Exploring Life, Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , ,

JANU:    Your request is exploring, perceiving, understanding the Truth of Life. This subject includes layers of reality and their influences on each other. It includes life in motion, ever-changing and evolving, with countless currents. The reality of the perceiver can taint everything. So, to most, the Truth of Life has many faces. Which do you choose? Which do you prefer? Which are you willing to embrace?

Everyone has preferences, biases, circumstances. What is a truthful, clear, and precise observation? It is understanding not colored in any way. Embracing an observation reveals much, depending upon the observer. So how does one develop, mature, refine, and evolve the ability to see truth but by embracing, working with, becoming more familiar with the abilities of the True Nature, which is evolving as well.

The desire to know is the starting point. The patience to experience and understand takes commitment and renewal. The love and respect for life itself, no matter its expression, makes one a partner with the Truth. In large measure, one becomes an expression of the Truth of Life. The desire is continuous. Every moment is engagement. Every opportunity is a challenge. Namaste.

The nature of wisdom

Comments Off on The nature of wisdom

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

JANU:   Enormous strides are achieved through application of wisdom. That wisdom evolves with the rest of life. Experimentation through experience brings understanding that supports wisdom. What is wisdom, then, when considered as a guide for embracing life and its potential?

Wisdom supports outcome, the nature of which is the result of choices. Wisdom is knowing a measure of how creation works, how change works, how evolution works, how life moves. Wisdom brings decision to be made. It can be challenging, depending upon preferences. And wisdom can examine these as well. Clarity of thought and perception can be an illusion with a lack of wisdom. The nature of what is being considered pattern-matches with the applicable wisdom to be employed. Wisdom has narrative, not just prior to decision-making but during the engagement of life as potential unfolds. So, employ wisdom as a continuous reality.

Discernment is a byproduct of wisdom. They go hand in hand. So, how does one observe wisely? By opening to possibilities without preference. Perceiving life not only as it is but as it can be, in any direction, simultaneously. Wisdom gains clarity, as does observation, when listening and observing more than speaking. Profound listening on many levels is a worthy achievement, not just with the ears but with all that you are.

One can touch life directly with faculties beyond a current awareness. Allow these to reveal themselves as your life touches other life. Be conscious as more than you’re aware of. Be conscious as the Truth of Life, carefully and with guidance from within. Condemn nothing. Embrace the beauty of life and its eternal nature. The life that you are is in harmony with more of life than you know. Namaste.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

JANU:   What some call enormous responsibilities are quite simple in their nature. “To be” is to allow, become one with, to identify with a profound, basic, and elemental relationship of oneness. Awakening to the Larger Life occurs in this direction. The enrichment of life in this process is the realization of potential, not just your own, but of Life itself. We of the Brotherhood of Light, which we are, live these truths with simplicity, clarity, insight, and a growing wisdom. The invitation and opportunity has always existed. The love of life is an unending evolution of awakening. When observing others, see them as Life itself evolving. Freedom from identifying with limitation expands the consciousness and experience.

These truths, and more, exist as potential throughout life and each other. Be persistent. Continue. Every day, every moment is an opportunity and a challenge. They are gifts. Namaste.

Exploring Life, Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

JANU: Where is the passion, then, to awaken? The joy of discovery, the freedom of understanding, the love of service, the enrichment of life? Awakening is a natural process, available to everyone. “Awakening to what?” many may ask. The Truth of Life, of one’s existence, of relationships, each other and the rest of life.

Awakening brings peace through revelation. It brings harmony to all the systems of life. No longer contradicting each other, but working together in harmony, every one of them evolving. There are systems of life beyond the physical body. Awakening touches them as well. Life without this is like a dream state, full of confusion, contradictions, misrepresentations, misinterpretations. Life can be exhausting, instead of invigorating.

True power is life in motion, evolving. What is the connection, the coexistence of everything? What is the reality? Who are you? What are you? What can you be? Deciding to know is a step on the path of awakening, without preferences in the face of the Truth of Life.

Simple joys, if only for a moment, have far reaching effects. They are a wonderful foundation for awakening. Find them in your own life. Inspire them in others. Namaste.

Comments Off on Mastering change through awakening

Exploring Life, Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU:    The realization of the coexistence of challenges and evolution, the flow of life, opens the door to a deeper understanding of co-creation and these challenges to evolution. Awakening affords the opportunity to manage change, challenges, without waiting for the destructive hurdles that can ensue forcing change. So change in harmony with the flow of life is the key, through insight, understanding and acceptance.

The destructive side of challenges is cause and effect, from life patterns that have become fixed. Frequent inquiry into the need for change and the openness to understand it and embrace it is a more peaceful path in the flow of life. Learn the signs, the language of change: encouragements, the insights, and the desire. You are life in motion.

Challenge thoughts and desires of sameness, continuations of any one pattern in life. Become a conscious being in motion, not blindly but with insight and wisdom. Your True Nature is the doorway to achieve this. It is you. Awaken to the larger reality of being. Namaste.

The purpose of this sojourn

Comments Off on The purpose of this sojourn

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

JANU:   We are engaging the inquiry: Sojourns and their mission, their purpose, mainly this one.

The scope of possibilities reign supreme. Any one sojourn has a mission of realizing potential, not always a particular outcome but to evolve as a co-creator, to become more conscious, to embrace life. Now, embracing life is not limited to incarnation, but it is part of it and it coexists with the larger Life. Your True Nature has more than one evolutionary journey evolving.

So, when exploring a so-called mission for a sojourn, understand that it’s more than the benefit of humanity, but includes that. Allow the consciousness to expand; identify with more of Life. As your True Nature, own it, so to speak. The frustration will dissipate. Think not in terms of time, only, to evolve. Think more in terms of opportunities, both potentially and present.

The package of life, so to speak, contains more than you know. Be more conscious, in an inclusive way. Find peace in achievement. It is powerful. Harmonious existence clears confusion and apparent contradiction. See all of it as the evolution of Life. Namaste.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening, Inspiration

, , , , , ,

JANU:    There is a glow that is experienced within an individual when Truth is realized, True Nature is realized, true potential is realized, and that realization in others is observed. The glow is a response that harmonizes individual’s elements of life through consciousness, their hopes and dreams. Inspiring others and yourself in these ways enriches life. Enrichment can be many things, but it walks hand in hand with evolution, continuation, consciousness raising, oneness and its infinite diversity. So when we choose to inspire others and ourselves this is a beginning. Experience the glow and share it. Namaste.

Exploring Life, Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

JANU: A rich gamble, moving in this direction of helping humanity evolve into the Light. Life expressions are a gamble, in a sense. Realigning potential is not written in stone, so to speak. Fortunes of opportunity taken are part of the fluid or movement in an ocean. Revolutions are not permanent, as such. They are stepping stones on the path of potential realized. Life in the moment is the power behind past and future. Focusing the attention in The NOW is more universally revelatory of reality. The freedom illusion of the past and the future are mere shadows compared to the freedom of the Now, of the moment.

So let us explore the moment of reality when observing the past and the future. Namaste.

Bringing Light into the consciousness

Comments Off on Bringing Light into the consciousness

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

JANU:   Simple solutions in a complex society, as we observe the struggles of civilization. They find little peace in their struggles. Their designs of relationships are based upon control of others by means that do not bring harmony and benefit to all. The so-called leaders have yet to see the lasting power, that never takes but only gives, as a solution. They consume without replenishment. They seek advantage over others, yet there are those with strong desire to find love and give it. Physical survival is all important, as identity of only being human persists.

Bringing Light into the experience of consciousness of humanity is a living thing when it is rooted in universal love. Life cares for life with eternal patience, a growing wisdom, and a joy in every achievement. Allow your identity to expand with memory, insight, freedom, and True Peace, bringing life patterns into harmony and clarity. There is nothing to fear. Be at one with your True Nature and Life in motion, ever-changing, renewing. Namaste.

Elements of a blessing for humanity

Comments Off on Elements of a blessing for humanity

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening, Service

, , ,

JANU:    Assembling the elements of the request for blessing for humanity in the elections, one must assume responsibility for their own contribution. Giving life to these blessings is enhanced by the reality of one’s own concerns for wise outcome. Yet the elements of these blessings are the True Nature’s relationship to each one, each being, each person, for the True Natures are involved with the formation of these blessings. A gathering of the Masters of Life and their collective wisdom.

But one can sense a love for the future in present humanity. This is the true nature of a blessing, for love brings peaceful harmony, coexistence and coordination as well as awakening. Loving change into being inspires these qualities. The words are a beginning, but by no means the ultimate building blocks. A blessing that is real has real love as its source, which is in harmony with love in motion. So, hold humanity in the Light and see it shining in the Natures of each one. Namaste.
