awakening, collective consciousness, consciousness expansion, Truth of Life

JANU: Humanity’s potential and destiny calls it to fulfill what it can be, for humanity and its potential and its destiny are as one reality. How it engages it is subject to its choices. The models it has engaged, built for itself, as an ordered structure for living and progressing, will go through many changes. The concepts of society, organization, religion, philosophy, government, health and well-being, and education will all change. For the current systems of living are limited, primarily from instincts for survival and the cherishing of so-called individuality, privacy, uniqueness, and separation from other elements of life. This will all change, our brother. The challenge for humanity will be the ability to perceive, to see and understand how these changes enhance life, enrich it, and bring greater prosperity, health and well-being, and insight into themselves and the rest of life.

Yes, the paradigm is shifting, as it must, for life is in motion, evolving. And humanity is part of that movement. Humanity will learn to perceive its collective being as a collective being, with a destiny, a future, and a living presence in the larger arena of life. Only in doing so will it see the merit in supporting other species’ movement in this direction, and other species who have already achieved it. The obsession with individual survival will give way to appreciation of collective survival and how all contribute to this. So as sojourns begin and end, life continues. Humanity continues and grows into its future because all have existed and contributed. The end of a sojourn is the changing of the form of expression, but the nature of that life continues on, still growing, still evolving, and still contributing. May humanity find peace in this truth of life, and be grateful for their service. Namaste.

Oneness

awakening, consciousness expansion, metaphysics, service to life

JANU: For today’s focus let us pursue the interest in formulating a path of transformation of ignorance to enlightenment. We hear so many comment as to this or that, revealing much as to the state of consciousness of humanity. Many opportunities are on the horizon, our brother, that will challenge humanity to grow into a richer life.

Realizing who you are, and what you and life can be, is a grand journey. And so-called ‘outer life’ and ‘inner life’ must merge into oneness for both to flower. Wisdom comes from experience when knowledge is applied to opportunity. And wisdom brings a greater sense of the completion of life, the balance and potential, and the maturity to embrace successfully the choices that are made.

Envision a life where one can choose their form of life and change it at will, depending upon the reality that is embraced. Currently, humanity sees itself as limited to the human body, the human personality, and physical surroundings of form and their properties. Consider the freedom and ability to understand and experience whatever interests you, anywhere in life, even your own origins and your potential.

Consider a life where survival is not a concern and that needed can be manifested as needed. A life where one questions “What is next?” from an array of choices, not from confusion and emptiness. A life where peace and happiness and joy are by choice only, not requiring circumstance. Where one can observe and understand the present from the future or from the past. Observing life from any perspective, not limited to time or distance. Where one can attune to someone on another world as sheer Life.

The possibilities are endless, our brother, and they exist now. Namaste.

The Art of Oneness—a beginning grasp

Comments Off on The Art of Oneness—a beginning grasp

Oneness

awakening, consciousness expansion, inspiration, oneness

JANU: There is an art to oneness, the reality of it, the achievement of it, the implementation of it. Oneness comes under the category of harmonious peace and intimacy of relationship, an identity that includes the identity of others and the rest of life. How then does one select this sort of relationship with life, appropriate to the moment? Oneness already exists throughout life, but a conscious relationship with it, depending upon the consciousness, is selective through degrees of confidence one has in their own being, the openness of mind, the peace in one’s own consciousness and existence, and maturity in understanding life.

Now, curiosity is not the theme here, but an acceptance of the responsibility that comes with knowledge and experience and a respect for the integrity of the rest of life’s expression and realities. The primary reason for gaining understanding of more of life is to enhance one’s service to it, that that life benefit on its path of discovery, evolution, and potential. So, when one ponders oneness with anyone or anything or any reality, these qualities must be present.

One would do well to ask the question: Why does one seek oneness with anything or anyone and what does that mean? When asking from the point of view of individualization, it is difficult to perceive a larger view of the reality considered. So, as oneness is applied to the life experience and capability, one moves to that degree from just individual consciousness, single identity, to cosmic consciousness, a larger identity more at peace with all of life and more involved. So oneness, then, our brother, is intimacy, involvement, and harmonious peace with life, with respect for integrity and the life that it is.

The Art of Oneness is the art of harmonious at-one-ment with. Another process of life of return to what we all are. Namaste.

Miscellaneous Journeys

awakening, inspiration, metaphysics, service to life

JANU: This morning’s focus shall be about the elderly of humanity. Their story is a rich one, for it is a combination of birth, experience in the human condition, and the returning to their origin, their true home in life.

Keenly aware of the frailties and declining conditions of the body, they still value life and hope for the future of humanity, as well as anticipating the next true adventure in life. They have achieved much wisdom and, yet initially frustrated with a lack of opportunity to give what they know, eventually realizing that others will find their own wisdom in their own way. And their contribution to this, from living, gives them peace. The insights into what is to come for them are few at first, but as the time draws near, their consciousness reveals to them the blessing to come.

May we join with them at this time, with encouragement and profound peace in knowing their journey has been worthwhile and more journeys will come, to begin again another episode of living, should they choose incarnation again. Liberation from the body will bring about rejuvenation of their consciousness as true spiritual beings: free to be, without the heaviness of incarnate life.

But the time of transition is unique and special, indeed, on the journeys in life. And they have done well. The grand moment of transition is the letting go into peace and transition into Light and their True Nature. Be at peace, our brother, embracing this part of the journey, realizing that you never were this body, but an eternal being that chose to be here for a time. Namaste.

The purpose and function of the Structures of Life

Comments Off on The purpose and function of the Structures of Life

Miscellaneous Journeys

awakening, consciousness expansion, inspiration

JANU: These Structures of Life that we speak of have a cadence and rhythm to them. There is a pulsing reality to life. It is like a pumping action, keeping life flexible, in motion, and capable of absorption and distribution of change and new fledging realities, as well. So the Structures of Life, you see, are not all rigid, solidly formed. They are in motion as well, as life pulses into its potential.

To understand these structures, one would do well to understand their own. Your thoughts, your emotions, your decisions, choices, and engagements of the various elements of life are structured. How often have you observed one thought leading to another, one feeling leading to another? The habits and programming of your consciousness, of your being, of your bodies, repetitive to the point of slight awareness of the repetition. These structures, these patterns of existence, support each other and are the pumping action that keep life in motion, flexible, and absorbent, and expressive. This is the nature of life, our brother, and we understand this well and take fuller advantage of what they afford.

From a certain point of view, this pulsing appears or seems to be continuous motion. From other points of view, one can observe the ebb and flow of life and what it carries with it. Even your sojourns, your many lives, have pattern that resembles these Structures of Life. The choices that are made to embody and the reasons for them. Structure of one form or another is everywhere, our brother.

As to life beyond these realities: they are the causal source of these pulsings, these Structures, but they do not use them in the same way, our brother, for the reality is different.

Now, you ask the question, “How does one take advantage of or full benefit of these Structures?” By placing your attention upon and attuning to what these Structures contain and the ebb and flow of experience that moves through them, by them. When one observes a pattern in their own life, their daily routine, of choice, of emotion, of thought process, examine what is taking place. How the patterns have evolved over time, along the rich path of experience. One will learn to anticipate these movements and make clearer choices with deeper understanding, for structures and patterns have much to speak to you and their memory, so to speak, is longstanding and revelatory.

Questions to ask oneself are: Why do you do what you do? Why do you continue to feel a certain way? And why do you have attitudes that do not seem to change, or grow, or evolve? What parts of your life do you feel stuck in and not free to change?

The life you live in your world is not who you are, but it has patterns and structures that continue. The choices, the engagements, and the results you have made. Freedom to be does not mean your engagement or involvement with these Structures of Life, but the mastering of them through understanding and observation.

The transmutation of memories

Comments Off on The transmutation of memories

Miscellaneous Journeys

awakening, consciousness expansion, meditation

JANU: Let us examine, then, the transmutation of memories, their pattern energy, recall, and influence upon emotions, state of mind, peace, and decision-making. How does one transmute a memory, and then, completing its mission and purpose, take full advantage of what it offers?

Memories are the result of experience, our brother, a record if you will to return to in order to complete the experience and make it your own, to own it in other words. The opportunity and challenge here is to reconnect with the experience, the memory, the record of, this time with the advantage of objectivity and a more conscious approach to that experience. Many memories are connected in one way or another, both empirically and horizontally. So the processing of one can lead to the processing of another, probing the depth of meaning, lesson learning, and achievement of new perspective and ownership of who you are. The experience can be relived as if real in the moment and dealt with in different ways, experimenting with possible outcomes. Much to be learned in this way. This way a memory becomes an evolved memory, transmuted, if you will, by the process. So, in a sense the memory remains but it is a new one, no longer the same. Building, then, an improved foundation for engaging life, serving life and understanding it.

So see these memories, then, as they arrive, as undeveloped portions of experience, records of experience awaiting the transmutation process. These are contributors to your growth, our brother, and not there to haunt you. Be grateful that you have many. They are there to serve you and they are your own creation. So, own the record of life of your own creating and grow in the wisdom of those experiences, applying the wisdom gained to experiences to come.

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.

The NOW

awakening, inspiration, service to life

JANU: These journeys will play a role in the awakening of humanity and other relationships as well. Profound insight expanding through the collective humanity will bring a much clearer vision of the nature of humanity, its destiny, its potential individually and collectively. Life will be seen differently through many different eyes, and conflicts of the past, although more clearly understood, will be seen for their legacy of missed opportunity and an appreciation for a richer life. For today’s journey, may we partake of an evolution in consciousness that grows in intimacy with many other beings in the spectrum of life.

Let us postulate that journeys to other worlds are in humanity’s future but long before humanity arrives there, contact will already have been made through journeys such as these. For there are a number of your world who are capable of such and have been operating in this way. More than you realize. The masses are not aware of this yet, but they will be. And, of course, there will be attempted exploitation by those who only see advantage in power and control, but the power and the control is a temporary illusion. Manipulation of opportunity for personal gain is not new to the universe and has been dealt with successfully in many locations.

Contemplating the future, so to speak, has its benefits. But the tasks at hand must be given their due for they are part of the future as well. In a very real sense, the future is now. So let us continue to develop the abilities with these journeys that they evolve, reach new thresholds, and continue to provide opportunity to inspire awakening. Namaste, our brother.

What is an open mind?

Comments Off on What is an open mind?

Elements of Awakening, Larger Family of Life

awakening, connection with life, consciousness expansion

JANU: An open mind, indeed, is a worthy ongoing goal in the quest for life. It is a critical element in mastery of the challenges of life and we agree that it is to be developed for the benefit of humanity. What contributes to a closed mind might be explored as a beginning understanding of what is an open mind.

A closed mind lives in fear of anything new, unknown, challenging, and that challenges the comfort of a world of consciousness limited to what is known and safe. A closed mind can be compared to the limiting consciousness as relates to personal exercise, for many know of its benefit but still avoid it because it requires commitment, effort, follow through, regularity and, for effectiveness, a more detailed understanding of the physical body and the mind/body connection.

An open mind requires the commitment to the pursuit of understanding, taking the time to do this, the ability to focus and follow through. On certain levels, it does require effort, our brother, exercising the brain/mind connection and then, with the new information gathered and understood, decisions to be made as to application, modification of old ways, analysis, and the peace to absorb and evolve thoughts, emotions, passions, and a changing perception of reality. An opened mind serves all of the bodies, brings freedom to their evolution and sense of peace in any situation. An open mind recovers lost information and understanding of past relationships and the service they can bring to the moment. An open mind is more tolerant of others because of the understanding and allows for intimacy of relationship with those who differ from you. An open mind leaves one free to praise another, uplift, encourage, and inspire, for an open mind understands the benefit to everyone. An open mind embraces the future with enthusiasm, anticipation, and expectancy that the beauty of life is endless. An open mind partners with the other species of life, the other minds awakening to a grander life. An open mind moves beyond association to partnership, intimacy, and appreciation of oneness.

An open mind is the beginning for countless adventures and a relationship with all of life, not just abstractly but ‘at one with.’ An open mind and awakening go hand in hand.

A Life of Oneness: Letting go of the lack of Light

Comments Off on A Life of Oneness: Letting go of the lack of Light

Oneness

awakening, connection to life, consciousness expansion, oneness

JANU: Oneness, then, to be served as a reality of origination, of consciousness. Oneness awareness, to be conscious of oneness, is your heritage of being and part of your being is oneness. Most have chosen to not be conscious of this for the purpose of exploring and gaining wisdom from the individuality, a sense of unique identity from the rest of manifest life. Individuality, then, taking on a more precise meaning, becoming the identity.

A life as one, of oneness, as suggested by this focus, is the realization that individuality, separation consciousness, and oneness have co-existed all of this time, with the denser reality seemingly isolated from the rest of life. The awakening and the resurgence of oneness is the maturing of the individual to the point of realization that they are more than this, although not understood. A sense within that there is a connection to the rest of life. Realizing in time the vitality of this, the essential nature.

In human terms, it has been a slow journey, the length of which is determined by the choices made as to what is important in a moment. It has always been available to human consciousness to choose any part of life to explore. And faculties exist to do just that, but with the focus on materiality and managing materiality to serve the perceived needs of living. Let there be, then, a deeper reflection upon what has always been known, on some level, to the individual being. And most of discovering, at this point, is remembering what has already been known in the fullness of consciousness and True Nature.

We speak of oneness as something to be achieved. It is more something to be returned to in consciousness, to be aware of, to engage and embrace, and move your identity to. The struggle is not to embrace the Light, but to let go of the lack of it. There is nothing to fear, our brother, only to be loved. Namaste.
