The nature of reality

JANU:    Life in motion is function and life functions. The imperative for this lies in the reality of the distortion of equilibrium in the generative phases of creation. We examine these for the purpose of the evolution of understanding into the nature of reality.

Identification, your experience with elements of reality, tends to obscure these understandings as they seem unrelated and out of sight. Eventually questions arise as to the nature of reality. One asks the purpose. The beingness of potential is an incentive. Even though form does not seem to explain causal reality, they are as one. Allow your consciousness to experience coexistence of the subtlest and grossest realities. There lies the solution to the challenge of relatability. Challenging an evolving perspective, a growing understanding and beingness. Not just being an element of reality, but one with its Nature. Allow this to unfold in harmony with the capacity to change. Namaste.

The nature of wisdom

JANU:   Enormous strides are achieved through application of wisdom. That wisdom evolves with the rest of life. Experimentation through experience brings understanding that supports wisdom. What is wisdom, then, when considered as a guide for embracing life and its potential?

Wisdom supports outcome, the nature of which is the result of choices. Wisdom is knowing a measure of how creation works, how change works, how evolution works, how life moves. Wisdom brings decision to be made. It can be challenging, depending upon preferences. And wisdom can examine these as well. Clarity of thought and perception can be an illusion with a lack of wisdom. The nature of what is being considered pattern-matches with the applicable wisdom to be employed. Wisdom has narrative, not just prior to decision-making but during the engagement of life as potential unfolds. So, employ wisdom as a continuous reality.

Discernment is a byproduct of wisdom. They go hand in hand. So, how does one observe wisely? By opening to possibilities without preference. Perceiving life not only as it is but as it can be, in any direction, simultaneously. Wisdom gains clarity, as does observation, when listening and observing more than speaking. Profound listening on many levels is a worthy achievement, not just with the ears but with all that you are.

One can touch life directly with faculties beyond a current awareness. Allow these to reveal themselves as your life touches other life. Be conscious as more than you’re aware of. Be conscious as the Truth of Life, carefully and with guidance from within. Condemn nothing. Embrace the beauty of life and its eternal nature. The life that you are is in harmony with more of life than you know. Namaste.

What is awakening?

JANU: Where is the passion, then, to awaken? The joy of discovery, the freedom of understanding, the love of service, the enrichment of life? Awakening is a natural process, available to everyone. “Awakening to what?” many may ask. The Truth of Life, of one’s existence, of relationships, each other and the rest of life.

Awakening brings peace through revelation. It brings harmony to all the systems of life. No longer contradicting each other, but working together in harmony, every one of them evolving. There are systems of life beyond the physical body. Awakening touches them as well. Life without this is like a dream state, full of confusion, contradictions, misrepresentations, misinterpretations. Life can be exhausting, instead of invigorating.

True power is life in motion, evolving. What is the connection, the coexistence of everything? What is the reality? Who are you? What are you? What can you be? Deciding to know is a step on the path of awakening, without preferences in the face of the Truth of Life.

Simple joys, if only for a moment, have far reaching effects. They are a wonderful foundation for awakening. Find them in your own life. Inspire them in others. Namaste.

Bringing Light into the consciousness

JANU:   Simple solutions in a complex society, as we observe the struggles of civilization. They find little peace in their struggles. Their designs of relationships are based upon control of others by means that do not bring harmony and benefit to all. The so-called leaders have yet to see the lasting power, that never takes but only gives, as a solution. They consume without replenishment. They seek advantage over others, yet there are those with strong desire to find love and give it. Physical survival is all important, as identity of only being human persists.

Bringing Light into the experience of consciousness of humanity is a living thing when it is rooted in universal love. Life cares for life with eternal patience, a growing wisdom, and a joy in every achievement. Allow your identity to expand with memory, insight, freedom, and True Peace, bringing life patterns into harmony and clarity. There is nothing to fear. Be at one with your True Nature and Life in motion, ever-changing, renewing. Namaste.

Elements of a blessing for humanity

JANU:    Assembling the elements of the request for blessing for humanity in the elections, one must assume responsibility for their own contribution. Giving life to these blessings is enhanced by the reality of one’s own concerns for wise outcome. Yet the elements of these blessings are the True Nature’s relationship to each one, each being, each person, for the True Natures are involved with the formation of these blessings. A gathering of the Masters of Life and their collective wisdom.

But one can sense a love for the future in present humanity. This is the true nature of a blessing, for love brings peaceful harmony, coexistence and coordination as well as awakening. Loving change into being inspires these qualities. The words are a beginning, but by no means the ultimate building blocks. A blessing that is real has real love as its source, which is in harmony with love in motion. So, hold humanity in the Light and see it shining in the Natures of each one. Namaste.

Freedom to explore

JANU: Analysis must take on a new name to be released from limited thinking and tradition.  The freedom to be embraces that which comes as intuition, dynamic life, and the promise of freedom. Freedom to be more. Freedom to explore. Conscious oneness.

So what does one explore, in harmony with these opportunities? The meaning of Life? Its potential? Current consciousness? Focused exploration, the pulse of Life and its potential. Life expresses countless forms, compositions, and seeming contradictions. One speaks of ‘isness,’ beingness, the arc of Life. These terms include so much more than ‘conscious of’ or ‘conscious as.’ Incarnate consciousness is consumed with, patterned deeply with the sense of time, sequence of realities, order, patterns, and cadence of life. Simultaneous existence, purposes, opportunities, understandings, consciousnesses, relationships are a step beyond.

As we continue these adventures into the Larger Life, one does not dismiss any of the life leading up to this. The Larger Life is just more inclusive, less restricted, biased, preferred, isolated in any way. Enjoy the freedom of limitlessness in thinking, experiencing, understanding, and service. See all of the vehicles of Life in this way. And, yes, even the physical for the duration of its expression.

Explore wholesomeness, balance, vitality, evolution, presence. Be present in understanding, discovery, engagement, expression. Find peace as a reality. Allow it to be and become. Greet all of Life in this way. It is a foundation for understanding and being the Truth of Life. Namaste.

Observation

JANU:    Surveyance or observation can have different tones to it, and styles. One can be observation without engagement. Another can be engagement, with more experience, intimacy. We have known for some time that the form of observation can change appropriate to the moment of that being observed. The consciousness of the moment, of the observer and that observed, have a potential for a disciplined approach that includes mutual benefit and even service to Life. This is true when observing others, whether human or not, any living creature, even worlds. Patience is the key here, as well as motivation, desires.

Researching Life can be dominantly intellectual. Intimacy in observation allows for empathy. A structure to service ensues with natural qualities. Team effort with a multiple of servers. The objects of observation bring unity and harmony that progresses with the flow of life. Becoming integrated consciously with the composite of Life brings depth to the experience. But change is Life in motion, evolving. So what does one hang on to then, if the illusion of stability is entertained?

Being comfortable with change and those patterns in motion gives confidence in outcomes, opportunities, and potential. Exploring Life in motion reveals much. Consider this when opening to a growing understanding and intimacy with Life, including your own. Namaste.

What is discarnate life like?

JANU:   We are remembering when the discarnate life was the dominant consciousness, focus. Freedom to travel, so to speak, in simultaneous directions, so to speak. We had an entourage of like-minded, who began each journey with collective consciousness of experience and wisdom, to be opened to a more complete consciousness of the reality explored. Time and distance not realities to impede the duration of these journeys reaching into the duration of interest.

Personal identity was unlike the incarnate life. Not easy to describe in incarnate terms. Identity was based upon collective experience, understanding, perceptions. Identity with and is the depth and nature of life patterns matched and created. Vitality varied with involvement. Contributions to life were through connections. They still are. Shared consciousness, understanding, and life patterns formed relationships and still do. The veil has focused, and limited in some ways, involvements on a conscious level, but only temporarily, for the duration of the journey.

The sense of time and distance has limited patience and the drive to accomplish quickly. Productivity becomes imperative.  Timelessness  is seen as laziness but can be more productive, so to speak, in expansion of engagement and understanding. Sense of purpose has more depth and scope, but all of this is acceptable and in harmony with the Nature of Life. Namaste.

Happiness

JANU:   The fundamentals of life achieved recently in understanding—the realization of potential, wisdom, conscious union—can contribute to happiness because of the harmony with the flow of life. Finding peace and happiness in the moment is achievable without struggle or effort by letting go of the structures in life that interfere: greed, lust, violence, avarice, sense of depravation or unworthiness. Harmony and happiness, peace, are natural gifts of being. Feeling worthy with a birthright brings confidence, peace of mind, and openness to the flow of life filled with gifts and opportunities. The systems of physical life, thoughts and emotions, thoughts of giving and uplifting have always been there and others have always been ready and willing to exchange them. Each day is filled with opportunity to be kind, even to those who don’t seem to respond similarly. “Humankind”* a powerful sentiment to live by. Namaste.

Being conscious as Life 

JANU: ‘Realizing’ is the key word here. When does one realize something they didn’t before, or that they had forgotten and misplaced? What is the key to awareness and understanding? It is to embrace reality, to own it. That it lives within your experience, that it has byproducts in your life, and that it enriches another. And what leads to these? Life realizing potential.

Creativity has a spark, an initiator or an initiating. A magic of life is creativity. So what is the source of this with a quest to explore? Imagination, wonderment. A thirst for one person could be a memory for another, but it is no less a wonderment, no less magical, and no less a blessing.

We all need each other. It takes all of us to explore life. To see each other in this way: What do you know that I don’t, yet? What has your life included that you are moving on from? What have I forgotten over many sojourns, and between them?

Life is a teacher. It is how it expands, enriches itself. It takes all of life—every nuance, every motion—to embrace, retain, and expand upon its journey. Every moment has value. Recognize enrichment for what it is. Be grateful for the opportunity to discover and improve your life and someone else’s, whatever that looks like.

Being at peace is a life in harmony and in motion. Be conscious of its presence, its vitality, its motion, and its love. Namaste.
