The Brotherhoods of Light

JANU: We are organized as a group called the Brotherhood of Light, which encompasses much and is always in motion, fluid if you will, with many factions of specialization, insight, experience, and attunement to life. We would have you understand and know that this brotherhood is not gender specific. ‘Brotherhood’ used in the sense of camaraderie, mutual support and cooperation, and combined effectiveness, which is ever growing.

There are many brotherhoods in what you call ‘Spirit,’ our brother. They belong to a tradition of service, exploration, discovery, and achievement. And, yes, they know of each other and can draw upon each other to meet opportunities to serve life. The brotherhoods are not identified by location but by consciousness, patterns of existence, and refinement of interests. The so-called members, if you will, of any brotherhood are not imprisoned there, you see. They come and go, as their call guides them.

You ask, “How do they know which opportunities to embrace?” It is by the energetic pattern, configuration of every opportunity. And these are communicated by very subtle means to those brotherhoods of like mind, like pattern. Life is like an ocean of information, our brother, patterns of existence, energies, radiation patterns on those levels. It is not difficult to connect with countless opportunities in life to relate to and become one with. And, yes, the brotherhoods are in many opportunities to serve at the same time, although time and space are not factors. Indirectly, they are, but not limited to that.

Compared to human consciousness, physically speaking, they seem an unlimited resource for information and understanding, patience, wisdom, and love. And for the most part, they are. Yes, there are some, our brother, who are incarnate in other worlds, here and there, who are in such close proximity and consciousness to the Brotherhoods of Light that they virtually act as one, giving the Brotherhoods more intimate access to the incarnate life, the better to serve and understand. Some have moments of this relationship; others have a life full of this relationship.

Life is not as stratified as some might think. There are many overlaps, other than use of life for various reasons. And even this is always changing, moving in new directions, accomplishing grander things, and life is being enriched. Humanity many times thinks they walk alone, private, living only by their wits. They are observed, measured, if you will, in terms of where they’re at in life, nudged and encouraged in most subtle ways, and inspired. Their life is filled, more than they realize, and Life knows everything, for they are one with Life, whether they are aware of it or not.

Stumbling through life is not a destiny, but even at this, humanity learns, experiments, and grows. But their resources for engaging life are vaster indeed. But the choice is humanity’s for, in the larger scheme of reality, humanity—and by this we mean those who inhabit humanity—are not governed by time or space and are free beings, living what they choose. We of the Brotherhoods of Light live this way as well. Namaste.

Mastership

JANU: For some, mastership denotes an achievement of complete mastery, a final threshold. It is not. Mastership occurs each day, with significant victories, ownership of some part of life, the life’s experience, whether it be conduct or understanding or well-being or loving another.

Mastership is a continuous process, a growing experience, a constantly rewarding part of life. And one does not achieve any mastership in isolation, for the fruits of each achievement are known by life and observed and experienced by others. Confidence in a path of achievement is supported by others with similar accomplishments, and these encourage each other to achieve more. Mastership is a collective reality, not just individual.

And it is not a final threshold, but the evolution of life. When one overcomes an obstacle, a challenge in life and understands it, and owns their role in it, the sense of accomplishment that ensues is from that journey into mastership. Mastership is not some far away, distant, impossible achievement for some other time and place or reality. It is every moment of every day. The experience of mastership resides in every nuance of life, every opportunity. And each victory in this, in any area of living, can be revisited and developed further.

In a very real way, mastership does not yield power over others. It enables a deeper service to others and to life, for the road of mastership is the road of oneness, the path of union enriched with countless moments of achievement, demonstrated through living. Mastership honors you and all of life. Life’s investment in your existence is rewarded and expanded. Remember that your joy in these victories is life’s experience as well, for you are life. Once again, another steppingstone on the path of awakening into the larger life.

An intimate view of the human condition

JANU: As humanity is encumbered at this time with the results of its choices for individual and societal norms, in many ways it is accommodating its limitation of resources for understanding and true empowerment that it is aware of. Now, one does not paint all of humanity with one brush stroke, for there are many who are reaching for more and many who have achieved a great deal, but mostly individually and in small groups. The momentum of larger organizations in society continues to carry them in the directions of the past. When an enlightened and awakening society demands new directions, driven by their inner passion and vision of a brighter future, these organizations will change. For without the people, where can they go?

The awakening of humanity certainly has its struggles for the less enlightened ways struggle to survive, for it is what is known and leaving that behind can be confusing without understanding and seeing the next rung on the ladder of life. We of the Brotherhood of Light understand this, having witnessed this journey before. Even though we escort you on larger journeys of life, the more abstract the more profound, we are not ignorant of the realities of living and coping with varying degrees of ignorance of these things. So journeying on this path of awakening includes intimacy of understanding current conditions, as well as the challenges to come, the opportunities to come, the victories to come, and the larger life’s realities that are worth the effort individually and collectively.
We are the Brotherhood of Light, ‘light’ meaning the truth of life, and, in reality, our brother, humanity is part of this brotherhood and is considered to be an intimate part. So let us continue to journey together into the Light, into the future, into human destiny and the enrichment it brings to life. So we continue to serve humanity, brothers that they are, and we all grow stronger because of it. Condemn not a child that trips and falls, that disturbs the balance of things not knowing why. So you inspire and help the child arise once more, to begin again to adapt to the larger life with understanding. In the largest view of reality, of life itself, we are all children on the path, helping each other understand and try once more.

Human self-perception seen from a larger perspective

 JANU:    For this morning’s journey, let us partake of an exploration into the nature of life on another world. One purpose being to raise human consciousness on the Earth to life beyond it, putting its own life in a larger perspective. As you have requested, we choose the planet Mars for this morning’s journey.

Mars has a rich history, mostly unknown by humanity and science. Many cultures have come and gone, yet much remains to be seen and understood. The flow of water on Mars in earlier times was the object of much activity and culture. Water movements were explored for their usefulness. Irrigation of crops seems strange when viewing a world devoid of vegetation, but at that time it was not.

The vegetation that existed on Mars would look strange indeed, in some cases, compared to the Earth, for the source of these types of vegetation was not unlike the source for that of the Earth. The variations evolve on the scene. Mars’s vegetation was very colorful, yellows, reds, and greens, and of course others but these were dominant. The size and height of these vegetations was somewhat greater than on Earth due to the lower gravity.

Science and technology flowered as well. It eventually was turned towards understanding and controlling the slow demise of Mars as a viable world. And eventually the cultures left, but did not forget Mars and all that it had meant to them.

Three civilizations in particular were part of Mars’s history. One was beings of what you would call ‘gargantuan’ proportion, finding it suitable for its low gravity, allowing their great bulk to be comfortable. The second and the third existed on Mars at the same time, cultures from other worlds similar enough in physicality to work in harmony. These beings addressed themselves as the “Voyet” [Pronounced /voy-yette/], similar. Now, in their understanding of their language, this name meant “the united ones.” And in time it became difficult to tell one from the other. They had the greatest interest in preserving the viability of Mars. A few stayed behind when the others left, determined to survive; yet they perished. Some evidence of their existence remains at this time, but in underground structures built for survival. Others have visited Mars since their demise and discovered their remains, but left them entombed.

Humanity will eventually colonize Mars, but only to a small degree, discovering that the Martian resources that are practical to extract and support life are insufficient. But they will learn much in this endeavor and take what they have learned elsewhere. Mars will become what it’s best suited for in the future, and that is a jumping off place, so to speak, to other adventures. As more and more of the larger life is discovered by humanity, the opportunities will make that clear. Much in store yet for this so-called ‘red’ planet, but only as a part of humanity’s movement into a larger life.

Controlling life is an illusion of limited consciousness

JANU:     For this morning’s journey, let us partake of what some might term ‘the exponential evolution of life’ that already exists. Difficult to describe in physical terms of time/space, for the nature, forms, times, and expansion of life are in constant flux, a variation of theme, parameters of existence and realities. But life is evolving, our brother. Make no mistake. And all realities, expressions, and forms are of the One Life, connected in so many ways they are beyond description. It is possible to sense this collective reality, and experience its vitality due to its diversity. Many in your world would say, “To what end? What is the point of such a journey?” for they are focused upon the current moments in their life, of plans and struggle, ambitions, seeing all of that as more immediate and controllable. But control is an illusion, our brother, limited, to say the least, when one isolates their consciousness to such a brief portion of life. These journeys we take change perspective to include so much more. Long-range outcomes are far more understandable when the illusion of control expands to the truth of the harmony you achieve with the life you thought you were controlling, or trying to. Becoming one with a part of life in consciousness and understanding is true control. But the control is in the sense of agreement with potential, possible destinies and service. What does love of life mean, then, our brother, other than these things: to be one with, to support, to understand, to embrace and serve, playing a role of lifting life into all it can be and everything in it? The true nature of peace we’ve been exploring is a key element of this transition from limited to unlimited consciousness. A struggle perceived in the past, or in the present, is seen for what it is, for one understands its source and reason for being and your choices that have attracted it to your life. So, the journeys we take, the understandings we achieve, the experiences of more of our True Nature, bring a greater freedom to explore more of life and master it, in the sense of becoming one with it. When challenges arrive, and previously seen as struggles, the awakened mind also sees the potential outcomes, which are real to them. A challenge is no longer a struggle for the focus is upon the outcome that is perceived, and the power to realize it arrives through the commitment no longer obstructed by confusion and disbelief. Once again, the choices are yours. Wise is the one who can perceive all of the choices to be made, and understand them. The path to peace is the path to a rich life. Namaste, our brother.

Humanity’s path to peace

JANU:   We are encouraging a model of consciousness to serve and support the emergence of True Peace around the Earth, around the world, around the culture, around each one, that True Peace become a way of life for each one to choose. The True Natures of humanity support a life of mutual benefit, moving beyond the cycles of repetition focused in disharmony, with attention upon and commitment to true freedom to be creative, happy, and loving, and conscious of destiny and potential and discovery. Embracing all challenges and opportunities with these profound attributes of human consciousness will enrich the human experience.

Many other worlds struggle with similar challenges, and many have resolved them. What awaits humanity, and much more, is to experience and involve with the larger Family of Life. Many worlds and many realities are there and have been. Humanity and the Earth is but one of countless, but still only on the doorstep of such revelation. The peaceful path liberates the consciousness from all cycles of isolation, depravity, and poverty of understanding. So let us continue with this and explore humanity’s path to peace and a brighter future. Namaste.

Music and the rhythms of life

JANU:     Music can be like an experience of natural rhythms of life, cadences, harmonious frequencies and relationships, moments of profound peace and emotions ranging their full potential. Insights can come from musical experience as the experience reveals resolution of disharmony and the leaving behind, at least for the moment, disturbing concerns. There is an inherent peace in music, whether intended by the composer or not, that has to do with touching inner harmonies that are part of the natural make up of any being, any listener. When playing an instrument and learning the music, the individual deepens these patterns of rhythmic life. And what makes music beautiful to one is that they travel a journey inspired by the music and its many components and melody, uplifting into spirit the nature of their own being.

All of creation, our brother, is a symphony with many perspectives, interpretations. Music can reshape a moment and, yes, heal peace-less and loveless patterns of life, opening the door to release from these, connecting the consciousness of one and groups to the beauty and magic of an intimacy of their True Nature and previous experiences of the beauty and vitality of life. The power in music is that it touches, it inspires the true power of the listener and the performer and, in a very real way, the two become one…or should we say: realize their oneness…for the performer benefits greatly as well, having listeners that walk their journey with them. They have their own meaning for their composition but they are enriched when hearing your own.

Music is a wonderful bonding experience, bringing people together. Music is an expression of the rhythms of life, the rhythms of your own nature, and the rhythms of your potential into destiny. Music, our brother, is far more than the sounds that you hear, but more the journey you take. When listening carefully, one can hear the harmonious sounds of nature, whether it be the wind or a creature, or the cry of a mother and her cubs, the birds that sing, filled with rhythm, more connected with the rhythms of life than they even know. So, enjoy the music. Be enriched by it. And allow this enrichment to spill over into where you live. Namaste.

The Magic of Life

JANU: We are encouraging at this time the performance of a lifetime, for many, to become one with who they are, their Eternal Self, their True Nature and the truth of their being. This is not ‘a few minutes a day’ technique or exercise. This is a quiet reality throughout the day and evening, becoming at peace and taking the time to love life, including themselves, and not just observe it or understand it. To love oneself is a powerful reality, extending into your relationships with everything. Loving oneself allows you to see and engage the beauty in every moment, that you have the ability to touch life and it touch you.

It is difficult to grasp being one with a part of life and yet have the integrity of your uniqueness at the same time. Understanding uniqueness or differences seems obvious to most but to perceive oneness profoundly seems a departure from individuality. They both co-exist, our brother. It depends upon what you choose to be conscious as, in any moment, in any circumstance. This even applies to having a question and being one with the answer, at the same time.
There have been many in humanity’s past who have achieved this consciousness, seemingly isolated from the rest of the world yet having intimate knowledge of the portrayal of life everywhere. So many come to these for answers to their questions, to explain their life circumstance. Yet they all could achieve what these seers have achieved, but they have no confidence or commitment to their own profound abilities. The true teacher inspires others into their freedom to know and be their true desires.
What is the magic, then, that inspires one to take that step on that journey of becoming? It takes one moment of direct experience to take the step on that journey. The form that takes varies greatly, but the message is the same and it’s a message that’s been with them, as a being, always. ‘Loving who you are truly’ is the magical doorway to a larger life.

Exploring Mars

JANU:    For this morning’s journey, let us pursue the nature of Mars as a world and experiencing its patterns of existence and its memories.

It is possible to know a world for what it is and has been and what it is becoming. The seeds and spoors of ancient vegetation still exist beneath the surface, especially under the ice caps in the polar regions. They hold the memory of what they have been, of their heritage and their innate potential, to grow once more. This will be cultivated by explorers attempting to survive on their own on Mars. There are significant underground reservoirs of water locked up in rock formations, not to mention the ice caps. Solar energy is a grand resource for power, even with current technologies, which are embryonic, if you will.

Mars has known civilizations that come and go. Humanity considers itself indigenous to the Earth. It is not. So it was with Mars in the past. When Mars was abandoned long ago, fairly large reserves were compiled for the future of Mars was understood, but Mars could be a platform of life again. The memories of the planet are stored in fields of subtle energy that are still part of the planet. And these memories reveal all of the realities of this world.

There were a number of underground communities, the remnants of which still offer the opportunity for habitation and survival from the extremes of the surface, you see. Past civilizations built these. Others have discovered that Mars is useful, or was useful, as a temporary waystation to further adventures and opportunities. Humanity will discover this as well. In time, Mars will be as your Moon, never to be as it was but still useful. Still rich with many of its past conditions, artifacts, remnants of other civilizations to be revealed.

The Earth is glowing

JANU:   We are Janu speaking, enjoying the afterglow of recent achievements in human consciousness by many around your world. There is a glow around and in the Earth for humanity is claiming its victory over Darkness, metaphorically speaking. Humanity being one with the Earth, the movement into the Truth of Life or Light, as we have called it, is a shared journey. When observed collectively, human evolution in consciousness is reaching a maturity level, claiming its power to develop the human experience into conscious brotherhood. So much of life is on humanity’s doorstep to be discovered, engaged, and served.

Many individuals and groups, exploring an understanding of the nature of life and the true peace that is part of it, are choosing to identify with and own these changes, more than just understanding, you see. They are choosing to experience them. The day is coming, our brother, when the school systems will include in the curriculum the power within to create and the choices that can be made at any age. When this occurs more fully, the richness within each one’s nature, full of experience of this and other lives, will begin to show and be encouraged. The world will be transformed through this.

The first adventure of discovery is each one’s True Nature and then, through this, the vast richness of life in and beyond the Earth. The elderly will not be left behind in this adventure, for their consciousness, their spirit, is not old and feeble. And their ownership of a life of experience and wisdom will come to the surface with clarity and insight. More and more people will leave the body consciously, as a decision in harmony with the timing of their lives, and less and less from ill health and disease. They will walk from incarnation as easily and naturally as they came into it, in peace, both a joyous experience. The religions of your world will be seen with new eyes for the truths hidden from view by misunderstandings, misperceptions, and the veils of all participants. Every part of human society will change.

The Earth is becoming aglow, our brother, a worthy focus when considering the mayhem of the moment. And the Earth is not alone in this. Namaste, our brother.
