Comments Off on Understanding predetermination

JANU: Predetermination seems to fly in the face of free will. One has to realize that the human centered consciousness exercises choice, but that choice is within a scope of possibilities the True Nature embraces. As life is in motion, predetermination refers to orders of creativity and relationships. Outcomes of choice range far and wide but life, so to speak, is as circles within circles within circles of possibilities. So choice comes face to face with its own potential.

So, the question becomes: Is your identity limited? Is your consciousness aware of the full nature of being and the potentials of choices? One is not compelled to a limited identity, a limited awareness, a limited command. Becoming more aware of the choices available allows for focusing and refinement.

Existence is a composite of so many realities, all coexisting. The True Nature, which is who you are, what you are, can manage existence. Namaste.

, awakening, choices, Service

JANU: We are surveying the events of the day, as to your concern about the discord between nations and peoples. The issue here is that they lack a superior model of existence. Physical force is the epitome of their sense of power. Destructive power as an ultimate model for resolution of differences is from ignorance. They have yet to perceive that that sort of power doesn’t build anything, but destroys each other. How can one appreciate true power in the face of this, when that’s all they know?

True power does not destroy but coordinates, unifies elements of life, mutually beneficial. Humanity could behave this way, as well, with the proper vision and understanding. True power is appreciated from within, with a consciousness beyond the physical. True power than, more fundamental than physical-only reality. Each one’s True Nature is an example of this.

“So, where does awakening to this come from?” you ask. It comes from the within that is connected to everything. Not religion. Religion is inspired by this, without understanding. Going within, so to speak, connects you with everything, including who you are, the who you are that lives in this way. Most are not even convinced there is a reality, a viable reality, available to them other than physicality and they model this to each other.

Part of the reason for this service is to support this option of the awakening of humanity, that the truth that lives within each one can be heard and experienced, and manifested. It is all coming. The letting go of a limited perception can be easy or difficult. The choice belongs to everyone. So let us continue to support the spark of Light, the insightful moment that answers the question “Is there a better way?” Physical force not seeming to be the answer. Namaste.

Miscellaneous Journeys

awakening, choices, conscious union, evolution, potential, the True Nature, the veil

JANU: Embracing the human condition while incarnate, from a perspective ‘on high’ so to speak, brings resolution to longstanding struggles and confusion of the nature of existence and purpose of existence. A balanced approach, centered in wisdom and peace and the evolution of human potential, remembering that each human is something much more than what seems apparent to them.

Freedom of choice is an inherent prerogative. Choosing what? What options of choice? What reference for wisdom in the choice? It is not interference to offer options with clarity. Are choices unlimited? And what revelations may be achieved as to the consequence of choice? Not just for others, but for the self as well. How do individual potentials and consequences benefit from any collaboration? Can there be clarity prior to experience, to assist in choice making?

The insights of the True Nature are a good beginning, for much experience, wisdom, and clarity, and resources are available there. Each one’s True Nature is available, even when behind the veil on the incarnate journey. A reason for awakening, no matter the focus in the sojourn. It is possible to make a choice with sincerity and examine its outcome in consciousness, especially when conscious union with your Nature is exercised. Consider choices carefully and patiently. Namaste.

Elements of Awakening

choices, consciousness expansion, identity, larger life, symbols, wisdom

JANU: Seeing the truth of things is a practicality you seek, for a life committed to taking journeys into awakening to the Larger Life. The practical result is wisdom, insight, awareness, consciousness expansion, the liberation of identity, and a deepening understanding of the self, of others, of society, the Earth and its creatures, the nature of everything. Wiser choices benefit everyone in your circle of influence through service.

Symbolism works best when there is not the need to verbalize their meanings, but when you allow your consciousness to be one with what the symbol represents. Words limit the experience and the understanding. But before the symbol existed, what it represents already was a reality. So the reality comes first, you see, and the symbol of it after. Symbols are only clues. Do not worship them. Be the truth of what they represent and you will know more than the words can say.

Experiences can be shared the same way with those who are awakening. Namaste.

Human Potential & the Larger Life

choices, human potential, larger life, life patterns

JANU: Choice, then, aptly stated is a driving force in the fulfillment of destiny for anyone’s journey through life. The power of choice is insurmountable, but the questions arise: Where is the wisdom in making a choice? What are the motivators? What are the possibilities of outcome? And what other choices are triggered by any choice?

Decision-making is based upon available information and understanding but shaped by emotions, preferences, life patterns, foundation building on perception, perspective. How does one move through these, beyond this, to enhance choice making? Desires play a role here, but preferring the truth to self-deception and denial, choosing integrity or the honesty to see more clearly, the freedom of perception unbiased, open-mindedness and a love for freedom to fulfill potential. Many reasons direct choice unconsciously.

Sanity enters the picture. How sane are your choices? Are they in harmony with anything? Does experience enhance discernment? And, does one listen for the truth within from a consciousness of their True Nature? Yes, one considers the lives, the experiences of those around them, but they are not the final choice-maker.

No matter the choice made, learn from the experience. See it for what it is. Grow wiser. Understand the process. Have confidence that life continues, no matter the choices. Always another opportunity to choose again, on some level. Always having freedom to choose. Namaste.

Human Potential & the Larger Life

choices, freedom, human potential, larger life, wisdom

JANU: We are remembering when there were among us those that serve the Light in dominant ways, that prolonged the future expression of potential. Doing this by way of the pretense that there will always be one.

Now, by ‘pretense’ we mean: performing or functioning as if your goal was already being accomplished, removing all doubt or hesitation. “Fake it ‘til you make it” is an oversimplification but carries the idea. These beings still exist, performing as they may. Their legacy is this understanding that in life all things are possible and to navigate your existence with this in mind.

There are protocols that respect the freedom of choice of each one and the freedom to change their choices as they see fit. Creatures of the Earth deserve the same respect. The evolution of human relationship to these creatures, and to nature, is by no means at an end. Now, the wisdom to pursue this comes from experience, not just human experience, but the wisdom and experience of the entire being. And not just your being, but the beingness of all the expressions of life.

All things are possible. Life allows this. Choose wisely. Namaste.

Service

changes, choices, evolution, service to life

JANU: What we serve here is the stability of the free markets of your time, for they serve the public and what we reach for here, during these times of change, is a modicum of stability.

Stability, then, does not fly in the face of change, but allows change to occur without loss of function. Otherwise, the theme becomes survival, desperate survival, and this can retard humanity’s evolution. We of the Brotherhood of Light enjoin you to serve the need for stability as humanity reaches for direction. It is not the intent here to disregard, or abandon, much of what humanity has achieved, even though profound changes are coming. What we seek here is to support that which will serve humanity in its new directions.

There is a tipping point to be considered and measured when it comes to that which must be left behind or that which must continue. Government, industry, religion, economics, culture, and decency are in the mix, you see. Science and technology, and the arts, as well.

So, what we serve this evening is transition without chaos or collapse. This is possible, not just in your nation, but worldwide. Remember, these are human choices in humanity’s society. Our path is to inspire. Namaste.

Moving human hearts from fear to love

Service

choices, freedom, Keywords:, love, Service, Truth of Life

JANU: Alert once more to the beckoning for an evening service, that which comes by the honored tradition of the completing of a day’s journey, what better way to complete a cycle of life than to serve it. Let us now proceed on this journey of service. Never underestimate the power of the Light to achieve that which is needed.

Service this evening shall include the concern for the human race in this time of change that quickens so much fear. Tonight we serve the hearts of humanity, bringing such love as alternative to any fear. Let us begin at this time. (extended pause)

Humanity cannot embrace its destiny with fear in their hearts. Only the love that unites the self with the truth of life that exits everywhere will heal this forever. Let the fear expressed by others always remind you of this alternative, for many have yet to realize there is one. People will ask you “How do I achieve this love and freedom?” By acknowledging its truth and reality that has always existed within them. Choose freedom, by the same authority that you have chosen fear. You are the power that placed fear in your world. That same power realizes love. In other words, dear ones, choose. And choose with passion and conviction and commitment and with deed.

Those with remorse from their previous actions will be free, for in this love of their choosing they forgive themselves. Only love can accomplish this, because love finds no fault and condemns none. It unifies life and expands it. Preach this, to all who will listen, by your example. Namaste.

Exploring identity

Human Potential & the Larger Life

choices, freedom, human potential, identity, larger life

JANU: Personal identity is a mixed bag, for varying degrees of identity and types of identity exist among people. To identify as one race or another can even fly in the face of physical reality. Many causes are fueled by senses of identity. Conflicts between genders, races, economic status, realities, politics, romance, even artistic abilities are fueled by different shapes of identity. And these change, providing a myriad of interpretations and expressions.

So the question becomes “Who are you, in this moment, in this circumstance, in these relationships?” Probably wise to say that your identity is what you choose in the moment, based upon personal agendas, social pressures, degree of awakening and understanding. So, grow in the freedom to identify as you choose, reaping those benefits or challenges, free to experiment with realities of identification, testing the waters socially and introspectively.

“Who are you?” then is a question for the moment. And what are the complex identities and their relationships that exist in that moment? Are you identified with your experiences or more towards your True Nature? And what is that? What’s the reality of it in your life, in your consciousness? What levels of familiarity exist in conscious relationship?

JANU: Assuming then that the popularity of insight, forecasting of the future and the nature of occurrences, is the best path for balanced awakening, the balance, our brother, occurs when insight matches creativity or creation and observed changes for evolution in life expression. Direct knowing suggests that what is being experienced is a stable reality, predictable in outcome. It is not. Life is possibilities super-imposed on each other, the choices of which, or selections, are not only possibilities but combinations of these. Opportunities are the same way. So success in awakening is founded in choices, choices based upon current perceptions and potentials of the moment, conscious awakening in a field of reality with many layers of coexistence, co-potentials, and ever changing and evolving outcomes.

So successful awakening is what works for you, and even that is changing as you evolve. So what you hang your hat upon is life in motion. The so-called successful or ‘right way’ as a path of awakening is what inspires and fulfills you in a limitless variety of choices and outcomes. If you are at peace, find happiness and joy, rich in love of life and its potential or future, you’re successfully awakening. Be at peace. Continue on. Explore. Evaluate. Observe and gain wisdom, whatever it may be. Be life in motion. Namaste.
