Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

JANU:    We are exploring the Larger Life. How does one, then, conceptualize reality larger than one’s current perception? By choosing it to reveal itself in a natural way, in a loving way that is unrestricted. Loving life, one with the True Nature. Pure Being is revelatory, self-perpetuating, and in harmony with an evolving reality. Non-judgmental and a peace unlimited. Life is. Consciousness expands naturally, with a nurturing of desire and allowing, patience and understanding.

Focusing on limited parts of life is a choice, which is identification on only a small portion of life. When allowed to be flexible and exploring and expanding, awakening is enhanced. Perspective evolves with awakening. Love of Life takes on deeper meaning and appreciation. Listening to Life becomes more revealing, it would seem, than commenting. The incarnate experience in consciousness becomes much more. Namaste.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , ,

JANU:    The subject is universal consciousness. And what does this mean to be universally conscious no matter the focus or the dimension currently associated with? The question being “Is this possible? Is there wisdom in this?” The answer is NO for the unprepared, and YES for those who naturally desire. Yes, this exists with moments of crossover for those on the path of awakening, but sporadically. As awakening occurs, it is more and more by choice, from either direction. The challenge is identification with one reality or another. So let us explore the experience of universality in consciousness.

One element of this is simultaneous consciousness with more than one focus, bringing balance to the observation and understanding. Physical existence is similar to this though mostly unconsciously. Life is many systems with harmonious coexistence. Life is difficult to describe as a linear progression because of this, yet there is evolution.

Language is a small part of understanding and experience. Direct knowing better describes the alternative. We are one in this and always have been. Even when attempting to listen to the ‘inner voice,’ better to put one’s attention upon the inner consciousness, the inner being, the inner insights. Allowing awakening, embracing it, being it. The merging of time and timelessness, the coexistence of realities. The absence of fear replaced with the love of life. Confidence in what is and what will be, proved by what has been. Namaste.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU: ‘The awakening of humanity.’ What is this, then, but the process of life realizing its potential: consciousness in a sublime sense; realization of the Truth of Life on all levels; the systems of life, the reality, the relationships, the potential; exploring opportunities with abandon; the model of life expressions that evolve.

Evolution and de-evolution are references that are the checks and balances of creation. Freedom to choose either and experience the results, the wisdom of the timing of these, and their counterbalancing maturities. When so-called destruction occurs, what is destroyed but the forms of expression? When creativity occurs, life expands. The expansion and contraction of life are its breathing, the transformations of vitality.

Awakening reveals the differences and their function. Both are life, you see, and the elements of its unfoldment and their relationship. We are here not to condemn either but to understand and employ the freedom to choose. One honors life by allowing its beingness.

This is the nature of an explorer. Awakening reveals everything without judgement, but with love and understanding and a lot of allowing. Namaste.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

JANU: We are enumerating once more the potential of humanity, its relationships, and the needs of the moment. Supernatural seems to be the anticipated needs of humanity. Supernatural, then, meaning that beyond the consciousness of struggling humanity. Yes, all of life is connected. Awakening to the Larger Life is not limited to being conscious of discarnate beings and realities. It is being conscious of one’s own potential and the potential of others.

Participate in the creation of more harmonious relationships and their evolution for those who can see. Other worlds have achieved measures of this and continue to do so. Their consciousness, individually and collectively, becomes standards for others to achieve, and to inspire confidence in their achievement. Observing humanity in the light of the realization of such potential, one can see the underlying ingredients, elements just below the surface of human consciousness. The opportunity and challenge is to inspire conscious realization or understanding of this potential.

So, ideas presented inspirationally into the psyches of humanity, beginning with those on the verge of awakening, will spread by example to the consciousness of others. And humanity will awaken more and more, realizing what might be possible to turn the tide of disharmony. So, let us quicken these inspirations for those who can receive them to any degree. It is not our mission to identify these individuals. Natural occurrences will take place, for their True Natures have this capability.

So, the focus here is to inspire, one way or another, the freedom to know, to understand, and to embrace potential with the power of peace and a growing wisdom. Our focus will gain clarity and refinement as we proceed. Life itself will reveal what is needed as change takes place. Loving all of life invigorates these qualities to manifest. Let us proceed. Namaste.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , , ,

JANU: Summoning up the courage to explore in the face of the challenges of ignorance. Conscious connection with others still exploring the lesser path is a challenge in itself, for the natural urge to serve becomes challenged greatly when attempting to share understanding that has not been embraced yet by others. The tolerance is founded in appreciation of the reality of being on all levels and the freedom of each to choose the steps on their path and their timing. You will discover among them, including yourself, those who hunger for more clarity, who look for solutions and answers to questions, are not so different from your path. What they need is up to them and their own Nature. The timing and depth and scope is theirs. Your challenge is to be what you are more conscious of, even with those whose consciousness has advanced beyond yours.

Choose privacy on your journey, subject to inner promptings to share, and even then, what to share, when to share, and how to share. Beyond just being, walk these steps of awakening slowly, allowing yourself and others their timing, their diversity, their model for living. Allow others and yourself space and time, patience and Life’s loving guidance. Not everything revealed at once. That bypasses the wisdom of experience, that leads to confusion and intimacy not founded in love.

Be patient. Be understanding. And be all you can be. Live your life in this way, and Life will not waste you or those you wish to serve. Namaste.

Comments Off on Some benefits of awakening

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

JANU:   The benefits of awakening to the Larger Life, and the Light we call the Truth of Life, can be overwhelming, for it forecasts expansion of consciousness, depth of understanding, transcendent experience, and intimacy on a scale without end. The benefits keep giving as your perceived needs evolve, your understanding expands, and your faculty to embrace the larger truth deepens. Asking any question within and a wise response in many forms ensues, strengthened by wisdom, commitment, love, and intimate embrace that proves itself again and again. To understand and sense the needs of another, their confusions, their victories, their compassion for life, their integrity, and their nature is rewarding, to say the least, to both of you. It enriches the integrity of life expressions, creations, and their potentials.

Life is in motion constantly, often without understanding the path, the direction, and even the outcomes, endless repetition of life patterns without seeming resolution. Confusion opens the door to suffering, misinterpretation, denial of reality, and even hate and greed. Awakening brings clarity that grows in penetration and scope.

Awakening brings peace and symmetry and beauty to one’s evolution. The Light shines in every corner, revealing shadows for what they are. Light brings healing from confusion and unwise choices. The system of being is healthiest when all of that system lives harmoniously. It is the strongest then and continues to evolve. Awakening reveals the endless beauty of life itself, and its patterns of expression. Awakening inspires the realization of dreams, potential, passions, creativity, and generosity. Awakening stimulates confidence that there is a guiding force in life that embodies the virtues of being, of one’s value to life.

These are some of the benefits of awakening. There are many more. Namaste.

Allow the Larger Life to reveal itself

Comments Off on Allow the Larger Life to reveal itself

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU:   Exploring the coexistence of realities is similar to the reality of attuning the consciousness and the experience to a larger relationship with life. The perception that a reality, a dimension, is some distant thing perpetuates the perception of separation, of isolation from coexisting realities. These journeys are movement in the direction of conscious union with all of life, but some limitations remain in the longstanding perception of separation.

Allow, then, a reality to reveal itself to you. It’s in its nature to do so, but perceptions long held can block this, you see. Allow yourself to be conscious as all that you are. Not just human ego, personality, but including that as well. Conscious union is more than just the expansion of individuality, but becoming conscious as more and more of life.

Now the human consciousness can move in this direction, but it is a process, while conscious as a human, of adjustment. Getting used to, being comfortable with, feeling natural as the awakening proceeds. Not to shock the consciousness into awakening, but to merge in a healthy manner with more and more. The ‘we’ we speak of is all that you are, and as one becomes consciously united with the Larger Life, the ‘we’ expands to mean all beings.

Individuality coexists with union. The rest of life mutually enriching, surviving and thriving as a diversity of expression. Your so-called neighbor in a physical dimension you coexist with more apparent as the veil diminishes. No longer the need for privacy, for what is there to protect from? The more one becomes aware of reality, the more the reality of integrity becomes identified with, and the integrity of others as well.  This is true coexistence, and so it is with dimensions and other reality.

You speak of exploration. Life is unlimited exploration and is growing. Allow the truth of these perceptions to reveal themselves in their own way. Be more alive than you imagine. Namaste.

Comments Off on Being all you have gained

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , , ,

JANU: Incurring responsibility takes many forms. Many forms are needed for the needs are diverse and many. Service to life takes many forms as well and many are needed. One not greater than another, but different enough to fulfill the most needs. Your confusion in this area is due to awakening to the different forms of service and ability to respond.

What we see in this is the power and effectiveness of being. Not just words and ideas but presence, qualities, potential. Consciousness and vitality, the presence of Life, go hand in hand. Holding the need of another into the Light, the Truth of Life, is a subtle doorway of Light to be shined upon the need of another. Their consciousness, their desire to know, to be and understand, is their key to unlock opportunity, insight, and potential.

Do not underestimate the universal continuous presence of Life and its vitality. Being this is significant, reinforcing, bringing into clearer consciousness what has been gained. Build the stronger foundation for that yet to be gained in beingness. Embrace this with clarity that grows. Not just an idea, you see, or philosophy, but an actual presence, a part of life and its universality, its oneness, its connectedness with everything. Reinforce this foundation with this in mind, of becoming more fulfilled and fulfilling. Namaste.

Understanding and mastering the veil

Comments Off on Understanding and mastering the veil

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU:   The veil experience is two-fold. As a protocol for incarnation the True Nature agrees to, for purposes of a fulfillment of the human journey to wisdom through experience. Focusing the consciousness by way of identifying as a human born of the third dimension, even though much more is part of this reality than many are aware of. The veil is not the enemy of human consciousness. It is the guarantor of focused involvement. There is wisdom in this, even though a temporary reality. But while identified as ‘human being’ this does not occur generally. Being conscious of the reality of incarnation, which the veil provides, is not being conscious as. The veil is a state of consciousness.

Desire is a motivator for change and the mastership it provides. It begs the question: why does the True Nature agree to this experience? Because the larger understanding and the wisdom accumulated on that level pursues evolution for consciousness in all realities. And the human experience is rich in these. Now, there comes a time when, on the human journey, questions arise without apparent answers. So the human consciousness desires more and the True Nature hears the call. The fulfillment of the desire is a catalyst for resolution. The union of consciousness is a journey of wisdom as well, of ownership and mastery of the larger life of each one.

The veil is an arrangement, a contract, an agreement in the nature of consciousness. Understanding more deeply the human dimension eventually requires awakening to its nature as well. This path of discovery is subject to the timing, the readiness, the desires, the discoveries of each one. No two the same. Made more apparent by the nature of the questions being asked and the insights being discovered. This journey of awakening grows with each insight, each moment of new understanding that is embraced and incorporated into the perspective of each one.

This path of discovery is not linear or uneventful. But, as it begins, it becomes more difficult to ignore because it is fulfilling, liberating, enriching, and brings more peace to the pursuit of life. The human condition can make it seem illusive, impermanent, and unfulfillable, but that is a limited view. The Larger Life and a larger view are one. One grows into something more. Futility appears differently to the one awakening.

Some would ask, “Awakening to what?” Awakening to the nature of Life itself, and your own truth. Awakening to the harmony of the systems of life, even the dichotomies. Own the veil experience. Understand it. Master it. Take advantage of it. Awakening also means remembering. Choose to remember who and what you are. Namaste.

Self-governing—collective social gov’t

Comments Off on Self-governing—collective social gov’t

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening, The Human Condition

, , , ,

JANU: Self-governing for a society entails a measure of awakening through conscious union. It can begin with a desire to find common ground with others. What do you have in common as a foundation for mutual benefit? Reaching into the vast possibilities, embrace a model that evolves, changes, grows, realizing a greater and greater potential. What relationships and structures can benefit everyone, appropriate to each one’s potential? Discovering the reality of mutual connection, perceiving with a perspective of understanding coexistence of individuality and common good or benefit.

The imposition of laws and regulations imposed by a few does not carry the insight of collective consciousness, integration, and the wisdom each one possesses from within. In a world of many creatures, “nature” if you will, the benefit in productive consciousness effects all nature, for it is all connected. Even the behaviors of creatures of the world will evolve. Humanity will come to realize these many levels of contribution to the rest of nature. The direction this takes is a choice. Humanity unawakened does not realize it is not alone in this. All of life is in motion, attempting to realize its potential and evolve into new possibilities, new achievements which set the foundation for even more.

Self-governing is much more than current politics and legalities. Everyone is involved, learning, growing, understanding, and awakening to a larger life. By any comparison, many are still in slumber. The veil is not fixed or permanent. It is temporary. Self-determination and awakening move beyond any limitation, based in a growing wisdom as to the nature of Life. Each one has a legacy of insightful wisdom, of experience, memories. This of course takes initiative, assumption of responsibility, standing in your truth, and exploring it. This is government by the people who have common ground in their True Natures. Namaste.
