Comments Off on The nature of freedom

JANU: I am Janu speaking, ranging our interests this morning to include a look back at the momentum of life. This life unfolds regionally and locally. Life also unfolds universally. The universal reality of the unfolding of life, its movement, its becoming, is a useful barometer of local flows of life. Universally speaking, in the largest sense, even life has cycles of existence, but the Source of that life is beyond that, beyond cycles.

“Is the Source of Life ‘life’?” you ask. Yes, and no, conditionally, for the life you are beginning to understand has cycles of existence within it. Remembering that the Source of All Life and all life are one. Difficult for binary mind to grasp, but it must be considered and pondered and allowed to temper perceptions of reality. Life exists. The Source of Life is. The difference in understanding is profound.

And why would one consider this understanding relevant to their lives? A valid question. It is relevant, our brother, because you are exploring the source of your own life, and when doing so, one discovers the dynamics, the mechanisms, the realities of your own being. For, in a very real sense, because of the oneness, you are the Source of your own life. Most do not understand or appreciate their oneness with the so-called ‘Divine,’ the Creator. They are of the Creator, which accounts for co-creator.

Most consider their identity to be ‘humanity’ which is the source of their fears, you see. But when one is awakened to the reality of their True Nature, nothing can be lost or damaged or taken away, so where is the need for fear? The sovereign being is not identified with physicality, materiality, possessions, social consciousness. A sovereign being owns their identity and their relationships with manifest life, and is free to move with or away from such limitations, such identifications, for the sovereign being owns and knows who they are, and their true reality. Let this be, then, a realization for those who wish to know the nature of freedom.

The Temple of Forgiveness

Comments Off on The Temple of Forgiveness

Miscellaneous Journeys

JANU: This morning we speak of the Temple of Forgiveness, which lies within the being. And forgiveness of self and others is the same.

Forgiveness, then, is a reality the presence of which resides symbolically in the heart. It is understood by the mind, but its strength of manifestation is in emotion, whose foundation and source of being is Universal Love. The Temple of Forgiveness is in reference to a quality of being that one must worship in to gain its strength and clarity. When applied without conditions, the love at the root of forgiveness reveals understanding, which brings compassion.

Let there be, then, a movement in this direction, where this becomes a tradition, rather than a unique experiment and the Temple of Forgiveness flourishes and supports many to achieve their own. And as this spreads through humanity, a collective Temple of Forgiveness transforms human society and behavior into freedom to be, a Light, ultimately, to other worlds, for this is powerful reality and contagious.

Today’s focus, the Temple of Forgiveness, can be seen in many ways but the Light of Life blossoms in those who live this way. Forgiveness opens the doors of judgment, condemnation, criticism to let in the Light and reveal everything. Move forward with this, our brother, much to be revealed.

Comments Off on A new model for living into the future born of the present

Elements of Awakening, The NOW

JANU: You ask, “What continuously brings us hope for humanity?” And that, in part, is our experience with the victories of other worlds over darkness, confusion, ignorance, and brutality. Many have accomplished this victory and it is our passion and conviction that humanity will do so as well. There are many elements of this victory that currently exist in human society, seemingly isolated from the much-publicized brutality of the world. Many of these go unannounced, recognized, or acknowledged. Humanity’s bright future, bright potential is clearly seen by many of us. It is our effort to help humanity see these, as well.

There will be a time, our brother, when humanity on Earth exists without wars or famine, infant mortality, or disease for understanding will ensue as to the cause, the root causes, of these. And once understood, and the alternatives, humanity will make the choices needed and create their bright future. There are those in your world who understand these things and long for them as well, and the worlds humanity of the Earth are yet to meet have already achieved this and understand it. As humanity awakens, the awareness of the reality behind such behavior will bring about these changes.

The news media of your world focuses primarily on fear-based attitudes, observing the mayhem, pandering to the fears of the public for sensationalism to market their coverage. Humanity’s solutions are revealed from within and that path is described as ‘awakening to the truth of life.’ What could be more important for humanity, than to know the truth and see it grow with deep understanding as to their own nature and the nature of life around them? Humanity has chosen these dark experiences through ignorance and experimentation with the limits of outrageous behavior and thoughts and emotions and personal agendas.

What time is better than any other to awaken? Awakening offers, to every profession and interest and walk of life, the insight, the clarity, and the genius to excel, create, prosper, and lift others in the enlightened direction of their choice, for all benefit from this. Understand that when your neighbor is enriched, you are as well, for society is lifted, genius and creativity flower. And how can prosperity not come from this?

Comments Off on The moment of creation

Miscellaneous Journeys, Service

JANU: For this evening’s service, let us take note of the reality that life is erupting everywhere, like a volcano. Recycling old patterns and spewing forth new ones, new opportunities for life to blossom. Even the birth of a child is life erupting onto the scene. When the sun rises, light is erupting into the skies and shining on life, bringing life, sustaining it. Each day is a new day, not the same as the one before. Life is erupting everywhere, all the time. Even creative thought, new ideas, concepts, principles, are emerging, erupting into life, into manifestation. How can one not see that life is in motion? All of life.

What we serve this evening is the awareness that everyone’s life is erupting into being, so much so that one can expect it and never be disappointed. Life is filled with a constant flow of changing opportunities, spewing forth layer upon layer of these. Those who are only planning for the future miss the eruptions of the moment, and miss opportunities, and wonder why nothing seems to happen to them and their lives are stagnant and boring and without change.

We serve then with inspiration for humanity to see how rich the moment is, by being conscious of it. A building to be constructed began with the birth of an idea in a moment. The building is real, at that moment; the rest is process. Without that moment, there would be no building, not that one, anyway. Many would say the building is not real until it is built. It is real, our brother, from the moment of thought and desire. It is the same, our brother, with achieving health and well-being and joy and lightheartedness and genius. Namaste, our brother.

Oneness

Comments Off on Oneness

Elements of Awakening, Oneness

JANU: This morning’s journey marvels at the richness of life, even as we discover more and more of it. The focus for this morning’s journey has to do with the coexistence of each element of the diversity of life and the collective consciousness of life. How does one perceive one from the perspective of the other? It is an understanding of oneness, our brother. One made up of many. Such is the nature of the human existence—one made up with many. Even on an individual human basis, many elements of the richness of life, yet they are one.

Limited perception still sees the components of life with separate identifications, yet not their oneness. How can life be so diverse and, at the same time, a single reality? These two perceptions seem to fly in the face of the reality of each other. As long as the human mind continues to insist that an insect is an insect and not a tree, one will remain such in their consciousness, blind to the larger reality. Earth being seen as a consumable resource and not the life that it is, and the life that humanity is a part of. Even when observing a neighbor, humanity focuses on differences, seeming differences, and less on what they have in common and their True Natures. How then does humanity plan and prepare for engaging other worlds, other species, and other cultures with such a limited view? When one observes a pig in the farmyard, how does one feel connection and perceive that life as part of the Oneness in which they live?

This is the purpose of awakening, our brother, to be more aware, to see more of life, to expand understanding that all of life serves all of life. And we mean all of life. One might say, “For what do I have need of this?” as they continue with their daily routine, their jobs, their work if you will, and their relationships. When you bring pain and suffering to a part of life, do you think you are isolated from this, can go merrily on your way and ignore it? There is a price, our brother, for every moment of your life and the price includes living with the patterns you have created. And these patterns can be challenging as well as rewarding. Even the patterns of service and goodwill, you live with. Both patterns enrich your life in different ways, and it is your choice how you meet them. Realize, then, our brother, that all of these patterns are of your creating—all of them—and discover their gifts. Oneness is rich with patterns of creation and all of them are known. You speak of secrets and privacy and isolated identification. All of these are temporary illusions that endure to a degree by your choice.

Change is also a choice, our brother, even though it is a constant in life, for there is no life without it. Now, some choose to take no responsibility for the changes in life and ride the wave. Others have a vision for modification of change, to refine the life and enrich the opportunities that are presented.

So, yes, oneness is not stagnant, our brother. It evolves as well, for its elements are evolving and changing. One tends to define life by what it does, what it accomplishes, its creations. As those who have tried to define electricity do so by its behavior, its abilities, its results. So you ask, “If one understands all of the elements of life, is there still an unknown as to what life is?” Good question, our brother, for another time.

The adventure of humanity is just beginning

Comments Off on The adventure of humanity is just beginning

Larger Family of Life, Miscellaneous Journeys

JANU: Situationally speaking, then this morning, let us examine the constituency of those of humanity becoming ready for encounters with other worlds in a balanced and reasonable way. We are not referring here to those who would be called the ‘lunatic fringe’ so to speak, but those who are thoughtful, introspective, and looking forward to expanding human consciousness into the larger truth of life. They are going to encounter worlds not obsessed with religion, dogma, blind faith, rituals, and fear of contradiction or alternate views. These are ready to embrace life as it is, not bringing agendas to change anything, but to learn, grow, and welcome opportunities ready to meet them. These of humanity have been growing into this perception, this consciousness, for some time. For many of these have a history beyond this life from other worlds and they sense this within themselves, for in some ways it is a renewal with a fresh perspective, recognizing that new opportunities exist.

The struggle for change, new ways of living seem always challenged with those who are not prepared for this. But this group can deny this no longer and look forward to the evidence of embrace of this larger reality to help them speak for what they have known, when challenged by old ways from others. The movement of humanity in this direction is unmistakable and will bring many changes to society. The squabbles among nations will fade in the presence of this opportunity to maturity. There will be those that look for any opportunity, including these, for personal wealth and gain, power, prestige, and they will continue to miss the real opportunity. But they will become the minority in human culture, for these of other worlds are mature beyond this point of view, this pettiness, this limited thinking, and they recognize it for what it is. The greedy ones of humanity will find it difficult to manipulate other worlds, but they will struggle to find a way, for what other model to exist and prosper do they have?

Then there will be the entrepreneurs who have a vision of bringing the best of two worlds to the table, so to speak, and they will negotiate in good faith and realize that their true agendas are known on the other side of the table and the benefits to both parties are enormous. A mixed bag, if you will, but both worlds prosper and other worlds will join in. There, in time, will be those humans that will mingle with these others and the isolation will dissolve into a community. The journey of humanity in a very real way is just beginning.

Comments Off on The larger network of life

Larger Family of Life, Miscellaneous Journeys

JANU: I am Janu speaking, choosing then this morning to engage or embrace the future path of elevation of human consciousness into the larger network of life, finally embracing each other with a vision of human destiny that brings about validity to all that has transpired and to those who have served humanity and the Earth. This elevation will be inspired by humanity discovering and strengthening its own network of life as a collective reality, for this mirrors the nature of the larger network of life. That working then to be understood as first connectivity, and then connectivity with purpose. The purpose being the emergence of humanity from tribalism, which is a lower form, into a sense of mutual purpose and synergism of the intelligence and compassion of every individual into a cherished destiny, with purpose beyond any single definition, one that evolves and matures, full of discovering and rewarding adventure. Serving the needs of each other with connection as a resource. Individual dreams and aspirations supported by collective consciousness. No longer the perspective of you being completely alone. The coexistence of individual worth and achievement, coexisting with the evolution of all of humanity, and this framework echoing the larger life’s network and ever-maturing progression; the larger picture of life, its elements and dynamics, potential, becoming more of an integral part of the human view.

This journey we speak of for humanity will occur for it is a natural part of its existence and opens the doors to individual and collective realization. This is not a forced scenario of humanity but a natural evolution. Let there be, then, contribution to understanding and inspiring others who move in this direction as a result of their own inner callings to awaken.

Awakening

Comments Off on Awakening

Elements of Awakening

JANU: I am Janu speaking, researching today the element of life that prolongs interest in the development of the tools or skills of awakening.
What is awakening, then, but becoming more conscious of more of life? And that includes who you are and your journey of awakening, what you choose to include in it. Your awakening is, in a very real sense, life itself awakening, awakening to its nature, its capabilities, its potential, its diversity, and its existence. And it begs the question: What is existing? And what are we without it?
Now, awakening is an experience of inclusion, for nothing is lost in the process and everything is gained. We do not trade one awareness for another but expand awareness to include more. The benefit of this, at least in part, is that all you have experienced and come to understand has light shed upon it, light being the Truth of Life. Embracing more of life for what it is, not just what you want it to be. Seeing things the way they are, when less awakened, has a tendency to be seen as fixed, permanent, substantial, and locked into its existence. More awakening changes this to the realization that everything is in motion, changing, expanding, retracting, converting, transposing, and interconnecting. Influencing the rest of life and being influenced by the rest of life. Awakening is the revealer of everything.
One asks, “Why can’t awakening by instantaneous and complete?” Because the journey, our brother, of awakening carries its own wisdom and richness and the time, so to speak, to assimilate the nature and substance of it. When this occurs, one owns the experience and the depths of the experience continue to reveal themselves. Yes, life is a process, an unfoldment without end. To more fully partake of the opportunities of this process, one embraces awakening. Every part of existence in your experience benefits from growing awareness and understanding and intimacy with the process of life. Some refuse to address this directly, or so it would seem. But understand, our brother, that they are regulating their journey, their processing, to more fully experience their level of awareness. And this is right and proper, so to speak, for it is the prerogative of every sentient being to choose their path and, when they want it to change or accelerate, it will do so. For the opportunities will always be there.
Yes, there is life as you know it, or anticipate it, but there is life that you don’t know and seemingly unrelated to your path. So, when you ask of ‘Where would we be without life?’ one must be open to the reality that there are completely different natures of life of which your current experience is but one. You ask: “Does one nature of life have a relationship with any others?” And the answer is yes, our brother, but in a different way to this current understanding.
A bit abstract for this current process and path of awakening. So we continue as we have, to explore awakening and to what do we awaken, our brother, and the processing of the new awarenesses into the life. Worthy questions, worthy pursuits, and worthy outcomes. Namaste.

Questions to help awaken humanity

Comments Off on Questions to help awaken humanity

Elements of Awakening, Service

JANU: Service this evening, then, requires that one prepare for events to come dealing with the next event or threshold in human consciousness answering the question: “Who am I truly?” “What am I truly?” and the honesty and courage to accept it. Dealing with the realities of life successfully through the filters of misperceptions as to one’s true nature is certainly a challenge. Now, this question is not to be answered by another, but within the depths of your own consciousness.

Another question is: “What is the scope of your understanding as to the nature of love?” And even not being incarnated, the question is valid.

“How did life begin and how and when will it end?”

And “What is life?”

These questions are a catalyst for an evolution in consciousness and awakening. We ask these questions for the purpose of stimulating the consciousness of humanity, that it embrace the freeing of itself from limitation, having you give your clearest perspective to everything that concerns you.

“How clearly do you understand the communication from another?”

And “What is Truth, from your own perception and perspective?”

And “What do you truly know and own?”

These questions we offer to the consciousness of humanity on their journey into enlightenment and destiny. Thank you, our brother, and namaste.

The Communicators: The rewards of awakening

Comments Off on The Communicators: The rewards of awakening

Elements of Awakening, Larger Family of Life

THE COMMUNICATORS: Yes, we are the Communicators and we do so endeavoring to bring enlightenment through awakening, wherever we may. This path we encourage for others, we are on ourselves, and so, with some justification, we encourage others.

Communication concept embraces a natural element of awakening with mutual benefit. We encourage this, for this is a path of awakening, so to speak, for all of life. When humans awaken, it benefits their entire world, for the understandings they gain bring harmony and support to all of the life systems of your world, and the world as well. For life is everywhere and, collectively, enriches itself and blossoms into new realities, new creations, and depth.

Needless to say, awakening is a process with many different modalities, pathways, time frames, and elements of intimacy and connection with life. It is inspirational and rewarding to observe this process in many areas of life, for it has a beauty and a symmetry of its own. As one awakens and consciously embraces new capabilities and insights into being, your bodies benefit as well, in terms of balance, peace, rejuvenation, and evolution. For, yes, our brother, even your DNA, as you call it, is evolving. An intimate relationship with its potential helps ensure successful outcomes. Awakening in consciousness stimulates faculties of awareness and a connection with other worlds, other realities.

There are miracles to be experienced in your own environment, that are known about in other environments, that can be yours as well, once you know of them and embrace them. There are opportunities in every moment of your lives that have been missed due to a lack of awareness. Ideas for exploration and new ways of thinking and relating to life are everywhere. We would have you see this, each according to their own capacity to absorb and change. Change is the pathway to new life, not to be feared or avoided strictly because the outcome seems unknown.

Trust in life to lead you into the Light, if that is your desire and your intent is the Truth and to contribute to life in peace. One is hard-pressed to consider an argument that justifies not awakening, ignorance, and solitude. We have been as you are now and the difference leads you into the future, never to return into darkness. The love that is Life, that it is imbued with, becomes with you more consciously and you realize that this is who you are, this is your love as well that is finding freedom to be, in your life.
