- about her experiences with Bruno Groening and a disabled dog  

Fredy’s parents had a flat in Munich, in Southern Germany, which many people came to visit. At the time we lived in Upper Austria and on this occasion we went to the Munich apartment, knowing that Bruno would be coming, and that many people will come to see and hear him.

Aunty and I cooked a big pot of good, strong soup – there was a lot to do, and people were arriving early. I prepared the food, the room, the chairs, etc. for them to sit down, I also picked up some extra chairs from the neighbours. Fredy’s father worked at this time in the Consulate in Munich and he was there, too. I sent him and Aunty into the room to save our seats. Many invalids and sick people attended. An old lady called from downstairs: “Help me, please help me - I can’t walk up these steps, and my dog has asthma”.

Neither of them could walk upstairs, so I hurried downstairs, picked up the dog and helped the lady to come slowly up the stairs. The old lady was more concerned for the dog than herself. She had heard that Bruno Groening also heals animals. “I am OK - I only came for my dog” she said. I told her “That is fine”, and I managed to get her into last available seat. I had really been rushed, to get all the people upstairs, to deal with them, to sit them all down - and by this time Bruno was already standing in the room. There were two big rooms joined as one for the meeting. I asked him to wait for me as I wanted to tidy myself and do my hair, and he did so.
I went and took my apron off, brushed my hair, washed my hands and went into the sitting-room. I sat on the divan next to Fredy’s father, who made a space for me.

As Bruno began to speak, I felt all the tiredness from the day’s preparations leave me, and I felt very present in the moment. I ‘switched-off’ from everything else, and was sitting-up straight. “Thank you Bruno for waiting for me, so I didn’t miss anything”, I thought, and at that moment it all went away, the tiredness, the hurry, everything. I was just sitting there calmly, and then Bruno started to speak. He said: “There is a lady here with us, she has been working all day long, she has helped many people. But she has come in here, has given it all away, is calm and concentrated, has opened her hands and feet, like she was taught: and she is completely present, just here.“ Bruno commented on exactly how I felt, and noticed that I was fully concentrated in the moment and that I had released all tensions, “If only all people could achieve this...” Suddenly I felt like I was on cloud nine.

Later, the Community Hour meeting finished. The old lady went off downstairs and I thought about her - panting and breathless - when I had helped to bring her up. The little dog was now jumping down the stairs. I said to her, “How do you feel?” “Well,...Yes, I really feel very well. Mister Groening spoke so well and so clearly”. “And now you are healed”, I said to her. “When you came in here you could hardly walk, and also your dog is better, now”. “Oh indeed”, she said “I have had a healing”. At first she didn’t realise that her little dog was jumping down the stairs. I said, “I wish you a long and happy life with your charming little dog”. “Yes”, she said “The dog is very important to me”. She came for the dog and now both were healed. Such nice and beautiful experiences I had. Aren’t they tremendous? Thank you, Lisl.

Fredy Hosp:  
- About tuning-in to the healing energy  

I would like to tell you about the Divine Energy which Bruno Groening helps us access...so I will start at the beginning. We live on this earth not only in an atmosphere of gases, nor just an ionosphere - but also in a field or sphere of energy. Bruno Groening says that we, all of us, need to absorb more of this divine energy, and we can easily obtain this by “tuning-in” to receive it.

Human beings need the proper energy vibration and strength for their life, to maintain bodily health and harmony. This can be gained by the very simple practice that Bruno showed us: by sitting correctly and being prepared to receive the healing energy, and then asking with open hearts and hands – as I describe below.

Now I will tell you a little about experiences we have had being with Bruno Groening. When Bruno stood before his friends, he spoke to each individual about harmony with God. As he spoke, energy streamed from his whole body, from his mouth, from the words he spoke, from everywhere – sending energy, powerful energy to the friends. He described himself as a transformer of divine energy, delivering energy and power to each individual according to his needs. Groening asked the friends to sit-up straight, keeping away from the back of their chair with palms open on thighs, with legs uncrossed and their body relaxed.

His instructions on how to sit were precise; “Yes, whoever leans against the back of their chair is lazy”, said Bruno. Then he asked the friends to notice and feel what happens inside their bodies, as their energies are transformed. Nowadays things are a little different, because the transformer (Bruno) is no longer physically in front of us. Now we must become our own transformers, and Bruno Groening stated that the friends will be able to take-up this power - the divine energy - by their own efforts, when he is no longer with us here on earth. This remains true to this day, and we can tune-in for ourselves at any quiet place, and at any time, in this simple way. You sit correctly, as described, with open heart and hands, and in calmness request the healing energy to enter. You will then be able to feel the interesting sensations as healing energy moves within your body and brings rejuvenation to all parts, often entering through the hands, head and feet.

There will soon be a reprint of the book entitled “The Great Turnaround“, in which Bruno mentions that everyone will become able to heal himself. The original book “The Great Turnaround“ (‘Die Grosse Umkehr’, written by Dr. Kurt Trampler) tells of the great miracles that occurred in 1949 with the huge crowds that gathered around Bruno at the “Traberhof”, a large country property at Rosenheim, near Munich. I am able to offer copies of extracts from this book as I own a signed copy of the original. This is a keepsake from that time when I knew him. “Yes, my dear friends, we need to be free - and this is not so easy for us, as we need to be able to sense and feel within our bodies, inside, and to fully experience all of our inner sensations. We need to be calm and to honour God. We need to seek this power and energy”. Bruno says that we can also feel the power in a variety of other ways: e.g. by smelling a flower or seeing it as a clear bright light. The important thing is to be in harmony and to be calm. To be happy and confident, not sad or pessimistic, to ask and to trust in God. Bruno said, “Whoever does not honour God is not worthy of life”. We must strive to truly forgive ourselves, as well as those who harm us. Both God and Bruno Groening have taught us to do this. We can use the Lord’s Prayer to do this, and also we can discover the ways in which we may need to change.

We must learn to release, and completely separate from all evil  

We can’t expect others (other people that is) to change, as long as we hold firmly onto our difficulties and are not willing to release them. My friends – You know, I did not have an easy life, although people think, “Oh, he has always been well looked-after”... it was not always like that. I had hard experiences, sufferings that burdened me for a long, long time, and which made me sick. You also carry things inside you that you have not fully resolved. I have had the experience that Bruno Groening is right 100%, - and 1000 percent right - when he says that you must learn to release. As soon as we release these harmful feelings and all negative thoughts, then the other people in our lives are able to release those things. As soon as we forgive and forget, we allow all those bad things to leave us, and thereafter we must not give them any more attention. We should separate ourselves as far as possible from resentment about other people’s actions against us. “Tune-in” and take-up the divine power regularly, twice each day at least, for ten minutes or more. Remember - as long as we carry sadness, anger or fear inside, us we can’t properly take up the divine power. Bad thoughts interfere and cut us off from the Divine, from the good energy, from God. .

Bruno Groening gave as an example a battery. He said that a battery, as used in a car, needs a certain length of time to be recharged. When the battery is not charged, the engine simply will not work. In former times as now, we had battery radios. When the battery is empty you can’t receive any program properly, there might just be a slight noise. Bruno compared the human being to a rechargeable battery. If a person has no energy, or used up all his energy, depleting his body because he does not know anything about God, or if he does not believe in God, he is also similar to an empty battery. If his life-battery is lacking a certain basic vitality the human is cut-off from the divine power, he can no longer receive the divine energy at all. This is the reason, my dear friends, why we advise you to come to the Community Hour Meetings. The community is not just created to hear an uplifting or a good talk, the community is mainly to join together to charge up our own energy-field and to vibrate together in harmony. In this way the friends who don’t have any energy can take up from the strong local field enough energy to recharge themselves, and then they become able to receive the divine transmission fully and directly for themselves.

Bruno Groening went so far as to say: “Never miss a Community Hour - you will never get it back again”. Tough, isn’t it? But I know that he was right: As soon as you understand that a community hour is the time when we all join together to think only of the good, to pick up the good energy, you will realise that the main reason is not the lecture; not some theory nor someone’s talk - but the reason is for each one of us, ourselves. Everyone needs help, needs to be more in harmony with the Divine Energy. Therefore we should change our thinking, change our attitude. We shouldn’t think “Oh, yes, we’ll just go to this hour, we will just see what happens”. That wouldn’t be the right approach - that would be like the idea with a question mark attached! Thinking this way shows that we are already suspicious of the divine love. It is the divine love that we need. We need the connection to God for a happy and harmonious life. Bruno was very keen to remind his friends how important the daily connection to God is - that each hour, every second we should be in contact with the good, with God.

Now to continue with the analogy of a battery - you see, if a battery becomes really empty, it takes a while to recharge it. During the time that Bruno was still on earth, the charging devices weren’t as fast as they are today. It took 24 hours to get a car battery recharged to its full capacity. If the battery in a car is empty, the engine doesn’t move at all, the lights don’t work, all is dark. An empty, discharged human being is similar to an empty battery. He is sitting there, unhappy, despairing, apathetic. He doesn’t have enough energy.

Now if the battery is recharged and put in the car, everything functions perfectly, and the car reawakens with new vitality. Because of the recharged battery, you can start the car, you can drive, you can switch on the lights, the air conditioning - everything works properly. Now the battery is wonderfully powerful, but if somebody puts a screwdriver across those two battery terminals, creating a short-circuit – Flash-Bang! - sparks fly around like crazy, and very quickly that battery is discharged...

Transferring this to humans, what I will say now is no exaggeration. As soon as a man becomes angry – WHAM - the battery is discharged. If we are sad, the same thing happens, the good energy is gone. After a fit of rage, a person is as tired as with hard physical work, all their good energy has gone. All the effort we have made for harmony and good thoughts disappears. Bruno said “One negative spiritual eruption may destroy the work of one year”. So exacting is the spiritual law, which mankind really doesn’t know anything about. Bruno Groening said “I didn’t just come to heal the bodies of men, I came to show the human beings the right way, the way to live their life and the way to God”.

What Bruno Groening said about the body of Fredy Hosp
and his mission in life  

We should accept ourselves as immortal spirits who also have an earthy body. This true understanding should make us happy. Myself, I am slowed down by my disabled body. Why? Maybe I have previously been an impatient person. Now my body slows me down, but I can still work at my computer, and am able to write down all the spiritual teachings of Bruno Groening to bring them to the world in my books. Bruno said that God gave me this as “homework”. If I do this work, my body attains divine order and becomes well again. Everything that he said has proved true, up to now has been perfect truth, and so I will not doubt the last thing he said to me, but I must leave the healing time to God. The most important thing is that we should never burden our body with negative thoughts, nor dissatisfaction with the life given to us by God.

Bruno said to me: “Each body is a gift from God”. At this time I was in a very difficult bodily condition, and he said, “Even your body is a merciful gift from God”. Today I know why he said this, and I really want to advise the friends to make the best out of any situation. We should only advise and never force anybody to do anything. Each person has his free will and does the best in his own way for his own situation. I advise you, each morning, as soon as you awaken, to be happy and look forwards in joy and love to the coming day. LIFE is GOD, TIME is GOD, - and a MERCY it is, that we have a body to learn our lessons from our many life situations.

Why do we, as spirits, need a body?
We need the body to learn, through the effects and the impacts of our thoughts and feelings. Which type of energy do we receive - good or bad - from this or that thought? Who hasn’t pondered too long in a difficult situation, or mentally gone round in circles for instance, spending one or more nights at it, perhaps? And what happened? Weren’t you more weary than if you had been chopping wood all night? If we burden ourselves overmuch with stressful thoughts, our body may even get into disorder and develop psychosomatic diseases.

Cause and Effect  

A short example: I was born a normal healthy baby, but the midwife carelessly dropped me, and I hit the back of my head on the washbasin. One second of carelessness resulted in a life spent in a wheelchair. One could say that this moment of carelessness sealed my fate. But now I’ll tell you what Bruno Groening said: “Yes this was a careless act of the midwife, but she was also a tool, she was the tool that you got to set you spiritually free through this body, to be free in your mind. You never should condemn this woman.” Since Bruno said this to me, I have never condemned this woman. I have done as Bruno said; I have accepted my fate and made the best of it.

Life is a way with turnings  

Life can be compared with a winding street of forks and twists. When we arrive at a turn we must take the right way and we know instinctively which one this is. How can we achieve contact with God’s goodness and will? We should think about this. If we do something - if I make a decision and this decision is only for me personally, then this decision is made in the realm of karma, of cause and effect, - but if we decide to help other people to show them the way, we become a worker in the ‘vineyard of the Lord’ and this is very important. What I want to say about this: It is important that we choose to help others, to show them the way, not just find to it for ourselves. In this way we can each be a tool of God.

Bruno Groening said that everyone has their own ideas about God, and all are different. There are no two people who have the same idea about God. However, if someone says that God doesn’t exist, - well, this is also an idea of God, a negative idea! Throughout our life, our ideas can change, and so we may approach towards the divine pole or choose with our free will to separate from it.

Fredy Hosp: 
- Are we able to tune-in to help other people?  

This is an important and frequently-asked question about the healing energy.

Bruno Groening said to imagine a triangle. Power comes from ‘above’, from God. We can send a sign to God, or a message. We can be a relay station that passes the request onwards to God on behalf of the person seeking, or needing help.

If we ask for somebody else, we must not tune-in for hours - just send the message very briefly, like: “I request help for this person, for myself... for peace in the world”, etc. - and then leave it up to God. So in this way the help goes just where it is needed. We know that God is omnipotent, God is all-wise. Why must we ask then, when each human has free will? The energy-field of God exists like electricity exists, but we need a human who switches on the light. In the Bible it is written that when Sodom and Gomorra were in need, one man asked God for help and the answer was: If you find three people here who believe in the good, then the town will be saved. This example shows us we don’t need too many people to work as receivers or transmitters, only people who work for the good. The more people who are convinced in themselves about the good, obviously, the better it is.

This is why our work is so important. We must be convinced about the good. That’s all; God doesn’t want any more of us, said Bruno. We should be ready to receive the harmony and to keep it in our body, and to be sure in ourselves that all life is God and that we live to serve the world. We should look after God’s creation properly, but instead what have we done?

No one has the right to criticise the life of his neighbour  

Many critical people who expected a lot from life have already gone from the earth. All those people who believed that they would survive me have gone. Bruno said this was God’s will. No- one has the right to criticise or judge the life of his neighbour. To do so is to be guilty ourselves. God decides the moment for each of us to leave. As long as we keep learning we may be allowed to remain within our physical bodies. God calls us home when we stop learning. Bruno Groening demands that we develop strong nerves, as his message leaves no illusions about life. He said that all people have had an education, but most are left with only imaginary or theoretical learnings, which don’t help us much.

- About the coffee break with Bruno  

This is a wonderful true story. Fredy’s parents lived at this time in Munich and we only had a short way to go to Stephanskirchen (a village near Munich) where Bruno was staying. We were invited to come. At this time we didn’t have a car, the nice old auntie was still alive and so we trundled with the wheelchairs right through the whole of Munich. Lilo (later Fredy’s wife, also very handicapped and in a wheelchair) was packed up with all of our luggage. Fredy and the auntie went in front and we followed behind them to the railway station. We were packed into the luggage wagon, at the rear of the train. It was a gay and happy journey, though we were thrown around a lot on the bends, but I kept Fredy firmly held tight in his wheelchair. So we arrived safely in Stephanskirchen, left the train and were so gay and happy all the way. To meet again with our great and lovely friend Bruno Groening and hear his words just made us happy, thankful and gay. You can’t imagine our joy, and the pleasure that we felt to meet with him. The sun was shining as we arrived, as Fredy was brought into the house of Mrs. Bavay, who was still alive at this time, and who was so kind and friendly to us.

Bruno welcomed us and laughed and told us exactly what happened; he knew exactly how we had come to Stephanskirchen in the luggage wagon. We laughed together, and then he came into the room looking at me, carrying a tray with coffee and a doughnut. I was so very happy, many people were around and many other things were going on nearby. It was a wonderful feeling, we were all so happy, this happiness I can‘t describe. You can’t imagine how great it was when we were near to him, you had to experience it. You became a different person, everything fell away, you released everything.

No sorrows - only happiness and grace - were left inside you.

As we were sitting, Bruno, carrying this tray with coffee and a doughnut, was standing beside me and he said: “Eat” - I looked at him, astonished that he should bring me the tray and serve me: “Come on, eat!” he said, and so I picked a doughnut, took a bite and felt a little strange, in a way that I can’t describe. He looked at me and said: “Drink the coffee”, I drank a sip and again felt strange, he looked at me and I looked up to him and he laughed at me. I thought - “What’s going on? What is happening to me?” “Eat, - come on eat another piece of doughnut, chew and swallow”. I felt like I was ready to fly away. “Drink another sip, come on drink another sip.” I felt so full up, so very full up - in a way that I can’t describe either, just from this little bit of food and drink...

For years, since my childhood I had been reading in the Bible, the story about the wonderful increase of the loaves and fishes. I knew it by heart. The apostles asked Jesus how do we feed this many people with only these loaves of bread and a few fishes? I read it over and again, I loved it so much. At this moment I thought of this story, of Jesus Christ as he blessed the bread, and how all the people became satisfied and were no longer hungry. Suddenly I felt a bright and clear thought, “Oh, it seems as if this really happened ”... I looked at Bruno and he nodded his head. “Yes, this is how it happened”. He knew everything, our thoughts, things we have been thinking for years, he knew, he saw straight through people. It was so amazing...

Fredy Hosp: 
- The first meeting with Bruno Groening  

I remember my first meeting with Bruno Groening even though 51 years have now passed. I met Bruno Groening for the first time in May 1950. All throughout my life I have been severely handicapped. At this time the medical advice was that I had only two more years to live. Bruno Groening was my last hope. We had searched for him for about 6 months until my mother found out where he was staying. At this time it was very difficult to get to him, as many other people surrounded him with other business in mind.

At first they wanted money for us to see him. He knew nothing about this. I would like to tell you firmly, that Bruno had no idea about this, and didn’t profit from this money. At last we met Bruno Groening in a small restaurant in Kleis, near Rosenheim and he welcomed us into the salon. I was shocked when Bruno Groening ordered me to sit up, unsupported on the hard wooden bench, as I was spastic and couldn’t sit still easily. I was afraid of falling off, and my aunt was also afraid for me. But Bruno Groening said I would not fall, and then I became more relaxed and calm. Suddenly Bruno Groening came, sat in front of me and asked: “Would you like to help me?” - I was shocked, as it was me who needed the help: He said again ”Would you like to help me?” Politely, I said ‘YES’, without knowing what he really wanted from me.

Then he said “That is good, for if you help me, I may help you too.”

The words, “Will you help me?” are still in my ears”? They are the reason that I am here today. I am grateful that I have lived another 50 years and I feel well. I want to make the effort to spread Bruno Groenings’ understanding of what is in reality, a good attitude towards life. This is that we must live in harmony and trust, and believe that all the good we receive shall be accepted with grace and mercy, and that we will release all that is evil. We then become masters of our lives and are able to keep the connection with God constantly. At first we build the connection to God by living in harmony, controlling our thoughts, accepting only the positive thoughts, releasing and rejecting all others.

Then we use the divine power we receive for our bodily health. We must release any evil thoughts because they cause disharmony and disease. Blood vessels can become constricted and cramped where disharmony exists. Then the body is weakened by the poor circulation. For this reason we must remain in harmony and stay in control of our thoughts. Then we will have healing on all levels. We should see this as a natural teaching and not just the teaching of Bruno Groening. It is how we accept the good and contact God. It is also the way in which we become receptive to the divine power when we tune-in for it.

Lisl: 
- on trusting, belief and prayer  

I get up in the morning with the thought “Trust and believe, the divine power helps and heals” as Bruno taught me. I don’t just say this with my mouth, no - I do it with all my heart. If you do this, you are happy all day long. You look forward to your work, nothing is too heavy and people can’t bother you. You just feel devout and thankful for everything. You are grateful to still be alive. I pray that our Lord protects everyone who labours in the divine work, who has a true understanding.

What should you do at night, before you go to bed? Did Bruno give us any advice for the night-time? I always pray in the evening: “Now give all praise to God with your heart and mouth and hands, He who does great things for us and in all ways; who, since we were conceived and in our childhood has - countless times - provided the best, all the best for us”. Yes! that is how it is....

The Stream Song, from Erich Pelz  

The Beautiful Stream

1
Oh, have you not heard of the beautiful stream
That flows through our Father’s land?
Its’ waters gleam bright in the heavenly light
And ripple o’er golden sand...

2
Its’ fountains are deep and its waters are pure
and sweet to the weary soul,
It flows from the throne of our God alone,
Oh, come where its’ bright waves roll...

3
This beautiful stream is the river of life,
It flows for all nations free.
A balm for each wound in its’ waters is found
Oh tired one, it flows for thee!

Chorus:
Oh, come to this beautiful stream,
Come now to this beautiful stream.
Its’ waters so free are flowing for thee,

Oh, come to this beautiful stream...
