Awakening 50: Filling a growing emptiness

JANU:    What looms most in the minds of people is the nature of life, of existing at all, and, for many, when the body dies, what’s left? What is next, if anything? The journey behind the veil has been a long one. It has repatterned human consciousness into considering the reality of oblivion, for their world only includes what they can see with the senses, touch and smell, etc. Awakening, for these, is a distant and a vague possibility, not to be taken seriously. For tomorrow and the next day and the next day do come one after another, as the life they know, the reality, the world that fills their thoughts and experiences. Making this reality work for them, being so-called successful, is an all-consuming challenge, but its successes have an emptiness that require a return to the need to be successful, whatever that means, in the incarnate life. There is nothing wrong with this scenario. It is a common one, and has lasted for a long time. But the growing sense of emptiness and temporary satisfaction in so-called ‘success’ eventually leads to something more.

Now, the larger life, our brother, is more ongoing or eternal in nature. But the experience of it does not stand still. Life is evolving, whether incarnate or not. But the successes in awakening and journeying in a larger reality, more diverse, has a richness to it not found in most incarnate successes—or should we say, unenlightened ones. For how do they connect to anything more than an individual experience, when unaware of something more?

People continue with what they have again and again until something within them says, “I’m not as happy and at peace as I desire. These victories, so-called, have a growing emptiness, and I do not know how to change that. Manifest life does not seem to have these answers, and neither do those I associate with. Where do I begin, to change this?” Happiness is more than comfort, a ‘full belly’ so to speak, or material wealth. The journey into happiness is awakening to who you are beyond these things and the rest of life, associations with those who do know and are growing, finally understanding more and more the nature of incarnate life, why you chose it, why it exists, and its role in a larger truth. No longer a prisoner of any of it but being sovereign in all of your journeys, discoveries, achievements, and, yes, successes.

So fill the growing emptiness and awaken to a richer happiness and peace and success with your desires. You are already much more than you realize. Allow it to fill your consciousness, your heart, your mind, and any emptiness that physical life seems not to fill. Namaste, our brother.

Awakening 49: The reality of awakening

JANU: Some have considered awakening as entering into a state of bliss, free of concern, quiet peace, trouble-free existence. Awakening reveals many realities, whether physical or not, filled with relationships, endeavors to understand and develop. What some call ‘magic’ is more commonplace and a way of life to varying degrees. The challenges of the physical life in some ways have their counterpart in other realities. We would have you know the so-called limitations of physical life are challenges that are understood in so many different ways when awakening, and give way to a myriad of other concerns that can be common to many worlds and species of consciousness.

Life is full, our brother. There is bliss and there is peacefulness. There is love. There is service and understanding. But these are applied in so many different ways that boredom is not an issue. Being conscious through awakening while incarnate brings into question the wisdom of applying new knowledge and understanding in ways that are harmonious with the normal flow of life, which must be considered.

What we are saying here, our brother, is that awakening exceeds projections of reality by those unaware. Some might say the demands of life are too great to take on more challenges. And for those, our brother, may they find peace in their current circumstance. But for someone who is bedridden, meeting their needs fundamentally, has a world view of their life based on their circumstance. But moving into mobility, as the nature of life beyond their confines, is life changing. Their life is fuller, with different challenges and opportunities and associations and countless discoveries.

Awakening has rewards, responsibilities, capabilities. The decision is to be made, whether to continue as you have or become something more and see everything you have known in a new way. Light-heartedness, commitment, and engagement, confidence, courage, and changes. It is not a journey you take alone. Your True Nature is your anchor, your center, and who you are. Awakening is a larger life, our brother, and includes all you have known and more.

The focus this evening is to grow into the reality of awakening. What this includes is your choice, the choice of all that you are. Namaste, our brother.

Awakening 48: Momentums

JANU: We are pointing out that momentum plays a key role in awakening. The momentum of repetition in allowing an awakening experience. Momentum in the assimilation, application of insights. Momentum in the thrust of life being less impeded. Momentum in the nature of change. Momentum in the deepening and developing of faculties. Momentum in confidence and the revelation of truth in all you do. Momentum in the expansion of consciousness and engagements in what you become aware of. Momentum in the maintenance of health that the physical part of your experience remains adaptable and at peace. Momentum in your caring for others, their well being and their understanding. Momentum in the successes of your own life.

It is true, our brother, movement from the consciousness of competition to one of collaboration, mutual support, and sharing what you have with others, and accepting the gifts of their existence is a building experience. When you attune, go within, see the truth around you with regularity, and new experiences, your systems of life, of living, anticipate each encounter, each rejuvenation, each new experience. You become what you would call ‘pregnant with life,’ giving birth to creativity, changes, and opportunities for yourself and for others, giving new meaning to ‘being wealthy.’

So, build your momentums with patience, commitment, and a joy, as life gives birth again and again in your day. Namaste, our brother.

Awakening 47: Angels assisting awakening

JANU: We are assembling then that needed to provoke, if you will, a certain response in the consciousness, triggering the beginnings of awakening. By this we mean, a sensation or signal from within, an angel-like figure, if you will, that touches the mind and the heart and the spirit at the same time. It brings conviction there is life beyond what you have known. This experience is not to startle you but to welcome you.

We are not speaking of full awakening here, but the beginnings of it, to the degree that you are conscious of it. As we have said, this is a process. For some, the process has begun but still unaware, unconscious of it. This experience makes it more real. Your heart and your mind and your spirit consciously become one, nurtured by your True Nature, who you truly are. This call is unbeckoned but given when open to it. This is more real than any distractions of the day. Recognize it when it comes.

Similar experiences occur when thresholds of awakening ensue. When the heart and the spirit and the mind are aligned in this way, a moment of joy, peace, and acceptance of your life as OK occurs. In time, the fruits of this include seeing others in the same way.

Angels have served in this way, always. The relationship between them and your True Nature has always existed. Angels assist you because it is their nature to do so. Not for reward, but for fulfillment of their own being. They know your desire to be free, to love life, and to enrich it. Life takes care of you, our brother, and you are part of that life. Why wouldn’t it? Anticipate those moments of joy, happiness, and freedom. They will surely come. When they do, understand why they’re there. Namaste.

Awakening 46: Transitions

JANU:    Having once said that the decline of a civilization is a transition, one opportunity to another, such it is from one incarnation to another, one idea to another, from one philosophy to another, from the veil to awakening. See changes in life as ‘transitions.’ More understanding and acceptable than ‘endings and beginnings,’ for in transition, you see, reality is transformed not eliminated.

So embrace awakening, should you choose this path, as a transition into a larger life that retains everything useful. Some speak of leaving the body as a transition from one life to another. This is true but it is not the end of what you know, what you own. Life is full of transitions, movement, change. This keeps life fresh and new. Awakening is this kind of movement. Your sense of being makes the transition from limitation into freedom. Awakening is not the end of the journey, our brother, but a transition into a larger one.

When you evolve in consciousness to a clearer understanding of anything, that is a transition. Now, transitions, our brother, are processes and need to unfold in due order. Making the adjustment, or allowing it, we should say, is due process for what has been your foundation for understanding and engagement of life is changing. Be at peace with the process. Praise the gentleness of the natural flow of life. Learn from the process. Life is revealed through this. Much to experience, much to learn, much to enjoy, much to love. Thank you, our brother, and namaste.

Awakening 45: What is your role model for living?

JANU: We are peacefully responding to what emerges as a defining moment in the affairs of humanity. When considering the events of the last two days which have gained worldwide attention, meaning the so-called massacre in Orlando, Florida, pivotal in the sense of a composite of human consciousness, one can see there is a complex range of response and reaction playing out collectively. His anger, frustration and hate; fear of dying; pain and suffering; heroism; gratitude for survival; attempts to contain the enormity and depth of emotions and events. The point of view here that serves best is to see this as a collective human experience and what it says about the current state of human consciousness.

The elements of this situation are not unlike the reasons for conduct of war. What will it take, then, for humanity to engage with clarity and understand the reality of what has taken place? Life goes on, whether incarnate or not, but is it evolving? When there are those who see nothing but war for generations, where is their model for alternatives? They know nothing else, much less what they are capable of.

The reason for awakening, our brother, is to achieve a personal model for living and moving beyond these patterns of conflict and mayhem. And what is the source for this model of living but the truth within you. Learn of this. Explore this. Understand this. Make it your own. Awakening to the truth that you are, that lives within you, is the key to move beyond these cycles of violence.

Wars speak of victory, yet if there were victory, our brother, there would be no more wars. For what do they really resolve, other than temporary stays of execution and pain and suffering. The illusion of power traps many into these cycles. The incarnate life is but a moment. The life as the truth within you reveals cannot be taken away. Survival must take on new meaning. Apply this new meaning to your circumstance and your associations and your performance, as you walk through this life with a new champion that lives within you. This is powerful, our brother. Violence is not.

The theme here is “What is your role model for living?” Namaste, our brother.

Awakening 44: What happens to me?

JANU: Peace again, our brother, is part of the path to victory in awakening. One might ask, “When awakening, what becomes of me? Do I still exist?” Yes, our brother, but in a larger way.

Within the human experience, the consciousness can have several identifications: human being, philanthropist, engineer, designer, musician. Many identities but you are still you. When you awaken more fully, the identity expands to include much more. The identity has the capacity to interface with the human journey, but many other realities as well. What happens is that you become something more, our brother, more than you were aware of before, more possibilities. Nothing of the human identity is lost, you see, but understood more clearly. No longer limited to reacting to life experiences, but responding in a more complete way. You are still you, our brother, but you are more.

The me in ‘what happens to me?’ becomes a larger reality. The only thing that diminishes is ignorance. Your love for life and your own being expands, deepens, through understanding. In ignorance, these are only words. In awakening, they speak of a life that is more alive. It is stepping into the sunlight for the first time. Whatever your interests, you become more aware. More is revealed, not just of the life around you but the life within you. A growing freedom and presence. Being ‘born again,’ returning to all you have known. Physical experience is only one of many.

Allow your consciousness to adjust and settle into the experience. Patience is a challenge for many, but it serves you well and allows peacefulness. Functioning in this way while incarnate is a process. Balance is a good monitor of your progress, your pace of awakening. Namaste, our brother.

Awakening 43: True Peace

JANU: We are looking forward again to surmounting the challenge of awakening. But what a challenge it is, our brother, worthy of the effort to regain the freedom it brings. This journey employs more of the faculties of understanding and the power that brings. Being at peace helps restore the connection some might call ‘memory,’ but we call ‘presence of mind’ and ‘being.’

The frustrations humanity has set upon itself through their perceptions of time/space are not conducive to being at peace. The world of “it’s OK or it’s not OK” divides perception away from oneness. The reason so-called terrorism in Orlando, Florida, two days ago is viewed only as OK & not OK, a dichotomy, where in true peace the factors involved are understood that contribute to such events and the results of them. The rigid rules of right and wrong, with few gray areas of understanding, in the presence of awakening are no longer disturbing but understood, part of the life humanity has chosen for itself unawakened.

Very few involved see this event for what it truly is. The differences between people and their philosophies, social identities, hopes, angers, frustrations, passions, all play out and, in a sense, bounce off of each other. Everyone is part of life. Once again, awakening reveals so much and allows for resolution of so-called differences into the flow of life and the evolution of consciousness.

Awakening softens the intensity of different points of view, different understandings and preferences. The more you understand life, the less you rail against it. This is a measure of our suggestion to ‘be at peace.’ In peace, you understand more of all of life, all the elements, so-called differences, and how they combine into the flow of life, a life that is ever changing, evolving, restructuring, exploring, and creating.

Life is continually re-inventing itself, learning, growing, and evolving. Everyone, our brother, is part of this, in their own way, and even those ways are changing. Find peace in awakening and understand more of the life that you are and are part of and each other. Namaste, our brother.

Awakening 32: Freedom

JANU: We are encouraging then at this time the reason to be free. This speaks to awakening and the true lawlessness of life.

The purpose of natural and man-made laws is to organize experiences, expressions, manifestations that unfoldments and developments are understood. Make sense, if you will. But where do these come from, and why do they exist, and why do humans perceive life as only made of these? Maturity of consciousness through awakening can see beyond these, through these, into larger view of life that includes these, understanding their merit, the wisdom of their existence, the nature of their presence. Awakening is not a path to escape them but to own them, not be owned by them. For relationships to work between people, each must understand their relationships, making sense to them, with outcomes that are logical and sensible. Awakening reveals a deeper understanding of these, the layers of reality, the interactions, the currents of life.

Life is as a symphony, our brother, melodies within melodies. Each one is an instrument, orchestration, timing, interplay, with a growing common understanding of the melody of life. Not just for themselves, but others can enjoy as well, adding to their symphony.

And what of life beyond laws and rules and so-called order? Beingness without form or borders. What potential exists or can exist beyond these? Some think it is pure thought, but what’s the nature of the thought? Awakening to the truth of this allows one to be free to observe all creation, all rules and order from any perspective, with unobstructed understanding, and free to engage creation in any way. Not just one point but many simultaneously, in any progression or order desired. Great wisdom comes from this, and peace not found when limited to one truth to the exclusion of others. Find peace when in harmony with all of life. Namaste.

Open to that already known

These are questions received from an individual, responded to by Janu and the Brotherhood of Light, and presented here to provide a more personal connection to these journeys. The response given is directed to that particular individual, and is presented for research purposes only. All health concerns should be referred to a licensed healthcare professional

  1. Is the book HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY…by Tony Nadir essentially true/factual/objective–an expression of the reality captured in the Rig Veda and Vedic Literature? Should I study this book for its potential to aid me in my service to humanity?

Should I study this book to heal myself?

JANU: We have this one you speak of in our focus, in our attention. Her gifts in perception are of note, perception of understandings and the nature and order of manifest reality. Structure and purpose of same are her strengths and in time will serve others greatly, even more than her perceptions of their potential for serving her at this time.

She is one who has come this path before. A great teacher in the past on the inner planes. A record keeper and resource for the many from diverse background and origins. These Vedic principles and presentations, as presented in this book material, are for the most part of substantial authenticity and value in a certain way. This way then to be understood as adjunct from finite culture, philosophy and understanding to the larger, more universal soul awareness memory and record. Enhancements in understanding possessed on record within the being.

The solutions, as you might put them, for those concerns within the developments in the physical body and those perceptions in the main served best by the larger understanding inherent here. These Vedic presentations as reminders and stimulus for the larger understanding which embrace the moment with greater flexibility and adaptiveness to condition. This one wrestles greatly with these many teachings, with valiant and sometimes vain attempt to assimilate and combine into a coherent one. The one, dear friend, is already within you, already combined, already merged into the grander, larger, more universal reality, you see. These Vedic presentations are a wondrous collection of insight and understanding. A worthy study, but not the source of the solutions to your questions and concerns. They are adjunct. They add another perspective of understanding of that already gained in the soul of you that lives on.

These principles come, through seeming magnitude and overwhelming detail and depth, to urge you gently into this larger reality you already possess. The fascination with diverse view, principle, techniques and understanding is a corollary to a reflection of that already gained and possessed within the being. You already own it, dear one. Can you not see this as so? You have many companions here in spirit that would urge you and encourage you to realize your true position in the scheme of things, in the hierarchy of knowledge and consciousness.

Your station from this perspective is grander than your many pursuits in your world. You are as a journeyer, a voyager, an archaeologist, so to speak, uncovering life’s many adventures in pursuits and understanding. But your foundation, your base that you operate from, has been long established as broad in scope and depth. Quality understandings in your world are but a small portion of that already gained within the being. Your fact-finding activity is to gather another tidbit for your vast experience. These tidbits then do not hold for you the deeper, larger solutions you elude to through your questions. As you choose, research, study this material mentioned from the point of view of an archaeologist uncovering the journeys of others to add to a larger repository, you see. There have been lifetimes when you have been conscious of this reality and have explored, studied, analyzed with this larger perspective. Return once again, our dear friend, to this larger view.

The pressures, the discomforts, the struggles within the energy fields of the body speak of this lapse of connectedness. For their balance, their completeness, their harmony will return when you return. Their resolution is in the conscious embrace of that you already are and have achieved. They are parts of your experience, your being in this plane calling for the balance they need for their balanced expression. The memory is there, you see, for this conscious connectedness and through this the natural flow of consciousness through these aspects of imbalance. They are aware of the disconnectedness and encourage your awareness as well, through their signals of uneasiness.

The victories you envision in consciousness do not require, are not fulfilled, by these explorations in Earth cultures and philosophy. Your victories have already been achieved, dear one, and reside within the larger understanding of you.

These pursuits are research for you into the diversity of life. Your mission, your thrust, your pursuit is larger than you currently perceive. The larger you knows this, you see. That gained in these pursuits in this lifetime will still serve the purpose of the thrust for exploration of the larger you. You might enjoy them more, find more peace in these pursuits by including conscious connection and embracing of the larger you. The understanding coming now, instead of later when not incarnated.

Your fascination with this part of the past, Emily Dickenson, is because you are kindred spirits in the sense of your explorations through lifetimes, through worlds and focuses of understanding and pursuit by other groups of beings. You are fellow journeyers, you see. Your poetry a little different in form, that is all, and you know of each other on the inner.

You are well known in spirit and hold the respect of many over what you might call eons of time. You still operate in this way, even though in embodiment. The larger aspects of your being still active, still a resource for many.

We see here the records of many diverse cultures, understandings, philosophies from many worlds. These can be perceived by you and understood, not necessarily through the language or the modes of communication of those cultures but by the communication of spirit through direct understanding and awareness.

This path of yours in this lifetime is a natural course for you. It is your path and it is your plan. The one thing to make it a happier one, even more fulfilling, is connecting with the larger you consciously. You need only desire this be so and let this desire comfortably, gently, and easily permeate your emotions, your thoughts and your choices. We will hold this ideal for you as well. You act as watcher and overseer and record keeper of the flow of creation, its adventures and its journeys.

We are the Brotherhood of Light and are one with your purpose and your journey. Our Brother Janu speaks with us and for us in these many happy opportunities. Namaste.
