-Because of the fear in the mind, the fear is tied in
to a belief in lack. When you believe you are lacking,
you believe in needs. You need things. It could be things
like food or a place to live, or getting love and affection
from someone. Or it could take a variety of forms.
The money becomes important in the ego's system.
Because the money seems to meet the needs.
Just like medicine can seem to help you when you're sick.
Money can seem to help you when you need things.
In this world when you are hungry, you eat.
The food seems to satisfy your hunger. And you don't
need the food until you're hungry again.
It's the same with money. When you need something
you use money to buy it. And you feel okay,
but then when you need something else,
you need to buy something else. So this is the comprimise
and the bargains of the world. And then we are raised
with this belief system. "How much does it cost?"
"What is the most inexpensive one that you have?"
"How can I save money?" Money becomes a source of life.
It seems you are sustained by money. And that is when you
are really asleep in this dream world. You want the
body to survive. You call that life. You want life
to continue, but yet no one knows what happens
when you die. What if it's all a game to keep you
in fear, to never question the fear. So how do you go
from having a sense of lack to having no feeling of lack.
You need a new purpose for money. So when you start
to feel afraid about the money, maybe thinking
"in the future I may not have enough money."
You say, "I have a savings right now, but I'm afraid
in the future I may not have it. You have to start
to honestly ask yourself, how would love spend money?
How would the love in my heart spend the money?
Because I will tell you, fear will spend it in a very
different way. Fear will spend the money
to keep you in fear. If you want to go to a yoga class,
or a meditation class, or spiritual talks and lectures,
or travel to meet very inspiring people, why not let love
spend the money for something that is helpful for you?
That is the first step in being free. Let the love
in your heart spend the money. Because you can not
pretend that you have no lacks. And you can not pretend
you have no needs. Yes the ego made them, but the spirit
has to help you carefully unwind from the ego.
So it was very brave of you to quit your job.
Fear comes up immediately. It says "what are you doing?
"You have to have more money." Even though it's the fear
of a future consequence. Already you are starting to follow
the love in your heart. Things that are important to you,
that you feel will help you, that's what you're putting your
support, and your value in. As we shared during
the first night, that Francis had all the things
of the world, the security-- what the world would say
is security and safety. Not only owning her own business,
being married, being married to a successful man,
and having not one house, two houses. Just for security.
And you know there are people that have many houses,
and many investments, people that are very successful
as the world judges it. They still feel stress.
They still feel fear. We should be able to learn from them,
that they are not so happy. Many of them commit suicide,
because they have a sadness in their heart.
Even the Beetles told us, "♫can't buy me love,
everybody tells me so. Can't buy me love, no no no, no!♫"
(laughter) -Very good! I like someone to collaborate
on my songs. (laughs) -[Voiceover] Annie Lennox has a
great song too, "Money Can't Buy It," do you know it?
-♫"Sweet dreams are made of these, who am I to disagree,
travel the world and the seven seas, everybody's looking
for something"♫ Mm-hm. It's all in the music!
We've been told about this. In our community if you took
a survey of everyone in our community, and you asked them
about money, you would get a lot of very wise answers.
They will tell you it's not about having money
or not having money. It's about who's spending the money.
Is it the fearful you spending the money?
Or the loving you spending the money. For example insurance.
The world says you should have life insurance.
But that's just a bet that you will die,
and you don't win the bet unless you die.
You have to die to win. Then there's health insurance.
You have to get sick to get the money. You win
when you're sick. You loose when you're healthy.
If you're healthy you keep paying and paying more money.
And you never get anything back. But if you get sick,
very sick, then you can get a lot back. This is the
crazy ego world, where nothing makes sense.
People get depressed trying to make sense of this world.
So when you quit your job, that was a leap of faith.
And now you're asking the Spirit to show you,
not how to protect or save the money, but let the love
spend the money. And let the Spirit bring to you what you
think you need. When you are serving love,
you are serving the Highest. Why wouldn't love take care
of you? If you serve a boss in this world,
the boss pays you. So why wouldn't love take care of you?
If you let love spend the money, all of your needs
will be met. This is what Jesus taught us.
Jesus was not a wealthy man. No where in the Bible
do you see him carrying a purse. He never says
to the apostles, "I'll pay for all of you."
He never paid for anything! Not once in the Bible
did Jesus pay for a meal. But he had so much love
to give everyone, and that was what was most important.
So I think you have skills. Let love use those skills.
While you seem to have a body, let love use the body.
There's obviously ways that love can use the body,
and you feel so good in your heart. But the body was not
made to compete. The body was not made for war.
Love would never use the body to kill. Fear will.
We just have to get clear in our purpose.
That's what you're doing by organizing this event.
You are offering a gift to your self and to everyone here.
You spent weeks planning this event, bringing us all the way
from the United States, drawing us over here to Budapest.
We're so grateful that you did that,
and we are so joined in this purpose.
