The art of sending love. Audio talk transcription

Fri, 19 Jun 2009 11:24:15 GMT

So, let’s call this recording “The art of sending love”.

There’re some reoccurring questions that keep coming up and it comes back to one principle: it’s difficult to understand exactly how this sending love works, and when we first start with it we always look to see if it’s working. Unfortunately, at the beginning we can’t always see it working. {and even though, you know} We step out and we send love to an individual, we expect to see some results, we expect to see that person happier or something change in their life right away. And something does change in their life. Sending love works each and every time, no matter what, but we don’t always see it.

Now I’ll try to explain what happens. Recently somebody wrote something in the talk board and this is a perfect example. This individual was sending love to his or her parents and put a real effort into it and was expecting a change. So, the next day after they came from work this individual asked the parents how they were feeling, if the day was any better but the parents responded: “No, the day was not very good” and they were not feeling very good.

You can tell almost instantly from the vibration that comes off from the writing that this is the tone of those individuals. Some individuals just aren’t that happy. I’ve been there myself. I spent a lot of years just going through life being very unhappy, sometimes even smiling but almost carrying this dark cloud along with me. And in many ways being unlucky, some ways being lucky, but just carrying a bit of “unluck” with me.

Now I’ll try to explain it this way: there’s been some scientific research done by numerous people and the results have always been the same. And here’s one example of the test they did: they took people, ones said that they were lucky and some that felt they were unlucky. Those people that said they were lucky people they found them to be actually happier people, the ones that said to be unlucky, they found that these people were not quite as happy and they were always leaning towards looking at the negative of things.

So, what they did is: they knew that the person, each person will take a certain route on this particular day and what they did is they put money in their pathways in numerous different ways. And I’ll just explain one: putting money in a pathway exactly where they gonna walk like a twenty dollar bill so they could not miss it. The lucky people found the money over ninety percent of the time, the unlucky people, the ones that aren’t that happy, very rarely found the money. They’d step around it, they would change routes instantly and literally go around the money or a gust of wind would come up and blow the money just out of their path seconds before they would get there. Things would just kind of go a mess.

So, then they said: “Well, this is something is not quite right here. It’s almost like the Universe in itself, the conditions that happen arrange things so that this money doesn’t end up in their hands”. Yet for the lucky people it worked exactly the opposite way: one instant a gust of wind picked up the money and blew it up in the air into the person’s face so they couldn’t miss it.

Now, what they found is that even when they made absolutely sure that the unlucky person got the twenty dollars and at the end of the day they would asked the person about their day, these people wouldn’t even mention that they received free twenty dollars. They were so busy focused on all the negative stuff that happened during the day that that’s what they explained and there was no mention of anything really good that happened in that regard and the twenty dollar bill is just one example. They did many other things, but each time they questioned the unlucky people they had nothing to say about it, they wouldn’t even mention it. Yet the lucky people – that’s the very first thing they mentioned.

And like I explain, when you think about something you talk about it, you think about it, you feel it, the Universe gets that message and creates more of it. So, the lucky person says: “Ha! First thing that happened is - I got twenty bucks today! How do you like that! Free! I didn’t have to do anything – it just flew right in my face!” And there’s a really strong, powerful feeling of that. That feeling is what the Universe senses and it creates more of it. “Oh, you receive money, you like receiving money? Well, I will set up coincidences, investments, high paying jobs, all kinds of things for you to bring in more money”.

Yet the other person who considers oneself unlucky, who has a little bit of a dark cloud carrying around they talked about and felt the negative things that happened that day. And so the Universe sets up the coincidences to create more of it.

Now, when we send love, when we start with it, the first thing we really should do is send it to ourselves. That’s the very first priority: is radiate it out, open ourselves up, bring ourselves into a good feeling, start thinking about positive things because as you send love you increase the power of attracting everything to you. So you wanna make sure you think about all the things that you really like, all the positive things at the same time. So that you’re really engaging the energy. It’s sort of like starting up your car engine having a big engine in it but you’re not gonna actually drive anywhere. So, what you want to do is think about the positive things, force yourself on a positive side, force yourself, if you have to, to think of all the positive things that happen during the day. And while you’re radiating out love then you by a hundred times, a thousand times increase the power of attracting that back towards you.

So, when we send love, let’s say to an individual like that, what happens? So, here we are, we’re radiating out love, we see love going towards them, we want them to live a happier life. But we don’t focus so much on that. Just that their life is improving, that they’re getting happier but mostly we wanna focus on just radiating the love out, letting it flow to them, not so much really pushing it at them, just let it flow there and enjoy that, and let it be. And trust in your own mind that things will improve.

Now, the Universe reacts instantly, that energy reacts instantly to go out and do something. And it could have very easily brought twenty dollars into their life laying right in front of them where they’re walking. But, because of their own mental attitude, seeing the negative, feeling the negative constantly and not really moving out of that, they would’ve missed the twenty dollars. Perhaps.

A lot of times when you send love, it’s so powerful that coincidences and circumstances are lined up in such a way that they probably won’t miss the twenty and they’ll actually receive the twenty. But you know what, at the end of the day when you ask them, they’re not gonna tell you about the twenty dollars. They’re gonna say: “No, my day wasn’t very well, I’m tired, I’m not feeling very well”. They’re down, they’re depressed. That boost that they’ve received wasn’t enough to counteract their own thinking patterns. And you can’t do anything about that.

That’s very simply the way it is. It’s sort of like taking a bug out of a jar of water and having it fly right back in, and you lift it out, and it flies right back in, and you lift it out, and it flies right back in. At some point we have to sort of let go and this is where the sending love works the best because you sort of let go, at the same time you allow the love to flow to them. But you let go of it.

Because the more you try to check how things are working (“How is your day? Is your day better now? Is your day better now?”), it’s almost in a sense like you’re focusing yourself on a negative side and you’re seeing the negative side, the down side. When you truly have faith and trust in it and believe that it will improve their lives, then you don’t have to even ask. You just know it well. You may not see it, like I said, and you may not hear it but on a continuous basis maybe, if they receive that twenty dollars every day for ten days, maybe a little light will go on finally. And they’ll open up a little bit and say: “Wow, you know, money seems to be coming to me better” and you see now they’re starting to be on a positive side. Now they’ve set out a positive frequency and they’ve allowed and agreed a little bit and the Universe says: “Yeah, I hear you clearly” and more starts to come in.
1101
And this is just one example, this can be happen in many, many different ways. They could’ve been at work and someone did a very kind thing. They may not even know about it. See, when you radiated out that love, another co-worker might’ve gone to the boss and said: “Hey, Fred is doing a fantastic job, you know, he’s always on time and he’s very helpful of everyone else”. Now, no one else would know about that but it was done and it has an effect on the entire circumstances because the boss then feels better about that person and changes his attitude or her attitude a little bit.

See, it all begins and starts to flow wherever there’s a space where that love can go in and make a difference, it will start wherever it’s allowed. If a person totally shuts down, in every single faucet, so that when you send love out, you radiate it out, there’s no possibility of allowance of any change, then there isn’t because there is the thing called freedom. We have freedom in this Universe to say “No” to whatever. And the person can say “No”. And when they’re in a state of total unhappiness like that, they are saying: “No”. That is what that unhappiness is.

Now, most of the time, you know, we say “No” in certain areas and still have a bit of an allowing in other areas and that’s where it will slide in and begin to make a change. It’s like a garden that’s been[, you know,] very dry, not enough water and a little bit of water comes in. It doesn’t really soak into the ground just a few places here and there, but it’s a start. It starts to soften the ground a little bit and the next time {when} there’s some more water, the ground is softened a bit and it absorbs the next small rainfall a lot easier, and the next one a lot easier and then so it slowly starts and it builds and… Hey, with people one or two years is not a long time. If a person that’s been carrying a dark cloud around for thirty years, you’re not gonna leave that cloud in one day – that’s just not gonna happen. I mean, a lot of circumstances may change but the person will still hang on to the cloud, that’s the thing. That’s what makes it so difficult to change. It can change in one day but most people don’t allow it. Because this is familiar.

Whether things are good or bad, a lot of time we hang on to them because they’re familiar. And we hang on to bad things because they’re familiar. At least it’s something we know. In other words, it’s always changing and, you know, things you aren’t sure even… something bad to hang on to is better than nothing sometimes. Even to know that something not so good will happen today is better than nothing, not knowing anything. Sometimes we hang on to the familiar because it at least gives us something to hold on to and so it takes time to release that hold. It’s a slow, long process, but if the person has patience, continues to send love and just trusts, things will improve over time. Allow it a year[, you know,] if [maybe] that’s what it takes, I try not to put a timeline on these things. I just allow it to be, because I realize that by putting a timeline on it I’m really putting pressure on it for myself and I’m saying: “This has to change in this amount of time” and it really doesn’t.

I see e-mails and writing from individuals who have carried a bit of a cloud around and felt a bit unlucky and they make the effort of sending love and radiating out love and they go: “I don’t feel anything. I don’t feel any different, I don’t see any changes”. Well, that [right there] is making a statement and making a statement to the Universe. And if they were radiating out some love over a three-day period, I know, things have changed. I know, something has changed. Somewhere. They are not recognizing it, paying attention to it or probably not even seeing it. Like I said, it can be working behind the scenes with other people and other circumstances that we don’t even know. It could be as simple as the person might have got laid off but the Universe started making changes outside of what we can see with other individuals and things got rearranged and the person still has the job. He wouldn’t even know that all this was going on, but those changes remain. They might have driven home and got into an accident, but because of the radiating out love and beginning the process, the circumstances were changed, the timing was changed and he avoided the accident. But they would never have known that he was going to be an accident or the car would have gotten broken in two, or something would have gotten stolen, or something would have gotten missing, all kinds of things that we don’t even know about begin to change. And we don’t always see them. That’s the whole point.
1715
We’re always looking for the evidence of everything. In this world when you make a change and you always look instantly for the evidence, that’s gonna be a failure. Doesn’t matter what you do. I don’t care, if you work in a stock market, you can buy stocks and you can stare at it for the next fifteen minutes, it’s not gonna change anything. It’ll either go up or it’ll go down. But just because you’re staring at it, it does not make a change instantly. So you have to kind of allow the thing to flow. And if you’re a bit of unhappy person, it’s got to be given a time to flow in. It will work on the outside where you can’t see it or you can’t have an effect on it or you can’t really stop it by pointing at it and criticizing it, so it will work on the outside and start making changes in your life. And slowly that will work closer and closer to you or then maybe you can start seeing some of the things that happen. But that will take time.

And before that thing happens, some changes in your thoughts and feelings have to change ‘cause that’s in a sense is our work. It’s our responsibility to start changing our feelings. If we just sit here in a miserable mood and start radiating out love that is not gonna change our miserable mood, because what we’re saying by that is: “I radiate out love but my mood is not gonna change”. We have to actually change it by changing our thoughts. Otherwise it’s just playing tug-of-war with the Universe. We turn the switch off, the Universe tries to turn the light on, we turn it off, Universe on, we turn it off… It doesn’t do any good.

So we start by thinking about the positive things: “What’s it like to receive a free twenty dollars? How good is it feel?” Forget about all the other stuff, start thinking about positive stuff. What that does, it allows the work that the Universe is doing with your radiating out love and all that energy that you’re radiating out, that love that you’re sending out. When you make a change inside, you think of a big circle, huge circle, like a bubble – not really a bubble but a circle of lines around it. You’re in the inside. When you start sending love things begin to change way on the outside circle – that’s the first place the love starts to work because that’s where its allowances are. 2018 {And that’s where you can really metall, so it can start to make changes there.} As the individual makes changes him or herself, then the love can work closer and closer inside the circle. And we make that changes by looking at positive things, looking at things that [, say, that] we want, the life experiences that we want and imagining them as if we already have them so much so that it gives us a good feeling. See what that does? That creates allowing. That thought, that feeling does not do the creating. There’s some confusion out there of other things that have been written and so forth but that has no energy, that doesn’t do the creating at all. And love that you radiate out now flows through you – that does do the creating. But what you do with your feelings does the allowing. See, now all of a sudden as you do this you begin allowing the love you’ve radiated out to create that for you.

It’s sort of like wanting a relationship. So really nice loving fun relationship, one that you can think about during a day and it makes you happy and when you think about it you let go of all other worries and it’s one way you can trust the person, you never have to worry about the person if they go out of town. It doesn’t matter. You don’t have to worry about them doing anything it’s just you feel safe. That’s a kind of relationship, [let’s say,] that you want. So, you start imagining that. At the same time you begin working with radiating out love. That love starts to create that. And now because you’re thinking about this relationship and feeling it, you’re allowing it, the Universe gets a very clear signal, that love that you sent out has a very clear signal of what you want to create. See, you’ve made a statement with your feeling, of what you want. And at the same time because you’re already feeling it, you’re allowing it and so that love can create it and bring that individual to you, and you to that individual.

And at the very beginning the love will work on the outside circle finding that person, lining them up, but they won’t quite reach you until you do the allowing. The more you do the allowing, the closer that person comes. So, now that person might be in the same city, you do some more allowing and pretty soon that person starts hanging around in the same neighborhood, you do some more allowing and pretty soon that person starts shopping in the same stores, you do some more allowing by practicing it, the feeling of having that relationship as if you have it, have the actual feelings of it and pretty soon that person is now standing beside you. See, you’ve allowed it.
2330
There’s a radiance that comes from you that actually holds things back when you’re not in the right vibration for it and the right feeling tone for it, when you say “no” by looking at relationships and saying: “I’m not good enough for relationships, relationships don’t work for me. Other people have them but I’ll probably never have a good one like that. Even if I did have a good one like that, it probably wouldn’t last anyway”. That’s a feeling. There’s a feeling radiating out when I say that and that feeling is going towards the love. This sort of love is trying to create something wonderful for you despite what you’re saying. But it can’t bring it to you. It’ll kind of hover around you at a point where probably you will never even see it or sometimes the allowing is enough where we can actually see it. In other words when it gets close enough you’ll see it in other people, you’ll see other people have it – that tells you that it’s already close enough that you visually can see it.
2441
It’s sort of like saying you want more money and as you begin to allow it, the Universe is creating it for you of the energy that you’re sending out, that love that you’re radiating out is creating it, is bringing it towards you, the first thing you gonna see is other people with it. All around you other people will have that kind of financial wealth and then it gets a little closer and you’ll see more people and those people will become closer to you. In other words, maybe you want just read about them or see them on TV, now you might actually see them physically and then, as you practice more, that comes a little closer and then pretty soon you’re meeting them physically, maybe even talking to them and then a little bit more, and then you’re having more interactions with them and all of a sudden something starts to click, because now everything is close enough, the Universe can give you the circumstances, events and suggestions from other people, like one of those people might say: “Hey! There’s a job offer over here and I think it pays about three times as much as what you’re paying now and I can go talk to the fellow and put a word in for you. How about that?” There’s your beginning. But first you have to allow it. (26:07)

So, how we do allow it? Come on, how do we allow it? We allow it by imagining it, pretending it so much so, that to us it’s there. Whether it’s not there or not doesn’t make any difference. Forget about the world - the world is not real anyway. It is an illusion. A lot of people say: “We can’t go around pretending”. The world you see is pretending. It’s not real, folks. So, start pretending that you have that which you don’t have which you want -- as if you have it, so that you can start the allowing. And what’s the sending love for? Well, it’s your creating process.

So, do right this: take a few moments, radiate out some love, pretend you have what it is you want, radiate out a little bit more love and just stay in a state of having it. If you try to improve your parents’ life, well, this is what you would do: you would pretend their life is the way you think it should be. Now it will probably never be the way you think it should be, but you can make it a happier life for them, more abundant for them and the more they begin to allow through the process, the better and better and better it gets. So, you would imagine them very happy, very successful at work and no matter what you hear from them you would just ignore it. This is what you’d see and feel. This is what you would feel. At the same time you would radiate out love, you will create the circumstances for them, you are the one that now creates the allowing for them. You see, you’re starting the allowing process for them, because you live perhaps with them, around them, you’re close to them, even though they aren’t at the allowing state yet – you are. And that in itself makes an opening. And because you’re their son or daughter, or they love you, there’s this connection.

And it’s like an individual oneness. And when you have that individual oneness between a group of people like a family, of really, really close friends or loved ones -- you can start doing the allowing for them and the process will move a lot faster but you have to be in that state. So, the next time you write something you best write: “How wonderful it is!” and not be complaining: “Oh, it’s not working, I don’t see a difference, I don’t know if it’s gonna work”. Well, you’ve just made a statement to as many people as will read that letter. If ten thousand people read that letter, you’ve given a message to ten thousand people. Never mind just those people, the Universe, but each one of those people will have a feeling at that moment. That feeling goes out. And that feeling becomes an added resistance. If you tell the entire world of your bad luck in your crappy life the entire world for that few seconds while they hear that will have a feeling and will help you create that crappy life.
2935
Now if you turn that around and instead write little notes, and letters, and e-mails and stuff saying: “How wonderful it is, how incredible it is!, how happy my parents and friends are, my lover is, my daughter, my son” - each time someone reads that they add to that. They add to the allowing that brings them together. And in a sense they help that individual allow those very circumstances to come to them. Does that help? Understand? You can’t be in a situation and write someone that a situation hasn’t changed. You have to be so immersed in it that I don’t care what it is, [but] what you see -- is what you want. That’s all you feel and that’s all you see. Everything else doesn’t matter. Just what you want. How you want to feel, how you want to experience your life. That’s where you gonna put your mind and your heart is gonna be set on radiating and flowing that energy that creates the entire Universe. It just gonna flow through you and create all that. So, your mind stays on what you want. I don’t care what’s happening, I don’t care of an atom bomb blows up in your backyard. You only see and feel in your mind that what you want to experience. And your heart does one thing - it flows the energy. That’s it.
3115
See, there’s two very simple things. I know, it’s not so easy at the beginning and it takes time and practice and I made a lot of tapes, book called: “Money is love” for you to put you right through the whole process, so you can read exactly what a person goes through as you go through the process. I can’t make it any [more] simpler, easier to understand. I’ve put myself into the practice of doing it and showed you how I live my day-to-day life, how I think, how I change my feelings towards having what I want as if I have it and at the same time in a sense radiating out love, flowing that energy out.

Those are two jobs: focus on what we want until our feeling is there, feel it until our feeling is there. And at the same time allowing the love to flow through us which creates everything. And this is how we become these incredible glowing suns, you know, like radiating out love and at the same time fully allowing.

When you’re fully radiating love and fully allowing, so much incredible stuff happens on it every day – you can’t even keep up with it. It just will almost drives you crazy. Some days I have to physically slow it down because it’s too much for me. There is an odd thing to say, isn’t it? “Too much good for me”. Well, this is a kind of an individual I am. I like to be happy but I also like to be sad sometimes. I like to be angry sometimes, I like to be irritated sometimes – I like all of those feelings. I don’t like to be just incredibly happy.

Well, actually, I am incredibly happy because I’m incredibly happy when I’m irritated because it’s a feeling now. It’s a feeling separated from me. It’s one I have a choice whether I want to feel it or not. And now it just becomes an experience so I’m happy either way but I have direction on how I feel and what I feel and how much I feel. And it’s a wonderful feeling of freedom, of joy to have that, to build it, to direct my life in so many ways.

And it’s so simple. I just put my mind on what I want as if I have it. Some things, [you know what,] I forget that I didn’t even have them. And I found that the experience of pretending that I had them was already enough… Of course I end up getting them anyway but by that time I’ve already experienced [that] having them so much that it wasn’t really that much necessary to have it any more. Cause I’ve gotten so good at it’s still nice to have them but I’ve already gone through the experience and sometimes even moved to something else.
3430
Anyway, I hope that explains some more about sending love and… Have fun and trust. Trust in something, believe in something. I mean, if you gonna believe in something, why not believe in this? You know, there’s a lot of things you can believe in in this world. Some things are really worth of believing in and I think, what I just explained to you is worth believing in, no matter what – what better could you have, or could you find or believe in -- than that?

"Self-Protecting Beliefs" talk by Klaus Joehle

Fri, 22 May 2009 08:40:09 GMT

This audio talk was recorded around June 24, 2006. It was transcribed in 2007 by Maria Faraonova and Kostya Kovalenko.

So, let’s talk about why some beliefs are so hard to change, and [K: why is it] so hard to find out what we believe. ‘Cause really the main issue is we want to achieve certain things in life, get certain experiences, have certain things and it doesn’t quite work because we have beliefs inside of us that turn those things off.

People with beliefs close to surface

So, let’s divide people into two categories. It’s not always fair to do that, but to simplify this explanation, there are people that you can hypnotize and there’re people who you cannot hypnotize. The ones that you can hypnotize, their beliefs sit fairly close on the surface and their beliefs are quite easily adjusted. (And this is not a bad thing, you know, I’ll explain this to you in a second.) So that makes them easy to hypnotize because their beliefs are close to the surface and so adjustments in what they believe can easily be done.

This is a nice thing in many ways. It’s also a bit a risky thing in this world, because we have a lot of people in this world who would take advantage of someone and so it makes them a little easier to take advantage of. That’s not a bad trait, it’s just one of the consequences of it. But when they see something that clicks true for them like, for instance, let’s say, they read my book “Living on love” and they find out that we have the ability to direct the energy that creates the Universe and everything we see… We have the ability to direct that energy what we call “love” into whatever we want to create, whatever we want to experience in life.

When they see that, it makes sense to them, they adjust their beliefs instantly or very quickly, and they begin to practice it, it works for them, because their belief kicks in the switch that says: “Yes” -- and it starts to work for them and off they go like little butterflies. And immediately their life starts to change and it gets better and better, and the things that they want come to them more quickly and more quickly all the time. And that in itself than also strengthens their belief which then increases the flow.
See, the ability to create what we want by sending love and directing that energy that creates Universes has to be turned on and what we believe turns it on or off. If we believe we have the ability and we deserve it, it turns it on. If we believe it doesn’t work or we believe we don’t deserve it, it’s turned off. And sometimes it’s turned on to a certain degree and then after that turned off.

People with deeper beliefs

Now there’s the other side to the people who you cannot hypnotize. And those are the people whose beliefs are self-protecting. They sit deeper within, they are not very easily changed, they hide themselves and cover themselves to make sure they are not touched or changed. Now this also has a purpose, it makes those people harder to redirect and harder to control and harder to deceive. But it makes also much more difficult for them to change their lives!

So when they find something like sending love and they go: “Yes, this is wonderful! This is the piece of information I’ve been looking for!” -- and there’s a belief that runs against them - that belief begins to hide itself because it’s already threatened and [it] covers itself up and maintains itself.

Then you might say: “Oh, it doesn’t make sense”. Oh, yes, it does. It makes perfect sense, a lot of this gets developed early on when we were children. Some of us have had to put our beliefs and bury them deep down so they could not forcibly be changed. A lot of these beliefs are self-protecting, they actually [K: have] protected us at one time, maintained us and gave us our survival. (Yet further down the road they’ve become the opposite, they actually hold us back.) But they were designed to maintain themselves so no matter what someone tries, no matter how much will they have, or whether they try to physically beat it out of us -- they cannot change it, because those beliefs are sitting in there.

So, when we have that, when we have a person like that who wants to achieve things but has beliefs sitting deep down that won’t allow him to make the change, won’t allow the person to change the financial situation and the beliefs in it then… They sort of become a little bit stuck.

Ask yourself

The only way to get that belief out is to ask yourself. See someone else can say the words what the belief might be and you walk away from it. You listen to it and go: “Yeah, I might believe that or might not”. In you, you actually have something that pulls you away. So even if you pick up a book that’s designed to release those limiting beliefs, something in you will re-wrap and make you put that book down -- because like I said they’re self-protecting and they will protect themselves against any threat, outside threat, whatsoever.

The only way in -- is for you yourself to go in and the only way in -- is to begin to ask questions: “What do I believe?” about a particular subject. And it’s usually best to take a side door. If you’re looking for, let’s say, something about money or relationships, don’t take the direct route, take a little bit of a side route and ask: “What do I believe about this?” And it can be a very simple subject, perhaps, a subject that you’ve been asking questions about, thinking about and just start there, ask yourself: “What do I believe about that? What do I really believe about it?” Be absolutely honest.

This takes a little bit of time, and it takes digging, and it doesn’t come very easily. It takes work. For those of us who’ve buried our beliefs very deeply it can take weeks, even longer to work out, to get in there, because there’re so many layers on top protecting that belief and those beliefs -- that now they’ve become more of a hindrance than anything else. But at one time they had to be maintained at all cost.

How we can use our deep beliefs

See, it may seem unbeneficial to have beliefs that root themselves so deeply. But the good part of that is – if, for instance, you were then finally able to change your belief about financial abundance and really started having a belief about abundance that “money comes to you easily”… I mean, it comes to you so fast and so much that half the time you can’t even find places to put all this money -- you make so much money! Once that belief is set in, it will bury itself in and defend itself and it will stay there the rest of your life, and even an atom bomb won’t be able to get that belief out.

So it’s a matter finding the ones that are now limiting, changing those and leaving the rest in place. Instilling a new belief. And this is not easy, this really does take work. But once it’s in – that’s the beautiful part of it -- it’s in! Nothing will root this thing out. So it will stay in there and any will build itself and strengthen itself.

0942

Whereas if you’re the person that, let’s say, easily hypnotized, your beliefs are easily changed to what you want but they can also easily be disrupted again. But at the same token, you know, either one isn’t any better than the other. It just that either one serves the purpose. And you gonna fall into either in one of those two categories or somewhere in between.

And the reason I used the hypnotizing thing is: that’s the easiest way to discover which side you [sort of] flip on. So, if you’re the type of person that can be hypnotized very easily, you know that your beliefs change easily, so you know that you want to keep your thoughts and what you do and think about towards what you really like and enjoy. And that way your beliefs are maintained on what you want, how you want to experience your life.

If you’re falling the other direction, you know that to change a belief is gonna take some work, you gonna have to go in there and dig it out. That’s not gonna be easy. And some of you are gonna to have to work really, really hard.

1120

When you sit somewhere in between, also this is a grey area you could be half ways in between which makes a little bit harder but not as hard as for some of us.

My beliefs

For myself, most of my beliefs are so deeply buried that you really can’t touch them. Some of them I know of, some of them I’m only slowly now discovering. Some of them, I know, they are buried so deep and are set in so in place that without of those beliefs I wouldn’t be alive today. So, they become very important, but eventually some of them do need to be changed, and do need to be adjusted so that we can move on of our lives.

Change your beliefs yourself

It’s sort of like having armor. At some point we don’t need the armor any more and that becomes a burden where at one time it was a survival thing. It’s like a sword: there comes the time when we don’t really need it any more so it’s best to let go of it -- but if it has tied itself to our arms -- they do not always let go so easily.

So, if you’ve tried many different things in your life, and you feel they failed or if they worked a little bit, and then they just seem to stop working, and it’s not like you’re not trying.

(I mean sometimes people don’t really try. You know, they say they do but five minutes of effort or three days of effort or going to a seminar, getting all hyped up for two days, playing with it for one more week and then letting it go and going back to old patterns – that’s really not trying to make any change, that’s just playing around.)

But if you seriously have been trying to make some changes most likely you have a belief inside of you that’s sitting there. And with all honesty and with all assurance I guarantee you -- that someone else can’t dig it out. ‘Cause it’s there to protect itself. So the minute someone else starts to dig on it you close off. Only you can dig on it. You can do that with someone else by having someone listening and you do the talking and it has to be someone that you feel safe with and can trust. Otherwise the belief will just bury itself. It feels any way that there’s a threat -- you will cover yourself up and just shift around.

Hope that gives you a little bit better understanding of beliefs and why sometimes they are hidden. We’ll talk about it some more later.

Klaus Joehle about the future of mankind

Tue, 03 Feb 2009 17:34:47 GMT

So, recently on a talkboard I saw something about someone’s prediction of the future of the mankind and it was really doom and gloomy. And I tell you mankind’s prediction isn’t doom and gloomy, it’s quite happy. Yes, there gonna be some rough things we gonna go through, but we have done so for several thousand years. So, it’s nothing new, but this planet, everything will improve more and more year after year. It’s not a gloomy future we have, it’s a very good and exciting future. Anyway, there will be some earthquakes here and there and so forth, we’ve had that for many years, we had droughts and all kinds of things in various parts of the world and that’s nothing new, this goes on thousands of years there’s always weather changes and the beliefs of people drawing things to them. If you can convince a million people in a place of doom and gloom and have them fear for it enough, they’ll all create that doom and gloom for them. And the people that don’t believe it, they will leave and go somewhere else.

So, when you accept that, you begin to accept that into your life. That’s why I always say it’s so important to accept the positive stuff and reject the negative stuff. Even at the worst it’s still better to believe in the positive even though maybe some negative things may be coming in the direction of us, but it’s better to believe in a happy future than in a negative future. And you will create much more wonderful stuff, believing in a happy future than in a negative future.

Mosaic in Nanaimo unveiled!

Thu, 30 Oct 2008 08:05:40 GMT

Klaus and Roberta Joehle get the first feel after unveiling Wesley Street’s latest addition Thursday morning – a six-by-seven foot marble mosaic depicting a chef on a bicycle. The mosaic was made from more than 23,000 hand-cut marble and travertine pieces, took more than 400 hours to complete and has an estimated worth of $15,000. The Joehles, who created and donated the piece to the Old City Quarter, are now in talks with the City of Nanaimo to donate a mosaic for the Diana Krall Plaza.

Mosaics from Klaus to be given to the city

Wed, 10 Sep 2008 06:35:56 GMT

On the picture: Klaus Joehle glues tiny pieces of marble to create a 33-square-foot image of a chef. The mosaic will be installed in the Old City Quarter, across from St. Andrew’s United Church.

The pieces fit

By Melissa Fryer - Nanaimo News Bulletin
Published: September 08, 2008 3:00 PM

Klaus Joehle snaps a piece of pale, beige marble into a one-centimetre cube and glues it to the bottom of a six-foot-high sheet of cardboard.

Only about 20,000 more to go.

Of the thousands of tiny squares already fixed to the sheet you can see the outline of a chef juggling wine and groceries, presumably on his way back to his restaurant.

Once finished the 33-square-foot piece will go up in the Old City Quarter across from St. Andrew’s Church sometime in late October. The Old City Quarter Association will then own a piece of art worth $10,000 to $15,000.

“When we say mosaics, the first thing people think is smashed dishes,” Joehle said.

Bad Boys Mosaics, Joehle’s studio on Richards Street below McLean’s Specialty Foods, is lined with intricate designs made of tiny pieces of marble, ceramic tile and glass.

Joehle, who is a tiler by trade, installed his first mosaic in a house.

“I did an entrance way in big square tiles,” Joehle said. “I asked the owners if I could do something to make it interesting.”

He created a carpet, complete with tassels, using spare tiles. The owners were thrilled.

“Someone else saw it and it just went from there,” Joehle said.

Article about mosaics by Klaus Joehle in a local news bulletin

Wed, 10 Sep 2008 06:30:36 GMT

An article at nanaimobulletin.com:

Marble mosaics improve with time
Published: September 08, 2008 3:00 PM

It took two years to develop a cutting style that would allow him to cut small pieces without turning the tile to dust. His juggling chef requires more than 33,000 pieces, none larger than a centimetre.

“You can’t do that on an ordinary tile saw,” Joehle said.

Few schools teach mosaics and guilds are closed to the public. Joehle taught himself to cut tile through a process of trial and error.

“It just takes a long time,” he said. “I’m one of those people who doesn’t give up.”

He also understands why mosaic artists keep their skills and techniques to themselves.

“You go through so much to learn it, to give it away seems senseless,” Joehle said. “I give people other tips.”

Joehle and his wife, Roberta, moved to Nanaimo in 2000 but found little interest from the community in mosaic artwork. He worked in his trade, tiling homes, and every so often surprised a client with a design.

His work can now be found all over the city, including Cameron Island and the entrance way to the Beacon tower, and Mandeez Clothing in Port Place shopping centre. Joehle is in talks with the city to donate a mosaic depicting Nanaimo’s heritage downtown.

Joehle recreates pictures and logos, plus commission work for walls, floors, bathrooms, kitchens and swimming pools.

Most of his work is made from marble – for the colour variation – and will last forever. Despite the fall of Rome almost 2,000 years ago, archaeologists still unearth mosaics intact.

“There’s nothing left of the buildings but the mosaics,” he said.

Joehle’s donation to the Old City Quarter came with one caveat – that the mural be installed somewhere that people could touch and feel the pieces.

“The more it’s used, the longer it lasts,” Joehle said. “It just becomes more beautiful in time from people touching it.”

He wants the opportunity to keep making his mosaic murals bigger.

“I want to make one 100 feet by 300 feet but I need a place to make it,” Joehle said. “That’s what I’m looking for – a really large commission.”

Bad Boys Mosaics is open 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday to Saturday. For more information, please visit www.badboysmosaics.com.

Thanks for your books from Russia!

Mon, 08 Sep 2008 18:15:59 GMT

Very nice message from a woman in Russia, I guess:

Dear Klaus and Roberta,

Let me express my sincere gratitude to you for this knowledge which I took from your books and which I am using now every single day and for these wonderful changes that suddenly appeared in my life. The most brilliant change is how I am feeling now.

This very warm feeling of happiness covered me when I begin to think about love and sending love.
This is what I have never ever experienced before.
I love this feeling and now can hardly imagine my life without it.

Your books ,Klaus, is the best what I have read in my life.
One of them is always in my bag, always with me.

And thank you and Kostya so much that it was possible to publish them in Russian.
Otherwise I would never be able to read them properly. Such a literature is much better accepted in your own language.

Thank, thank you!

With all my love
Jelena

Picking up coins part 2

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 09:32:40 GMT

Kostya:

Klaus, thanks for the answer!

May I ask again:
When you walk around -- do you happen to see some coins laying on the ground?
Do you see a lot of coins (10 per day) or not a lot (1-2 per day)?
Maybe normally you don't see them at all?

When you see a coin -- you have to make a decision: either to pick it up or to let it lay there.
What is usually your decision?
Do you have a set decision for this case, or do you decide each time depending on other factors?

Klaus:

No i spend mi time looking for iders of things to make as in mosaics or water falls or tables for the shop.
That was the anser. my flow of money is coming from what i created. my shop.
Klaus

Kostya:

Got it. Thank you!

Picking up coins from the ground

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 13:12:33 GMT

Kostya:

Hi Klaus!
do you pick up coins from the street? I mean -- loose change that lays on soil or on pavement or on the floor?

Klaus Joehle:

no i spend mi time looking for iders of things to make as in mosaics or water falls or tables for the shop. I think money is something a person thinks abut when thay don't have enuf or think thay dont have enuf. its like air we never think abut it until we don't have enuf. We also associate every thing with money as in, a nice car we look at it and begin to think of money as in the cost. So all things seem to become an association of money rather just what thay are. Even art people associate it with money even tho the 2 have nothing in comen. That is why when we see a person driving a fancy car we asum he she is has a lot of money and its not abut the car but abut the money and the person. If a person dus not have enuf money and also is coneting thigs thay see with money then that will bring a lot of unhappiness to them. Looking at nice things will make them unhappy rather then happy.

the most time i find myself thinking abut money is when im paing bills, or when im pricing the things i make. But when i spend a lot of time thinking abut money then i would find money. That was the point of the 3.6 mil to think abut it so much that we stop resisting the things we really want and start receiving them.

Corrected version:

no, i spend my time looking for ideas of things to make -- as in mosaics or water falls or tables for the shop. I think money is something a person thinks about when they don't have enough or think they don't have enough. it's like air -- we never think about it until we don't have enough. We also associate everything with money as in: "a nice car -- we look at it and begin to think of money as in the cost". So all things seem to become an association of money rather just what they are. Even art -- people associate it with money even though the 2 have nothing in common. That is why when we see a person driving a fancy car we asume he/she has a lot of money and it's not about the car but about the money and the person. If a person does not have enough money and also is connecting things they see with money then that will bring a lot of unhappiness to them. Looking at nice things will make them unhappy rather then happy.

the most time i find myself thinking about money is when i'm paying bills, or when i'm pricing the things i make. But when i spend a lot of time thinking about money then i would find money.

To Love What You Are - a talk on the island

Thu, 29 May 2008 07:03:47 GMT

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.

Beginning of the conversation was this. Here is new messages:

Roberta Joehle to Louis Yagera:

Now that is great news! (About Louis friends liking Klaus Joehle books.)
Is your dream of living in Spain what you hoped for? how are you doing?

Klaus has been so busy with his shop "his dream" and loving every minute of it his stuff gets more beautiful all the time.
Write him if you like he will answer back if not right away soon after I am sure.

many greetings
and smiles
roberta

Louis Yagera to Roberta Joehle and Kostya:

Hi, my friend has ordered 3 more copies of the book, it is in high demand over here in Valencia. However, we have to order directly from the publisher. Large bookstores here don't have the book in stock.

I'm busy correcting French translation texts, may be, I submit something for Kostya to put online this week. I will see.

Greetings,
Louis

Kostya:

Louis, I love the fact that you are not shy to promote what you are doing among your friends! I was kind of shy for pretty long time. And now one of my good friends Akve (Alex Postnikov) is shy to promote the project and knowledge management software his company (he is a co-owner) is making -- CoMindWork. (Well, they call it Online tools for project management, collaboration and knowledge sharing.) So I'm helping him to promote it by blogging.

Beginning of the French translation online? Very good! Will look forward to it!

Today I saw that somebody revived a Wikipedia article about Klaus Joehle. Good!

Do you tell others your age?

Roberta to Kostya:

By the way you just had a birthday so I want to ask this question. Do you have any problem with people knowing your age, and do you find many others do as well. I have a friend "not the only one" that seems to really have a problem in this area to the point of anger when one finds out. I wrote her this below to try and help.

May I share one of my thoughts with you.

I think of age in a different way now mostly due to not knowing if I will get old, older or really old. I celebrate every year I reach, look in the mirror at myself and say "DANG YOU LOOK GOOD" and get better looking every year.

Someone I know and most others around me on the docks don't like birthdays and like you keep there age a secret I blurt mine out when they tease me and tell them I AM PROUD OF MY AGE and will continue to do so. I haven't always been like this but since I have it has made my life alot easier to look forward to, besides it also gives people nothing to tease me about because they have no fear of mine to work with.

just my thoughts

Kostya to Roberta:

I felt very young when I came to Moscow -- I look young and nobody knew my age.
Now my friends have found out, were surprized and now I begin to feel older -- it's like they project it on me.

Feeling younger felt pretty good.

Happy birthday, Kostya!

Klaus sends a message to Kostya

GREAT Christmas and a NEW YEAR full of LOVE, LAUGHTER and ABUNDANCE

I would like to send our warm and loving wishes to all our readers

Here is to a GREAT Christmas and a NEW YEAR full of LOVE, LAUGHTER and ABUNDANCE

We are grateful for all that Love has achieved over the past year within our own lives and those of the readers, abundance is not only money
but the big and little things that grace our lives such as LOVE, FRIENDS, FAMILY, GOOD HEALTH.

I myself "Roberta" get love from things such as the small dragonfly that may cross my path, or the eagle that soars within my sights while sitting in the hot tub and the glint in my husbands eyes when he has an idea. My lesson this past year was to not only focus and see the large events but really be aware of what we think to be small events within our life's these have carried many messages for me when I have noticed and listened.

To you we send our Love and Smiles of MUCH gratitude for what you "the Readers" have given not only us but yourselves and the world surrounding you "LOVE"

Roberta and Klaus Joehle
