Comments Off on Understanding human and creature co-dependency

JANU: We are addressing this morning the need for surveillance on the outcroppings of life that pertain to the co-dependency of humanity and the creatures of the Earth. It is no accident that humanity coexists with these creatures, our brother, and is co-dependent with them. There is far reaching and diverse wisdom in the creatures of the Earth. Relatively few of humanity are aware of this. Witness the experimentation with Koko the gorilla. Humanity marvels at its apparent mastering of human words and behavior, little understanding that its world is far richer than what it has learned from a few humans yet to learn to communicate as effectively with its world and understanding. Humanity forgets at times that its physical body is an animal of the Earth, patterned after the creatures, the environment, and the reality of Earth consciousness, collective consciousness.

Both humanity and the creatures have had the opportunity to evolve beyond preying on each other to sustain life and gain dominance. Humanity could be a leader in this evolution. A few are, here and there. One might say that is the nature of the animal existence: to survive by mutual consumption. A short-sighted perception. Part of the catalyst for uncontrolled growth of populations is mutual consumption. Some might suggest that warring keeps the population balanced. It is the other way around, our brother. Warring continues to precipitate uncontrolled population expansion. Nature has a way of balancing things. Humanity may not enjoy the manner of this implementation but is part of the reason for it, with its slaughtering of each other, animals for food, clothing, and entertainment, seeing creatures as a resource for these behaviors. And what is the animal world to learn from humanity in this area but to overpopulate to survive. A dog-eat-dog relationship, we might say.

Now, there are individuals who love the creatures of the world and would not harm them. In fact, strive to aid them in their survival and well-being. And there are creatures who have befriended individual humans as a result of kindness and caring. Is it not time, our brother, to view the larger picture here? The love you give life is returned many times over. So be kind to someone and to a creature and witness the result. Does this not speak of a better life and future for humanity?

Service

forgiveness, service to life, tolerance

JANU: For this service, let us focus upon tolerance, an important ingredient in humanity’s future on the path to peace, understanding, and mutual support in the spirit of oneness. The art of tolerance is magical indeed, for so many of the systems of the individual’s composition line up with each other in a balanced way and perform wondrous things in themselves and in your neighbor. Very few humans can say they have experienced such to any memorable degree, or enough to inspire them to do the same.

Now, tolerance does not agree with mayhem and destructive behavior. But it does mean making every effort to understand and support another’s journey to find their own truth and fulfill their opportunities. Many have yet to realize how tolerant life has been for them to exist at all and continue on their path, no matter the behavior. So, it is a worthy endeavor to review your life and find tolerance that has been given to you and appreciate the opportunity it provides to move on in your life and to grow. The great one who visited with us this morning lived her life in that manner and gained much wisdom and insight into the nature of people’s lives, including her own. Of course, we are speaking of Maya Angelou.

So tolerance is the theme this evening, our brother, and this includes tolerance for your own life. And, of course, tolerance opens the door to forgiveness. Namaste.

Changing with the Earth changes (Service)

Changes, Service

consciousness expansion, Earth changes, service to life

JANU: Service then, this evening, is called for in the area of that which belongs to the Earth, Gaia if you will. The service this evening is in the nature of assisting and supporting the changes that are here, not to stop them but to support their integrity, their contribution to all that the Earth is. Everything about the Earth is changing in so many ways, and always has, our brother. But these changes run in cycles and these cycles can explain the changes.

Instead of perceiving changes as from one stable state to another, see them as a continuous movement of life, for the Earth is a very active world. Some movements humanity is aware of, understanding some of the cause. And other movements humanity is not aware of. Yet they are all connected, in a very dynamic world. Even the Earth will be destroyed by the Sun, eventually, for your sun is changing as well and always has.

Individually, human lifespan is very brief and tends to see ebbs and flows in the changes of the flow of life of the Earth as, at times, stable and quiet. And compared to human lifetimes, this is so. But humanity’s lifetime on this world is much longer and collective humanity would be wise to grasp the significance of a world that is living and changing as a destiny and will eventually move on to something else.

What we serve this evening is a large view for humanity to appreciate the world they live on, understand it, and adapt to it. The legacies of your lifetimes can contribute to the collective humanity’s consciousness and appreciation of changes in a larger way. Humanity is blessed with an opportunity to exist, enjoy life, and expand consciousness on a world very special, indeed. Be grateful for every day and an Earth that will support you for many generations to come. But it lives and it moves and it evolves always. So let your life live with its life and change with it.

Comments Off on Finding your truth by seeing it in another (Service)

Service

awakening, service to life, Truth of Life

JANU: We are serving then this evening as we may for the benefit of all who open to the inner Light. That is part of the benefit of awakening, our brother: to walk in the incarnate life perceiving and contributing to the Light within everything. Stating once more that ‘Light’ is the Truth of Life. Encouraging people that they are worthy of love, without doing anything for it. They were born with this worthiness, spiritually and physically. When the Light of the True Nature breaks through and touches the heart and mind this is realized. It is our service that each one recognize this for what it is, and are free to choose what it means for them. Humanity’s awakening presents itself every day, yet not understood. There are cycles of life that encourage and accommodate these experiences, which allows one to see the Truth in another. And the more this is exercised, the more one sees the Truth in themselves, for they see what they relate to, and they relate to what they have within them. Let there be a blessing of this nature for everyone open to it. So be it.

inspiration, legacies, Maya Angelou, power of love

Editor’s Note: Maya Angelou passed away on May 28, 2014. She was a remarkable person, who stood in her integrity and always spoke truth, from her heart. It was truly an honor to have her join our journeys. The reader is also encouraged to investigate the profound legacy of her own writings.

A Tribute

JANU: We are serving then this evening one who belongs to a larger destiny than one lifetime. The passing of Maya Angelou this day is of one who has served the awakening of humanity for thirteen sojourns. She brings with her an entourage of those she has benefited and those who have enlightened her. Her legacy will last long into the future for she will continue to serve humanity while out of the physical body. She will inspire many around the world into a larger understanding, each according to their capability. Collectively, she enhances life. She has channeled higher consciousness a good portion of her lifetime. Yes, she is known on other worlds, by a different name, of course. And her origins are not of the Earth. She leaves this life with a love for people and a wisdom not many will achieve, for now. We honor her on her journey. Namaste, our brother. May 28, 2014 B

A message from Maya Angelou

JANU: We have a request, our brother, from Maya Angelou, who wishes to speak at this time regarding the future of humanity. Let us welcome her with honors.

MAYA: I am Maya and you are correct. I do love life and people. My presence in the world was a blessing for me as well. It taught me many things but, in particular, the power of love as a foundation for understanding peace and the beauty of life. The inspirations you mentioned came from the people that I met, for their lives were an inspiration. And all lives are, when you have the capability of seeing them clearly. Once again, founded in love. That is the empathy of life and that I hoped to bring to the consciousness of humanity: a growing empathy for each other. For where is wisdom without it? Do not judge each other harshly. Let forgiveness be a ready tool or feature of your life.

We all sing as one on this side of life, brother, as you are learning. Thank you for the invitation to visit. May we do so again. I am with you and I am Maya and we are one.

Comments Off on The Nesters

Larger Family of Life, Service

co-creation, connection with life, service to life

JANU: I am Janu speaking, arranging then this morning for our journey that which belongs to a group of “nesters” that exist along the ridge of the Himalayas and have determined to embrace the Earth, the world, the collective of its being, as proactive service. From their point of view, in their connection with life, they see for themselves coming down the mountain and walking among people, and the conflicts of the day, as futile compared to their vantage point. Some would see as isolation, withdrawal. They see as proactive and effective.

These Nesters have a tradition that is unique for it is ancient in the sense of a continuing tradition, even though many have come and gone. Yes, they are incarnate, our brother, but they are not alone. They have gathered a view of life on many levels and have become a channel, a doorway, a window for the Great Ones not incarnate to serve the Earth. This is their calling, and this calling they have met. They are serene, indeed, and are a blessing to the Earth.

Their origins are by no means limited to that of the Earth. And they are oneness indeed. We honor them and support their service. Namaste.

Service

connection with life, service to life

JANU: The focus this evening is the refinement of and the enhancement of service. And we learn that service is a life response to itself, to help fulfill its destiny and its creations, to open the true power of peace for creative genius and natural healing, and the wisdom that comes from exploration. Service is not now and then, here and there. It is a continuous reality of countless forms and modalities. All of life is in service, our brother, whether aware of it or not. Intimate service from a foundation of oneness reveals that you cannot serve without being served, in one way or another. And what is service, then, but the enhancement of living and all that that includes?

Graceful service and living (Service)

Comments Off on Graceful service and living (Service)

Service

consciousness expansion, inspiration, Service

JANU: An aspect of service that one desires to be effective is the call to acknowledgement of the grace of life. What is grace, then, but life’s continual service to its creations and the grace of acceptance without condemnation or harsh judgment? Behind all service is a love for life, and that includes everyone, no matter their philosophy or predilections.

So, this evening’s theme is the grace in service, whether recipient or provider. Effective service includes grace. Being graceful is moving with the flow of life and its imperatives. The grace in service has the power to return consciousness to the fundamentals of life and those aspects of the nature that belong to everyone’s potential. The receiving and giving of love has so many realities that it cannot be captured in a few words, but the experience is unmistakable. Brings peace to the mind, loving acceptance of the self, and the true worth of your own nature.

When one says another is graceful, they are described as having a flowing, symmetrical, and harmonious movement, not just to their animations but to how they live and relate and perceive others. So let there be a reality of grace in everything you do for another. Let your life grow in gracefulness and inspire that in others, including all the kingdoms of life, all of them.

Comments Off on The power of gratitude (Service)

Service

awakening, consciousness expansion, inspiration, service to life

JANU: The flow of life into each being’s consciousness is enhanced by the energetic power of gratitude. It opens the heart, opens the mind, opens the charkas, and opens the channel of light through the charkas. Now, some will say, “What is there to be grateful for?” not understanding that gratitude is not caused by anything. It’s a choice, a determination by the individual to experience this and communicate with life more openly, letting go of any need to justify gratitude.

It allows for spontaneous love, and joy, happiness, and peace, and the rejuvenating properties of the flow of life. It removes conditions, restrictions, limiting the perceptions, and strengthens the so-called fiber of your being. It reduces anomalies in the balance of systems throughout your vehicles. It allows release from the obsession of memories, of self-condemnation and the condemnation of others. And it is true that, whatever state you are in, you attract similar states in others and in the patterns of life and energy that are everywhere.

A loving gratitude attracts to you similar patterns of life, and what better service this evening than to support these conditions for humanity? These revelations have a home and, more and more, the home is the hearts of humanity, supported by a loving consciousness. Let us serve in this way this evening, our brother. Be a grateful inspiration for those you meet. Namaste.

Comments Off on Wellness (Service)

Service

awakening; consciousness, connection with life, service to life

JANU: Reaching then into the opportunities of the moment, let us attune to the rich tapestry of life, of human history, and the activation of humanity’s memories of perfect health and the natural and easy maintenance of such.

Surrounding these memories is a cloud of forgetfulness, leaving humanity to resolve the issues of well-being externally rather than from within their own consciousness and history. Illness, our brother, is caused externally from not allowing a natural resource to maintain integrity. Humanity used to possess, consciously, command of individual personal integrity, and walked through life, so to speak, in wellness. Spontaneous well-being will seem to be the order of the day when this is allowed in the human experience, through the activation of these memories and the faculties they represent. The solution to the absence of well-being lies within, natural faculties forgotten and no longer allowed in the consciousness and the integrity.

So-called evidence not withstanding, the fundamental natural state of wellness is real and of longer standing than any illness, you see. When no longer seen as frail beings, subject to the whims of nature, sovereignty is realized. Life allows whatever you choose to create, but people are more used to being subject to illness than a history of well-being as a way of life.

This is our service, our brother, to activate these memories, to live once more in the consciousness and the perceptions of life of humanity. Be well, and namaste.
