To Love What You Are - a talk on the island

Transctiption of "To Love What You Are" talk by Klaus Joehle

All "Talks on the Island"

Recently I’ve released a tape called “Stop Trying to Hug Me”. And since I’ve put this tape out on the Internet on a web page, a few people have responded in an unexpected way. I thought the tape would have a bit of an effect, but I didn’t think at first that it would have that strong of an effect on people. It’s really touched people in a way that sort of makes people react. In other words, it’s touching something inside of a person that makes them react.

At first it might be [that] something about the tape bothers you, maybe the tone of voice, or the way the things are said, or the energy coming from it. There’s nothing wrong with the tape, there’s nothing wrong with what I said on the tape or how I said it. Matter of fact, it’s one of my most favorite tapes, and I’m extremely excited about it. And I’ll explain this to you in just shortly. But first let’s just take a look at this situation. If this tape is bothering you in any way, irritated you in any way, it’s not the tape, it’s that it’s touched something inside of you. And it’s easy enough to go back to the creator of the tape and say: “He is doing this and saying that, not doing that in the right way, and saying it an angry way, or his energy is not truly filled with Love, it doesn’t seem very caring,” or whatever opinion you may have. But the actual fact is – what’s going on is inside you. See, this tape is my tape, it’s my creation and it comes from me. But what’s going on in you when you listen to it, comes from you, not from me.

So, if there’s something bothering you, look inside yourself. You’ll find it, it’s pulling it out. I’m working on Stage Two of releasing resistance. If you’ve been following along with the book, called “Some Things Are Worth Believing In. Money Is Love”, you know that the book is designed to release resistance. I’m now working on Stage Two of that. But also, over the last few moths or maybe a little bit more, almost a year, I’ve made a bit more of a discovery – something I had in my head before, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it.

See, as we begin {to start} sending Love, things begin to change, and we begin to change a little bit. But there is another part to this. I really don’t necessarily think that we need to change so much. We don’t need to become better, we just need to become happier. And that doesn’t necessarily mean changing ourselves. It means Loving ourselves more the way we are. And also, injecting Love into what we are and how we are and what we feel. Now, let’s look at an example.

If you felt a little bit of anger, for some reason, maybe someone took your parking space and they’ve done it several times already, and you’re feeling some irritation and that irritation is building into a little bit of anger. But before it builds into a total volcano-like-anger, you fill it with Love. Now, the Love does not remove it necessarily. The Love gets injected into it, so you still have that feeling of irritation, but you’re injecting Love into it and two things happen:

One – it no longer has control over you , it’s now an experience and the irritation becomes a loving experience, a joyful experience. And I know that sounds a little crazy and over the next few months I will try to explain this a little bit more if you don’t fully understand it yet. But remember, we come here to experience, we come from a place of total Love, so we don’t come to just experience Love, we come to experience all these dramatic experiences that we go through during life. (0508) And some of those things are irritation and anger, I am just using those two things as an example. Excitement is also an example.

But what happens is: when you take love and you inject it with the feeling of irritation something new is created. The energy of love and the energy intent that was there from the irritation, get put together and the two of them {are} turning to something absolutely fantastic. It is like the irritation is something really wonderful. And again that’s hard to describe but the irritation is no longer painful, it’s an enjoyable irritation. Not necessary one that you wanna continue on with, but it turns into a more enjoyable experience. Still the irritation is there, the little bit of the anger is there but it totally changes this. What it does? It creates something that was never there before, that has never been on this planet, {that has never} existed before. And each time a person does it – it’s different. It is like wine. There are thousands of wine-makers all over the world, but each wine tastes so different that a person who has learned to taste wines can actually tell you what year and what region and may be even who the wine-maker is. It’s that unique! And when you mix an emotion that you have with love there is a wine created that is so unique. It is on to itself and you will find it no where else in the universe. You created it that moment and it will not be duplicated. Someone else will do a similar thing, we also have the irritation and anger, add love to it but the two combining will change to a slightly different flavor. So by adding love we’re actually creating, creating a new experience, creating a new emotion, a new flavor of experience, new flavor of emotion that didn’t exist before.

Through the process of working with love we become the creators that we originally were. But now we’re doing it in our physical bodies. And tell me: is that not exciting? I am excited! I played it with this tape, but I didn’t think it would really come out. And yet it had a reaction. And you know why it has a reaction? Because the mixture of love and the mixture of a little bit of frustration on my side and irritation together created such a wonderful flavor that it’s having a reaction of people. It’s sort of like creating a wine and people drink it and they go: “This is good, no, this is bad, this is good, I am not sure yet, this is… I have to take another sip”. And you want to take another sip and you are trying to decide where it is: “is it really good , is it really bad? is it medium?, is it excellent?, not sure yet” -- it’s reacting of you. The wine is now and the chemical of the wine is now reacting with the chemicals in your body, because that is how wine works. Same as perfume reacts with your chemicals and changes from person to person. You can have ten people put on a same perfume: it will smell slightly different on each person, because the chemical composition of the bodies and the hormones are all different. The same way this changes.

Now I played with this tape and I let it go and I thought: fist try, first experience, it probably won’t be that good, but right off the bat, right off the bat I got a reaction, I got a reaction from my wife, I got a reaction from Kostya and I’ve had a reaction from several other people. Not all bad, but it’s touching them. You see that’s what it does.

So, now I am working on this process of rather then using love to change everything, using love by injecting it into what’s there. And allowing of that to sort of cook and turning to something else. It’s like adding, it’s like making wine, really that’s the best example I can think of. And each time, each time a person does it with themselves it will be different and it’s really a wonderful experience. I am absolutely totally excited about it but I am still only at the beginning stages of it. So I don’t fully know on how it’s all gonna work out, exactly how to do it. I can’t really give you proper instructions yet. All I can tell you as far as instructions what I’ve done is basically {I} felt whatever I feel. I allow myself to feel like… First I make it absolutely OK -- in other words if someone is taking your parking spot you make it absolutely OK to feel whatever comes. By making it OK you’re already beginning the process of opening your heart center, because when you say “OK” there is a relaxation out of course and you’re letting go a bit. Then you do what? With practice that opens your heart centers and flow love. And we allow that love to flow into that emotion, and I sort of do that in my mind, I see the emotion in my body as a slight cloud and I see the love coming out of my body as a mist and mixing with that cloud and turning into something new, radiant. I don’t know what it is, I just allow it. And then I spoke into the recorder. And that’s what came out. Most of my recordings I don’t like listening to. I am not totally happy with them, I am never really satisfied. I always feel like I can do better. This one -- I’ve listen to it five times and each time I love it! Because I could tell that it was something new created there. I could feel the energy – it was just absolutely wonderful, it’s brand new and I created it. I created it taking my emotions and taking love and putting them two together, it’s like I bottled it and by putting it onto the recorder I, sort of, bottled it in a sense and there it is!

So think about this a little bit, see if you have some interest in it and over the next few months I am sure we will talk about in some more. I have a whole idea how to bring this out and, at the same token, increase the releasing of the resistance, Stage 2 of it. But this time I am thinking I am gonna hide it a little bit more in stories. So I am gonna combine this two together in little packages of stories, because I think we can absorb it easier if it’s a story and it’s more relaxing to read and probably a little bit more enjoyable and entertaining to read. And I believe I can put both these things now together. It’s been a long year and a tough year to get this far. And I am really, really excited about it. Hope you can hear that and for those of you who listened to the tapes I hope you play along and we will see the journey ends up.

Talk to you guys later.
