Topic: Walking In Both Worlds
February 21, 2015






Hans:
Good evening everyone. How nice to be back with you all. Today's topic is "Walking in Both Worlds." One of the great lessons that Spirit taught me many, many, many years ago was that we are really not human with a spiritual attachment but we are spiritual beings cloaked in a human body, if you will. So we're actually Spirit in human form. This can often be a little off-putting for many people because they don't feel that way. They tend to feel the essence of the moment or the moment is about the mind chatter and you know Aunt Sue has, you know, a problem and your mom or your dad are going through something, and so we begin to turn from that wonderful, wonderful baby essence of the angel inside each and every one of us and we start to go into the appearance of the non-reality that is our daily life.

This, I veer just slightly, every so slightly, on that teaching just for a second to say to you: Remember that when your life presents itself every day, there's nothing going on in your life you did not create. I want to hit that home again. Remember there's nothing going on in your life you did not create. You chose your job, your clothes, your home, where you live, your spouse. Everything is a choice. Now, periodically when things tend to begin to fall apart we begin to forget the essence of the little angel. Wouldn't it be fun if we could go back and say to ourselves: I wonder what the angel would say? I wonder what the baby angel would want in this situation? And almost always it comes back: Love and acceptance. You don't need acceptance people, but you do require love. 

So these little loving angels that we are that have put on these clothes, and this body of ours in other words, and walking into this world that we're about, sometimes we just lose our way. We lose our wisdom, we lose our knowledge, we lose so much of the essence of the inner-child which is our little angel. So we are, in effect, baby angels having a human experience. That's very difficult for a lot of people to believe. But it is in fact the reality. Who we are in appearance on the external only stays here for 70 to 90 years, that's it. No matter what you do to it, how you clothe it, no matter how much medicine you take, vitamins, no matter what you do, the body will leave you. Always. 

So spiritual beings cloaked in human bodies - sort of our focus this evening - how does that manifest? Well when we're on the Other Side and before we're getting ready to come back to this world, a bunch of us get together with our angels, our buds, our friends, and we have a look at the past life and what was it we intended to accomplish before we went to that life. And we look to see did we do what we said that we wanted to do, did we have the experiences we wanted to have, and if not we say, well maybe I'll go back and try that one over again. You've heard me say to you your friends and everybody get with you. And say: Well, I'll go with you. You can work on this with me and I'll work on that with you. 

When you arrive here, you have the word within you. And the word is: Love. You don't necessarily know that, but it will be pervasive in your life. That's why we worry about love, will we find love, will love be kind to us, will love hurt us... That is what they call the world outside of us, and visiting us through our mind chatter. The word within us says: I am enough. The word within us says: I and my father are the same. The God-force that is, is me. The God that takes care of me, that provides for me, is in me. There is nothing I need. Because all of my needs have been taken care of since I was born. The world outside of us, which is what we are taught to believe in, as though it was real, presents us with pitfalls, presents us with fear and doubt, presents us with...actually fundamental untruths. And so we tend to follow that fear. We follow that mind chatter to the world outside of us. And people begin to hammer home this is the real world. If it were the real world, it would stay the same. But it's not, it's constantly changing. Because the real world is based on other people's ideas of what is so and what is not so. And they put a number on over everyone and say this will provide to everyone. Be afraid of this, be happy if this happens...

Our entire nation, and most of the world, is being shaken to the ground. As you all know I have what's called My Prayer Request on my webpage. And I get a tremendous amount of emails everyday from individuals, including my dear loving friends you, asking me what happened? Am I going to be safe? Will I ever crawl out of this debt? Will I ever begin to live normally like I did before? What many of you didn't know is that was an illusion you were living in. The United States of America overspent for 30 years and borrowed money for 30 years and borrowed itself nearly into oblivion. We will get through this because we have the most diverse economy on earth. We will get through this. And you've heard me say: But we'll never be the same.

The word within us tells us we are enough. The word within us reminds me, reminds you, that we don't need to search for what we already have. We already are angels. The experience that we seek to have is only something we wish to visit us, it is not us. But the outside world bangs on the door of us telling us we're broke, telling us we're not enough, telling us we're alone, telling us all the horrible, awful things that could happen to us. You've heard me say: That the mind chatter never tells us how wonderful we are. Only the heart tells us how wonderful we are. And every day the Spirit reminds you, in any way they can, how wonderful you are to them.

Trust in your spiritual growth. Choosing what feels best. This can sometimes be a very difficult thing because the outside world tells us what it believes. Our mind chatter tells us what it believes. So you have two things that are just telling you what you should do. But if you listen to the heart... In other words, if you had what used to be called your druthers, which now is your options, if you had your options and everything were equal, what experience would you choose for you in this time in your life? Watch the mind chatter, watch the outside of us try to diffuse that. 

I talked to a dear friend of mine today who said: Every time I start to do something for myself I talk myself out of it. And it's been like that since I was a child. I know a person who told themselves: Yes, I can. Yes, I am. From very, very humble beginnings. And accomplished those goals in their lifetime. You get on a daily basis feedback from the Other Side. Who is constantly trying to enforce and renew the wonderful baby angel that you are. It's constantly renewing that angel, constantly saying why not, constantly trying to get you to dream past your limitations. So feeling that baby angel in you, trusting that baby angel in you, choosing what feels best for you... 

I knew a wonderful young lady who, some years ago, decided that the experience that she wanted was to be a lawyer. A wonderful profession, I don't poke fun at lawyers, they're very necessary...good lawyers. And Spirit says to her: You're too soft for that. It will be difficult for you. It's not who you are. Well anyway, the outside of her, the outside world, her parents, all the children in the family were lawyers... She proceeded down that path and one day she came to see me. And she said: I didn't listen to your advice. And she said: I'm faced with the terrible task of telling my family, especially my mom and dad, and my siblings, I don't want to be a lawyer anymore. We gave her the courage. Spirit gave her all the courage they could give, reinforced her heart. 

And at a big family event she announced that she was dropping, not renewing her credential to be a lawyer. And her parents were absolutely aghast, aghast. And her father said: But why Jane? She said: Dad, it doesn't work for me. It doesn't feel right. And he said: But child you will find your entire life that you do things that don't feel right. And she said: I've decided not to go down that path. I'm only going to do things that feel good to me. And he said: Well honey you could find yourself in a lot of trouble financially. She said: No, I don't think so dad. Because my God, my soul, my Spirit will take care of me. 

This same young lady eventually opened a very small shelter for lost animals, lost puppies and kittens. And she turned that into one of the biggest concerns of that particular profession in the nation today. Because she believed. And she believed what she was told by Spirit when Spirit said to her: Have you all you already need. Just like Yoda. Follow your dreams, pursue your dreams, all will be well. And because she believed that, her life changed so dramatically that her parents are just thrilled for her. And her father said to her: You know child, I never would have believed it. And she said: Dad, that's what I was talking about. And she said to him: Did you really want to be a lawyer. And he said: No, I did not. I did not want to be a lawyer. But my father was, and my grandfather was, and his father was. It was what we did. We became lawyers.

It is a very good idea, wherever possible, to surround yourself in a community of like-minded others. In other words, people who see you. People who hear who you are and support that. People who were there to literally add positive energy to whatever endeavor you might embark upon, to open as many doors as possible. The problem that has been out there for many years is so many people don't have or can't find a community where they feel they can go and be loved and appreciated. And so what I say to those of you who want that - create it. Create it yourself. If you have a friend who you believe might benefit from something you've been reading, share it. Talk about it. Find a book that you feel has helped to change your life. I'll mention a few - The Dragon Doesn't Live Here Anymore, you all know I support this book. Spiritual Unfoldment 1 by Grace Cooke (White Eagle). 

Get together and read a chapter or two a week. A different soul reading a different chapter each week. Build a community of what I'm going to call light-thinking and watch and see the miracles that happen as others begin to join your group. I've had to, on many occasion, limit the size of the groups that I have had around the country. Because it simply was not able to accommodate all the people that wanted to from our classes in San Francisco and Los Angeles. We have people that came out of our classes, went out, hooked back up again, created little mini, if you will, centers. It's just really groups of people that get together who are teaching what we taught them, who are helping open doors for others who may not have been able to attend the class or maybe wasn't aware that the class was available on-line from our webpage. But finding a community of like-minded souls, souls who refuse to be dragged down by the appearance of mind chatter, world mind chatter, personal mind chatter... There is an old saying "That there's got to be something better than this." I think that was from Sweet Charity, Broadway show.

You know, my friends, you all know the wonderful actress Shirley MacLaine. As I look back over the last 30 years, I cannot think of another soul who brought the awareness of life after death, Spirit, Spirit Guides, Angels. I can't think of anyone who ever risked their career as much as that wonderful person did. And because of who she was and because of her intention to serve and make a difference, she opened doors for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people. She would not be dissuaded. She absolutely held her ground. And in the end she won because the world has moved towards the light. And there are new people coming on-board today. There are more people than there have ever been saying: You know what? This doesn't work for me. This doesn't work. 

Walking in this world and the spiritual world at the same time, learning balance while walking in both worlds... You don't want to completely dismiss all of your life's lessons because you say they don't matter. Because that isn't true. You still will have your life's lessons. However, when you're armed with the awareness that you have one foot in one dimension and one foot in another dimension, you can literally, and I mean literally, motivate your life in wondrous ways. Your human self looks at a particular situation as a catastrophe. Your spiritual self will say: Ah, but that's only the appearance and what can we learn from this today? How can we be better? How can we use this to grow? How? 

You know folks, the best plants in the world, the best bushes, the best trees, all grow in the dark. We never grow in the light, we always grow towards the light. Armed with the essence that you are Spirit in human form and you connect to that form, the Source, if you will, you can sail through life in many, many, many different directions, always. But always knowing that that God is your Source and being very aware of how much the mind chatter tries to interfere with our peace. 

Having an awareness, knowing to balance between the two worlds helps create a belief within ourself. A belief that we are the Spirit operating in the human form. And when you learn to do that, there's this sense of a wonderful freedom. It's like a heavy weight suddenly is lifted from you and the divine you begins to emerge in such a way as to create all these wonderful possibilities. You see? The divine you has been pushed down behind your heart chakra. And it lives back there in the hopes that maybe someday its light will shine greater than the lies that the mind chatter and the world are creating for you. And it dreams to take you back to the essence, if you will, of who you are. Never pondering pain, never pondering how life is out there, never worrying about all the stuff on the television and the newspapers. Oh my goodness people, go to the garden please. Go to the garden. Feel the wonder of God surrounding you. Look at the clouds, see a kitten, see a baby with its parents. Go to the park, it's free. Feel God in action. 

Belief, knowing. Knowing that no matter what happens, no matter what transpires you will always be fine. You have nothing to fear. No matter how bad things get. Even if you get a pink slip. I had a wise friend who used to say to me: Kid, he said, there's only two ways any one thing can go for you - either fer ya or agin ya. And if you're prepared for either eventuality, you'll be just fine in life. Having the belief that says: I know in my heart I am okay. I know that Spirit is my co-pilot. I know God does not love anyone more than me. I believe. 

Folks, I have to bring up a difficult subject called patience. Now we all know patience, don't we? Patience is when we feel we would like for something to show up and Spirit says: Eventually. But before you can do that you have to do this. Patience. Setting your feet, and your heart, upon the path of a new experience, letting go of it, giving it to the Spirit and saying: To my highest good please, thy will be done on this issue. And believing that you are not being ignored, believing they're busy at work trying to manipulate energy and possibilities and people to bring you to that wonderful conclusion.

I will say to all of you there has never been anything in my life that I have ever asked for, ever, that I did not get. Mind you, there were times when I had to ask myself why I asked for certain things (laughing)... So the old adage of: Be careful what you wish for, pray for. But you are entitled you know. All of you. You are entitled to your heart's desire. That is the law of life. For Heaven's sake, my angels, have fun. Have fun. Don't take life so seriously that you ruin each day. 

I saw a bumper sticker and it just really pained me. It says: Life is what you do while you're waiting to die. And I thought: How horribly cynical. I wonder, I said to myself, if people actually believe that. Life is what you do - period. Life is what your dharma speaks to. Whatever your path speaks to. Every day of your life find something beautiful. I look at Bella in the morning, my little Shih Tzu. And she is small for a Shih Tzu. She looks like this little toy. And every day I say to her in the morning: Thank you for coming to visit my home. I love you very much. Even when you're naughty, I still love you.

You know our animal friends, our daily life, has the potential to teach us in a wonderful way...in a wonderful way. Have fun every day. Even though, my friends, you don't feel like having fun. Remember I told you that every day my dad used to wake up to make somebody laugh? He did. Every day of his life that he had an awareness. He did have dementia in the end. He made somebody laugh. He made me laugh every day. He used to pull tricks on me. He loved to tell me something and it not be true and then he'd laugh and laugh and laugh because he thought it was the funniest thing.

Have fun with life. Don't take it so seriously. The only part of you that will ever turn out for you is the little child inside of you, the baby angel having the human experience will always be there for you, will never let you down. Only the mind chatter is capable of doing that.


And that is our lesson for this evening.

Topic: New Year's Intentions
January 4, 2015





Hans:
Happy New Year everyone. I hope that you had a joyous and happy holiday season. And from our house to you, the best for this coming year. Our topic today is "New Year's Intentions." You know so many times I hear people talk about their New Year's Resolutions rather than their New Year's Intentions. I have a feeling inside of me that New Year's Resolutions sort of bind us. And then at the end of the year we punish ourself and are disappointed with ourself for not having lived up to those Resolutions. Folks, don't do that. Why don't we change that to "New Year's Intentions?" My intention in this coming year is to have an experience of the following - something like that. So that you give yourself the opportunity to allow Spirit to come in and work with you with those intentions rather than literally making sort of a demand from the Spirit by New Year's Resolutions - I'm going to do this and I'm going to do that. Folks, you don't know what the New Year holds for you. You don't know what the energies are for this year or where you're going. But, there is a divine flow of energy between you and Spirit that if you say: I would like the experience of...my intentions are the following... I'd like the experience of these intentions. Then you give Spirit an opportunity or a chance to begin to open a series of doors for you that those experiences, in one fashion or another, can be brought to you. And by the end of the year, you look back and say: Wow, look what happened. And you're not so bound by that narrow parameter that you've given yourself on your Resolutions. So I want you to change your Resolutions to Intentions. What do you think, Alfred?

Alfred:
The way I like to look at Resolutions is “I have this Resolution,” is “I'm going to do this.” And as we know, when you use the word "I" you isolate yourself through your humanness. Intention is “I am working with the universe, I have the intention, put the energy forth, have the vibration of this happening in my life and if it is for my highest good or whichever shape or form is for my highest good, then I agree to work with Spirit in order to create that, manifest that into my life.” So the big difference from my point of view is Resolutions about what "you" as an individual human can do, but intentions follow spiritual principles of course - are you working "with" the universe for your highest good? 

Hans:
Absolutely, Alfred. You know folks, this is a wonderful time of the year to begin anew. To set those Intentions. To try new things, to open ourself up to all kinds of new possibilities. We must not go backwards to go forwards. That wonderful song that Dionne Warwick sang about 40 years ago and she said: And a fool will loose tomorrow reaching back for yesterday. “Let all of those things that have been go." If there was love, pull them forward. If there was a teaching that you felt really helped you, pull it forward. Let the rest go. Clear a space in your heart and in your head for Spirit to present you with wonderful new opportunities. And since you are in charge of the type of opportunities you would like to see happen, then their job is to follow through with those doors that I talk about. Doors being of course, opportunities. People call them "windows of opportunities," I call them "doors of opportunities." It doesn't make any difference, same thing. 

But sometimes we get caught in the guilt of not living up to our New Year's Resolutions and we think: Ooop, there I didn't do it again this year. Oh, you know can't hold it. Shame on me. Don't do any of that. If you did have New Year's Resolutions last year and they didn't happen, laugh at it, giggle at it, poke fun at it. Don't punish yourself. Don't say: Well, I'm not strong enough, or I can't do it. No, no, no. This year we're going to wipe the slate clean. We're going to say: Okay, my intention in this coming year is to feel the following. And one of the Intentions that I say that I feel is very helpful for me, is I say: In this coming year, I would like to feel and have the intention of feeling love. And since love comes in many forms you open yourself up to all kinds of wonderful new things. It can be a lover, a loved one, it could be an animal, it could be bliss, it could be flowers. This is all kinds of wonderful forms of love. And in your Intentions include that one. Let love into your life in all of its form and you will find how peaceful you become in this New Year. Alright, Alfred, when did you start realizing that Intentions and Resolutions or however you want to call it, were completely different?

Alfred:
Again, a lot of it has to do with your opinion of what you think you would like in your life because us, as humans, on purpose, by design, don't know what we wanted in our life, we don't know, we don't remember what we asked to experience before we came here.

Hans:
No, that's correct.

Alfred:
Okay. It's through the inner search that we can connect who we truly are in order to feel and become aware of that which is for our highest good. Resolutions are all about what our humanness thinks we should do.

Hans:
Exactly.

Alfred:
Quit smoking, you know, things like that.

Hans:
My resolution is I'm going to lose 10 pounds.

Alfred:
Okay. Intentions, so much focus on the spiritual principles of working with the Other Side, of surrendering what possibilities you might imagine, trusting that the Other Side has your best interest at heart, believing that they know what you asked for, having faith that what arrives is according to your highest good, and then being grateful that which arrives, that which is in your life, that which may  not be in your life, regardless of whether you understand it or not. All of these are spiritual principles and Intentions lead us down that direction and as we've been saying time and time and time again, the simplest changes such as changing your perception about something can lead to the greatest life changes. So what we're talking about now is the perception difference between Resolutions and Intentions.

Hans:
Yes, absolutely. In your New Year's Intentions, say something like this: My intention is to love myself more this year than last year. My intention is to be kind to myself. My intention is not to find fault in myself. My intention is to find love. And again folks, remember that love comes in many, many different forms and expressions. So, let's change Resolutions to Intentions and watch how much changes between now and next New Year's. I think you'll be absolutely surprised.

Alfred:
And that's a wonderful point Hans, is Resolutions really focus on human aspects.

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
Okay. And Intentions really also touch on aspects of abundance, such as the abundance of love, the abundance of family, the abundance of friendship, the abundance of joy, the abundance of peace, harmony. All of those aspects you can have the intention to have in your life. So again when you're looking at your New Year's Intentions, look at it from a spiritual perspective. Look at it as if to say: If I was a spiritual being, what would be in my life all the time? I'd be connected, I'd have a high vibration, I'd pay attention to my Guidance, I'd go with the flow. All of those can be in your Intentions.

Hans:

Thank you Alfred, that's beautiful. Alfred, I think that will conclude the lesson for today because I understand we have quite a few questions today.

“Holiday Peacefulness” - by Hans Christian King

and Alfred Ricci www.AlfredRicci.com
Topic: Holiday Peacefulness
December 28, 2014






Hans:
Hello everyone. Today's topic is "Holiday Peacefulness." One of the things that I recommend that people do is remember the excess mind chatter on this particular subject. And so before you go into an event where the people are present, you need to be very still. Sit down, be very still. And say: I choose this day not to listen to my mind chatter. I choose this day to no longer be wounded, to be hurt by past memories with this family. I choose to take today and turn my life around by accepting them just as they are. Not reacting to anything that is said, just blessing them. You don't have to say that out loud. But you don't have to respond to anything that's said either. You can always say: I choose to be peaceful. It will make them crazy. But it's very contagious actually, Alfred.

Alfred:
Okay. So Hans can you tell people how to let go of the need to fix family members? We really love our family, we want them to be as happy as we are, but what are the ways we could just let the family members be?

Hans:
What if you found out guys, all of you, what if you found out that there wasn't anything wrong? What if you found out it was your perception that was making the other person wrong? The other person doesn't think they're wrong. You do. So what if you just loved them and accept them? You may not agree with their behavior, my friends. But having no judgment is offering love, basically. So if you just love your family, with no judgment, don't try to fix anyone. Be that light you want to see in the world. Be that change you want to see in your family. And you'll be amazed when people say: You don't seem to be angry anymore. Say: No, I'm not. And they will say: Well how did you do that? I found love in my heart for everyone. And that's hard to do, my friends, because we have so many memories of who did what to who and when and who can sit next to who and who shouldn't be invited... All that stuff is humanness. All that stuff, all the anger is all humanness. That's the absence of God in your thinking. That's the absence of Spirit in your actions. Because the truth of the matter is none of them are wrong. It's your perception of what went on that caused you to have a judgment. But what you can't do is sit inside of them and listen to what they say about you and that they think you have a judgment. So by simply putting love in the place of judgment, and acceptance in the place of anger, all of the pain begins to dissipate. 

I had a dear lady client that I had known for over 25 years and she hadn't been home to see her family in 20. And she had all of these reasons about what her brother and sister did to her, what her father and mother did to her, and she had magnified this so out of true proportions that she never went back to the family and every year she didn't go back she reminded herself of why she wasn't going and she built it and she built it and she built it. And Spirit said to her: This year you're going back. We request that you go back with no judgment and only love in your heart. She said: They'll tear me to shreds. And Guidance said to her: No, only you can do that. They will not tear you to shreds. She went and she called me before she got on the plane in San Francisco, she was going to New Jersey, she called me, she said: I'll never make this. And I said: Go. She went. And she said before she went into the room she did the exercise that we gave her and she said when she went in people ran up to her and hugged her. Her mother cried, her father cried, brother and sister cried, they loved on her. We have missed you so. Where have you been? What did we do that ever made you so upset? She said: I never would have believed it. Even when Hans, you told me, I couldn't bring myself to believe it. I had caused all of the pain in my own heart. Folks, when you go to be with friends and people that you think there's a problem with, put love in your heart, put Spirit in your actions, you'll be amazed at what happens.

Alfred:
And this is what we want to get to is all of these inner peace practices. Start them during the holidays - non-judgment, letting go of the past, being an example of your beliefs, going within. All of these things we've been talking about, start them during the holidays but apply them to everybody. And that's really difficult. But if you can do them with your family...

Hans:
You can do it with anybody.

Alfred:
...you can do it with anybody. That's the point. Don't just do non-judgment, letting go of your past during the holidays. Let's talk about doing this...

Hans:
Let this be the platform for the rest of your life.

Alfred:
Exactly, for the rest of the year...

Hans:
Or for the rest of your life.

Alfred:
This is the way to give yourself the greatest gift possible – inner joy, happiness and peace, all year round. What do you think about that Hans?

Hans:
I think it's perfect because it's true. And what I'm trying to teach you tonight is our perceptions become oftentimes our worst enemies. Our perceptions become anger, fear, doubt, judgment. Our perceptions are nothing more than a filter that we have put in front of us so that we don't get hurt and we view through that. I remember, if all of you remember, the movie "Auntie Mame," for instance, with Rosalind Russell. What a fun, wonderful Christmas movie. In fact I'm going to watch it tomorrow as I do every holiday. But they decided to make it into a movie and for reasons unknown to anyone, they decided not to use Rosalind Russell but they decided to use Lucy. Now an incredible actress of her own and there's no doubt whatsoever. But she insisted, absolutely insisted, that they shoot her through gauze. And it was fuzzy and cloudy and my dear friend Hal King was the make-up artist for her for over 25 years. And he said they made it almost impossible to almost see her. That's what her perception said she wasn't good enough the way she was. She wasn't perfect. So she needed to shoot that through the gauze. 

What I'm saying to you is you do not need any filter between you and love. You already are love. You are already the best you will ever be for God. For those of you who are alone this year, and there are millions of you, this is an opportunity to remind yourself that in fact you are not alone. In fact, your God doesn't love anyone more than you as you hear me say each week. Find something to do that makes you smile. Back in the day Alfred used to say: Go find a flower and just look at it. There's such beauty in the flower. It doesn't have to demonstrate who it is, it radiates who it is. And if you're alone, it's a terrible word, I don't like that word, but if you're not with someone or a group, a family, that's the opportunity of a lifetime that a lot of spiritual people miss. The value of being by yourself during major events in your life so that you can look in that mirror. You know I used to give workshops about 25 years ago, and I would hand everybody who came to the workshop a mirror. And one of the exercises was I want you to look in this mirror and then tell me who you see. Do you know that most people, my dear friends, could not do it. And that was our opening round, that really scared them. Most people could not tell me who they saw in that mirror until one little old lady in one class said it all. Every bit of 80, and she had followed me for many, many years, and she looked in the mirror, she held it up to her face on the side, and she says: Hans, I see love. And I said: Margaret, that's the answer. I see love. Folks, when you go to that mirror before you go anywhere, or present yourself for an interview for a job, before you go home to the family that's all screaming and hollering at each other, go look in the mirror and present yourself Love. That is who you are. It doesn't matter what anybody else sees or anybody else thinks. So, in the moment, when you have it, Alfred likes to refer to it as a dysfunctional organization - your family, find the joy and the humor in who they are and the love in who you are by loving them anyway. Okay?

Alfred:
And Lord knows if you can learn to be just pure love around your family, which the majority of old souls have "interesting" families, if you can do that, then you can be love with anyone.

Hans:
Something in that wonderful thing that was written by Anonymous - somewhere in there he or she writes "If you can keep your head when everything and everyone else around you is losing theirs... " And I thought, yeah. If you can do that, you just found your peace. And folks, when you find your love, you find your peace. 

Alfred:
So the holidays are just a wonderful opportunity to...

Hans:
All around, yes.

Alfred:
... practice love, practice patience, unconditional love, non-judgment – the basics. To practice them with your family...

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
... and then continue to practice them for the rest of the year. That's what we're telling you is the way inner peace and happiness.

Hans:

Alfred, you brought something up a little bit ago that I think is really important for everybody to hear and then I came in and sort of expounded on it a little. Folks, what we're teaching you today should not be a once a year occurrence. It should be "always." Starting with I am this and I will be this and this is how I'm going to operate out for the rest of this year and the rest of my life. So use the catalyst of the holidays perhaps to broaden your understanding a little here and then carry that throughout the year and throughout your life. I want to take this opportunity to say to everyone, look forward to this New Year. Be ever so grateful of the one you just had. For many of you many prayers that you had prayed for, did come true. For many of you, some of your worst fears came true. However, remember now that it's done. That was then, this is now. And make a promise to yourself to discover more of who you are. Learn to spend a little more time with yourself. Learn to be less judgmental, especially towards people who don't live up to decent expectations that you have, like friendship and warmth and love. Have no judgment of them because you don't know who they actually are. Even though they could be your sister, your brother, your mother, your father, you don't know inside of them who they really are. Bless them. Ask Spirit to bring them everything they need to discover who they are and to make their life of value. Okay, Alfred I think that will conclude the topic for today.

Topic: Family and Friends During the Holidays – Handling Differences
December 22, 2014






Hans:
So our topic for today "Family and Friends During the Holidays." How do we handle those differences? First of all, you don't point out how wrong they are. Remember, they're entitled to be where they are, and they're entitled to have their opinions. And it's not our job, it's not your job, folks, to try to change them. Mahatma Gandhi once said: Be the change you want to see in the world. So that's what's important. Do not debate your truth. Do not try to convince anybody of your truth. If someone were to say to you: How did you get where you are? How did you become so peaceful? That's another matter. Explain it as best you can without coming from a place that says I am correct and you are wrong. Explain who you are and how you arrived at your peace, and it's from that place that they have an opportunity to grow. Not by lecturing them. Now, if somebody is ragging on you and saying:  You know what are you talking about? You don't know what you're talking about. You know here's the right way and all that... Remember what I've taught you all these years. Well, what do we say: Not my problem. That's they key. And trying to say: Not my problem, without having some guilt attached to it. Right, Alfred?

Alfred:
Yes, because they are family and that's the real issue is how can we spiritual speakers talk to them? Be there for family members, listen to our brothers and sisters, our parent's point of view, and still love them knowing they are on a different path than what we're at. And one of the most basic, fundamental, life-changing lessons is "have no opinion"...

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
...have no judgment.

Hans:
In other words, Alfred, I think what we're both trying to say is: Don't make them wrong. Let them have their own belief system. Do not argue your point. Say: Well, I love you and bless you where you are. This will drive them crazy for one thing. But it's very important that you're only there folks to help someone who asks to be helped. That's all. But you're going to have people out there in your family and in your daily life, your friends for instance, who basically are angry, who basically don't understand your point of view, or may be a little jealous of your position, or just who don't get you or just can't see you... and that could be a mother and a father or a brother.. could be a best friend sometimes. But remember something, they're entitled to their opinion and it is not our job to change anyone. Let your light shine that others might see you and where you are and there will be people who would like to be part of that light. But getting confrontational, arguing with people, trying to help, wanting them to see your point of view – that is not your problem. That is their problem. Okay? Alfred, you can remember back when during the holidays, there were family gatherings. Remember some of the dysfunction during those times?

Alfred:
Oh, I'm sure there's so many people out there who remember, or still are going through, who can show up, who's not allowed to show up, and for those people who are showing up, who can sit next to who, who can sit across from who, who has to be separated from who, and actually having a serious discussion about that.

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
Yes.

Hans:
You know Alfred, when you first told me that, I have to tell you, I've never had that experience. I was absolutely shocked that your family couldn't let so-and-so sit across from so-and-so and they couldn't invite so-and-so or so-and-so wouldn't come. I was absolutely amazed. And I still am to this day that that is how people would treat this holiday.

Alfred:
But I think a lot of our listeners want to hear about how do you relate to relatives and friends that say and act in ways that are simply not truth - spiritual truth? How do you get along. Especially during the Holidays?

Hans:
Then basically you don't discuss it. If they wish to push you and they want to be confrontational, your job is to say: I love you and I respect your opinion. That's it. Do not engage them in the conversation, because they are looking to pick a fight. They want their point of view to triumph. And the only way it can is if you agree to it. And if there's no place in you to agree to it, they will give up. Alfred, you have a wonderful statement that you say to people sometimes: I love you anyway.

Alfred:
Yes...

Hans:
There's a lot of power in that statement.

Alfred:
...and that's the thing to do is to just be love, Is just to be caring, is just to be helpful, is just to be there and be helpful, be caring, be loving, be as Hans was saying, inside yourself, be that example. But just not discuss this stuff. You show the example and be the example of what you believe. As much as possible, love everyone, care about everyone, try not to have an opinion. Just smile, just be peaceful regardless of what's going on, who's arguing about what, who's talking about who, your job is to stay peaceful.

Hans:
You just brought up one very important thing, Alfred. People will try to engage you about other people. You, yourself know this in your own family. And they will try to engage you - do you hear what so-and-so did? Can you believe that so-and-so did this or said this about some... Do not engage in gossip about others, children. Because what they will say about others, they will say about you. Back away from it and always say to Spirit: Please bless them. Help them to find their way. Help them to find their light that is best for them. That's what I do folks. And folks I have wonderful clients out there, and you know who you are, who have terrible relationships with a family member. Sometimes that family member has the appearance they're trying to hurt you, trying to take something away from you. Many times because a parent or parents have died, there's an estate and oh my God, nothing tears a family up more than an estate and the rivalry that goes on. Even though you may be the most loving, caring, kind person, there may be somebody in your family who feels it's necessary to attack you and hurt you. That usually comes from a very sad and jealous place inside of themselves. But meanwhile, the appearance is they have the power to really hurt you emotionally. Always remember, no matter how hard it may be in that moment to say to Spirit: Bless that person, help them please, show them where they need to be, and let  the light shine on the subject we are engaged with, that we are involved with. Add the power of the light to it. Sometimes you don't see results right away. But over time, Spirit will bring the light, for sure. Remember light always follows darkness...always, okay? So use this as a time to rejoice the power within you and let the light of the God-force, the light of Spirit to shine upon you. So this is an important time to learn to be peaceful in the appearance of craziness, in the appearance of dysfunction. You know this, right Alfred?

Alfred:
Yes, is not to believe what is going around, not to believe what other people say, not to fall into the trap of getting sucked into "drama." What someone supposedly did, what someone supposedly said, your job as a spiritual soul, is to be "peaceful," is not to have anything that's going on around you knock you off your center. Again one of the most basic teachings we've been going over, especially on this show, is what someone else says or does is not your problem.

Hans:
Is not your problem ever...

Alfred:
...it's if what someone else says or does, does knock you off your center, that is your problem.

Hans:
Absolutely Alfred, that's correct. What someone thinks about you is none of your business, but what you think of what they think of you should be very much your concern.

Alfred:
Or anyone... or your cousin, or your parents, or your uncles, or your aunts or your friends...

Hans:
Yes, it doesn't matter who it is. Exactly...

Alfred:
...whatever anybody says or does...

Hans:
...has nothing to do with you.

Alfred:
...about anybody else. It doesn't even have to do with you, it could be your brother's in a fight with an uncle, it's your mother says something about your cousin...

Hans:
Exactly. You know Alfred, a while back I was talking to a dear lady and she said to me: You know Hans, my mother said this and that about me and only the other day she said: Well, I was right, you're never going to amount to anything. And she said: This has wounded me so badly. And I said: Why? She said: Because of what she said. I said: But what she said has nothing to do with you. She said: Well, certainly, it was directed at me. I said: No, it wasn't. This was not a statement of who you are, angel. This is a statement of where she's at. No, they're two different things. Separate yourself from somebody's else's rage, separate yourself from somebody else's anger or opinion. It has nothing children, listen again, this has nothing to do with who you are. And there are times when it appears that God doesn't see us, God doesn't hear us, the Spirit has abandoned us when these people run amok and start hurting us. But therein is the lesson that you chose to learn. That lesson was to learn to rise above the appearance of the difficulty of the sadness. To be better than to be identified with that sort of behavior. Because again, as Alfred and I are pointing out to you, it has utterly nothing to do with you.

Alfred:
And notice what we're talking about here. Is we're talking about very basic spiritual principles. What we're saying is: Treat your family, treat your friends like the way you treat anybody else.

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
The issue that we've seen year after year after year is people think well, they're family, these spiritual principles don't apply to them. Of course they're going to love me. Of course they're going to care. I don't understand why they're being mean. And that's where you get yourself in trouble...

Hans:
That's exactly true. You get yourself in trouble.

Alfred:
...is you apply these basic principles to your family and friends just like you do to  anybody else.

Hans:
You want to talk at this normal level. You want to be involved with them at the new level you've found. But they can't hear you, folks. They can't see who you are. So don't try. If somebody comes out from the shadows and said: I don't exactly know what you're talking about, but it feels good in my heart. Would you mind explaining a little to me? Absolutely, go for it. You can help anybody who asked to be helped. But if somebody has a judgment and then says: Help me. Don't bother with them. Don't bother with them folks, move on. Let your light shine. Let your light show you the way. Because there is no relationship on earth that is more precious to you than you to you. That's the gift that God gave you. Because inside of each and every one of you lies the power of the God-force, lies the power of the Spirit – you are connected at that level – always. And the only thing that can bring you down is your own consciousness. That's all. 

Alfred:
And one point I'd like to tell everyone... Well, what is that confusion, what is the feeling when you get confused to say: Well, they're my family. Of course they're supposed to love me. Of course they're supposed to support me. Of course they're supposed to be generous and loving and kind. And what happens to you in that internal conflict when they're not? What is going on here when you say: I don't understand this. They're supposed to be family and they're not. And so many of us get torn apart because something inside says: Well, they're supposed to be supportive and loving. How come they're tearing each other apart and being mean? 

Let me explain this in a very simple way. For those of you who are spiritual, you will find that inner deep “knowing” that your family and friends should be loving and caring and supportive and generous and always there. Okay? If they, themselves, are not spiritual, then it doesn't apply. However, what it does apply to is your family and friends in Spirit. They love you unconditionally. They are always there for you. They are there to support you and to guide you. And that is one of the hugest benefits of doing Automatic Writing is you form a relationship with those family and friends that you thought should always be there. And that's part of Intuitive Development is to get you a stronger relationship with those family and friends who are in Spirit and who understand: Yes, that's the way you're supposed to behave. You're always supposed to love everyone. You're always supposed to care. You're always supposed to be supportive. And that is what comes through when you form a relationship with your family and friends on the other side. Why? Because they're in Spirit. So if you have that instinct, and you're being torn apart, you have to realize the simple fact - those family members who are not spiritual, are not going to act that way.

Hans:
Alfred, do you remember any number of years ago when you finally heard the message that you are now giving others, for yourself and your family? Do you remember how things began to change?

Alfred:
Yes.

Hans:
When you stopped being hurt by actions from your family? 

Alfred:
Yes, and there's so many things that seem like basic spiritual teachings in this lesson, but if you go through and actually apply them, your life will change and these basic spiritual lessons of: Not my problem. Just be peaceful. Have no judgment of them. Just be loving. Be peaceful. This will change your life. I carried hell with me for 24 years about my family - how they abused me, how they abandoned me, how my life was ruined because of them. And then one day I woke up and said: Oh, that's not true. And all of a sudden, all that hate, that anger, that disappointment - dissolves.

Hans:
Absolutely.

Alfred:
Because it's not the truth. The truth is, it's not your problem, it's their problem.

Hans:
That is right. And kids, when you get that, and Alfred's about as thick-headed as you can get, sorry Alfred...

Alfred:
It's the truth.

Hans:
It's the truth. (Hans laughing) He's about as thick-headed as you can get and for him to get that... I watched his demeanor, I watched everything about him soften. And I watched the anger begin to dissolve. And I watched him have a resolve to not be hurt by this anymore. And folks, for all of you, there's going to be times when a mother or a father, a sister or a brother says and/or does things to you and deliberately intends to hurt you... It could even be a legal action, and deliberately intends to hurt you, defend yourself legally, but don't take it personally. That's the key. Don't let the statement of somebody else disturb your ease, disturb your peace, okay? Alrighty, I think that will conclude the lesson for today.

Topic: The Law of Unconditional Love
December 12, 2014






Hans:
Hello everybody. What a beautiful day today and we're so blessed to have God in our life. Today I want to talk about the Universal Law of Unconditional Love. This is a really difficult lesson because in our world, as we go through our daily lives doing all the things that we have put in motion to do, we come across situations, we come across people, circumstances, things, that just, may I say, just tick us off, make us upset, press our buttons... a friend says something that you thought was unkind, or a parent calls and tells you they were disappointed in you about something. And it's just really hard to just say: You know what, I love them, I bless them, I release my judgment of this. And folks, when we look at the news and hear all the things that are going on every day, it's hard to remember that we're in a world of illusion that has been created by mankind. There is no reality to what is going on. It's just different people's illusions of what should be. And of course when you turn on your television, what you have is a bunch of pundits, a bunch of people who surmise they know something, that they're going to tell you how it really is. But all it is is their opinion. Nothing more kids, nothing more. Simply their opinion. So the wonderful thing about unconditional love, if we put it in our heart, is that we begin to view life a bit differently. Okay? A bit differently. We say: Oh wait a minute, I'm not going there because I'm going to get a judgment in there and that's not what I want to do. That's not where I want to be. And so, when we learn to filter the appearance of reality, we stop being bothered and hurt by it. 

I had a friend who called me recently and she was very, very concerned because she thought I had said something. What she heard was that I was unhappy with her or displeased with her. And I had her go back and read the email that she sent me about her hurt. And I paused here for a moment. I said: Where you're saying this, where this is coming from, what is that for you? Did you hear me say those words? And she said: No, I didn't. But I thought the way you had written it was that you were displeased with me. I said: Well, I'm a very big boy now and I'm capable of telling you if I'm displeased with you and I wasn't. But I wonder why you're coming from that place. Where in you, does what I was saying, turn into a condemnation? And so we sat down and we had a look at it. And what she saw was through her childhood, she had learned to view things a little bit askew because she couldn't figure out what was going on. And so her mind chatter simply made up what she perceives the reality might be. 

And there's an old saying that you have heard me say for many years that says: You see what you look for, you know. And if you're slightly depressed, or there's a dark cloud hanging over you and you're walking around with it, you will see depressing things children. You will see it. If you're slightly depressed, nothing you're doing will seem like it fits, seem like it's real. But if you stop for a moment and you say: From this day forward, I'm deciding not to listen to anything but unconditional love. I'm going to give it and I'm going to be available for it. This brings up another problem. Because, Alfred, haven't you noticed that so many people find that maybe they're not good enough for unconditional love?

Alfred:
And it's really those aspects of mind chatter, of humanness, that take us away from our spiritual true selves. It's when we are as Spirit, expressing unconditional love as our natural state, but what really limits us is the mind chatter, the humanness of fear, of judgment, of doubt. Okay? It's those areas or basically any aspects of humanness that limit us from vibrating, from being as Spirit and from expressing unconditional love effortlessly.

Hans:
You know Alfred, in the Spirit there is no such thing as depression. There is only unconditional love, not conditional love. So we actually, Alfred, come from, our resource actually, is unconditional love.

Alfred:
Yes, it's our mind chatter, our humanness that puts conditions on the love. And the definition of unconditional is there is nothing. And that is true spirituality is there is no judgment, there is no opinion, there is no fear, there is no doubt. And it is by removing those things, by doing the inner work, that you're more able, more freely able, more effortlessly able to express unconditional love.

Hans:
Absolutely. You know Alfred, for many years one of my primary teachings has been: What if you found out that nothing was wrong? Absolutely nothing. That all the pain comes out of your mind's perception of what is real. Not what is real. Because the only reality is love. The only true reality is God. And the unconditional love that you have from the Spirit World is unconditional at all times. So any time you say to me: Well, God must not love me or why isn't God protecting me... All this, all of these things, come out of a place of conditional love which is what your mind programs you to see. 

You know I had one parent who said to her daughter: You know if you loved me you wouldn't treat me this way. Well, that child grew up that way. She grew up thinking she wasn't capable of giving unconditional love. I said: No, that's just only your mother's perception of who you are and what you're doing and saying. If we all go back and we look at how our behavior from 20 or 30 years ago, we're not that same person. As we have grown, the Spirit has grown with us and brought us forward. But they keep pointing out to us unconditional love. Unconditional love. This is the key of life. Unconditional love. Not being offended by someone else's thoughts. Not offending somebody else by our thoughts. Any time we start to develop a negative thought, we need to stop for a moment and say: Wait a minute. I don't really know this person. I'm judging their behavior. But then, am I judging them as well? I don't know them. I don't know where they've come from. Native American peoples used to say: Judge no man unless you walk a mile in his moccasins. Very true. I taught you for years folks that who somebody is and their behavior are always two different things. 

Folks, spiritual opinion as given to me is: That all is perfect. All is in perfect right order. Nothing is wrong. But our mind chatter is so active in pointing out this individual, or that situation, and then trying to comprehend somebody else's thinking, which is of course totally impossible. Deal with your own emotion. Alfred used to say, back in the day, when he was beginning to develop himself... One of the things Spirit told him to do was if you want to see perfect and unconditional love, go look at a flower. Remember that Alfred?

Alfred:
Absolutely and it is the separation of your true self from that which limits you. It is functioning as who you truly are that opens you. It is removing the mind chatter that has to do with fear, with judgment, with opinion, that allows you to more freely express yourself as who you truly are – as a loving spirit. These are the paths that we try to help you with in order to be happy here, more blissful, more loving on a daily basis.

Hans:
Every time I see someone who I think is in a difficult situation, I always say to Spirit: Bless that person please. Surround them in pure white light. Help them to understand whatever lesson there may be in this for them. And bring all that they need to them that they might discover who they are and to see past this illusion for themselves. That's really, really important. I tell the story of a young lady that I met may years ago in Carmel, California and she had wanted, very badly, to design fabrics I think, some of you have heard this before, and every time she designed a fabric, it looked like a batik from Bali. And one day her grandmother, she was 17 then, sent her to see me and in the process of her reading I said: You know you have some connection with Bali. And she said: Funnily enough, you know I've always wanted to go there and she said: I'm not certain why. And I pointed out that she had some connection with artwork and she said: Well I like to do batiks and she said: I feel that there's some connection but I don't know what it is. And I said: Well you won't discover it until you go to Bali. Well she says: Well I have no money for that Hans. I think I have $600.00 in my savings account. Right now that isn't going to happen, but it could happen one day perhaps. 

Well the grandmother heard the reading. Because in those days I used to tape them. Anybody remember taping? And she heard that and when the granddaughter, for her 18th birthday, the grandmother gave her a ticket and a two week all expense paid trip to Bali. And the girl came to see me and what Spirit said to her was: Keep your eyes and your ears open with no perception of finding anything. Just go and be. Well ,she did and she still lives there today. She married an Australian boy. She began to design fabrics and her fabrics sell at Neiman Marcus... all the big stores, all around the world. And she's very famous. And she sent me an email once and she said: All I needed to do was be quiet and accept the unconditional love that God was giving me at that moment. And she said: That's what I've tried to give back. She went not knowing.

Alfred:
Isn't that one of the hardest lessons Hans? Is just not to “give” unconditional love but be wiling to “accept” unconditional love?

Hans:
That's what I was trying to say earlier, Alfred. Absolutely. It's much easier to give than to receive. Because when we receive our little boy and our little girl inside us is saying: Uh, I wonder why they're giving me this. Do I deserve this? What are they up to? I didn't ask for this. And starts to go through a whole series of mind boggling mind chatter. When you just should say: Thank you. Oh my gosh, this is wonderful! Have you ever had a little child, Alfred, give you a flower or give you a little painting that they have drawn for you? It's huge. It's huge.

Alfred:
Yes, it's not the size or the value of the present. It's that they gave it to you with love.

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
And a lot of times you'll hear that about owners or cooks of restaurants is that they're not serving food, it's that they're serving love one plate at a time.

Hans:
Absolutely, absolutely. And that's what they're well known for is individual love. I knew a restaurant in Los Angeles and it's name was King's Foreign Land and it was a very upscale 
Oriental restaurant. Mr. King was a wonderful guy, he came from Hong Kong. But when you sat down, the owner would come to you and bring the chef and they would say: What are you looking to taste tonight? How are you feeling? What would you like us to do? They never had a menu. And they would create these incredible meals based on what somebody was feeling that night. That is unconditional love. And if there were a little more of it in this world we would all be better off. You see folks, unconditional love means you have no judgment. How's that for a tough one? 

I know some of the most beautiful people in this world who still suffer from judgment – the appearance of what's wrong. Nothing is wrong, it's our perception of what's going on. Alfred fought me on this one for quite a long time. I said: That's only your perception. And he would get... being a Sicilian, he would get very crabby. He says: No, I can see it's hurt... My dad was the same. He used to say to me: Where is my God? Why is my God letting this happen to these people? Filled with love, filled with compassion, but he couldn't understand pain. Okay? He couldn't understand pain. I'll tell you one thing about the lesson of unconditional love, Alfred, the reason I'm cutting this short a little bit today is because people are really thinking about what we're saying.

Alfred:
Yes, there was a lot in that lesson. There really was.

Hans:
There really was.

Alfred:
I mean it is not about loving. It is about allowing yourself to let go of judgment, let go of opinion, let go of fear, so that you can naturally be a loving soul, a loving spirit.

Hans:
That's right.

Alfred:
It's like if you're trying to be happy, don't try to make yourself happy.

Hans:
No.

Alfred:
