Topic:  Fear
January 23, 2015






Hans:
Hello everybody, welcome, welcome, welcome. Our topic today is "Fear." You know, my friends, over the years we've dealt with fear in many different ways. But I've been getting a lot of emails and phone calls lately, people saying "is this going to happen, is this true?" A gentleman who I love and been part of our work for a long time called me and said I just heard someone say that the... I won't name the party but you'll just use your imagination. One of the political parties now said it's time to cut Social Security. He says I get my first check next month. He said am I going to be able to get that check? This fear that's out there now is an opportunity for all of you to practice what Alfred and I have been teaching you lo these many years. For me, a lot longer than Alfred's been alive. And fear is not real. Fear is an emotional place within you. 

Remember when we did that show... oh, I don't know... 2 or 3 months ago and we did it from Mexico and it was entitled "Fear and Doubt Can Only Live in the House You Build." Some of you have seem to have gotten away from that reality. And I've noticed that in some of the questions over the last couple of months you can hear the fear that's creeping in. I want to say to all of you that says to yourself that you have a deliberate intention, an intention, to allow the fear in. Fear again can only live in the house that you build. And remember fear is its own food. It keeps reproducing itself over and over and over and each time fear reproduces itself it gets just a little larger and it sort of sticks itself deep into your soul. The only thing that we have to fear is fear itself, as Mr. Roosevelt said back in 1941. 
But that is the essence of truth because fear is a manufactured product of your own consciousness. And you do things in a conscious mind that you would simply never do when you get into fear. 

People have strange fears about... I'll give you one that you all heard me talk about - Ebola - and Spirit said to you: It's irrational. There's 7 billion people on the planet, 300 of them have Ebola. One person came to the United States with Ebola. We have 315 million people in the country...One. But the headlines were filled with Ebola this and one party's blaming the other party, it's a pandemic, it's going to sweep Europe and all... nonsense. And we told you nonsense at the time. And before that it was Putin and the Ukraine, and it was taking over the Crimea and Russia's coming to occupy Europe, and why isn't the United States going to war to protect... all this. Fear, fear, fear. And we have one group of people in this country who thrive, who literally thrive, on the possibility of fear. And many of these people think they're good, well-intentioned Christian people. But if they were, they wouldn't have the judgment, and they wouldn't have the fear either. 

We have locked ourself into – in this country – into a fear based lifestyle. A fear if we don't get this education we won't be able to get a good job. Fear. If I want to make my dreams come true I need to leave what I'm doing and pursue them. Fear being: Well, what if I fail? What if that doesn't work? What if I'm doing the wrong thing? Never thinking that at that moment that fear is opportunity knocking. Opportunity knocking. Opportunity saying: Wait a minute, this is all made up. You don't have to do this. You are a unique example of God in human form. There are no limitations with the Godforce, I am not making that up. The same God that got me this far will get me to my destination, or my next part of my journey. But the whole country... turn on the TV's sometimes folks and go just to two channels - MSNBC and FOX. The difference between those two channels is so shocking to me. I'm not going to say one is better than the other. I'm talking about the message, people. The message. The things that people say. Remember back when during this current Administration all those predictions of the collapse of the United States, immigrants were going to take over the country, the economy was going to fail, everybody would loose their savings, there would be riots in the streets... I heard all of that. And suddenly out of nowhere - oh, well the economy is better - oh, well we are working on the middle class - oh, well no it wasn't quite as bad as we thought - oh, Ebola didn't sweep the nation. FEAR. Fear of an unknown. 

Some years ago I was talking to you about fear and Spirit said to me, while I'm talking to all of you, They said: Well, explain something to me Hans. And this was one of my main Guides. And I said: What? He said: What can you be afraid of what you don't know if you don't know it? Think about it, folks. How can you be afraid of what you don't know if you don't know it? Because your mind always puts a dragon in the unknown. That's why. And when you do that you say to God I don't believe that you're there for me. You say to Spirit I don't trust that you're there for me. And somehow you manage to negotiate the freeways, and the restaurants, and getting kids to school, and the snowstorms... Somehow you manage to get from Point A to Point B. 

I have a client that I've had for many, many, many years and he has to fly continuously around the world. And we're sitting doing a session in San Francisco once and he said: Hans, I find it so hard to believe. I said: How many miles did you fly last year? Well, he says: Well in excess of 200,000. I said: And you don't believe? And he thought for a moment. I said: How many plane flights did you take? He said: I can't calculate it. And I said: And you don't believe? You get in a cigar tin can and fly 38,000 feet in the air, through the atmosphere, you've taken how many flights, taken off, landed, and you're still here and you don't believe? Somewhere in you, you believe enough in the universe to allow yourself to get on that plane even though you know there's a possibility that plane could fall down. But you believe somewhere or you wouldn't get on the plane. So sometimes when we're busy thinking of what bad could happen to us we forget all the good that has happened and already is happening to us in this moment. 

Have you noticed, children that fear is always about something that "might" happen? Might happen. This could happen, that could happen. And when you start down that path you become a victim of fear. Not a nice thing to say, I understand that. But you become a victim of fear. And as you become a victim of fear, it keeps feeding itself and reproducing itself and one day you wake up at 2:00 in the morning, 5:00 in the morning, and you're in a cold sweat because fear has even entered into your sleeping form causing you nightmares. So you have an opportunity in life to say: I choose to not live in fear and I choose that my God loves me so and will take care of me. I have nothing to fear but being afraid myself and doing this to myself because I'm perfect in my God's eyes and I'm taken care of. You have that choice. You can make that choice. You can say: I'm enough not to be afraid. All that I need, all that I desire is in front of me. I'm the only one that's blocking it. Okay? So there's no written agreement with you in your contract that says you are to be and remain in fear. That is all self induced and man-made. 

The other day I heard something on the television that was shocking. They said in the 50 years that airliners have been flying to Hawaii from the West Coast, we're talking about hundreds of thousands of flights, we've never lost one. But the fear generated at the possibility is huge. Fear is something that you can control or it can control you. You have to decide which it is. When I was a very young man, for a very short period of time, I was afraid to be in crowds, I was afraid to be in the public. Because what I didn't realize was that I was clairsentient. Nobody told me. And I found out I was clairsentient so I was actually picking up sort of vibrations from peoples and crowds and many of you have had this feeling and I just wouldn't go because it was too scary. And people used to say he wouldn't go into a room where there were more than six people in it. And that was pretty much the truth. Now I go into a room with 1,000 people. It's perfectly fine. Because I've learned that my fears were irrational. There was no truth. 

Have you ever noticed something that we do kids, have you ever noticed that if we're afraid of something we'll try to defend why we're afraid of it? With no rational real reason but we'll make one up? And here's a big one - well, it "could happen." It could happen. Yes, it could happen. But it's not going to. So why do we need for it to happen? By believing it is going to happen or it might happen. Why do we do that? Why don't we just say: I'm not afraid and I refuse to defend the fear that I have. I choose this day to be happy. I choose to be light. I choose to be love. If you don't have $5 to your name, you can say that. You can open that door. And when you open that door, everything begins to change, everything. Because the essence of God that flows through you has no fear. The essence of Spirit, which is your strength, has no fear. Remember what we always teach you - You cannot shine the dark in the light. The light will always prevail, in every situation. There are dark moments that humans put us into, out of our control - wars and what have you. But we can rise above that. We can rise above that. 

Somebody asked me the other day what I thought of the movie "American Sniper." Now folks, I'm not going to get into that today. But it's a real good reminder why war is insanity in motion. Pure, unadulterated insanity, pointless, no reason. Why, why? I watched some people being interviewed and they said these words: Well, we have to have those people because the other ones are coming to get us. No. No one's coming to get us. We don't need snipers to defend ourself. We never have. We never will. Okay? So what I want you all to do today is to sit down and look at your Fear Book. Look and see where you are. Look and see are you allowing any fear, doubt, worry, or concerns to interfere with the flow of your life, the beauty. Remember something, oftentimes the humblest of people we know, the humblest of people we meet, are some of the happiest people we'll ever experience. Always. Because they know that their God loves them. Hands down, I've said this for years, some of the happiest people I've ever met in Mexico, of the poorest of citizens on the beach on a Sunday, the love, the family. They don't have any money but they've got a 6-pack and they've got food they can make and BBQ and the kids got a little pool to play in... They have a ball but they have no money to speak of compared to what we are used to seeing.

And I'll never forget that ride I had to the airport... the taxi driver. And he said to me: Can I ask you a question? I said: Certainly. He says: Why are Americans so afraid? Why? He said: They act as though something's coming to get them. I had to reach for an answer. But the real answer is because that's what we're taught - that something's coming to get us. Nothing, folks, is coming to get you. Get on with your life. Take the principles that Alfred and I have tried to teach you. Alfred, a little something from you on this subject.

Alfred:
The question is why is fear so important? Why is dealing with fear so important? It's because if you are fearful of doing things, you're not going to follow the advice of your Guidance. If your Guidance says, for example, here is this magnificent opportunity, we know that you have it in you to follow through with this opportunity, here it is, we're giving it to you, this is what you've asked to experience. If you're fearful, you're not going to follow through with that opportunity that you asked for and that your Guidance has provided you. Fear is going to keep you from the life you asked to experience. It's going to keep you from your abundance. It'll keep you from your happiness. I couldn't imagine a crazier life if the Other Side is working on your behalf and you say: No. That's a reason why fear is really important to deal with.

Hans:
Yes, to learn from. But have you ever noticed Alfred, that when you try to take fear away from someone they fight to bring it back?

Alfred:
Well, it's as I heard a long time ago from a couple of people I thought I respected and they said and: Well it's the devil you know or the devil you don't know. And I looked at them and said: You know you're holding onto a devil because you don't know what else there could possibly be?

(Hans Laughing)

Hans:
Yeah, it doesn't even make any sense. Honest to goodness, it doesn't.

Alfred:
Wait.

Hans:
Hello. Wait a minute here.

Alfred:
Isn't it welcoming the thing that you don't know because it's a thing that you know that's getting you into trouble and maybe by surrendering what you know and asking the Other Side for help...

Hans:
If you surrender Alfred, you'd be out of control.

Alfred:
Exactly!

Hans:
There's some fear attached to that one.

Alfred:
Yes. Being out of control so you can control the devil you know and keep what you have. Yeah, life as a human. So what we try to do is teach you to live as Spirit. Spirit is all about surrendering. Spirit is all about trust, faith and belief that what is coming for you is for your highest good. That is the way of Spirit. Fear is the way of humanness.

Hans:
Yes, absolutely. I think Alfred, that will conclude the lesson. I don't want to appear as beating them over the head.

Topic:  How To Find Your Life Mission
January 16, 2015





Hans:
Hello everyone. So nice to be back with you today. It's an interesting topic "How to Find Your Life's Mission." You know if you can remember back to when you were a very young child... if you found yourself, for instance, being drawn to coloring airplanes, or mechanical things – I had tinker toys and wanted to put things together, intricate things together. If your parents are wise they kind of know what direction they may want to bring to you. If you find yourself wanting to do something for someone else, a neighbor, go help the little lady across the street who's a widow, just wanting to give and help people and it just comes really natural to you, that's a sure sign that you're going to be in service in this lifetime. Some people have multi-talents, Alfred, and they may head down one road and experience that but that door often leads to another door. Now you remember that don't you?

Alfred:
Absolutely, Hans.

Hans:
Did you find that when you were going down the one road... Did you find that you felt when you were doing that that's where you needed to be at that moment or did you feel you were doing that but there was something else gnawing at you?

Alfred:
No. I knew that's what I was supposed to be doing at that time in my life. There was just some reason, which I didn't understand, that drove me to go in certain directions and do certain things and leave opportunities that people couldn't understand in order to go in a direction that even I couldn't understand.

Hans:
This is often the case and what I try to help people to understand is throughout life Spirit presents us with what I call "Doors of Opportunities" and they'll... You know you say: Well, I want the experience of this. And now their job is to help you to do that but they also see the larger picture and they know there's another thing that your soul wanted to experience so they put in the one but they leave this little second door, sort of always there, sort of almost like gnawing at you just a little bit, like I wish I had a look at this. And eventually that interest, that bit of intrigue on that grows to a point where you actually say: You know, I wonder if I should do that? And I always say to people: Follow your impressions. They are given to you by your Guides, they are given to you by the God-force. Follow your impressions. Because when you simply deal with the mind and the mind chatter and all that goes along with that, you immediately are in limitation. You know, I know people who are so invested in the way something needs to be and maybe they've gathered around them a group of friends who also agree this is the way this needs to be, this is what's supposed to be. But that can't affix a change for some reason. The reason is that they're not supposed to make that change. They are to use that as a vehicle to change themselves. That's what people don't want to deal with, is they have a problem, I find Alfred, in seeing past their limitations. Have you found this to be true?

Alfred:
And that's part of the hard part... is to just begin with the simple understanding that Spirit is there to guide you to a career, a job, a place, to people that you asked to experience before you were born. See all of those reasons "why" you wanted to experience those things were based upon karma, dharma, previous lifetimes, where you are in your soul's growth. Then you come down here and you get bombarded by media, friends, pressure, and sometimes the two just don't match. So Spirit is guiding you in one direction saying you asked us to point you in this direction, thus we're giving you this little feeling that you should do that. And all of these other social pressures, family pressures, are taking you in a different direction. And what we're trying to tell you is if you want to begin finding your path in life, you need to start looking within, feeling within, connecting to Guidance, to find why you're here.

Hans:
You know Alfred, sometimes when we don't feel that we fit or we don't feel we're being recognized by family, or by work, or friends, we have a tendency to blame the situation rather than look at ourselves. And so we find ourself saying: Well, this person doesn't understand me, and this group should be doing this, and this organization needs to change... And we find ourselves blaming others for refusing to deal with the self in the situation. Rather than say you know this situation doesn't suit me or this situation doesn't serve me. What we tend to do is then become victims of this situation, throwing our life's lesson right to the wind.  And we are bigger, we are better than that situation. That situation is not who we are. But we begin to continue to sever... and we build an entire identity around the suffering of the situation. That can be a relationship, Alfred, it could be work, it could be any number of things. But once we slip into that self victimization role, it takes a very long time to get out of it. Don't you find that's true?

Alfred:
And that's a lot of the teachings that we go over is you have a choice and we're explaining to you what that major choice is. The choice is to follow human thought, what human's think is important, what is important or perceived to be important in the physical world or you can follow these teachings to guide you what is important spiritually speaking. Now of course the issue is is because we're in the physical world, the physical aspects of image, ego, money, family, media, that seems really relevant. It's there. It seems like it's real.

Hans:
Yeah. Those are the key word there Alfred – seems like it's real.

Alfred:
And what we're trying to tell you do is see past the illusion. That's why you're here. I think in every major religion they talk about "overcoming." Well, they all define it differently. Our definition of "overcoming" is - see past the illusion, overcome the illusion. Practice being and connecting to Spirit to find your life's mission.

Hans:
Excellent. You know Alfred, I had a client any number of years ago who was like number 3, number 4, in a very large corporation and this individual had worked themselves up from a sales clerk ,as a matter of fact ,clear up to the top and he just couldn't get over the next hurdle. Years went by. They didn't affix the changes that he wanted, they continually bypassed him for promotions, and he began to become a victim of the situation and he kept saying I don't understand why they won't do the things that I know are best for them. And finally one day Spirit said to him: What makes you think they're supposed to? Oh, and then he gave us this litany of reasons why they're supposed to. And then Spirit says: What makes you think that you're supposed to be there anymore? Well, it's my job, this is all I know, this is what I worked for. And they said: No, this is what you've done so far. There's much more for you to do. And he absolutely refused to believe it. And a year went by, and another year went by and Spirit said the same thing each time he came to visit. So finally one day he said I've decided to take a package that's been offered to me by the company. The day he took that package he said, Alfred, it was like someone took a huge weight off his shoulders. Within 3 months, a smaller, fairly established start-up company hired him, heard about him, hired him, for more money than he was making before, with terrific stock options and he's now number 2 in the company and working towards the chairmanship.

Alfred:
And that's a really difficult story. So let me try to explain that because I came from...

Hans:
You lived that I know. (Hans laughing)

Alfred:
... one of those corporate backgrounds. But it applies to everyone. We want to find out what "is" our life mission? But that's not the way the Other Side works. 

Hans:
No.

Alfred:
And Hans taught me this very early to say... because I asked the same question for a couple years and every time Hans gave me the same answer. If you knew your life's mission, you would change it.

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
Because you're addressing it from a human perspective. The Other Side is not going to give you your life's mission until you are a spiritual being functioning as Spirit, being as Spirit, and then you won't have any judgment and opinion from a human perspective to change your life's mission. In other words, by the far majority of the people who are listening to this, you're not going to get your life's mission, you're going to get what is the next step...

Hans:
For you on your growth.

Alfred:
... on your life path. Okay?

Hans:
That's correct.

Alfred:
So if you're looking for your life path, like this guy, it's what is the step in front of me. And then once you take that step, the next step will appear and that is how you find your life mission. By far, for the majority of us is if you're looking for your life path – okay, like every other spiritual lesson – look in the now. What is the lesson that is directly in front of you?

Hans:
Exactly Alfred.

Alfred:
And that is your path - what is directly in front of you in the moment.

Hans:
You know, I'm reminded Alfred, that sometimes we keep fishing in the same pond for a fish that doesn't exist in that pond. But by golly we're going to make certain that it appears so we keep fishing in it. And that's what people do with relationships, it's what they do with their employment, it's what they do with their friends. If something, kids, isn't working for you, it isn't for you. There are other options, even though your mind chatter may tell you oh no, there isn't, even if your friends say oh no you can't leave this job, oh no, if you leave this job you're done for. No. Because one day that same job that gave you your identity will be taken away from you whether you like it or you don't like it you're out the door. So all the time that you spent wanting to have this thing show up in your expectations was for absolutely no reason whatsoever. The ego then becomes in involved.

Alfred:
Yeah, and that's something you need to look at. If you keep trying something and it doesn't work, you keep trying something and it doesn't work, you keep trying something and it doesn't work... You have all these friends that keep doing the exact same thing, the lesson keeps getting presented to you over and over and over again. Take a look at it.

Hans:
Yeah. You know there's a saying Alfred that's out there today and I don't know why but it just cracks me up. But so many times in my career I've had to say to someone who is insisting that my teachings don't work for them, or this will never work, or this is too simplistic, or they need to have this change. And then I'll say: Okay, well how's that working for you? Are you winning that battle? Are you getting your point across? Are you affixing the changes you're trying to do? How's it working for you? And most of the time, Alfred, they will say: It's not. And Spirit will say: Then why do you keep trying it? Because I know, they say, that's where I'm supposed to be. You see? So that is their ego taking over responsibility for their life. If you are in a job and that job doesn't work for you, just simply doesn't work... you're not promoted when you should be, you don't get the respect from your peers, from the people at the top, if that isn't working for you, somebody tell me why in the world are you in that job? Why are you doing that to yourself?

Alfred:
And that's the hard one to understand is we're taught to push, to work through the stress...

Hans:
Right.

Alfred:
... to work through being tired.

Hans:
Well, you were taught that. And that's for sure.

Alfred:
Yes, yes. I had it drilled into me. What we're saying, spiritually speaking, that's human. And it's a choice whether to live your life according to human ways or if you want to find the reason you were born, to look at it from a spiritual perspective. If it's not working, then you're off your path.

Hans:
You're off your path. And if you're suffering in your work...

Alfred:
Then you're addressing it from human values, human thought, ego.

Hans:
Right:

Alfred:
If you're following our teachings, you'll understand – there is no suffering. That's a choice.

Hans:
That is a choice. You know Alfred, that's interesting you bring that up. A lot of times I have found that people feel that they're spiritual. People feel that they have the answer; they've grown spiritually. If you are suffering in any element, whether it's your work, a friendship, a job, you are not developed spiritually – period. No matter what you say to yourself, no matter how many lies you tell yourself, you are not. Because a true spiritual being knows there is nothing wrong – period. Nothing. So for all of you who are unhappy in the circumstances in your life, what a blessing. It is announcing to you it doesn't work, time to let go of your perceptions and open yourself up to that true spiritual nature of who you are and your life at that point will really begin to change. Alright, well that concludes the lesson for today.

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.

Topic: Recover Your Joy
December 7, 2014





Hans:
Hello everyone. Welcome, welcome. It's a beautiful afternoon here in Asheville, North Carolina. A little rainy and we're supposed to get a little cold, but I guess the whole country is cold. Today's topic is "Recover Your Joy." One of the first things that I recommend, one of the things that we taught Alfred and so many people through the years is: If you want to see something to make you bring joy into your heart, go stick your nose in a flower. If it's winter, and I think I've said this before, pull something up on your computer  and look at the flowers. Just go find some flowers. This will bring a sense of wonder to you. How did all of this ever happen? You know folks, we deny ourselves joy simply though our mind. But there is so much that we can do as simple spirits in human form to remember our joy in life. Nature, I believe is one of the best. You know when I look out of my windows here, we live on the side of a mountain here, and it's all full of trees and water. And when I look outside and even though someone might say: Well, there's no leaves on the trees. You know it's cold. You can find beauty in that. And I find beauty in the way the wind whistles through the trees. And there's still some leftover leaves and we have the squirrels and the raccoons and the chipmunks and every kind of bird you can imagine. And they're all out there and they're not wondering whether or not they're going to be happy or not. They're just worrying about eating, which makes them happy. Nature. Stick your nose in a flower. What do you think Alfred?

Alfred:
Well, what we're trying to do here is give you spiritual practices about helping yourself be happy. And one of the first that Hans is talking about is nature. And you'll notice during the entire show we're going to tell you ways to infuse joy into your life that won't cost you a penny. Or maybe a little bit. We bought a monstrous bag of really good dog food and that cost us about $25...

Hans:
At Costco.

Alfred:
At Costco of course. We're going to feed the raccoons, the possums, the squirrels, the occasional bear, for about three or four months and that cost us $25. I think I spend about $7 on bird food maybe once a month or so. So these are really inexpensive ways to make yourself be happy. And this is so against, like all of our teachings here are, against what they try to teach you on television. Which is: Buy, Buy, Buy. And we're saying: No. Here's a bunch of ways for you to be happy by doing really simple things.

Hans:
I'm going to jump out of our comfort zone for just a moment and say I was really very happy to see on the internet that there was a backlash among the buying public about going from having your Thanksgiving Dinner to running out to shop. Apparently that blew up in their face. That's a good sign for the country. You know, Alfred, one of the things that is really wonderful to do if you're feeling a little down? Go for a walk. Go for a walk and look. Look all around. Look up. Find something interesting. Move yourself out of your sense of despair. And remember that joy is always with you, at all times. You are not separate from your own joy. It's only your mind's perception. I remember Alfred when I told you to go outside and look at a flower. You remember that? 

Alfred:
I thought he was crazy. I said: Flower? Hmm, yeah me city boy who lived in concrete for most of his life...

Hans:
Banker...

Alfred:
Yes. 

(Alfred and Hans chuckling)

Hans:
Banker Consciousness... It was severe, folks.

Alfred:
Yes. So one of the teachings that I now pass along to my students is: If you've got nothing else to do and you want to make yourself feel happy, go stick your nose two inches from a flower. Pretty much I can guarantee you'll feel better.

Hans:
Yes. You really, really are going to feel better. Anything that breaks the mind's perception of the moment has the possibility to bring you joy. Now I know we all have days when there's an appearance that no matter what you do, it's not going to go well. You wonder why you ever got out of bed in the first place or could you just go back to bed. Break the perception of the moment children. That's what's important. Because the mind tends to want to concentrate when you're in lack of joy. It wants to concentrate on the problem. Whatever the problem it perceives it may be. But it wants to go there. It doesn't want you to not fuss. It wants you to suffer. Now Alfred mentioned about feeding the birds or feeding the ducks. These little things that you can do help to break the mind's grip on you and opens up the possibility for joy in your life. Alfred, how many animals are you feeding now do you suppose?

Alfred:
Let's see here. There's the chipmunks, there's the squirrels, there's various types of birds. We now have inherited a medium sized Woodpecker, a couple of bachelor Cardinals, all kinds of regular birds during the daytime. At night we've got possums, we've got the occasional bear, lots of raccoons. And of course The Princess Super Model, Bella.

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
Yes. We can't forget about The Princess Super Model.

Hans:
Alfred, do we have a picture up on the website yet?

Alfred:
Bella?

Hans:
Yes, of Miss Bella.

Alfred:
I should do that actually.

Hans:
Yes. Well you know she said she wants to have an advice column. 

Alfred:
Yes. Advice from The Princess Super Model.

Hans:
Yes. About...

Alfred:
You too...

Hans:
About how to raise your parents.

Alfred:
She does give it a good job.

Hans:
She does indeed. You know Alfred, another thing that one can do is have what I call "a giving mind," a giving consciousness. Look folks, you may not have a lot of money to sort of go around and buy everybody presents and to give a lot of money to different causes. But what you can do, since we know that thoughts are living things, you can serve through your mind. Spirit has always taught me that the thought and the intention is as good as the deed. So, if you could you would, is as good as the deed. It actually adds an energy to giving. So through proper loving thinking you are giving. Now this concept was difficult for Alfred in the beginning. But Alfred you actually have gotten that lesson pretty well.

Alfred:
Yes. And giving again is one of those things that you don't need to give money. You can give of yourself. It starts with the intention to serve...

Hans:
Yes, your thoughts...

Alfred:
... with the intention to be of service. That is most important. But what's really funny is, this is one of the true ways to be happy. We're taught again during the Holiday Season that to be happy you're supposed to "buy things" and we're saying: "That's not necessary." To give, you can simply be of service. 

Hans:
And giving can come from a place in the heart. If you know that one of your friends is down, but they don't want to talk about it, and they're sort of hiding in themselves, you can just go to the Spirit and say: Please, I've done what I can do for this person, would you please help me to infuse the light into them and bring them the possibilities that may be available in their life? And then just let it go. That turns into an action from Spirit that brightens the quality of that person's life. I can't tell you how many times I have heard someone say: Oh my goodness Hans, I was so depressed and I've only talked to you a couple of minutes but I feel so much better. Giving of yourself, giving kind thoughts, giving hugs... There are times people when you're going to come across someone who, whatever the space they're in, they could be angry, jealous... they could not perhaps find a loving space from their parents in their heart who are just really suffering. Just a hug to that person or a quiet prayer for that person does an enormous amount of good.

Alfred:
Yes. It's basically if you're looking for a way to be happy, go find someone else to help and help them be happy. What you give out, comes back to you.

Hans:
Alrighty. Another thing Alfred that people can do is volunteer their time. There are just thousands and thousands of things out there, organizations and programs that need people for an hour a week, three hours a week, five hours a week. Whatever you can afford of your time. And Spirit sees this. And you are so blessed back because of this action of yours. So learning to give unconditionally, this is the key. I remember my dear grandmother and she had this enormous Christmas Card List and through the years I noticed that it got smaller and smaller and smaller. And I said to her: Grandma what's going on? You used to have like 800 people here. I think it's 300 now. She said: Well, I have a motto. I send people a Christmas Card and if I don't get one back I cross them off the list.  And I said: That's a strange way of living. She said: Well, it's my way. But you see she was giving conditionally, not unconditionally. Give your time. A very, very important one when bringing joy back into your life Alfred is to our old nemesis, our old friend here, the mind chatter. Learn to stop your mind chatter about what's in it for you. What do you think?

Alfred:
And that's one of our core teachings that we go through in The Intuitive Development Class that when you are "of service" and you're helping others, have no expectations, no opinions of the result of what's going to happen, if they're going to help you, or what's in it for you. Basically, expectations, opinions and judgments are some deeply seeded mind chatter. And what we try to teach you is...

Hans:
Yes...

Alfred:
... don't add any more to that which you already have. If you're going to go out and give, and volunteer and help, don't allow yourself to have any expectation of anything in return. Or that it's going to help the person, or how it's going to help the person. Just give.

Hans:
Give for the sheer sake Alfred.

Alfred:
So cut your mind chatter off at the pass...

Hans:
Absolutely.

Alfred:
... and say no expectation, no opinion, I'm just giving for the sake of giving and that's it.

Hans:
You'll find Alfred that your mind chatter does want to interfere with your giving sometimes.

Alfred:
Well, we've been trained that way.

Hans:
Well, I know people Alfred who give because it's expected of them. I know people who actually buy people Christmas presents for no other reason than wanting to be loved. That's not the way to be loved. How about sweeping their front porch? You know if you see an older person that you know has difficulty in doing for themselves a 15 minute gesture, 1/2 hour gesture on your part just works wonders. And I want everyone to know God is there for you. Hear it again: God IS there for you. No matter what the appearance. No matter what is going on in your life right now.  Maybe the holidays depress you. God is there for you. Maybe you feel alone for Christmas. God is there for you. All thoughts are living things. The God-force hears all your thoughts. It's an opportunity for you to practice unconditional love to the universe knowing that the God-force is flowing through you in that action. Okay? Alfred, I also believe that people should try to trust that God has your back.

Alfred:
Yes. And that has to do with fear. Another very difficult lesson for a lot of old souls that have been through some very interesting lessons is: this is going to come after me, that's going to happen to me, these lessons are going to continue, I have to protect myself. And what we try to teach to you is that: No, you have an army of supporters on the other side who are there helping you, guiding you. And as long as you tap into that guidance and surrender into the unknown, you want the unknown, you don't want what's in your head. Then you can trust that you're in the flow with the universe and there is nothing to fear.

Hans:
No.

Alfred:
And once you let go of fear and once you trust that you're in the flow, you're going to feel phenomenal.

Hans:
Absolutely. Knowing in your heart, that a non-judgmental God and a non-judgmental Spirit has your back, knowing they have no judgment of you. Knowing that during this time of the year, they draw near to you to remind you how much they love you. And opening yourself up and saying: I know my god loves me. Talk to Spirit, talk to God about letting go of your fears. Remember your fears are not real friends. It's your mind chatter telling you of something that "could" happen. Alfred, I know you do a lot of work with people who have fear. How do you approach this issue?

Alfred:
Well, you can think about Bella and her playing with her toy for example... How's that squeaky toy Bella, is that good?

Hans:
She wants to be heard.

Alfred:
Bella, is that you telling us you're still there?

Hans:
She is, indeed.

Alfred:
Well, we'll have to take a picture of the Super Model and put her up for you. Sweetness... Sweetness, dad is on the radio right now.

Hans:
I hope all of you are grinning as much as I am. She's got her little squeaky rabbit and she's right next to him and she's trying to make a statement about “don't forget I'm here.”

Alfred:
She wants to play. She's nudging my hand. That's just comical. That should make you feel good...

Hans:
Now there's a joyous thing. See – she's in joy right now because you just threw the rabbit.

Alfred:
Yes. Where were we? Oh, have faith and fear. You have two choices. In general spirituality is the opposite of western training, that a lot of us paid a lot of money for is, you're in control. You get what you negotiate. It's up to you. You are the individual who's responsible. That is stressful. Lord knows a lot of us have been there. And we're trying to tell you: There's an option. There is an option to that stress and it's called Letting Go. Going with the flow, having faith, trust and belief in the universe, in your God, in your guidance. And basically what we say is: If you want to be happy, then have faith, believe, let go and you'll realize, I guess God really does want me to be happy. If you want to do the typical human western thing of "I'm in control, it's up to me," well, if you're wondering why you feel bad, that's the reason. 

Hans:
You know Alfred, having faith, having a deep seeded faith, a quiet, gentle understanding that your life is unfolding as it should. Turning off that mind chatter that tries so desperately to disconnect you from your joy, from your peace, from your possibilities. And it works overtime. Having a quiet understanding: It is the way it is supposed to be. I am unfolding into my bounty of love, my abundance, I am unfolding into my god's arms. And having a quiet knowing of this and allowing yourself to just feel the bliss and the power of God around you every day. There's never a time my friends, when you're ever disconnected from God, never ever a time when you're disconnected from God.

Alfred:
And that's where we're heading you towards. Feeling happy. Feeling joyful. Feeling bliss. Feeling peace in your life. You don't have to search for those things. We just gave you a 1/2 hour of different ways to have those things in your life in a matter of minutes for no, if very little money. Okay? And that is the key. That is the key that we try to teach you in so many of our courses is to “feel.” To feel connected to the universe, to feel the vibration and energy of the universal energy. To feel as Obi-Wan Kenobi taught Luke Skywalker, to "Feel The Force."

Hans:
Yes.

Alfred:
Teachings of Joseph Campbell...

Hans:
As Bella's currently doing. She's feeling The Force.

Alfred:
Yes. Bella, are you feeling happy right now sweetness?

Hans:
Yes.

(Hans and Alfred chuckling in the background)

Alfred:
And that is what we're trying to get across to you today is, do things that make you feel good. Like Bella is playing with her squeaky toy...

Hans:
And it makes all of us smile. I mean you can't help it. She's in this wonderful, blissful little world where she has her little stuffed rabbit and she thinks this is the best thing that ever happened to her. She has her dad here. She loves Alfred like herself. They have this wonderful relationship. And she knows that he's there for her. She knows it. Just like you need to know God and Spirit are there for you always. 

Alfred:
And one final thing is when you're doing these things that we're describing, whether you're simply out in nature, whether you're volunteering, whether you're being of service, or whether you're just simply believing and having faith, take a moment and feel the energy. Feel the bliss, feel the joy enter into your soul. Take a moment and feel it enter into your life. Just take a moment and let it sink in.

Hans:
Absolutely. That a wonderful subject. What a wonderful topic, "Recover Your Joy." And Alfred I believe that will conclude the lesson for today.
