JANU: Personal identity is a mixed bag, for varying degrees of identity and types of identity exist among people. To identify as one race or another can even fly in the face of physical reality. Many causes are fueled by senses of identity. Conflicts between genders, races, economic status, realities, politics, romance, even artistic abilities are fueled by different shapes of identity. And these change, providing a myriad of interpretations and expressions.

So the question becomes “Who are you, in this moment, in this circumstance, in these relationships?” Probably wise to say that your identity is what you choose in the moment, based upon personal agendas, social pressures, degree of awakening and understanding. So, grow in the freedom to identify as you choose, reaping those benefits or challenges, free to experiment with realities of identification, testing the waters socially and introspectively.

“Who are you?” then is a question for the moment. And what are the complex identities and their relationships that exist in that moment? Are you identified with your experiences or more towards your True Nature? And what is that? What’s the reality of it in your life, in your consciousness? What levels of familiarity exist in conscious relationship?

Much to explore in the world of identity. Find wisdom, richness, peace and joy in the quest. Namaste.

Building blocks of intimacy & identity

Human Potential & the Larger Life

JANU: We are foundation laying once more on our journey of awakening to the Larger Life. What meaning then can be gleaned from this journey?

It is a larger expression in the mastering of the incarnate life for, without this, mastership is incomplete. For they are one, coexisting, interrelated, holistic in nature, inseparable. Only in perception are they separated. Focusing on the incarnate life by way of the veil brings intimacy and identification with an experience. The same applies in the Larger Life. Intimacy and identification are some of the building blocks to a larger expression of one’s Nature.

This is normal ‘beingness’ but not that common yet. But humanity is moving in this direction. More and more unlimited as experiences and understanding deepen and broaden. Incarnate life is part of the Larger Life. Giving up on it is not an option. It will always be a part of who you are, for you are embued with the experience and the wisdom gained. Relationships matter. They form bonds, chains of connection, find expression in other realities and venues of life, including the incarnate life.

Intimacy and identity with life opportunities are profound connections on the path of mastery. Embrace everything masterfully. Yes, even your integrity is evolving. Live your life more fully every day. Discover and experience what that means. Own it all, which is a never-ending quest, for life is evolving—all of it. Namaste.

JANU: Transformation the key, then, in awakening. What does self-transformation appear as?

A more balanced and happier physical body, to begin with. Peace of mind. Optimism. A peaceful relationship with the flow of life. Harmonious creativity. A joy in the so-called small things in life. Rejoicing in the happiness of others. Empathy and understanding for all the creatures of the Earth. An expanding identity with life beyond the self. The realization of unlimited potential. Co-creativity. The realization that life itself is transforming continuously. Understanding everything in new ways, at greater depth, and many perspectives. Being conscious as Life that is inclusive beyond human identity. Being free to transform everything about you as you choose. Loving life more fully.

Transformation begins whenever you choose, and for as long as you choose. Journey in freedom. Namaste.

JANU: Service this evening has to do with the freedom to be. Now, let us examine this closely, for what does this truly mean? Being, a reality, encompasses or embraces the Source of Life as an agent for expression, of manifestation, and to be whatever you choose. Now then, the path of discovery of awakening broadens your awareness of the possibilities of choice. Realize this, then, that those are possibilities you are free to be. So, while one is in the embrace of a current expression in their being, in time one must realize that this is only one possibility and to be another expression of life one must shift identity and embrace their freedom. One might consider that life has a finite number of possibilities for being. This is not so because life is evolving and realizing potentials yet unrealized, yet aware of, yet expressed. So the freedom we speak of is true freedom. So, as you explore your consciousness and these possibilities, do so without identifying as a human being, for that is only one possibility. Allow yourself to embrace freedom as a reality without limitation. And one expression of freedom need not resemble any other. What it has in common is the True Nature of life, and that is evolving.

So, our service this evening is a growing awareness of the presence of true freedom, unlimited possibilities, and allowing any one of them to be part of your consciousness and to flower. Now, when one observes the journey of the human being from this understanding, one can see the confinements that direct the consciousness into the framework of that reality. Freedom allows this but does not require it. One may engage any freedom for the duration they choose, and the elements of manifestation that give it structure. So, as you become more aware, your consciousness is capable of simultaneous levels of awareness and involvement and realization. No longer limited to one focus at a time. Multiple realities coexisting reveal possibilities not viewed from any one focus, you see, and, to some degree, synergism takes place.

So let us explore this reality of freedom and the role it plays in life and awakening. Namaste.

JANU: Identity is the key here, is it not? For we all belong to one truth: the resolution of being, the profound oneness, the One composed of many, the ‘vesica picses,’ the Holy Grail, the path to oneness in consciousness and identity, the merging of all, the balance of peace, the resolution of potential, the intimacy of knowing, the service of life to life, the freedom to be. Conscious union. Namaste.

Service: Façades

Comments Off on Service: Façades

Service

freedom, identity, Service, true peace

JANU: What we serve then this evening is the peeling back of a layer of façade that brings us closer to true identity. And how does someone do this, without first recognizing or identifying what a façade really is? Most façades have to do with social consciousness, how you appear to others and their impression of you. A truer freedom of being is a lessening of this identification as a result of social consciousness. Serving others does not require them to approve of you or anyone else. The question becomes “Do you approve of you?” Once again, to inspire another to let go of a façade, your example goes a long way.

Why choose façades at all? What is the reward: to gain stature in the presence of others; to impress; to hide your own fears, self-doubts and, to some, ignorance or lack of wealth? One’s estate in life is not truly measured with impressions and influence, for these things inspire a lack in others, lowering confidence and self-esteem. When a moment of honesty in the appearance of your True Nature, unguarded, pure, at peace, and loving, inspires these in others, that they find their strength from within and not the façade, you see. Introspection here is a good thing.

What façades does one live by? It is a good question. What social advantage gained has any depth or endurance or true peace? There is always the fear that others will discover what lies behind the façade, you see. This does not bring you peace or balance and equilibrium throughout your being. The façades easily become one’s identity and their true identity withdraws further and further until the confusion of façades remains, a scenario for depression and emptiness.

So turn the corner and let them go. Discover them for their emptiness and turn your attention to the peace and joy, the strength and freedom that has always been there. Radiate honesty, openness, and appreciation of what lies within everyone you meet. And your Light will know theirs. There are many façades but only one you, one identity, one life. Namaste.

Collective Service

Human Potential & the Larger Life

JANU: Shifting identity includes moving from a sense of ego that is in some way superior to another to an ego that is at one with the larger collective of life, committed to service. Now, the service we speak of is the promotion of life, the promotion of opportunity for the expression of potential. This service congeals in the form of creation, bringing about spearheads, if you will, of unique pursuits that spawn many more. A collective in service to life brings about the transformation of mayhem into constructive purpose.

Now, collectives occur in groups of a few to groups that include everyone, for all of potential is synergistic, so the few and the many exist under the umbrella of Life and coexist in this way. Aspire to serving life in this way. You and your Nature are partners in this. And, yes, you are loved, as you love in return. Namaste.

Human Potential & the Larger Life

JANU: Your True Nature is the authority for being and is who you are, human perceptions notwithstanding. The expanding individual identity into the larger reality of your being is a return to freedom. The True Nature creates the veil to incarnate a portion of its identity, of its nature. A thing created can be uncreated or modified. The creation always returns to its creator.

Individual human identity expands in the direction of universal consciousness. Peaceful harmony with the creative forces and the Family of Life rests with the intuitive nature of your true being. Struggle is replaced with unlimited and natural achievement, unending discovery. The service element of this grows as well, a natural part of your True Nature and the Larger Life. We are on this journey as one, meaning all that we are. Namaste.

JANU: We are at peace in the flow of life. And what grander peace is there? How magnificent each one is, yet unaware. Rich then, beyond words, beyond limited perceptions, beyond confusion, beyond ignorance.

Experience a sense of richness having nothing to do with material wealth or human power, perceptions. Experience the freedom of richness. Experience the intimacy of conscious connection and union with any part of life your attention is upon. The richness of memories of all experiences from all sojourns, whether incarnate or not. Not only rich with blessings but the richness of sharing them, loving the beauty of each one’s nature into the freedom of their own.

The true power of peace is freedom to be. All of life coexists, including the so-called individual. Co-creation and co-existence. Diversity and oneness coexist, unique expressions of oneness.

Human Potential & the Larger Life

collective consciousness, diversity, human potential, identity, larger life

JANU: We are enumerating once more the need for collective conditioning of the human psyche for larger explorations of life while involved with the Earth venue. What we promote here is the beginning of transition into something larger than human-centered consciousness, restoring, then, the embrace of larger realities.

So if not human-centered consciousness, our brother, then what? Your interest in exploring other cultures on other worlds is in this direction and we concur. Exploring life beyond current identity is revelatory and proceeds along the lines of an open and fluid identity, allowing for intimacy with more than a limited sense of self. What’s in store for these explorations is a growing confidence in the more eternal nature of life, the ongoingness of life beyond sojourns.

Human consciousness has been, in some ways, imprisoned and obsessed with a smaller world. How can self-esteem be based upon limitation and still evolve and grow? Explore the sense of life within you, unlimited life that reaches into the breadth of its own Nature, which is still growing. Perpetual existence is not in physical form, our brother, but in the collective consciousness of diverse life.
