Who or what am I?

JANU: Identity, then, is a worthy journey in understanding and experience. The question “Who am I? What am I?” originates in the perceptions of physical identity. The words do not capture the reality of the larger existence.

“So, what words would capture this?” you ask. They would be words like ‘essential nature,’ ‘unlimited being,’ ‘peaceful embrace’ of any reality, ‘explorer and lover of life’—all of life. Someone who cherishes the essential nature of another, whether it be creature, sentient being, part of nature, or an entire world and beyond. An identity that cannot be identified but can be understood and experienced and shared.

This is your nature, and ours as well. Namaste.

More on the joy of awakening

JANU:    It is joyous to experience the freedom, the understanding, the intimacy with the Larger Life, and the physical life as well. Intimacy with all of life includes the physical life, filled with coexisting realities. The joy of awakening is the sense of sovereignty, of being whole, no longer frail and subject to the vagaries of unenlightened existence. Finding the loving nature of everything, including your own. Peace in the midst of change, everything in motion, which speaks to the permanence of life. The conflicts that ensue when one attempts to hold on to life as it is in the moment and not let it flow and be part of that flow. The freedom to be and experience change as a breath of fresh air, renewing, rejuvenating, liberating, revitalizing, and revealing. The joy of discovering and understanding and, above all, intimacy with the true nature of life.

Yes, there is joy to be had. Experiencing life is an adventure. What lies beyond the horizon, connecting with others in new ways, finding freedom together. Namaste.

Life allows all things. Choose wisely.

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.

Goals

JANU:    Goal-centered exploration is the theme here. “What is wise goal setting, then?” you ask. It is that which is in harmony with a growing consciousness of integrity. Exploring the truth of life. Self-observation and discernment. An openness to understanding and experiencing the nature of life and its   creations. The relationships between all of the elements of life and their integrity. The larger views of life, potential, destiny, achievements. Freedom of sovereignty and choice. A desire to serve and enrich life, meaning everyone and everything in it.

A worthy question for everyone: What are your goals in your life? How clearly to you understand them? What has been achieved up to this point, and how well do you understand these achievements and their potential? Life can appear as a grab bag, of sorts, of possibilities. The organization of these is lack of consciousness, wisdom, maturity, and understanding of that which engages them. Life is not linear or empirical. It is coexistent, simultaneous, and progressive. Even the consciousness of your body has goals of survival, well-being, service to the occupant, enriching life as it may, and living its integrity, and responding to the life patterns of the occupant.

Measuring all of this is through observation and experience of the results of these interactions and manifestations. That is the mirror of life. And, as with a mirror, life reflects you to see who you are, the results of your choices and interactions on every level. Acknowledge your coexistence and listen. Namaste.

Inner strength through conscious union

JANU:    With conscious union, challenges, obstacles, confusion, doubt have no power in the presence of our inner strength. Some understand this. Some experience it. Owning it as a conscious experience is more fulfilling. Applying it to the challenges of life, the opportunities, reveals its truth and endurance.

You ask, “What does strength mean, in this sense?” It means the maintenance of integrity, determination, experience and outcome. It means preparation for what is to come. It means enriching life and contributing to its evolution. It means peace and true power.

Many of the contrivances from human perception of life are the quest for power and peace, but are an inadequate substitute for conscious union with your True Nature. Realizing this is the path to freedom. Namaste.

Identify with life in motion

JANU: We are organizing that which comforts the ‘iliad’ in the psyche of individuals. By this we mean, that which refers to predisposition to doubt and speculation. The fundamental issue here is a strong conviction and faith in the legitimacy and the all-encompassing presence of the core principles of life. Determination based upon this principles, conviction and commitment to their unfolding and revelations.

These journeys call for such, no matter the circumstance, subject, or result. Put your attention upon ‘core nature.’ Life has been existing beyond time and is still present. Incarnations come and go, yet True Natures continue. Potential, revelation, manifestation, outcomes never cease. Hang your hat, so to speak, on the eternal flow of life, no matter the concern. Call on its presence to make things clearer, and for whatever is needed for the flow to continue to create.

We of the Brotherhood are mindful of these things. Be not identified with any form of limitation. Changes in direction or outcome are the opposite of limitation. Move with change. It is part of the flow of life and allows for re-creation. Change in every sense. The reality behind these is your strength, whether incarnate or not. There is always a solution, though it may not appear as what has existed before the change, you see. Identify with life in motion, for you are in motion. Namaste.

Honoring the so-called prophets

JANU: We are summarizing the focus and intent of Life to pursue expression. Part of the nature of this are the so-called prophets in human history. Each in their own way portending the different thrusts of life into realization, expansion, continuation. Each one has tapped into the nature of this, as do our journeys. Each of these share the nature of humanity and its purpose, its potential with a slightly larger view of life that includes the rest of humanity.

Setting each of these on a pedestal, so to speak, as unreachable or beyond the ken of their neighbors does a disservice to their core nature of service. Enlightenment being one of these. The evolution of humanity another. Realization of discoveries and the ownership of experience.

So see each of these in a new way, as a companion. Both journeying through life, serving in each one’s unique way and, of course, present as everyone is. United in the bond of True Natures. Time cannot separate you, only perception. They are emissaries of the Larger Life, as is everyone. Honor their service by fulfilling your own. Their truth that they lived is knowable. Namaste.

The fragility of human existence

JANU: Fragility is your inquiry. We of the Brotherhood speak to this issue of the fragility of existence. Why not look at it this way: Is a thought permanent? Its state of existence is not. Its essential nature is. So it moves with the flows and ebbs of life in motion.

Such it is with the physical existence. Its Nature is ongoing. Its manifestations are cyclic, inter-reacting, mutually influencing, modifying, re-creating. The fragility you speak of has to do with the flow of life, change, not its essential nature. Yes, even worlds collide, destroy each other, but the essential nature of existence still remains. Once again, the limited view and the larger view seem to contradict, but only from the smaller point of view.

So, when one tends to identify with physical existence, there enters into the consciousness the fear of the loss of consciousness, the loss of life. Life is not lost. Physical existence changes. Manifestations are not permanent, the ability to manifest is. So choose your identification with care, for the sense of identity becomes the so-called world of experience that you have chosen, with its parameters of existence.

Awakening to a larger identity, embracing the Larger Life, changes perspective about everything. You are not fragile. Your existence physically is. Namaste.

More on the True Nature

JANU:   Further instruction it is, further revelation as to the nature of life, the nature of being. Humanity is an extreme example, with so many diverse elements of development, seemingly chaotic on its march to awakening. Many seeming reversals, side trips, conflicts of interest, and brutality. But mixed in this is a desire for peace, love, discovery, service, family, and a future worthy of this.

So where does one stand in their relationship with all of this, that is sane, productive, supportive, innovative, creative? A growing foundation of conscious relationship with the qualities of the True Nature and the vast resources of life available through that Nature is a good beginning. What is greatness, then, other than the realization and expression of the divine that you are? The True Natures of each one are a projection of the nature of all of life, for these patterns exist from that resource. And all of these coexist as one.

Always refer to the larger view of the minutia of life. This brings balanced perspective and universal support. Stand in your truth and your integrity. Grow in the expression of these. Be truthful, patient, and loving, for in the larger view you coexist with everything and it with you. Namaste.

An identity of ‘being’

JANU:    We are surveying then your query into purpose of this incarnation and the memories. Recent events tell us that the organization of spiritual reference within the consciousness agrees with the postulate that all life is created equal, but what sense ‘equal,’ our brother? Equal in the sense of opportunity to be, to exist, to evolve in consciousness by way of the composite of life patterns, experiences.

The purpose of life is to be. Out of that comes creation, evolution, realized potential, fulfillment. Isolation due to the veil, different parameters of existence, builds content, diversity, and equilibrium throughout the system of life. Change is creation in motion. Wisdom is the foundation for choices. Life’s capacity to build upon itself seems without limit. There are cycles and orders in life, thresholds of change, parameters of existence, content and depth that go on and on. So one fulfillment is not defined by another. The reality of all of these is a much larger reality.

Now, this perception does not dull or mask each moment, each element of content, each expression. Life is vibrant and is beyond the limitations of entity identification, individualism. Can life know itself with unexpressed potential? Knowing has many forms. The answer to the question is still being fulfilled. An identity of ‘being’ transcends confusion and doubt and brings peace. Namaste, our brother.
