Successful living

JANU: We recognize the need for prolonged understanding of the true nature of life. Now, beginning life successfully is a function of consciousness. And what do we mean by successfully, you ask. We mean embracing and realizing potential, and potential is fluid, not fixed in any way. The middle way we referred to previously is a beginning. This is a tradition of the evolution of consciousness well-established. Embracing the middle way includes creativity, which includes recycling, which includes evolving any realization of potential or creation and adding more to what has been, and still is. We of the Brotherhood of Light have long agreed with this and embrace even more.

These are steppingstones which lead to that which is more akin to Life. The human journey has much more potential than most realize. Unlimited, unrestricted perception, awareness and experience are part of successful living. Merging the human consciousness with that of the True Nature is an ongoing journey of self-realization. All that you see around you outwardly has reality as its source. The middle way, you see, includes everything in the spectrum of life. The duality existence of dichotomies is a beginning. Namaste.

The Middle Way

JANU: We are responding then to your query as to purpose and meaning in the presence of the dichotomy of life of so-called good and bad, constructive destructive. Where does a person hang their hat and why?

From the larger point of view, Life allows the dichotomy, also allows the middle way. Neither extreme in the dichotomy of good and bad is the answer. The middle way allows for balance, compromise, mutual agreement, give and take, building a foundation to proceed with–that can deal with successfully–the dichotomies of life, yielding evolution, wisdom, maturity, insight, understanding, and the capacity to embrace the full reach of life. So, in answer to your query, ask the question, “What is the middle way?”

The middle way understands and embraces, bringing resolution to the full spectrum of life. Neither good nor bad, but profound in capacity and love for the opportunity to succeed. Namaste.

A universal perspective

JANU: When considering one’s station in life, meaning their circumstance in every way, one needs to consider the beauty and the ugliness as self-described, not only in others and circumstance but within as well. Now, can one truly evaluate themselves and others without this? Life itself allows all of this and registers it all. Embracing yourself and others, and your circumstance and theirs, in the manner life does is an ideal worth pursuing. It transcends duality, right & wrong, good & bad. Love replaces fear and doubt and confusion, for it is the vehicle of insight, peace, and understanding. Judgement occurs in the midst of preferences, for preferences do not allow all faces of life. One can take a different journey of experience and expression without finding fault with another’s. Like countless blades of grass, life has a tapestry, yet the lawn is beautiful and endures while consisting of the differences one blade to another. Namaste.

Emotion and reason balanced peacefully

JANU: We are celebrating, if you will, the coming together of, the merging of, rational and emotional responses to the challenges of life. Integrity is maintained when these two aspects of consciousness co-exist. One enriches the other and, when this occurs, peace is maintained and the flow of awakening responds. Keep in mind that the distribution of life brings about opportunities for advancing that relationship. The more one becomes attuned to the guidance that supports this balance, another step towards mastership has been achieved. But the pendulum swings both ways, our brother. It is still one pendulum and at its apex purpose is maintained and progresses. There will be times when one seems stronger that the other, but both are necessary for wisdom to prevail in each one. Even-mindedness is demonstrated by this balance and the body responds accordingly. This is part of the peace that we refer to frequently. Namaste.

Wise decision making

JANU: The dichotomies of life can seem absurd at times, bewildering and confusing, but they are the extremes to illustrate the range of reality. Processing life experiences, circumstances, challenges, opportunities is best achieved in the middle way, the balance of the elements of life. As your thoughts just considered, intuition, emotions, logic and reason or mentality, provide a wide range of choices and considerations.

How does one integrate these channels of observation and consideration? It is accomplished, our brother, on a point by point reflection, weighing the truth of each when considering goals involved, the desires. And even then what is optimal for each situation’s outcomes changes. So re-considerations, adjustments, movement of emphasis are allowed to reveal themselves.

Much to consider when making choices. The honest arbiter of all of these is the wisdom, the truth of your True Nature. Confidence in the rightness of choices for you can be experienced in all of these channels, if you will, of approach to life circumstance. There is a peace inherent in wisdom and balance of options. All of your resources, your faculties, can find mutual merit, not favoring one or the other, but allowing each to find their balance in a wise approach to choices.

Peace of mind, balance, integration of faculties, a loving consideration, patience, and clarity serve very well in your own flow of life. Namaste.

The middle path

JANU: We are encouraged, then, by the treatment received in your media for the victims of the recent violence. What does it take, then, to resolve the seeming schism between violence and peace? Violence is a product of society and will remain as long as there are those who are despised, treated unfairly, unlovingly, and those who find safety and comfort in the obscurity of social norms. Even your media feeds both. Where would your media be without this dichotomy? The people are conditioned to hear more about violent news than the prosperity of true peace and its power.

We find this dichotomy exists in many varying degrees in most of society. Each identified with one extreme or the other, either for or against consciousness. Where is the model for balance, unification, the middle way? It lies within, our brother, within the core nature of each one. The benefit of evolving consciousness is the growing clarity of the truth of everything.

In a reverse-engineering perspective, the dichotomies of life reveal the middle path. Fear exists in both extremes. The fear of loss in one, the fear of being alone and without resource in the other. The middle path resolves these with presence and clarity and peace of mind.

Choose your path with wisdom. It is the path of True Peace. Namaste.

Denizens of the deep consciousness

JANU: We are reaching into, if you will, that which belongs to the so-called ‘denizens of the deep,’ troubling issues that foster confusion in the mind, in the body, in the emotions. These denizens, for the most part, are of one’s own creation, unresolved issues that belong to the present and the past. Rare is the individual not subject to these. There have been those who have renewed themselves and are free. The memories persist but are no longer denizens deep in the consciousness.

Purging oneself is accomplished through purification described by absolute forgiveness and a love for self and life. No longer doubting self-worth. No longer self-condemnation for the stumbles that occur unwittingly through living. Life does not condemn you. Only the moral conviction of right and wrong, good and bad, righteous and evil do. These dichotomies are born of separation consciousness, social conditioning. They are not who you are.

Be as angels regard you: a being of Light experimenting with life to gain wisdom and to serve, grateful for every opportunity to experience and understand. Namaste.

Inquiries from the Brotherhood

JANU: We are opening this session to input from those who observe. Each opportunity to serve life, including those that occur within the consciousness of incarnate beings, does not go unnoticed. We of the Brotherhood of Light accede to these.

The first request, our brother, is to understand the motivation of those who resist this change into awakening. Identity is a strong issue here. The human equation includes the focusing of the experience through isolation from the seeming distractions of the larger life. But when engaged deeply and long enough, memory of the larger life fades and substitutes are created, called belief and faith and religion. They keep the attitude open to something more, but at a distance. Direct experience occurs here and there but the social norms are not fertile ground for them to blossom. This channel’s desire has always been there, waiting for majority of consciousness to open the door to awakening. Being available to help inspire maturing consciousnesses is a grand service for those who observe.

The second inquiry has to do with a natural love for each other which is part of the dance of life, but distractions can push this aside in favor of power, survival, possessions, influence, control. These shadows of life are a dim reflection of larger truths that have been forgotten.

The third inquiry has to do with the illusion of power. In the absence of awakening to the larger life, true power is not understood. What seems more immediate and tangible is that power over others equals power of your own destiny and goals. Externalizing, you see. Becoming an illusion of power that seems to work but the results are destructive. Not recognized immediately.

The fourth inquiry has to do with the dichotomy in consciousness of right and wrong, good and bad, love and hate, so-called ‘peace’ and war. The extremes of consciousness perception are easier to observe and require little inspection as to everything in between. The binary mind has a tendency to observe these dichotomies as termination points, rather than part of the Circle of Life of which everything is a part. The current efforts at awakening attempt to bridge these gaps in the continuity of life, in the Circle of Life. Grand opportunity, Brothers in the Light, for service, inspiration, and illumination. Welcome.

Cooperation and competition

JANU: We are encouraging at this time the theme of cooperation. When examining human society and social consciousness, one observes cooperation and competition, both seen as healthy and productive aspects. Cooperation seems clear and its path to productivity and evolution. Competition, on the other hand, appears to have one take advantage of the another, not to the advantage of the other, you see. Now, this sharpens skills and the development of abilities, but it can also be very destructive when serving warring and so-called criminal behavior. So, how does one achieve competition in a society, that is perfect, where the outcomes benefit all?

Relationships are healthy when all parties prosper. This is clear in cooperation but not so clear in competition. So we see an element added here of perception or attitude, where one in competition with another includes in their perception that both prosper. What this leads to is a merging of cooperation and competition as one instead of a dichotomy. The relationship becomes evolutionary. So competition with another is not seeking their demise or poverty but a sharing of insights, creative ideas, and mutual benefit. So competition and cooperation modify each other, you see, called the flow of life. This merging can be revealed through process, more efficient, more productive. Creativity and ideas making it obvious that change is beneficial in one or both parties. But not so keen to see when one is destroying the other, suppressing the other’s creativity and prosperity.

In this way, this old way, cycles are repeated and few lessons learned. But life moves forward and continues to evolve. So choose wisely your path experience and what it includes. Namaste, our brother.

The value of dichotomies

JANU: We are remembering our agreement to proceed with many projects, many collaborations, to bring balance to the dichotomies of life and those in the human experience. By ‘balance’ we mean equilibrium allowing for the dichotomies, the ranges of expression and experience to sustain each other for the purpose of providing opportunity for exploration, experience, and wisdom-gaining. These dichotomies, our brother, help maintain order, unity, and clarity of purpose. We see these challenges as a life force and the flow of life working together to provide a system of life with viability, endurance, and creativity.   Some call these dichotomies ‘good’ and ‘bad’ but they are all life and serve a larger purpose, larger than either one. What wisdom would you gain from a life with only one perspective, one direction, one course, one opportunity? Success is described by the outcome of your desires, your passions, and your choices.

All dichotomies are contained within the scope and breadth of life. The path you choose ultimately leads to a refinement of consciousness, depth of understanding, and creative genius. These discussions speak to the shadows of life cast by timeless reality. Being at peace opens the consciousness to the truth, the reality of being that can embrace everything. Walk gently through the fields of creation. Step gingerly to remain free to choose the next foothold, grateful always for the presence of life. Namaste, our brother. Walk with us as we walk with you.
