New Journeys

Awakening is achieved with patience, love and peace

JANU: Be it known that we have a vested interest in the success of humanity in this endeavor. Awakening is a term we use to describe or identify expanding consciousness, becoming more aware of life, its realities, including each one’s own life. Awakening is a relative term indicating the direction of movement, no matter how small or large, of becoming more conscious, more aware, more sensitive to the changes in life, the cycles of life, the depth and scope of reality.

Humanity is awakening. We are not here to measure degrees of awakening or categorize them, just to inspire and encourage an expanding consciousness, resulting in a love for each other, service to each other, peace of mind while living life. The vested interest we mentioned has to do with fulfilling our potential and destiny as well as humanity’s. We have grown in consciousness through long service invested in humanity, and not just of the Earth, you see. We are not all knowing and at the end of any path of awakening. But the awakening of humanity is part of our path.

The wonder and beauty of this path is not fully described with words, you see. The mother’s love for her newborn, and patience and understanding as it grows and evolves and matures is not unlike this experience. You have spoken of our patience with humanity’s foibles, including your own. This is no burden, our brother, for we understand this service to life as we have benefited from it as well. Every step one takes in life is never done without the presence of care and nurturing. It just seems so at times. The message this morning is that your life is observed, nurtured, cared for, guided, in a loving way that empowers, respects your sovereignty, your integrity, your identity. And timeless patience is a natural part of this, our brother. And we are one in ways you are yet to become aware of.

Find peace in this understanding, the peace that has always been, a peace that is sanctuary for rejuvenation, well-being, as one is walking the path of life. Be at peace, our brother, and namaste.

Giving and Receiving  

JANU: With much of the world’s attention placed upon the Christmas season, there is much to be grateful for, especially each other. That’s the source of the miracles in life: each other. For what humanity can achieve in understanding, creativity, and the enrichment of life is more wondrous than you might imagine. Humanity’s potential and achievements are the promise of the future.

Let this be the season of enrichment through giving, transforming those who take into those who receive, and those who accumulate into those who give. The season then is that of giving and receiving. Allow your richness, your wealth, to be the voluntary giving to others. Giving and receiving is the key for they are the two sides of the same coin, and the coin does not exist without them. And the coin casts a golden light upon both. This is pure balance of the flow of life and is the secret to its continuing.

There are those who walk the Earth that live this path fully, and those yet to learn it, not recognizing the strength inherent in those who live this way. Their legacy, to each other and to life, will live forever. And life responds in kind. Humanity receives much from the Earth, a living reality. May humanity find balance with the Earth.

Living this way is a masterful life that lives in the flow and finds true freedom in so many ways, a fundamental understanding of the spirit of Christmas as part of every day. Namaste.

Humanity’s bond with the Earth

JANU: We are encouraging at this time a domain of peace for a restless world. There is a bond not understood by many between the peace of the Earth and the peace of humanity. Incarnating into a world has many levels of reality, and one is the bond between the world and those incarnating. There are many unspoken agreements between the two, and even beyond the two.

Understand this, our brother, that the bond cannot be broken, the commitments, the relationship while incarnate. This bond includes an opportunity to be responsible for the well-being of the world and the bodies incarnated into, for they are of that world. The interface between the spiritual being and the world is rich with connections that evolve both the being and the world and, as we have called them, the vehicles of expression. The development of this bond and its potential are directly related to the bonds of other worlds.

Yes, a world is an entity of its own nature, whether geologically active or not, for there is more to these worlds than physicality as there is more than physicality to the human experience. The Earth has intelligence and wisdom, experience far older than humanity, on many levels, including all of those who have visited Earth, invested in it, and benefited from it. It is well for humanity to grow in its awareness of its bond with the Earth, so let there be a growth in understanding and behavior in this area.

The bond between humanity and the Earth creates a signature of reality that can be observed and known. That is part of the human identity, you see, and there are many in the universe that can attune to that relationship and the implementation of that bond. There are those in the human family that take advantage of this. They serve it and are growing in their understanding. The creatures of the Earth have an instinctual relationship with this bond. It is part of their way of life. They cannot explain this, but they live it. Humanity would do well to observe the creatures of the Earth, attune to them, and get to know this bond, for they are a grand example, demonstration, of its reality, its presence, and the strength it offers.

Being in the Earth does not mean being of the Earth, but while here fulfill the relationship and prosper from it. Incarnate life has a unique opportunity to interface with the world. Be it known, our brother, and namaste.

The medium of life

JANU: For this morning’s journey, let us enjoy an adventure into the medium that life exists in. This medium is known only by the life it produces. So when one examines the life produced, what does one look for as a signature, as an indicator of the medium of life? Well, on the first level, it would appear as energy but formless, omnipresent, and eternal. A uniform nature, but that uniformity changes as one lowers into the octave of existence. It is a gradual modification of uniformity. So, at what stage in this modification of uniformity does one begin to grasp the reality of the medium of life? There is no one point, our brother, for the change is so gradual and in flux as life responds and reacts to its own creation. The beginning of understanding is to know that it exists and has purpose and function. We are approaching here what we call the ‘Body of Life’ that even all universes reside in and are sustained by. Their own physical existence has this relationship with the medium of life, and it plays a role in universal instantaneous communication and consciousness.

So you see, life is a continuous simultaneous reality of existence in potential, of the unmanifest and the manifest. And all of life has vitality of one kind or another. And the medium of life is not the end of the story, but a threshold of understanding belonging to the mind awakening to universal consciousness. Adventures of this nature serve the wisdom of having a growing, enlarging perspective of life that even your daily awareness and engagements and decisions benefit. And that these truths and realities are not some far-off, distant, unknowable reality, but co-exist with you at all times and are part of your nature and your connection with life is more complete than you know.

What is true and what is not?

JANU: We expand then upon the dilemma that faces so many: What is real and what is not? For so many choices depend upon this determination. There is an aspect of everyone that recognizes truth. Understand that even deception has its own truth, that it’s deception, in most cases planned and executed intentionally.

So, what is truth and what is not? Truth supports what you want to achieve. Now, one can deceive themselves into thinking they know what achievement is worth having. Some truths have a more limited path than others.

So what is true and what is not? We are directed back to, in our inquiry, the truth of your own nature and its objectivity. Truth is a harmonious relationship with the flow of life. And that flow of life lives within you. Recognizing flow is a worthy achievement.

Now there are those who walk their path in life with some harmony and some movement that is not harmonious, yet it is still their truth. You must learn to read the signature of life, and all of your faculties can contribute to your appraisal. Allow them to play their role and convey their finding, not to condemn or criticize what is being observed, just to understand it for what it is. And then choose what is true and what is not, and your choice is always subject to change. Choose wisely and namaste.

Reaching for the stars

JANU: We are Janu speaking, enamored of the opportunity to reach for the stars, as you put it. A worthy ambition for everyone to always reach peacefully and share the achievement with the rest of life, for service, you see, is not limited to each other. Service is unlimited. Our life is everywhere, and every when, and all connected.

Being all you can be is not a destination, an end goal, but a continuous life process. Investing in this manner in your existence brings untold riches in opportunity and consciousness and service to life. Reaching for the stars, then, is an unlimited yet immediate opportunity. Whatever you experience that you are capable of, there is more. Having a foundation of peace, more than frustration, anxiety, self-limiting thoughts and feelings serves you well. In a foundation of peace, the elements of life integrate harmoniously and that includes you.

How then does one reach for that which they are unaware of? By being open to and expecting more than you know. Faith, yes. Belief, yes. Loving life, yes. Integrity, yes. Peace, yes. Standing in your truth, yes. Being honest with yourself and others, yes. Giving what you can, yes. Listening to the truth of others with sensitivity and compassion, yes. Forgiving yourself and others, yes. Gratitude, yes.

This is not a weak way to live, our brother. It is a strong way to live. Open to change yet solid in what you know. Integrity filled with conviction, confidence, yet open to change. This is the future of humanity and even more. Believe in each other. Honor each other. Value each other. As do we. Namaste.

Moving beyond doubt and overcoming fears

Fear is a primary motivator for unawakened humanity. These two journeys address the means to move beyond these fears, and what lies beyond.

Overcoming fear for survival
Moving beyond doubt and fear

 

 

Overcoming fear for survival

JANU: We welcome this opportunity to cancel all doubts and fears as to the future of humanity. When we speak of humanity, we speak of the manifested being. The spirit, or souls if you prefer, live on but the human experience is a journey of great value to these, for they gain so much and evolve. Another cornerstone of confidence in this understanding is that humanity as such exists on other worlds as well. So, even if the Earth ended, humanity continues, so the spirits or souls if you will have ample opportunity to continue. The unawakened mind perceives only one basket to hold the treasure of existence; therefore the fear for survival.

Making the most of your existence is still wise, cherishing the moments, the relationships, the discoveries of your own nature and potentials. This fear tends to cause projections into the future of what will be; yet your power in those thoughts is in the moment. The moment is the source of the future. And even if humanity did not exist but it were beneficial, it would be created, our brother, as it was in the beginning. So what is there to fear, in terms of existence and survival, opportunity, and the joy of living?

As much as you find possible, live in the moment. Enrich it. Value it. Understand and explore it. There is the power of existence, the power to be, the power to manifest, and the power to live. Grow in your awareness of what living is, and what it can create. Be at peace, yet full of life. Namaste.

Moving beyond doubt and fear

JANU: What we bring into focus this morning represents the finale of lingering doubts as to the reality of subtler realms and subtler faculties of the individual.
Experience is a great teacher in everything. When one opens to possibilities that are uncommon, the teacher arrives and reveals the truth through experience. It is difficult to deny the truthfulness of direct experience. What is ‘normal’ and what is ‘common’ in the experiences of humanity is not the same thing, although both are in flux and the scales move towards the ‘normal.’ That journey has many rewards, not only the revelation of mysteries but the discovery that they are even there. Life becomes measurably more interesting, inspiring, and richer in securing the consciousness—and by this we mean the life and the heart of everything.

We are not suggesting here that doubt serves no purpose. It does, but as experience unfolds, the need for doubt changes into the desire to experience more through a greater degree of openness to possibilities. Life is a grand journey filled with unknowns becoming known, the challenge and opportunity to let go of the old and embrace the new. Now, we did not say dismiss the old, for it is the foundation of your discoveries, and completes your awareness, your consciousness.

Fear serves survival but it must be allowed to be replaced by discovery and understanding. Loving life opens the door to more of life. It was always thus and will be. Why not begin this very moment to open to new adventures, new understandings, and a richer relationship with life?
Be at peace on this journey, for you are loved and understood and valued. Namaste.

Introspection

JANU: We are encouraging then at this time the behavior of humanity towards introspection. Not for self-condemnation but for enlightenment. A growing self-respect, love of self, and understanding of their circumstance and their nature, a vision for each one of more that they can be. Introspection is a worthwhile activity for it reveals that which has been hidden by the ego as too painful to reveal. But it also inspires the inner power to do so, the inner genius to bring clarity, the inner strength to move on and let go of self-limiting and imprisoning emotions, attitudes, and memories. It changes the relationship with everything, allows more honesty and freedom to move about in consciousness and life and in creativity, and, in due course, reveals the power, the beauty, the wonder of relationships.

Seeing yourself in another, and seeing them in you, is a great trust builder and allows bonding, mutual respect and support. Look deep within each one and each one will find a treasure bringing richness to everything else. Introspection is welcomed, responded to, by the rest of your being, for it is there waiting to be discovered, implemented, and allowed to blossom in the Light.

This path brings clarity, honesty, focus and resolution of all inner conflicts and finds strength, genius, and capacities for wondrous experiences. Make time in the life for introspection, building a foundation for exploring life more fully and awakening. A simple message this morning, our brother, but a powerful one. Take a look within and be in awe of what you see. Namaste.

Confidence

JANU: We are encircling, if you will, the needs of humanity and settling upon self-confidence, confidence in each one’s ability to engage the present and the future and to successfully engage all memories.

Confidence comes from successful experience and an awareness of, and ownership of, your own nature. When one’s identity is limited to the incarnate life, then there is a lack of awareness of their True Nature, and power and genius beyond it. So what is encouraged here is a growing conscious relationship with who you are and what you’re capable of. You are capable of great generosity, compassion, moments of insight and genius, a warmth and glow that can lift others, patience, endurance, and tolerance, forgiveness, and love. As you apply these to any degree to your life, you will experience results that bring confidence to continue.

When in doubt as to outcome of choices, be confident that solutions are always present at the heart of every challenge and opportunity. Have the confidence to continue in every endeavor that you feel right about. Follow the guidance of your own conscience. You are never alone in any endeavor. Truth exists and walks with you. Namaste.

Understanding patience and living it

JANU: The theme here is patience. Not the patience that is meant by so many as ‘waiting’ but the patience to allow life to unfold, to flow with its motions, its changes; the patience to embrace and engage life’s creations in their own time, in their own way, in their own pattern; the patience to understand through assimilation of experience and the application of wisdom; the patience to ‘be’ as a foundation for the doing, the creating, the living of life; the patience to enjoy and marvel at the mysteries of life; the patience to encourage another for as long as necessary but with wisdom and care, to honor their freedom to be as they choose; the patience to know a truth as it unfolds and reveals itself, according to its nature; and the patience to love oneself regardless of choices and outcomes; the patience to sense, to feel if you will, the needs of others and creatures of the Earth, Nature, and your own desires and passions; the patience to see the truth of all of these, their origin, their path, and their destiny; the patience to master more and more of life; and the patience to give what you’ve gained, freely.

Patience and True Peace go hand in hand. So patience in its fullness is deeply involved and engaged with life and in harmony with it. Patience is more than just a word. It is a way of living, and a passion for life, whatever it may be. Patience is dynamic and enduring and a vehicle of love. Be patient, our brother, and enjoy every moment of life as it reveals itself. Namaste.
