Topic: Letting Go to Receive
October 31, 2015


HANS:
Hi everyone. Today’s topic is “Letting Go to Receive.” I got quite a few emails from you this week about, “Hansie, I’ve identified my ‘stuck space’ what I need to let go of, and also what i don’t seem to be able to let go of. Even though I know in my heart it doesn’t serve me anymore, I’m just having a really hard time letting go.”

You’re getting fearful of letting go. It’s a big thing.

ALFRED:
It’s huge. Even from extremely educated people I have heard - well, it’s the devil I know, and what happens if the devil I don’t know is worse than the devil I know? It’s a very difficult situation to be in fear of what you don’t know. Letting go of what you do know, regardless how painful what you do know is.

HANS:
It’s that old blank page thing that I do with my clients. I say, “Here, I’ve just written your whole life would you rather have this page or,” and I turn it over to an empty page, “this page.” Seventy-five per cent of people choose the page that’s already written on. The gift you give yourself is when you say, “I’m letting this page go.”

So that’s what some of you are facing right now. Letting go of the page you identify with that doesn’t work anymore.

ALFRED:
Exactly. And one is control - what your brain understands - the complete opposite has to do with trust,
surrender, belief. Those are very intangible things. And that’s the way Spirit works. Belief and trust in the intangible.

HANS:
Yes. You’re saying to your Guides, you’re saying to Spirit, “I trust you, even though I may be fearful, I’m going to do it anyway because I know you will handle what is best for me.”

ALFRED:
And that’s what we are trying to get to in the letting go process. If you find that you are hesitant, then we want you to take a look at it quite simply. The hesitant aspect of you has to do with your human-ness. Relying on your human-ness in understanding what you do. The other aspect has to do with surrendering. Surrendering is the basis for every single spiritual teaching in the universe. Surrender. Let go of what is removing yourself from your human-ness. Unfortunately it’s a little difficult to have both. If you want to be spiritual but you want to hold onto things, that’s probably why you get stuck.

HANS:
It’s not, Alfred, that the God Force, the Spirit doesn’t love them. It’s just, when you won’t go past a place you know already is a dead zone, you give Spirit no space to help you.

ALFRED:
That’s exactly it. Spirit wants to see trust. They want to see that you are willing to work with Them - willing to be a partner with Spirit.

HANS:
Very important - be a partner with Spirit.

ALFRED:
It’s not that you say, “Well, I’ll let go of my relationship when I see another relationship is available.”

HANS:
That’s not trusting.

ALFRED:
Unfortunately, that’s not the way the universe works. It starts with trust and belief.

HANS:
When you ask Spirit for the experience like I taught you, you have to be willing to show Spirit that you’re willing to let go of what doesn’t work anymore. If you’re asking Spirit, “I would like a new relationship, but I’m going to hang on to my old one,” you’re saying to Spirit, “I don’t trust you. I don’t believe if I let go of this I’ll ever get anything else.” All of us have had friends like that. It isn’t true. When you say, “I’m going to let go of this because I know it’s no longer good for me, it’s not in my best interest.” It may have been then but it’s no longer now. You just say, “Please present me with the doors…” That’s when you really begin to move forward. It’s very difficult letting go of things we think benefit us when we know that they’re not.

ALFRED:
And that is where spiritual growth happens.

HANS:
That’s right.

ALFRED:
When you go out of your comfort zone and into a place of trusting. That is spiritual growth. And that leads us to our second topic. 

Why? Why do you need to let go? Why do you need to let go in order to get something?

HANS:
In the other room, I have a glass of iced tea. I have this iced tea and I change my mind and I only have one clean glass. I think I would like some juice instead of iced tea. What do I have to do with the iced tea? I have to pour it out. I have to rinse the glass out. Then I have to pour the juice. Such is spirituality in movement. You can’t have and get at the same time. You have to open your hand and let go of what you’re doing and then you can say what you’d like the experience of. That’s a key element. I’m willing to let go if I can see the other one first.

ALFRED:
That doesn’t leave Spirit any room to work with you. 

HANS:
No, it doesn’t.

ALFRED:
Spirit and you would be better off working from a blank slate. A painter starts with a blank canvas.

HANS:
A sculptor starts with a ball of clay.

ALFRED:
That’s a huge reason why, spiritually speaking, it’s better to let go, go into a void, a space of nothingness, a place of reflection and then wait to work with the other side in co-operation and trust. You’re creating a space where there’s nothing that’s going to be interfering if something comes in. It’s not just simply trusting that the other side will help you, it’s making sure there’s a space, a clear space without interference. Very similar to meditation. When you’re in meditation what do you want? You want to make sure there’s no interference. Whenever you’re working with the other side, you want a nice clean blank slate, as much as possible to work with the other side.

HANS:
That’s nicely put - as much as possible - sometimes it takes people some time longer. When I first met Alfred ten years ago, he was dealing with a very complicated family problem.

ALFRED:
That’s putting it mildly.

HANS:
Yes. It wrenched his soul. It wrenched his heart, to the point where he would do really stupid things. Not hurt anybody, but hurt himself. One day he said, “I don’t understand what you mean, let it go?” Let it go. It’s your perception of the matter that’s hurting you. Let it go. Don’t be involved anymore. Don’t write letters anymore. Don’t answer the phone. Let it all go. Because what has happened is that you’re caught up in the drama. The appearance of the drama. Now he teaches this. So when someone says to Alfred, “I don’t know how to let go.” He says, “Stop funding energy to it!” Which is what Spirit taught him.

ALFRED:
And energetically, cut your energetic ties to it. Stop thinking about it. Stop trying to figure it out. Stop asking why? Look at expectations you have. Expectations and judgments of family - they’re family! They’re supposed to be like this or that.

HANS:
That’s a big one.

ALFRED:
All that has to do with your human connection to it. So what we’re talking about here is with the understanding in working with the other side, there should be a clean slate. To do that you need to look at the ties that have energetic and emotional ties to whatever it is, especially family.

HANS:
So Alfred has learned that if he lets it go, it gets handled on its own. And that’s the key.

ALFRED:
That’s what happens when you surrender it, when you trust, all of a sudden you open yourself up to an army of supporters who want to help you.

HANS:
Yes.

ALFRED:
You have to give it to them. You have to release control. You have to tell them I trust you. I surrender it to you, for them to come into that space and work with you.

HANS:
I think it’s very important that people realize how much Spirit is actually there for them. They’re just waiting for you to make up your mind. Spirit won’t tell you what to do, or run your life. That’s your job. Their job is to provide the space after you ask for it.

So, from now on for everybody - Letting go is getting. Letting go is gaining. Letting go is freedom.

ALFRED:
Creating a blank space is a nice empty bucket, a nice clean glass.

HANS:
Why do people look at a blank space and think there’s something wrong? Because there’s nothing there?

ALFRED:
Because it’s the opposite of human. Human is all about getting, acquiring. We’re saying, “No. Surrendering, letting go creates a space for Spirit to come into your life. If you’re acquiring and controlling, there’s no space for Spirit to enter your life.”

HANS:
And folks, like with finances… Let’s say you get a little low in finances and that old devil fear starts to come in. If you say to yourself, “Oh, this is the harbinger.” This is the announcer of new money - because it’s true. You never stay down there. Ever. Haven’t you noticed you always recover? You always come back up. Always. It’s simply a time and a lesson in your life.

So letting go of the relationships, letting go of fear, of work issues, letting go of everything - is the beginning of your new beginning.

I think that will conclude the lesson for today.

Topic: Communicating With Spirit

August 8, 2015

HANS:

The topic for today is "Communicating With Spirit: Intuitive Development."  Hello everyone. Welcome, welcome. What a beautiful day. I'm just looking out my windows here at all the beautiful trees. I have Pine Trees, Birch Trees, Ash Trees, Poplar Trees... You name it, it's out here. A wonderful day today here in Asheville, North Carolina. 

I've been getting a few questions from people who say: How do I know what kind of gift I have? Well as most of you know, there's the ability to be clairsentient. There's the ability to be clairvoyant... clairaudient... some of you have healing energies... some of you have a combination of all of these. So let's talk about the first one - clairsentience.

Clairsentience is an ability to receive information from The Other Side without necessarily seeing it or hearing anything. And I've often said some of the greatest Mediums I have even known, never saw anything, never heard anything. But they have what we call "a quiet knowing" or "a quiet understanding." Now Alfred had that in the beginning and he was able to develop that and he's still doing so. Almost everyone, at some level, is clairsentient.

ALFRED:

Yes. Everyone has the ability to receive information from Spirit. At least on a clairsentient level. What that means is that you can interpret the frequency and vibration and the energy of Spirit. Some call it a gut feeling, some call it woman's intuition, sometimes you've said I just feel I should do this or say that. That is clairsentience. Everyone has that. The question is whether or not you pay attention to it.

HANS:

Now, in the classes that we give on-line and in-person, one of our jobs is to help you to understand the call signs for what you do have. And many of you, I'm very delighted to say, have begun to work with your clairsentient abilities, begun to help open some doors for you. And this really makes a difference when you get an impression and then you follow through with the impression. And you say: Oh my gosh, I knew that. I don't know how I knew it, but I knew it.

I'd like to talk a little bit longer about what are the possibilities in being clairsentient. And one of the possibilities is to walk with your hand holding Spirit. In other words, to believe that you are being given and fed information... not questioning it whatsoever... just knowing it. And when you do that, your broad-band of your intuitive development center opens wider. And speaking of broad-band... Alfred?

ALFRED:

So what we're trying to say is has to do with Trust, Faith, and Belief. Trust that what is coming through is actually for you. Faith that there are people above you watching over you that are there for your highest good. Belief that you can actually receive information from your Guidance. The more that you surrender into those, the more you will be able to use your clairsentient abilities.

HANS:

And the big lesson in this is Trust and Belief. If you continue to look for what you think you had you're going to block it from coming in. Your job is to "know" you have never not been disconnected. Never. You can never be disconnected from Spirit. That's impossible.

So when you begin to say: Oh, I already am connected. I'm just learning how to work with this connection. The doors open even wider. Being clairsentient means: I believe, I trust. How did that work for you in the beginning, Alfred?

ALFRED:

It was pretty scary. 

HANS:

Yeah.

ALFRED:

It was really scary when you first start trying to believe that there is something that you can understand... that you've never read, that you've never talked about, that you never studied, that you never learned, you've never watched on television, but all of a sudden this information comes to you. That really scares the heck out of your brain.

HANS:

It does. The brain doesn't know how to deal with it. The brain knows how to deal with what it calls a "known." But an "unknown" is another matter entirely. So folks, if you feel that you are clairsentient, then your job is to work on your belief system. That's going to be the key here, to grow that. Working on the belief system. 

ALFRED:

So onto the next topic. Let's get over to more mediumistic skills. Clairsentience is more of a psychic skill. Psychics interpret the energy and the vibration of Spirit, of Guidance. More mediumistic skills, the first one is clairvoyance – is the ability to receive images from The Other Side.

HANS:

Now, if you're clairvoyant, which so many of you are, you would have, since childhood, gotten little flashes of wisdom... little pictures... little quiet understandings. And those things tended to happen. They tended to come true. You may have seen shadows. You may have seen misty clouds. Those are all part of the development of intuitive aspects of your body. 

Spirit, in the beginning, has to readjust the electromagnetic energy in your system in order to become more in-line with their energy. So, as you raise your vibration, their job is to lower theirs. Okay? Until you get somewhere in the middle where it makes it easier to communicate. And that's exactly what happens is we teach you how to get in-line with spiritual vibration.

One of the things that I think is very important is that you not try so hard. Have a quiet knowing that you're clairvoyant and The Spirit is working with you. But when you sit real hard and you try to manifest something or see something, you really lose the value of the natural flow of the energy. Alfred, any comments?

ALFRED:

With all spiritual practices, your first job is to surrender, is to let go, is to be a blank slate. And to wait for something to come "to" you. It's not your job to go out and get the images. It's your job to be calm, to be peaceful, to be in a meditative state, and wait for Spirit to give you information. 

In this place, you're waiting for them to give you a picture. Now it's very, very important during the development of your clairvoyance is to explain to The Other Side when you get something. To say: I see red... I see blue... I see pink. A lot of times our students start out by seeing just a single color.

HANS:

Yes. Oftentimes a color or a shape. A lot of times people will see circles or squares or again a puff of smoke. These are all indications that you are operating closer and closer with The Spirit. I used to tell these things to Alfred and he used to say I was not playing with a full deck. Now he doesn't say that anymore.

ALFRED:

So as you're developing your clairvoyance, you need to communicate with The Other Side what you're getting. And the more you tell The Other Side what you're getting, the more They can say: Okay, let's try to work in a similar way and the more detailed the pictures will become.

HANS:

Absolutely. So just know that yes you can. Yes you can. It's a matter of working hard at it and accepting it. And we teach you all these things on our website and in all the classes that we do. Now the next thing I'd like to talk about is one that's been very dear and near to my heart for years and that's clairaudience. 

Clairaudience is the ability to actually hear The Spirit, hear voices. Sometimes people say: Well I hear like when I walk into a certain room in my house... or I walk down the hallway, I can hear a little rustling sound or I hear what I think are voices... very muted, very muffled. What is that? You're passing very, very close to what I call a little vortex in spiritual energy that allows you to actually hear that.

That's a very good sign for those of you who are developing your clairsentient abilities. Many times, many times, you'll hear your name called. Alfred, the other day you heard you name called I think.

ALFRED:

As clear as a bell. I thought it was Hans calling my name.

HANS:

Once that process begins, over time, The Spirit begins to open the door if They see the person is not being frightened by the event. They open the door to help that person to develop their clairaudience. 

So these three things that we're talking about today are all handled in our Intuitive Development Class.

ALFRED:

Yes. But one thing that we try to explain to you in the Class, and we're just giving you a little tidbit here, is everyone is clairsentient. Everyone can receive vibration, energy, guidance from Spirit. Some people are clairvoyant and can receive pictures. Mediumistic skills that we're talking about here, such as the ability to "hear" The Other Side are reserved for Royalty... Great Masters...

HANS:

(Laughing)

ALFRED:

So if you're hearing voices, that's actually really good.

HANS:

That's a a really good sign. And some people, like we say, are possessed of all three. But they don't know and psychiatrists tend to call it crazy.

ALFRED:

And we're trying to telling you that's a really great thing.

HANS:

Congratulations is what we're trying to say.

ALFRED:

You can actually have communication with The Other Side as if you're having communication with someone here. And what we're trying to say here is communication, it is a two-way communication, in all three types of ways that we're reviewing. Especially in clairaudience, it's not just about "hearing," it's about your ability to speak back with The Other Side.

HANS:

I had a very interesting question come in the other day. Does your environment... can it hinder or help your development? The answer to that is: Yes. If you live in a very stressful city in a very stressful place, then you need to turn your home into a sanctuary or a room into a sanctuary where peace is what you hear. Having a water feature, for instance, a little fountain which you can even produce on your computer to drown out background noise is important.

I used to have a very large group and we had always sat with a water feature because it was in the business section in Los Angeles and another one in the Bay Area. And it harmonizes better. So try to find a safe place. So for those of you who live in a big, bustling city, don't think you can't do this. You can, but with certain little preparations. 

The biggest thing we hear, where we live, are the birds. Alfred's birds. He feeds the birds. Last night Alfred was blessed to have seven raccoons on the deck. And the raccoons are now are so big that they can't get through the slats on the deck. They have to climb over the deck.

ALFRED:

They're very well fed.

HANS:

They eat better than he does, let's put it that way. Okay?

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

“Soul Mate Relationships: Preparing Yourself” - by Hans Christian King 

Spiritual Radio Show Transcription

GUIDANCE FOR YOUR LIFE Radio Show

with Hans Christian King www.HansKing.com

and Alfred Ricci www.AlfredRicci.com

Topic: Soul Mate Relationships: Preparing Yourself 

August 1, 2015

HANS:

The topic for today is "Soul Mate Relationships.” We actually have contracts with individuals that we have been with before in previous lifetimes. Then we agreed to do certain things... their Guides, your Guides, everybody got together before we came in here... had a little tea-party. And they all decided what was best in this lifetime for you.

And certain people said: Well let me help you with that because you helped me with the other before. So what happens is you come here and gradually the people that you are supposed to meet, you are drawn to. And a lot of times I have clients that will say: Are you sure I chose that person I'm living with? And I'll say: Yes, you did.

But Soul Mates... In order to get to where you start to deal with your Soul Mates that come through your life, you first have to find a clear spot within yourself. Now this sounds very simple, but it is not. If you picture a square and you cut the square into 4's and you put little titles on it: My Capability To Love, The Attraction Aspect, My Availability Aspect... And then you come over to this little one on the right-hand side and it says: Trust. And that one, for many, many, many thousands of people is the one they have the hardest time with.

So if they have been out of a relationship for awhile, the trust factor begins to listen to the mind chatter. And as it listens to the mind chatter, what it's doing is very slowly disconnecting us from the possibilities. Because it sends false signals to the trust department and saying: Well, you know what, if you venture out to that you could get hurt. What happened last time could happen again.

And pretty soon it talks us out of it. So the other 3 are saying: Yes, I'm available. You're verbalizing: Yes, I'm available. But actually there's no room in the heart for the trust factor.

ALFRED:

And that has to do a lot with letting go of previous traumas, previous issues, previous experiences, that caused you not to trust. Now, of course, using all of Hans King's wisdom and guidance, you'll be learning about how to let go of the past so that you can allow yourself to trust once again. But the most important thing is, when building trust, is not to bring previous relationships into your current relationship.

HANS:

That's the key.

ALFRED:

And if you are not trusting, that's because of something that's happened in a previous relationship. And what we're talking about is making space for a new relationship. If your old relationship is still with you, still in your heart-space, as Hans says: You have a padlock.

HANS:

Yes. For many of you, you've not only locked the door, but you've actually had a padlock installed. And sometimes the Spirit will say to you: Please, if you can't open the door, will you just unlock it for a moment to allow us to work with you?

I actually have clients that will say to me: I'm not going to make myself available for another relationship until my perfect lover shows up. Well folks, you can't do that. Because life with Spirit is about trust. But each of you, go into your heart, and ask yourself have you cleared up that space? Okay?

Another thing that the mind chatter tells you is that you may not be good enough for a relationship... you may not be pretty enough... you may not be handsome enough... there may be something wrong with you physically you think. And so you start to talk yourself out of the possibility.

But I'll tell you this: Everyone has someone. Everyone. You are never destined to be alone unless your entire life's lesson is about "The Power of The One." And most of you haven't come to that place quite yet in your life.

If you feel, in your heart, and I know Peter, we've been dealing with this with you in New York. And what I'm saying to you is: It's never of matter of "when," my friend, it's a matter of "believing that it is already happening." That's the key. Know in your heart it's already. Don't wonder it, don't doubt it, don't run your safety mechanisms by it,  and don't run your trust mechanisms by it - "know" it. 

And every time that mind chatter comes up and tries to engage you and say: You know what, you can't put yourself out there, you can't trust this issue. You need to turn to that and say: No, that's not true.

Another aspect to consider, when looking for a Soul Mate Relationships is: Do I love myself enough to allow myself to be happy? That's a tough one folks. We've been told, since the day we're born, if not by parents... perhaps you have totally supportive parents... but somewhere along the way - in schools, somewhere watching television, advertising, you will be informed that you are not good enough “yet.” And if you buy this product, if you take this course, if you do this thing, then you could begin to get good enough. 

Implementing a state of trust into your life is key to you finding the relationship with yourself that supports and allows for a relationship with someone else. Alfred?

ALFRED:

The topic that we're trying to get to right now is making sure that you are ready, that you are available for a Soul Mate Relationship. It is not about a Soul Mate coming in and fixing you. It is about you being available, being ready. Okay? Being who you are. A perfect soul with perfect confidence - that you are who you are. And then attracting a Soul Mate with that vibration.

HANS:

And trusting.

ALFRED:

And trusting. So if you happen to have the vibration of: I'm not good enough, I'm not deserving, what do you think is going to be attracted to you?

HANS:

Yes.

ALFRED:

People who are going to tell you you're not good enough, you're not deserving.  You're not going to get your proper Soul Mate. Instead you're going to get people attracted to you with a similar vibration. Okay? So what we're trying to tell you is "before" you start looking for your Soul Mate, make sure you've done your inner work. As we've talked about previously, make sure you've opened the trust factor. 

And in this topic, what we're making sure that you look at is: Are you "deserving" of that Soul Mate Relationship? And that is the vibration that you put out - that you are deserving of love, you are deserving of kindness, you are deserving of joy, and those are the things that you want and will have in your life.

HANS:

And you will. Now folks, sometimes people will say to me: Well Hansie, I'm 52 years old. I mean, I'm getting a little long in the tooth. And when is this going to happen? I said: When you learn to love yourself enough to give yourself someone new. So many people are still waiting. You've heard me hound you about this through the years. So many people are waiting for someone to show up to tell them they're okay. You need to tell yourself you're already okay. 

All the people that we see on the television, in the movies, people who have become very big in whatever endeavor, whatever field they're in... very respected... never said: I'm hoping somebody will tell me I'm okay to do this... I'm hoping somebody will come and validate my existence. They already knew it.

I just was reading a story today about the richest woman in China. Her first name is Zhou. She starting working in a factory, as a teenager... a factory. She got $1.00 a day. And they showed her little security card she had used to get into the factory. Today she is the wealthiest woman in China. Her company makes all the glass on iPhones, iPads. Her company makes half of all the glass on half of all the computers in the world.

She had to drop out of High School because she couldn't afford to go. Do you think ever, in that woman's life, she ever told herself she wasn't good enough... that she couldn't make it? In reading her story today, she said somewhere in her she always knew. She believed that there was something greater for her than what her circumstances ever dictated to. 

Relationships. When you build the relationship with yourself there are tons of possibilities that can occur.

And that concludes the lesson for today.

and Alfred Ricci www.AlfredRicci.com

Topic: Lost Expectations

June 20, 2015

HANS:

Oh, Hi everybody! It's so great to be back onto a regular schedule again. We've been all over creation and working, doing lectures,workshops, what-have-you and so I've been back home... For those of you who've been emailing me "How am I doing" - I'm doing better folks. I had a really, really nasty lung infection and a great doctor over here has got me up and running. I feel so much better, I can't tell you.

So I want to talk today about "Lost Expectations." How do we handle Lost Expectations? You know - "A wish is a prayer the heart makes." And sometimes we get ourself locked into something that will change our life or make us feel better and we start to get invested in it and we start planning what we're going to do when "that' happens and how our life is going to get better because this happens.  But there's also a little tiny thing in there that says "If I get it, God still loves me."

I had a lady say that to me yesterday: I know if this shows up Hans, it proves to me that God still loves me. God always loves you. Not every thing that you're praying for and hoping for comes true in the moment. But if you're patient, and I needed to use some patience today, believe me when I tell you... And I caught myself getting very fussy about something that I knew I had no control over. But it was an expectation that I had to give up.

In any case, coming back up the mountain tonight I thought to myself: Perhaps this is a good time to practice what I preach. And so I caught myself laughing and I'm still doing it. Expectations... Lost Expectations. Because something doesn't show up in your expectation in the moment and/or in the timing does not children, again does not mean anything is wrong. On the contrary, it's working it thing through... for you.

Most things that we pray for come true in one form or another, if we're patient. We get impatient when it doesn't show up in our time expectation. Then we start to add all kinds of negative energy to it. Have you noticed that Alfred, when something doesn't show up in our expectation time wise, we start running our mind crazies?

ALFRED:

Absolutely. And the issue here is that the mind thinks it not only can expect something externally but it actually has some type of control over what happens outside of us.

HANS:

Exactly.

ALFRED:

And the spiritual truth is that you have little or no control over what happens outside of you. So when your mind has an expectation of the result of what's going to happen, but the spiritual truth is that you really have no control over anything outside of you, you're literally just wasting energy. See, your mind is really lying to you telling you have control and people should do what you asked them to do. 

Where, in reality, the truth is free will. Everyone has free will. You have free will. Everyone external to you has free will. So by the law of free will, no one has to do anything.

HANS:

That is correct. Nicely put, Alfred. Thank you for that. Nicely put. Sometimes we take our expectation and we begin to talk to our friends and our family and we share our expectation and then everybody gets excited about our expectation and nothing happens. It's just quiet. It's just... what happened? Nothing happened, children. It's working through its timing. If you listen to the Questions throughout the years here on the Show... and Alfred, I believe we're in our 5th year...

ALFRED:

Yes, I think we are.

HANS:

Yep, I think so. And if you listen to the Questions kids, you will hear so many people say: But when? When you pull your expectation of the time, you begin to open the door for the natural free will of the event, which Spirit already knows, God already knows, and if it is for you, They are currently working on it and will see it through to its rightful conclusion.

However, this is what concerns me as your Teacher. In the process of it not showing up, we start to run the mind chatter that disconnects to our belief. And that is something we all need to be careful of. We don't want to do that. If it doesn't show up, we say: I know it is and I'm preparing myself for when it does. Removing the expectation that says: It has to show up in my expectation, in my time, in my need, so I can feel certain that God loves me. You see?

Now I can hear many of you say: Oh, I don't do that. And I would say to you: You want to bet? For instance, I had a young lady who went to dinner with another young lady friend of hers and they are in their 40's... and a friend of one of them came by to say: Oh, hi. And said: Oh, this is a friend of mine, we're out for the evening. Nice to see you. What's your name? Anyway, that girl went from that place of: Hi, nice to meet you "to" getting married, having children, moving, setting up a whole new life, when there was nothing in the conversation that even mentioned the date. 

That's how our mind starts to set an unrealistic expectation. Rather than say: I know someone like that is on the way. I know my perfect partner is, in fact, on the way and I will be ready for it when it happens. And then get on living and loving your god and get on with your life. We don't do that. She's terribly crushed. And she's terribly disappointed because she never heard from the gentleman. The fact that he doesn't have her phone number never seems to enter her mind. But if my god loved me, my god would have set this up for me. You see how that works, Alfred?

ALFRED:

Absolutely. And it's our mind that interferes with the spiritual process of Spirit working “with” us. When we have expectations, when the mind chatter comes in, when we try to figure out how things should be, when we try to control the outcome, then we're telling Spirit: We know what's better. 

HANS:

Yes.

ALFRED:

We know what's best for me. And the truth is, while we're in humanness, we have no clue. We don't have the slightest idea about our path in life. 

HANS:

No.

ALFRED:

And so the Other Side says: Okay, great. Let me know how that work for you.

HANS:

Right.

ALFRED:

(Laughing)

HANS:

So what I'm trying to get at today, kids, is that living in the wonder of the moment... You have heard Alfred and I discuss this for years now. Just learning to be in the moment - all is well. And you can feel when your mind starts to disrupt your joy. You can feel it! Alfred's always pointing out and saying: And how do you "feel" with this? How do you "feel" when that happens? He's big on the feelings because it's true. And you can "feel" Alfred when you go from being in the bliss to having the mind chatter take over and start kicking you around. You can feel it.

ALFRED:

That's right. Your connection to Spirit is through energy and vibration. 

HANS:

Yes.

ALFRED:

That is universal energy, that is clairsentient abilities to communicate and receive guidance from Spirit. And quite simply, if you have an expectation, you are in your head. You're blocking your ability to receive that feeling, to receive that guidance. So basically the lesson here is "it's a choice". If you have an expectation, that's fine. But if you're wondering why expectations hurt, it's because you're approaching life through your mind chatter. The spiritual lesson here instead is to release expectations and live in the moment. Where, from the moment, you'll be able to receive guidance and “feel” if something is for you or not.

HANS:

Absolutely... absolutely. And Alfred, there's a certain bliss that comes from being in the moment. I've been up here for 2 weeks with Bella, just she and I. In these beautiful mountains we go out and sit in the rocking chair out on the front porch in the morning and I have my coffee and I think these words every day: Oh my goodness, how blessed am I to be in this moment. And she curls up, because she doesn't like to get up early... and we just talk and it's a wonderful feeling of no mental activity. Just peace and joy in the moment. Because our mind isn't telling us that anything is wrong. 

And that's the only thing... as far as I am concerned about is that the mind chatter brings fear, doubt and sadness to us. You can retrain your mind to start expecting joy, to start expecting peace... you can do that. We've got lots of products on-line that can help you get to that place.

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