“THE NEW STANDARD”
Part Three
7-29-07
Dr. Harry Morgan Moses
I
have been involved in this teaching since 1976 and I have been a conscious
student in the teachings and I still seek to be a conscious student in other
words looking for new thoughts and we understand new thoughts create new
experiences; old thoughts bring you old experience. I always am looking to find
what’s true, what’s the edge as were in this new era what we begin to see as you
have heard me say before is something that you don’t hear very often from
platforms which is we say do not listen to the speaker, pay no attention to the
speaker. Now let me save myself a second when we say pay no attention to the
speaker what we mean is give no authority to the speaker because the authority
has to come from within yourself. The discerning of what is true, so my desire
for us as we are gathered in community is in fact that you would be very
attentive to what it is that we speak about, what it is that we pray about what
it is that we are working with, I would ask that you be very attentive, that you
would pay attention at the same time do not give any power to the speaker until
something within you says yes I can use that, yes this makes sense to me, yes
something within my soul resonates with these ideas. So this is the new era
because the third appearance is everybody touch themselves and say I AM, you see
it is not the third appearance it is the coming of the awakening of humanity but
not coming through a saint a sage a mystic or a prophet but coming through my
own I AM -ness through my own awareness of who and what I am and my heart
beginning to align with truths that change my world. Would it be alright with
you if your life got better, would it be alright with you if you let go of some
of the struggle? Would it be alright for you if on your tombstone it doesn’t
may he or she rest in peace and that will be the first rest that you had in
eighty five years. So were really talking about becoming into a consciousness
into an awareness of being fully alive and what we know about being fully alive
is paying attention, being awake, paying attention to my heart, paying attention
to my souls awareness is the pathway to that waking up. So we are interested in
waking up so they asked me in this panel do you have any questions and I said
let me tell you since 1976 I have been practicing, I have entered into a
spiritual practice, I have entered into a mind set, a way of looking at the
world and what I know is since 1976 all kinds of transformations have happened
unto me That I am constantly the line from the New Testament is be ye
transformed by the renewing of your mind, be ye transformed by the renewing of
your mind and what I say as a spiritual teacher is spiritual teachers cannot
transform you. That spiritual teachers can lead you to the place where you will
find some new thoughts and if you dwell on those new thoughts, and if you follow
those thoughts that are in tune with your heart those new thoughts will create
transformations within you and those transformations are being done unto you,
through you by God. Transformation is God’s business. Renewal is ours being
attentive and being willing to be renewed that is our business and through that
renewal transformation happens So they said what are your questions and I said
well since I know for sure in the last fifteen years I have transformed a lot, I
have been transformed a lot and I suspect among my friends and colleges that a
lot of you have been transformed a lot. So I need to gather with you, I need to
gather with you so I can see you so I can feel you so that I can experience you,
so I know what to ask because I don’t know where your transformations have
brought you, I only know where mine are bringing me and hence the reason for
commingling . Hence the reason for coming together in spiritual community
because transformations that happen to all of us whether your a minister or not
your great presence here indicate that you are seeking, looking, open, willing
something within you knows you are a spiritual being and that transformation is
continuing to happen unto you and the way of the new era, the way of the new
ethic, the way of the new age is that transformation is happening to us and
through us and it’s not coming through a saint, sage mystic or avatar it is
coming through you and me and it is coming through our awareness of our own
Christ nature of our own Buddha nature, of our own higher consciousness. And so
we look to see what does our own higher consciousness wanting us to become,
revealing to us, showing us and here’s where Walter Starcke is such an
interesting soul because Walter Starcke began this confirmation in his soul way
back before 1976 and has been a dedicated student and seeker and looker and
practitioner for many many years seventy years or so and we see what kind of
consciousness emerge. We ended up with this very simple, very joy filled man
who carries with him a consciousness that no doubt affected you this week
because we are not use to seeing what would the third appearance, what would an
awakened consciousness look like in the world and it may not look like anything
other than a charming little eighty seven year old man who can speak the truth.
You never know what form the truth is going to come to you in but it will come
in forms that you didn’t expect, in ways that you didn’t quite know it was going
to shift your awareness quite that way.
So here we are now in the third week of the series of the new standard and what
is the new standard, the new standard is how am I going to be in the new era?
Well people say when is the new era and some of you probably think or are
reading in the new age papers and you have probably heard about two thousand
twelve? See a lot of people are aware of two thousand twelve meaning that a lot
of the readers of the field of energy the subjective readers, meaning everybody
has a point of view, every physic you know has a point of view. There is no
such thing as an objective piece of information, there is no such thing as
anything objective anywhere in the cosmos because you ever heard that
expression being an objective observer, well how do you get that because who
ever looks at it objectively is looking through their subjective right?
Everybody looks through their own eyes and there is no such thing as a totally
objective observer of anything because the observer affects the outcome. So we
become the way through which were beginning to discern what is so. I must
discern for myself what is so because I am the one that must live with myself
for eternity. So the new standard is what the ways of being in the new
standard? I want some of you to know that they say the new time of the new era
is in two thousand twelve but I remember growing up in California that we were
suppose to fall in the ocean on some very specific days. So you see when we go
to predict actual times were probably not going to be one hundred percent
accurate But what we do know is all of these cultures have all pointed to
around this time and some are saying that the time is two thousand seven not two
thousand twelve Well I say if we can’t be that good at predicting it we may as
well figure out how we need to be in the new era as opposed to wonder when
exactly is the new era because what we know for sure is the old era is falling
behind. And what we see is all of the objectifications of the movement of power
the way we use to know power, objective power are not working right? We see
that in the white house, we see that in the world stage, we see this movement of
objective power is not moving because we are in a new era and the new era
requires a new standard, are we clear as what is the new standard?
So were looking as metaphysicians as people who know that we live in an
invisible universe that has an invisible side and a visible side. We don’t say
it’s not physical, we say yes physical is there but every physical reality has a
non physical component. Everything visible has an invisible side so we are
interested in then since we are in a new era how am I on the invisible side of
my life to be in the new era. So just to remind you quickly we talked about the
first two Sunday’s the recognition of the self and the four things in the self.
You need to love the self, you need to follow your own truth, and you need to
listen to your own truth and to follow it. Then you need to trust yourself,
trusting yourself. Now did you notice that your humanity gave up on itself a
little bit, your humanity says there is no new age, there is no new time, my
life is not working and it all sucks? And then we come into this other part of
ourselves that knows the truth of our nature, the other part that remembers that
love is the authority, the other part that knows the glory of God, the other
part that experiences the beauty of life, the other part that is thrilled to be
alive, so we have to decide The double thread what Walter talks about is do not
try to squish your humanity There is a part of me that feels weak and frail and
insecure and its ok it’s just my humanity doing its dance but there is another
part of me that knows I am the beloved of the most high that the universe takes
a special thrill in my existence and that I am here for a reason. So we simply
choose where we put our attention, we don’t squish our humanity, we just notice
it and what we don’t want to do is dwell over there all the time in our
smallness, we want to dwell in a higher nature as often as we can without
whacking ourselves every time we fall and stumble and forget who we are yes? We
are learning to be gentler with ourselves. First four things love the self,
follow the self, trust the self and allow the self to become abundant. Allow
the self to set into the divine provide that which is already provided for by
God and begin to connect and be in tune with that providence and watch how love
will point the way, how love will find a way. Then the second week we talked
about creation and the rules of creation and the rules of creation are first of
all be responsible for your creation, recognize that your related to everything
that happens to you, not necessarily you caused it but if its in your experience
your related to it and you as a causative agent have the capacity to change it.
Another way of saying that is we all have a story, have you noticed? We all
have a story and sometimes we forget were the ones writing the story, we get so
attached to what is happening in our story we forgot that we were the ones who
are writing the story so that we will learn and see and understand ourselves in
a new way. But why would you wait until the end of your life to see yourself as
the one writing the story and start seeing it now and if you’re writing yourself
into corners that you don’t like, why don’t you change the way you’re writing
the story. Let me change what happens to the main character in this story.
Everybody touch themselves and say I AM, I have some news for you that I AM is
the main character in your story. And so we begin to realize I am the alpha and
the omega, I am the one at the end experiencing the story but I am also the one
writing the story and why am I writing myself this way. Why am I creating
myself coming out as a human being suffering with a middle age crisis? We can
change but it takes that freeing ourselves to see that I am the one writing the
story, I am the one responsible for my creations, and I am the one now giving my
creations life and freedom. I am giving my creations room to create on my
behalf and then I am going to step further I’m giving everybody else’s creations
room to create. Not only am I a creative force, not only am I creating harmony
but my work is creating harmony and I allow my work to create good work and then
I know other people in this room who are doing good work and there work is
creating good work and I allow your work to do it’s good work. This is part of
how we do it in the new era. The next part of that is to recognize that there
is a part of you that knows the answer, part of you that knows and knows that it
knows. There is a part of you that knows and knows that it knows and that part
of you really is there because if you really go to your own life and go how are
you really going to be with the face of God at the end of your life. How are
you really going to be, you know I’m going to be ok. I might be finished with
some of the drama that I lived in but I’ll be ok but we can do that now? If I
could get finished with the drama by simply ending this story, I could be
finished with the drama by simply ending the story, by changing the story that I
am currently writing. And so now we get into today and today is about choosing
life.
Today is the four points around life. Four things that are essential to our
well being in the new era in life and here are these four things. The first one
of the four points in the new standard of being around life is to choose life.
To choose life in every moment and in every breathe, to choose life. Now when I
say choose life it means choose my life. Now what about when you fall into your
humanity and your humanity is having a bad day, so how do I choose life when I
don’t feel like life is good, life doesn’t feel so good, how are you today, oh I
am glad you asked because I’m waiting to tell my story. But are we realizing
that even if you’re choosing your humanity in a bad story at the moment that
you’re the one getting the experience of that story. That you’re choosing life
and saying I don’t like the way the story is right now but I am choosing the
fact that I get to be in this story. I am choosing that I am alive. I am
choosing the joy of my own existence. The Psalms said this is the day the lord
has made let us rejoice and be glad in it. But it now comes down to a
personal. This is the day the lord has given me the opportunity to perceive
life through my unique since of being. This is the day I get to experience life
as me and to choose your life. Now for those of you who have been following us
this last year you remember we talked a lot about the science of the vibrations
of consciousness. And what we are predicting and not by ourselves but
accurately so by reading trends what we are knowing is that the whole state of
health care over the next decade is going to change radically because we are
going to get an understanding of the vibrations of consciousness and how the
vibrations of consciousness literally affect your health. And so when we choose
life you are literally changing the composite structure of your whole energy
body and therefore your own physical body. When you choose life you are
strengthening your energy field and strengthening your own body, is this making
sense? So we always want to know in the new era whether I’m happy or whether
I’m sad is really not that important, I am just witnessing the happiness or sad
but what I am choosing is that I am the one having this experience and I am
grateful for the experience that I am having as me. How would you like God to
say your life is and I will say it in the first person, and God says to me how
was the experience of Harry Morgan Moses and I want to be able to say with my
full being what a ride right? That I was able to have this experience and I am
choosing life my life making sense? Second point in the new standard among life
and this is the message that the Buddha brought us so many years ago. I had to
go on a pilgrimage in 1999 to India spent three weeks in India to learn and to
understand the lesson that the Dalai Lama gave to us to learn and it took me
three weeks in India to figure out what he was talking about and it’s the
Buddhist heart what’s called the Buddhist heart and in Christianity it is called
the sacred heart but it’s the same idea that the capacity within each of us to
choose compassion. To have the Buddha says we have the capacity for infinite
compassion and so part of the new standard is to open that compassion and to
share that compassion everywhere. And so some say what do you mean share the
compassion for everything? Well where it starts it starts first of all with
yourself. Have you made any bad choices in your life? But can you see that if
you knew better, if you truly had known better you would have done better but
you didn’t know better and so you learned to do better along the way and so part
of the place to start with compassion is to start with ourselves. To have
compassion for every wrong choice we ever made. To have compassion for any mis-creations
that we ever created. Oh that’s not what I meant to create and I have
compassion for myself and I begin to open myself because Harry if he had known
better he would have done better so I have compassion for his not knowing and
for his mis-creation and everyone could say that in the first person if I’d
known better I’d of done better and I am knowing better now but I already
created this mess well that’s alright we can have compassion for the mess that
we are now changing the story of, but I can have compassion. Look the poor
innocent guy didn’t know what he was creating. Now how would that happen if I
could extend compassion to myself what would then happen with my compassion to
everybody else? Have you ever seen anybody makes waves that they didn’t mean
to make? So we recognize that that same thing within us that mis-created is the
same thing that somebody else is doing. They are making waves they don’t need
to create; they are creating pain they don’t need to create. I will pause for a
moment and maybe your eyes are not seeing it but I have witnessed it, I have
been around long enough to watch several presidents in their offices and to
watch that office take the toll on their bodies. If you look at our current
president you can see that he is just wiping himself out day by day and what can
you do its compassion. If he knew better he would do better and can we extend
ourselves. We don’t like the choices that are coming up in the field, nobody
likes the choices ending up with death and destruction, no body likes that But
can you see if he knew better he would do better. They don’t know the power
people are bonking their heads against power that wont work anymore because we
are in a new era and they don’t know so if we begin to extend ourselves
compassionately. Even to people who are making waves they don’t need to make
creating difficulties for themselves or learning to create I have compassion for
myself and I have compassion for all others, because if they knew better they
would do better. And if they knew as our friend Dr. Terry Whittaker said to me
so clearly in our walk up hills for two and one half hours she turned to me and
said don’t you get it Harry it’s all God’s will. It is all working out
perfectly and if the people who are creating pain for themselves knew what they
were doing, they wouldn’t do it and we can have compassion Have you noticed
that when you leave this sanctuary that everybody out in Los Angeles is not
necessarily awake? Have you noticed sometimes on the freeway they give you
those gesturers and it is not a greeting of Namaste? And all they are doing is
rushing home to have another vodka and watch more television why, why are you so
angry at people on your way home to numb yourself out? We can have compassion
and then all of a sudden we notice it starts to change in our world and so we
have compassion more for ourselves for our mis-creations and more for everybody
else and how much compassion do I have? An infinite supply and it works almost
like a gas gauge. Just when you think your going to run out of your ability and
the meter is getting all the way down to empty you extend your compassion one
more time and all of a sudden you notice my God the tank is full all over
again. We have an infinite capacity for compassion.
The new standard around life to choose life, new standard around life to choose
compassion, to have compassion for all people and all experiences. Smiling on
all people the homeless, the handicap, the crippled, the rich the powerful,
smiling on all for all life deserves your infinite compassion. The third part
about life is to accept the blessings of life, to accept the blessings of life.
That life is here for you that you created this story for you, you are living
this for you and you are what God is and all of it is for your growth and your
love and your expansion and your wisdom, all of it is for you. And so I have to
accept the blessings of life, another way of saying that is I have to accept the
empowerment of life. I have to let life empower me, allow the blessings to come
to me because we are getting blessings from the earth. Boy has it been
beautiful summers have you noticed, we are getting blessings from the earth, and
she is reminding us everyday about the beauty all around us. Sometimes a breeze
may hit your face at just the right time, it’s a blessing and sometimes some
friend will look you in the eyes and say a word or pause with you on the phone
and it isn’t anything that they said its that blessing of just wanted to hang
with you for just a few more seconds. That the blessings of life are coming to
us and through us all the time and part of the new standard is to accept the
blessing that every person you meet, every animal you encounter, all breeze that
comes to you, everything is a blessing of life and we will not notice it until
we start to open to it and accept the blessings of life. Even in the worse of
your struggles, even when you’re in your humanity. I will show you something,
so this is life it is a circle oneness is all there is, one life everything
emerges from this one but on this plane of existence it doesn’t look like this,
it looks like this. You all recognize that symbol it’s called infinity and it
looks like this and so the way in the world is that divinity the wholeness of
life the invisible side of life is empowering the human side of life, the
objective side of life. But when we are surfing over here in the human side of
life this is where all our humanity is. Oh my God I’m in love oh they left me,
Oh I am alone, oh my God I have wealth, oh my God I am broke. When we are over
here it looks like were all by ourselves struggling but were not because we go
to sleep and we go into our dream land and find those moments of meditation or
prayer or pleasure and we come into our divinity again and we feel whole and
then we come back over here to our humanity again and we go oh oh I lost sight.
But watch this you all saw it’s really this, and all were really seeking to do
is awakening spiritual beings is to wake up and see everything from the
perspective of wholeness. That way when we are over here surfing the Mobius
strip, that’s what that is called. When we are over here on this side of Mobius
strip in our humanity we are not fooled because we know it’s just a reflection
of our divinity and we have never left our divinity. Now what happens is most
people wait until they die until they see this and I say what are you waiting
for the new age is here now, see now from the place of wholeness, see it now as
it actually is, start living from the new standard. Start living in the era
the way it actually is, not the way that it has been. So we have three
standards so far in the self.
First standard of the self in life is to choose life, second standard is to have
compassion for everything in life, and third standard is to accept the blessings
of life. To allow life to empower you, to accept the blessing of the wholeness
of your existence, to accept it and to allow it to come to you. Because that’s
what empowerment is about, its about allowing and I’m going to put one hundred
dollars in the plate today, and why because I trust the blessings of life,
because I have come to this life that I might have life that I might have life
and have it more abundantly and I expect the universe to pour its blessings upon
me and if I want more money, I have to circulate more money. If I want more
love, I have got to circulate more love, If I want more joy I have to circulate
more joy, If I want more clarity, I have to have the practices that cause me to
be clearer. We begin to let the blessings of life multiply our good because we
are expecting the blessings of life and that’s part of the new standard. To
accept the blessing of life, to become willing to allow life God, spirit to
empower me, but I have to be attentive and I have to be ready in order to
receive the empowerment of life. So why do I have spiritual community because
it helps me to become attentive because it helps me stay in my practice, because
it reminds me of who I am and because of that I am more empowered to receive
the blessings of life, do you see it? That is how it is happening in the new
age because it is awakening as all of us, not anyone of us, as all of us.
Everybody touch themselves say I AM now that I AM that you just proclaimed,
there is no I am that is better or more powerful or more loved I AM in the
cosmos than yours. You are the place where it’s all happening and God is so
good that it’s each and all of us. That’s the blessings of life that we become
ready to receive. So four areas, choose life, choose your life, celebrate your
life even in the midst of your fears, choose your life say yes I’m getting this
experience and I’ll transform this experience and say yes to life. Say yes to
have compassion for yourself. Pour little Harry who saw it all who had it all
and got adulterated and lost his sight until he became mature again. I have
compassion for that whole journey, wow he saw it, he lost it, he found it again
and he found it in a new way ah yes compassion for every part of life.
Compassion for everybody who lost their way, who lost themselves, who didn’t
remember who they were who forgot who created the story they didn’t like or the
chapters or the paragraph of the book that caused them pain and suffering, have
compassion for you and for everyone else. Stretch your compassion and third
choose the blessings of life, accept the empowerment of life and here is the
fourth and final one for today. This is one that the master teacher made clear
to us thousands of years ago and we are still sometimes we forget that the
universe works by a principle and the principle is reciprocal action. The
principal is the law of “as”. It’s done unto you as you believe, it is done as
you forgive so shall you be forgiven, as you love, so shall you love, as you
enjoy so shall you be enjoyed. As there is a principal of reciprocal action
which is treat life the way you want life to treat you. And it’s been in the
field the whole way but now we put it together within the context of the whole
new standard of being. A whole new way of being and we remember at all times
this law of reciprocal action, this law of as. Where am I placing my “as”. And
as I place my awareness at a higher level of consciousness, at a higher level of
love, a higher good comes into my experience, as I choose to vibrate out at the
highest level of my being I am inviting life to vibrate out back at its highest
level of being.
So go ahead and look in somebody’s eyes and let your love overflow and I am
going to look at Glen’s eyes and as I honor Glen I’m going to honor each and all
of you because I’m going to allow the as, not to be just with Glen and me but to
be with us as a community. Look in somebody’s eyes and say I love you as you
are and see how much bigger your as can be. I can expand as in the new order of
being, in the new era I’m fully present to the law of reciprocal action. Always
knowing it’s coming back to me “as”.
Yesterday I was at a gas station and I had to admire him as he was loading ice
and he had six people waiting in line to purchase gas and he was loading up ice,
one bag at a time into this thing. And some of the people in front of me were
getting frustrated because they wanted to give him their money and get out of
there but I watched this guy and then he came back around and started taking
care of customers and they were all sort of mad at him because he was just
taking care of his job and when he got to me he said I’m sorry for keeping you
waiting and I said no problem you did a good job with your work and his whole
energy just changed because I started to look at what he was doing and I was
inpatient like everybody else but I started to look at what was “as” and if I
started to practice my impatience what would come back to be was more impatience
so no I decided no I just looked at this guy how deliberate he is with his ice
stacking. He is just taking care of his job and when I acknowledged him for
just taking care of his job his whole energy shifted with me and this guy who
was not being nice to all the customers when he got to leave he was being nice
why because of the law of “as”. Because as I was putting out that is what is
going to come back to me and in the new standard I am willing to live always
current, present with the law. I am going to love my life; I’m going to have
compassion for myself and everyone else. I’m going to live with the principals
of reciprocal action and I’m going to accept the empowerment of life. I’m going
to accept the blessings and the willingness of life to expand my good according
to my attentiveness and according to my readiness and therefore I’m going to
live in tune with my practices so that I am more attentive and more ready and
this is the pathway as we begin next week we move into the teaching and living
in the new standard.
You are all by right of consciousness and by means of your presence here today
you are light workers in the new era and light workers in the new era are asked
by on high to live in a new standard and I invite you to think on these things
and together let us explore the possibilities, Namaste.......................
