. So when we're here in the human world, we have human attachments. And those human attachments, these wonderful people who love us and... I had a lovely lady come up to me at Agape and she says: Hansie, are you taking care of yourself? I said: As best I can. I said: Why? She says: Because I would die if we lost you. And I said: No child you would not. Because I would continue to impress energy on you after I left. All you have to do is call me. Just ask for me. 

Death is something that is not real. All that's happening is that the physical attachment... Let's say the car we bought is getting rusty, it's getting old, but the interior's still fine... So my interior's still fine. I don't believe I'm going anywhere for any number of years to come. However, a lot of people have an awareness that they believe in the totality of death. That when you pass away that's it, goodbye, no more. Nothing, children, could be further from the truth. 

A lovely lady at Agape came up to me and said: Hans, my mother died last week and we didn't have a good relationship and I'm so sad we parted the way we did. I said: Were you there? She said: Yes. I said: She passed through you on the way home. And when she got home, she was quickly able to see what had happened. She's at peace now and she's hugging you and saying: Don't believe what happened was who I am. You see? Don't believe what happened is who I am. So it's time for all of us, at some point, to say goodbye. There's no one in this listening audience who will not lose someone. That is the way of life. How you approach it is another matter entirely. Our Irish friends hold a Wake and celebrate and sort of get a little sloshy and they honor the person that Hawaiians do. So many of our oldest cultures honor the person on the way out of this adventure - which is all it ever was in the first place. 

Sometimes we have only one friend and that friend is a parent, or a lover, or a loved one. And that person gets sick and terror fills our heart. And we say: What will we do if they leave us?  And I would say to you: You'll be fine because God is great, love is eternal. You will never lose...never ever lose the love of that individual. I lost my partner of 47 years some years ago. How did I handle that? Not well. Even knowing what I know, I still suffered. I wound up in the hospital. And then magic occurred. Out of all that. And Alfred showed up. And so what I'm saying to you is there is no beginning, there is no end, there simply "is."

Many of you have relationships with individuals you would have never dreamed you would ever be in with that one. But what you don't know is the "why." So you have contracts with people who will come into your life and you have contracts with people who will leave your life as you will leave your life one day. And what you want to always be certain is that you stay on track to accomplish all that you came in to do the best you can. You may not, children, get to everything in this lifetime. I don't know that I will. But Spirit doesn't look at that. Do they? They always say: And what was the intention? That's where they come from. 

At the moment of crossing, the Spirit cuts our silver cord, you know nothing about it, you don't feel anything, nothing happens, you simply go to sleep for a moment. 5 minutes later, if there is such a thing is time, that's what they guesstimate, you wake up and oh, oh, it's you, it's you. Oh, oh I forgot. Oh my God, I forgot...all my family and friends. And then a party ensues. Alfred's Italian so he's going to have a very big party. Aren't you, Alfred?

ALFRED:
Absolutely. And that's one of the big things is the mind cannot fathom life without the body because it is the body. However, the soul truly knows that this body is merely an experience and there will be many more of those experiences.

HANS:
Many, many more.

ALFRED:
Many more.

HANS:
And you know Alfred, this is how strange we are as Spirit in human form.  We say we're afraid of death and every night we ask to go to sleep, to lose consciousness, believing we will wake up. Every night we go to sleep. Oh, for a lovely night's sleep. Oh, oh... We're not afraid to die at all. You see? Because you have a consciousness that's says oh, but you'll wake up. Folks, when you make your crossing you also will wake up. You see what I'm saying? So that's why I say that life is a continuum. 

Please don't be afraid of death. If you want to worry about anything, worry about life. It's very complicated (laughing). Death is very simple. The Other Side is beautiful. But you've got to stick it out, finish the job. And you'll know, you'll know that when your partner, your mom or your dad or your sister or brother or your child leaves you, they're in such love, such love. The abundance of love is everywhere. And for all these 60 years I've been in service I've heard Spirit come back and say: I had no idea. I feared for nothing. Everything is beautiful. 

And they can do little things around the house. They can put the TV on, put it off, turn lights on and off, tilt pictures...All kinds of fun things. Love everyone you can for as long as you can. But that love will never die when that person leaves you or you leave that person. Alfred, I think that will conclude the lesson for today.
