Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

JANU:   Exploring the Earth, as you put it, is a task that can consume many sojourns. Earth is a consciousness beyond current human understanding; humans tend to perceive based only on their current knowledge and experience. They are their role model for appreciating counterparts to their existence. Consider the Earth as made up of water, atmosphere, firmament, systems, countless expressions of life and is evolving, for the life forms are evolving. And they and the Earth are one, co-dependent, mutually influential, and mutually challenging.

How does one model the consumption of resources while all life involved benefits? Survival drives much of human consciousness, as with other life forms as well. But consumption not governed with wisdom can lead to self-destruction. There are those of human existence who have striven to return balance in the presence of consumption, for sustainability of the evolution of life. It involves some sacrifice, some limitation, and sensitivity to conditions. They respect life and honor its fragility, and embrace adaptability to changes. This is true for many worlds. Some relationships more successful than others. A growing sensitivity and awareness of reality supports survival for the purpose of creation and evolution.

The forms of life are not permanent. They are in motion, as is the human form as well. Physicality can take many forms. It has, and will continue to. Physicality is evolving, as is consciousness. One can get obsessed with mastering elements of these changes and lose sight of a larger, more complex reality that is fundamental to continuation; therefore, succumbing to an isolated identity serves refinement of a focus. But with this perspective of interactions and the results of these in the Larger Life, there are those who master identity, not to the exclusion of refinement of each focus. Their consciousness is open to an expanding life in motion. They are explorers leading the way. Everyone’s destiny has a wide range of potential. Each one chooses and then changes their choice, as conditions and opportunities warrant. Understanding the Earth includes all of this, and so much more. 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.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

JANU:    Society, then, evolves. It also devolves. The balance between the two is determined by collective and individual potential. Now, manifestations of the two are a driving force for each. In general, life’s potential is to continue, self-enrich. “Now, what does enrichment look like?” you ask.  With the current human consciousness, it is modeled individually for both selfish and benevolent motivation. The balance between the two can be marginalized by circumstance. Individual and collective influences move the needle in different directions. Evolution has a potential of both directions of influence finding common ground, and this is achieved by influence from the True Natures.

Appraising both sides of a coin can reveal its nature. Such it is with the human condition. When you merge the two influences in society and individually, something more is revealed. Some might see this as destiny. But some still live in confusion, favoring one influence over another.

So the question is asked, “What is meant by enrichment?” Potential, peace, harmony, re-creation, change, renewal, and new beginnings. So, the lesson for this journey is an insightful observation and grasp of both sides of the coin, so to speak, and what it can reveal. Looking for harmony, coordination, and cooperation gives the coin meaning and potential for enrichment. Namaste.

Elements of successful coexistence

Comments Off on Elements of successful coexistence

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, ,

JANU:    Understanding the nature of life expression, no matter the reality, includes coexistence. And the nature of coexistence is the expressions of life, mutually beneficial. Now, in the midst of this, the times change, evolution appears to evolve through the dissolution of certain expressions for the purpose of re-creation in new ways. A limited view is that this is destruction, but in the larger view, it is change, creativity through reassignment of resources. The building of a building in its materials involves consuming resources to create something new. This is Life in motion and existence is re-created to evolve into new expressions with diverse potentials and opportunities for their realizations. And the march goes on. From limited perceptions, it is a challenge to perceive this dance of life as positive. Coexistence does not mean status quo. It means the evidence of life expression evolving simultaneously.

Human consciousness has a tendency to want to hold on to these expressions of life for stability, predictability. This is an illusion. Adapting to change and evolution is a powerful way to coexist. So, self-examination is worth while. Adaptability to change is security for ongoingness. Successful change is a continuation of creative expression and adaptability. All of the elements of coexistence are in motion. Be open to the coexistence of an individual adaptation on each one’s unique journey. Be attuned to collective reality, including your own. Namaste.

Comments Off on Being at peace is liberating

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU:   We are pleased once more to bring to the fore that which presents itself as Life, the source of being, the force of creation and evolution. Let it be announced that there comes with this an implied and suggested and encouraged obligation to embrace your own Nature, which is at one with Life. Resisting this opportunity only leads to a delay but, in the larger reality of Life, time is a perception, Life omnipresent, ongoing, eternal.

Endure, if you must, your choices in life. Learn from them. Become wiser. See them as opportunities to become more conscious. Grow in your love and respect for your own Nature. Rewards are countless. The opportunities are to marvel at. You are the road sign to all the paths in life from which to choose. Grow in your perception of these opportunities. Experience the life that you are.

In many ways, others mirror you but unique in their way of interpretation of choices, for it takes all of life to understand all of life and the changes to come. Can you not see that all of life is connected, no matter the diversity or uniqueness? Everyone is your partner, in some way, and that relationship changes as you both evolve and the opportunities are presented to awaken.

Being at peace removes preconceptions, limited biases, misinterpretations, and delays you have chosen. Be at peace, which is a powerful and liberating state of consciousness and being. Namaste.

A growing identity

Comments Off on A growing identity

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU:    Absorbing, day by day, a larger identity, a larger reality, a larger perception of life, all of life. Yes, time and distance are third dimensional perceptions of reality but they are limited in the Larger Life. Allow the perception of timelessness and the perception of omnipresence. Linger in this.

This seems to fly in the face of the perceived reality of third dimensional universe, but Life is larger than that. Only a parameter of third dimensional existence. No beginning and no end—coexistence. Let these take hold of your identity, your experience, your perceptions, your understandings.

So you see, questions and answers are connected. Perceptions and understandings are connected. Observations and experience are connected. Life in motion and evolution are connected. Life, from one moment to the next, has changed. Evolution and realization of potential. There will always be more to become. Namaste.

Comments Off on The Larger Life

Other worlds

, , , , ,

JANU:    There are conditions in life that call for a perspective on a scale that seems absurd to most. These conditions prevail and become rewarding challenges, not only for those who accept them but for the expressions of life, all life. Serving the Earth for many would seem to be presumptuous, but the Earth is part of the larger opportunity for supporting the evolution of Life, not only for other worlds but much larger realities as well. Physical existence of the universe is one of many universes, and there are realities of life that are more subtle and diverse. Being conscious and more in touch with the Larger Life brings about changes in one’s perspective and relationship with everything.

This seemingly minute existence has potential beyond the imagination of most. Reflections of time, space, size, distance, and expansion have their reality but also limited. Identity becomes a challenge as well. The appreciation and embracing of an evolving identity, from the personal to the impersonal, is in the same order of the Larger Life which includes everything. So what makes one reality more important than another? It depends upon where you stand in your perception of life. Judging realities by importance is a limitation in perspective.

So, as we explore Life, and are inspired to serve it, we do so not as a separate observer but as one with Life itself and all of its realities. Once again, this would seem presumptuous to most but their perspectives and realities of consciousness have value and importance for all of these are part of Life. Understanding oneness, experiencing it, collective realities, relationships, their origins, their potential and their manifestation is an identity in consciousness and experience. The phrase “Larger Life” is ever present, as is what it represents. Namaste.

Comments Off on The meek shall inherit the Earth

Other worlds

JANU:    Worlds go through cycles of existence. They decline as others rise. The Earth is in decline in some ways. The peace we speak of is undeniable. For it to dominate a world, it must have opportunity to blossom. No longer just a dream but roots in the culture. The creatures of Earth are ready to respond to the energy creations of civilization. “The meek shall inherit the Earth” refers to this. The levels of anger and frustration are born of decline in confidence of the power of peace. Interpretation of power is limited.

Humanity’s journey does not consciously include the Larger Life, or peace, creativity, oneness, mutual love and support, true freedom to be. These are the norm, but not common. The destruction of worlds is part of nature through the evolution of resources. The re-creation and expression of life in motion seem to contradict this, but life in motion is nature, whose nature is change.  

Express it in this way. A larger, more intimate appreciation of life changes perspective. With intuition and insight guiding the way, no longer the need to blindly stumble into the future, but to realize potential as a consciously larger system of life. Humanity’s potential, as with other species on other worlds, has its beauty. As each one sees this, their commitment to the beauty of life becomes a way of living.

So let us not become angry or frustrated at the destructive elements of civilization, but choose to see clearly and find the beauty of potential. Life is larger than destructive emotions and perspectives. Choose the Larger Life and all it can be. Namaste.

Comments Off on Probing the reality of the Larger Life

Other worlds

, , , , , , ,

JANU:   Probing the reality of the Larger Life is returning from the depths of ignorance, not by fault but by the nature of the journey. The freedom of experiencing the presence of the Larger Life brings gratitude, confidence, and fulfillment of discovery of your Nature, the nature of everything. The quest to explore other worlds is part of the quest to remember to become more conscious, to recover that which seemed lost. Revealing the True Nature and owning it is like exploring another world, for as you explore the Larger Life we are exploring our nature. No longer the separate identity of ego-personality and local experience.

There is an intimacy with the realities of life that has been softened due to the protocols of incarnating. Awakening is like being truly alive once more. Not only being conscious of, but being conscious as. (LINK to More on C of, C as)  There is joy in this, peace, freedom, fulfillment that continues to evolve. These qualities, experiences are always available whether incarnate or not. They are part of the true heart’s desire to experience and understand.

Without these things, the challenges of living seem to overcome and the frustrations and anger in so many clouds the view. A grand service to yourself and others is these revelations. Yes, even anger and the like are opportunities to find and employ solutions.

Understanding these parts of the human psyche can be liberating and empowering. Love these qualities, which are your Nature, into your life, into your day, into the moment. Allow these, for they are yours. Namaste.

Comments Off on Friends on other worlds

Other worlds

, , , ,

JANU:   Behaving normally, when considering the path of enlightenment that proceeds. There is wisdom gained, wisdom to be had, and wisdom to be expressed. Potential, in a way, is a construct based on what has been gained and evolving potential. Both evolving, both intertwined, as it is with so many. Life is richer than most are aware of.

We suggest at this time a review reaching into the corners of memory. Much of what you reach for is a revisit. This serves our purposes to more greatly fulfill potential. Visiting other worlds, observing their cultures, their achievements, their potentials is a pattern you have enjoyed before, before this sojourn. You have friends, if you will, on many worlds for your communications with them have established shared journeys.

One such exists in the temperate zone of its solar system. Their pace of living resembles your own current existence. Your visit to this planet, the Earth, was born of an idea shared with another that a visit would deepen your understanding and experience of that of your friend. You have communicated with this friend, at times, for review, shared insights. This has brought Light to both worlds, as each struggles to evolve.

Your journey here has not been wasted. It has been productive. Service is not always physicality, but more then nuances of consciousness, life patterns, manifest potential through shared understandings. Do not discount the merit of this. It is possible to share with the many you have known, and still know. The shared warmth of mutual understanding is the pathway to awakening. Honor your friendships, even at this time. Namaste.
