“Ask Dr. Harry”
1-11-09
Dr. Harry Morgan Moses
Today’s title is ask Dr. Harry and I want to lay
the ground work for that idea and what happens in a spiritual
community particularly in a new age in a time when we are looking
not to a religiosity the word religion actually means to be bound
and what the idea of religions throughout time was that we would
learn to bind ourselves to the infinite and of course what has
unfolded is that binding was prescribed. How does one bind yourself
to the infinite and that was prescribed by the various religions
throughout time. And as we see there is a evolution even in
religious understanding because we started back in the Hindus’ and
they had many different Gods and then on the Western side there were
the Greeks and Romans who also had different Gods and it took a long
time before Abraham showed up in the field and we had one God and
then it was the Jewish temple that was defining how we bound
ourselves to that God and out of Judaism emerged Christianity and
out of that emerged the Muslim tradition and continue this idea that
it is a good idea to bind yourself to the infinite. As we find as we
have progressed as a civilizations is that science has revealed laws
and principals and what we discover in Science is that Science is
the revelation of laws and principals that already existed. That
electricity already existed long before Ben Franklin played with the
kite. The laws and principals have always been there it’s our
discovery of them and once we discover them we can use them.
Then Ernest Holmes the great metaphysician from the last century he
ask us this we all look forward to the day when science and religion
walk hand in hand from the visible into the invisible and in the
last hundred years the enfoldment of scientific principal has
brought us to a new level of understanding and the newest most
profound scientific theory on the table now is the theory of quantum
mechanics. Quantum means units smaller than the atom that is all the
word quantum means and so when we talk about quantum mechanics we
talk about how does the physical mechanisms of these units smaller
than an atom, how do they actually work? The simple discovery of
that is that the observer affects the experiment. That there is no
such thing as an objective observer because what we find is that
energy and matter are equal and interchangeable. We talked about
this last week that energy and matter are equal and interchangeable
yes and we have an agreement so what we know then that there is only
one thing happening and therefore there is no such thing as an
objective something happening in only one thing. Because you cannot
separate yourself from the one thing so that no matter what is
happening the observer is always affecting the outcome this is at
the level of the smallest movement of things. So what we now say is
that energy exists that consciousness acting upon energy causes it
to become matter. Let me say it again energy exists that
consciousness acting upon energy causes it to become matter. The
interesting thing is that this is now scientific fact and we have
demonstrated this in laboratories since Neil Bores and others in the
nineteenth forties began to develop this theory and now we know
inclusively that in fact the observer consciousness looking at it
affects the outcome which tells us that consciousness is a critical
factor in everything. Now everyone touch yourself and say I AM now
from that place you just announced your own being yes? So when you
announce being then you are a place in consciousness and we
understand that. You are a place in consciousness and you are
affecting the outcome of what is happening in your physical reality.
There are people to the left and to the right of you and are they
not also consciousness yes? Are they not also affecting reality so
what we find is that it is not about my will be done and you notice
the ancient prayer does not say my will be done it says thy will be
done meaning that the sum total of the quantum consciousness shall
impress itself upon the field and that is what will happen. And so
what we have really learned is that we do not really live in a
universe of cause and effect, we live in a universe of probability
which means I am setting causes in motion and those causes that I am
setting in motion will work out so long as the sum total in the
quantum field agrees with me. So we wonder how come some prayers get
answered and some prayers don’t get answered. The answer is not
because God loves one more than the other but because the
probability of those conditions are more likely than the
probabilities of another condition. Now the good news is we are the
consciousness in the mix and so what we do with our thoughts
feelings words and attitudes will affect what happens in our life.
And the more that you learn to live from a higher place in
consciousness which is about a walk of faith. Turn the fear to faith
and the problem will dissipate turn the fear to faith and whatever
the problem is will dissipate and what is this attitude of faith?
The attitude of faith is the capacity to align yourself with the I
AM that actually is. That which is birth less and deathless and
changeless and not subject to time and events. And you your actual
being when you just touch yourself and say I AM your actual being is
one with that eternal reality. That is not subject to events but is
rather the cause of the events, is rather the reason for the events
so it becomes a Hugh shift in our own consciousness when we discover
I am not the one having events done unto me I am the one co-creating
all of the events. I am the one co-creating all of the events that
are happening to me and once we begin to see that I am not the event
that I am the one co-creating the event then we can take our
authority and begin to create what we mean.
So the questions that we are asking today are not really about
asking Dr. Harry there about asking what is the principal that we
are using to move our lives to bring forth in our lives either more
of the good that we desire or changing from the circumstances that
we no longer desire. And many of us are involved in having created
circumstances that were not enjoying, that were not liking and we
are absolutely powerless to change those circumstances so long as we
believe they are being done unto us. As apposed to believing I am
the one co-creating these circumstances. One you have some capacity
to reframe your world and the other you are just plain the victim of
whatever it is that is happening. Now I don’t know about you but
over the last several months I have been watching the evening news
and if you are listening to the evening news you would turn white
with fear because according to the evening news were going from bad
to worse and we going to hell in a hand basket which is we are
creators of it and we are creating the hell and were just marching
right down the street to bring on more hell. Now the good news is
you don’t have to do that, you do not have to be victimized by life,
that is not the truth of who you are and the good news is you can
recreate your life according to your own imagination, according to
your own dreams and desires. You have the capacity to recreate your
life and what will happen when you decide to choose that is you will
begin to monitor what is happening in your life. Mary Baker Eddy the
founder of Christian Science had a great line she said stand porter
at the door of thought. Meaning a porter back in the days when we
had porters all around they would open the doors and close the door.
There were two things the porters would do of course let the people
who belonged in but what else did the porter do and that was keep
the people who did not belong out. So when we talk about stand
porter to the door of thought its means to begin to pay attention to
what you are doing with your own thinking process. And have you
noticed that your own thinking process can make you feel miserable
and your own thinking process can make you feel good? Have you
noticed that and have you notice that for example when you get to
some place in your life and some one asked the question so I will go
to number one. They said Dr. Harry you say dress up and show up,
what does that mean? Step one is in public you should probably have
clothes on and dress up and show up means all through out life
whether it’s this lifetime or any other lifetime you are always call
to do what is yours to do. This lifetime or any lifetime you are
always called to do what is yours to do and you cannot do more than
what is yours to do, have you noticed? There a many people who are
familiar with the serenity prayer, yes God grant me the serenity to
know the things that I can change and the things I cannot change and
the wisdom to know the difference. Because you can only do what is
your to do and so for example in your regular life if you are
dressing up and showing up meaning your job is to let the divine
which is that which is going to go on forever with or without your
cooperation that your job is to let the divine do its thing through
you, in you and in fact as you. That is yours to do but now in
physical reality if my responsibility is to deal with my bills in a
given day and you do not have enough income to manage the expenses,
can we imagine that this could happen in anybody’s life? So what is
yours to do and yours to do is to do only what you can and what you
cannot do you have to surrender back to the divine, not because you
did not dress up and show up but simple because you can only use
what you actually have. And so you can’t do anymore than that but we
can say you can do two things at that point. Let’s say you had ten
bills to pay and you were able to pay nine of them and the tenth one
which maybe is a big one you cannot get to because you don’t have
the funds for it. Now you have a choice right at that moment, you
can carry your anxiety about not being able to get to bill number
ten all day long, you can bother yourself with that, you can torment
yourself with that, you can ask the universe why is that, you can
lament about that, you can make yourself miserable about that or you
can say my beloved I have dressed up and shown up I have done all
that is mine to do you will have to take care of the rest. And the
moment you do that that you surrender that over to that authority,
which is the authority of your life because no body in this room
knows how to make the life force in you live, nobody knows how to do
that. The life force in you is living and if your dressing up and
showing up and doing your part that’s all the more you can do.
Do you remember when you were in school and you were very young that
the teacher says just do your best, do you remember and I have some
good news who ever that teacher was she was telling you the truth,
that’s what’s yours to do is to do your very best. And beyond having
given your very best there is nothing else for you to do except
leave the rest to God. Now what most people do is they do there part
and they don’t do the other part which is leave the rest to God,
give the authority where it should be. Turn it over to divine law
let divine law give you the ways the thoughts the inspirations the
connections the phone calls all the things that are yours are not
coming to you because if you are one of those souls who just does
your best and says that’s it and laments the rest of the day, what
do you think your creative juices are creating? If you lament all
day long what are your creative juices creating, more lamenting and
more opportunity for lamenting because you cannot separate yourself
from the fear. You are always creating something and if you have not
learned how to surrender to the presence, how to give back to the
presence because all you can do is dress up and show up and do what
is yours to do and there is nothing more you can do than that. And
if your doing that and thinking somehow your inadequate or not
worthy or not deserving or cannot receive, do you see that what your
creating is more inadequacy not worthy and not deserving and that’s
why in affirmative prayer as we teach here spiritual mind treatment
we have last step and you hear us always and you hear the people
praying in service with you you hear all the practitioners
constantly say and I release because I can only do the part that is
mine to do. The rest the divine will have to show up and it will let
me know when there is something else for me to do, is this making
sense? Now if you have found a strategy that is more effective than
dressing up and showing up and leaving the rest to God I invite you
to bring it forth. But that is how God designed it the universe is
working perfectly, the universe will work perfectly as you, your not
suppose to run the whole universe your only suppose to do your part.
So here is another question and here is what we should do in 09?
That you should find yourself surrounded by friends, laughter and
good times everyone say yes. Do you want your life surrounded by
friends laughter and good times then I just said you are the
co-creator center of your own life, do you see that? If you do not
get clear that what you want is to be surrounded by friends,
laughter and good times and that is what you mean by so fine your
going to get ABC’s news’s version of so fine. Which means that the
system operates by decision, let me say it again God’s eternal
system operates by decision and if you do not make a decision it
operates by default. And what it defaults to is the race’s idea of
what’s going on.
So here is something I said to our leadership team last week and I
said well people say well wait a minute do you mean to say is how do
we deal with the negative input of the world that is happening all
around us from the terrorist’s threats and to the mean things that
people say to the horrible things they say about the economy to what
they say about American cars.
So the American cars are not going down the drain because it is a
good product that they are making. What is going down the drain is
our trust that Americans can make good cars. And all we need to
restore it but you see the nation is loosing trust so if you do not
function by decision you will function by default. The lack of trust
will be what is happening in your world, oh my god but you mean god
loves us so much that we in this spiritual could actually be immune
to the recession in the world and I say yes that is actually what I
mean. Well why because god love you more than he love somebody else
no, no because gods love is equally distributed and god doesn’t love
anybody not even Jesus more than God loves you. God does not love
the Buddha, God does not love Jesus, nor any saint, sage mystic or
prophet, who ever came down the pike more than god loves you.
Because God’s love is omnipresent and its universal and it is
equally distributed but the difference is awareness. So here is how
it works, why is it that my good is going to come to me in the midst
of the world change? The answer is white light covers and surrounds
me and nothing but good can come to me. Say white light covers and
surrounds me and nothing but good can come to me, do you see that is
a decision and that is not a default to what is happening in the
world. Well wait a minute Harry that’s unfair what about all of the
suffering of humanity? White light covers and surrounds them and
nothing but good can come to them as soon as they become conscious
of it. As soon as they become conscious of it. Oh the difference is
“what” the difference is only and always only one thing inner
awareness. Awareness is the difference. How is it that were going to
make a decision in these days because if you have heard the report
that unemployment and this and that has not be so bad for eighteen
years and I am looking at some of us in this room and you have
already survived this once before thing and have you noticed that
you are still here? Have you noticed that along the way you have
made decision to prosper and grew or you made decision to suffer?
You got to do either one because we are free. So we have to begin to
recognize why are we so blessed because we know that we are blessed.
Isn’t everybody blessed yes, and what is the difference, and the
difference is they don’t know. Because you cannot be blessed the old
way the old way is to go into an old religiosity and trust that that
version of being bound is going to free you and if you don’t make
any change, nothing will change. You put no change in you will get
no change out. You say wait a minute I’m going to bind myself to the
infinite in a new way, not according to the rule book but in accord
to the inner mechanisms of spirit and how do I know how I’m using
the inner mechanisms of spirit and the answer is that we now know we
can use the mechanisms of the body the mechanisms of the self to
find out what is going on in the unconscious mind. The unconscious
mind is what is running your life, not your conscious mind. Your
conscious mind is what is going to reprogram anything that’s in your
unconscious mind but you can watch what happens when you use
individuality. So do you see that when we make choices that are
aligning ourselves with our I AM presence that white light covers me
is a statement of alignment. So you see when you’re aligning
yourself with the presence you get stronger. Do you see when you
participate with the race thoughts that you get weak so the inner
mechanisms which all of us have and this is why I want you to pay
attention. It is not hedonism, hedonism means I am going to find the
only value there is in pleasure. No it’s not hedonism it’s spiritual
principal. Spiritual principal says I’m going to steer my ship by
what feels good. If I use drugs or alcohol I feel good, no you don’t
you feel tired, you fee numb and that is not good. It is not bad if
that is what you’re seeking to do but if when you do that you make
yourself feel guilty and start feeding yourself bad thought, I would
say stop doing that. Because you are mixing up feeling good with
being drugged and they are not the same thing. Do tell me you can
not feel when the mechanism are turning in and turning out. If you
don’t want to feel them it’s because you’re not ready to be guided
by your own soul. You still want some other book outside of yourself
whether its the bible or old testament or new testament or whether
its some other scripture book and your trying to find some other
book to try to find your mechanisms, touch yourself and say I AM
that, the mechanisms are in you. So if you start steering your ship
by what makes you feel good you will start seeing new ideas and new
thoughts and new opportunities coming into your experience.
You start to look and I have dressed up and shown up and I’ve done
my part is there anything else I can do oh I could worry about it
some more. Do you see that worry is backwards prayer, its creating
what we don’t want? So you have to dress up, show up do what’s yours
to do and then at that point you are complete and there is only one
thing left to do and that’s start watching your consciousness and
start looking at whether you’re looking at the worlds decision or
you are making your own.
Did you know that during the depression more millionaires were made
than any other time in American history? There is nothing in the
outside world that is going to determine you’re good.
The main question is what do I do about my fear? That’s is really
the main question and whether the fear is given to me by the
television set or the radio or whether the fear is given to me by my
bills or whether the fear is given to by my since of aloneness or
wherever the fear is coming from. What do I do about my fear and the
answer is don’t participate in it. Will you be human and fall into
your fears even in the presence of trying to make a decision not to
do that and more likely than not you will but we are working on
gaining mastery but what is the most beautiful thing about watching
Ice skating spectacular? When you watch one of those artists and
they go to do a triple lux and they hit the ice and we go “oh” and
what do we count on in Olympic athletics that they are going to get
up again and they will have missed that round but they have another
change at another time. The same thing in your life when you decide
to wake up based in spiritual principal which is to wake up in
affirmation of the beautiful day. Which is wake up in affirmation to
the glory of your life today, to wake up and surrender the things
you cannot solve until the I AM presence itself and you consciously
do that work and then your work is to do one thing all day long and
that is to do everything that you can to feel good. That’s it. So
why isn’t a spiritual center that says we have a new way for you to
be bound? A new way for you to bind yourself with the infinite. Go
out and make yourself feel good. Is that opportunities for humanity
or what, now does that exist for all humanity or does that just
exist because we are so enlightened? So what is the difference the
awareness and how we are going to apply it do you see it? God’s laws
belong to everybody the god that is belongs to everybody. The glory
of God belongs to everybody and everybody will get to see it when
they choose to move in that direction. And the system works by
decision or default. And if you look around you now in the world you
will see a lot of humanity I mean the vast majority is functioning
by default. Not only are they functioning by default but they are
miscreating even as they do it. And you know something different;
you know that the presence of life is with and for you. You know
that all of life is conspiring for your greater good. You know that
all you have to do is get your blotted nothingness out of the way of
the divine circuit. Your blotted nothingness is all the thoughts of
fear limitation and doubt and wrong and I promise you God is in the
kingdom and all is well.
It is not God’s job to descend down to our level and fix thing. It
is our job to ascend up to God’s level and watch things get fixed.
Do you see it?
So the change that you are seeking in your life, how are things
going to be so fine in 09. Is you are going to remember that God and
God’s creation are one and everything in your life that looks like a
problem has a solution whether you see it yet or not. And you begin
to replace problems with the idea of solution. And you begin to
replace with challenges with the ideas of human ascension. You look
at the worlds problems and you know humanity is going to ascend, you
look at your problems and you claim I am ascending to a higher good
for the divine is with me and for me. And then if it comes out again
and it is not coming out right again who do you argue with? It is
between you and God hay God I made a decision this morning and its
not coming out. Hey God help me clarify, hey God did you hear me.
Now does God care what you call it, some of us call it the divine
some call it the I AM some call it God some of us called the
beloved, some of us call it Jesus, some of us call it Christ, some
of us call it the Nashama, God doesn’t care what you call it it only
cares that you call!
So this week don’t go why isn’t this working, what the matter with
the spiritual center, this week don’t operate by default, and
operate by decision.
It is not too late to create your intentions not resolutions,
intentions for the New Year. What do you mean by so fine in 09? And
what if the divine is right now with me making all things sublime.
What if my divine plan is a sublime plan? What if I’m a great gift
to humanity? What if my success brings a blessing to everybody? What
if my life fulfilled in love brings more love, what if my joy brings
greater joy, what if God has designed that I am the saint the sage
master and mystic of all times . What if that is the truth about me
for if God has done it anywhere, God has done it everywhere and God
will do it for the one who will claim God because the world and that
which is so fine in 09 does not happen automatically. In fact it
will not happen by default it will only happen by decision. And that
decision is to be made everyday until every fiber and every muscle
of our being says yes, “that’s what I’m talking about”.
So my friends the answers are here the principals you have
discovered, the doors are open and it is up to you to walk in the
doors, to absorb the information to embody it a different way
because you are making a new decision and it is not going to be a
cute phrase that is going to last for a few days or weeks but it is
going to be the way of your life. So fine in 09 because that is the
way God planned it and that’s the way God wants it and that is my
decision. And I invite you to think on these things to decide on
these things and in the decision let us explore the possibilities.
Namaste..................................
