Journey into the light of who you are

JANU: We are summarizing the advantages of awakening to your True Nature. Let us begin by saying you have always been one but temporarily unconscious of it. As you gain wisdom into the nature of life and your own existence, you begin to perceive the benefits of merging, in consciousness, your incarnate life into the larger life that you are. This journey of awakening carries wisdom within it, taking nothing away from the nature of the human journey.

Now, awakening within incarnate life has its equivalence in the larger life as well. Experiencing the journey while incarnate teaches valuable realities through experience in discovery. This does not end when leaving incarnate life. It is only one step in the larger reality of discovering. Too often, the model of understanding only includes physical life, human identity, and some vague notion of spirituality, spiritual existence. The human experience is one piece of an immense puzzle picture of reality, rich though it may be, valuable though it may be. Awakening puts everything in perspective, gaining the wisdom, the maturity to refine the incarnate life, experience more of it or any other reality of discovery you may embark upon, whether incarnate or not. Even in the incarnate life, with the so-called veil in place, the inner passion and desire to discover more plays its role. For it is a fundamental pattern of life to evolve and expand, include more, have questions and find answers leading to more of the same. Awakening is the path of discovery, no matter where you are in your reality.

You ask, “What of health and well-being and the many deficiencies in this area in the incarnate life?” Awakening reveals to you, through insight and intuition, the cause and effect realities of choices, behavior, emotions, attitude, philosophies, passions, and well-being. How all of these are connected. When one is ill physically, it is more than a physical situation, you see, for the rest of you is connected and involved. Awakening reveals this. Not only the circumstance, the connections, but the resolution of these.

There is always a deeper and larger truth in any reality. Allow yourself to know this and employ it. There are more miracles, miraculous realities in the tapestry of life than you know. Why stumble in darkness when your inner light can show the way? As the website of this content suggests, journey into the light of who you are. Namaste.

Awakening 21: Progressing the path of awakening

JANU: For this evening’s journey of awakening, let us proceed with a discourse on progressions. Now, progressing a postulate, in this case the reality of awakening, allows for considerations to be creative in their design. The postulate includes a change in perspective toward incarnate existence and the human journey. Priorities expand to include the basic tenets of relationships. These tenets arguably persist in the face of customary preferences. One does not become obsessed with the minutia of life to the exclusion of the larger purpose, realizing that caring for others does not replace them taking care of themselves. The goal here is their freedom, their integrity, their ownership of their experiences, their sovereignty. These things contribute to the ensuring of their survival, their well-being, their happiness. The goal here, our brother, is to inspire, as you awaken, others to find their truth.

So as your awakening progresses, serve the progression of the integrity of others into their true freedom, and into the purpose of your own progressed awakening. Remember, one does not awaken alone, but with a sense of the larger family of life, whether they are incarnate or not. A progressed life sees potential outcomes and connection between all opportunities and achievements. Our progressions embrace the future from the clarity of the Now, for potential exists in this moment. Consider a progressed scenario on your journey of awakening that includes others, giving meaning to your own. Namaste.

Awakening 18: Creating and lifting the veil

JANU: The subject this evening has to do with the veil, as requested. Now, the origin of this, in the human experience, comes not only from the wisdom of the True Nature but those patterns of creation for the human journey, a contract of sorts between incarnating consciousness and the tradition of protocols for human incarnation. The reason for this has been stated more than once, having to do with focus and non-interference with gaining wisdom through service and experience while incarnate, without the distraction of larger realities that co-exist.

Now, the overcoming of the veil while incarnate has to do with protocols again. They being those that guide the consciousness while engaged in relationships and endeavors that call for greater insights and inspiration, not through aloof positioning in life, but direct engagement. These protocols are known through the True Nature, but the human tendency to propose striking bargains to gain advantage does not operate here. The truth of motivation, desire, and attitude are known, even as they form. As we have said before, there are no secrets. Freedom comes through service, our brother, with a giving nature and a love for life, the basic tenets of the flow of life.

Once again, understand this as process, not instantaneous change. You already live beyond the veil, for you are your True Nature, which is fully conscious. Continue to serve, learn, grow, gain wisdom, and engage more and more of life. The process of awakening continues. There is balance, order, and symmetry in the process of life. Embrace it. It has opportunity beyond your imagination, waiting for you to engage and become one with. Namaste.

Awakening 16: Obstacles to awakening

JANU: Let us survey the obstacles to awakening, most of which are self-imposed, for reason. Others are occasions of living the incarnate life: social pressures, the demands; timing of opportunities and challenges; awareness of possibilities; lack of courage, energy, and commitment. All of these can be overcome, for a more awakened state can be achieved in the midst of a challenge by application and desire. As far as self-imposed reasons go, the timing of the True Nature, based on achievements, is sacrosanct. But these reasons are always in your best interest, serving you and life itself, for the human journey has a purpose, as do you.

The challenges and the obstacles, if you would call them that, are part of the journey. They come with the territory, so to speak. They strengthen your wisdom, your resolve, and your capacities to embrace life. We’re not suggesting to prefer obstacles, but the mastership of them. The fundamental question here is: “What do you desire?” In time, more and more, the human you and your True Nature speak with one voice, clarity ensues, confusion gives way to purpose and meaning.

The larger life has challenges as well, our brother, but of a different order. But the isolation of the human experience, due to the veil, in the sense of isolation or separation, make the connection with the larger life seem obscure if non-existence. But ignorance is the theme here. The purpose of these journeys is to lessen this, give you a working premise to awaken to something more, returning to the state of being that has always been who you are.

The obstacles to awakening have never been permanent or fixed. Not remembering your awakened state does not deny its existence. Your human journey is very temporary. Make the most of it, whether conscious or not, but enhance your opportunities as you may through awakening. Namaste.

Awakening 2: We are stronger together

JANU: This second look at the miracles of awakening begins with insight into motivation. For how can you create change in your life if desire is not there, passion, the wonder? The incentive for this, at least in the beginning, is the current conditions of living in the incarnate life. Incarnate life is not inherently a negative experience. It can be quite miraculous, with one breakthrough after another of uplifting experiences.

Challenges and successes, yes, and even failures of a temporary nature can strengthen resolve, teach great lessons, reveal the nature of your life. “But to what end?” you might ask. It is to own these experiences, our brother, to make them viable elements of your lexicon of being, for, when applied to an awakening consciousness, they prepare one for new and more expansive adventures of wisdom and experience.

Repeating elements of life endlessly is an option, but how does that serve you? But for some, that’s what it takes to see the lesson with clarity and embrace change. The range of living experiences, understandings of involvements and evolvements is as fast as human consciousness chooses. For some, it appears to be a straight, linear path to awakening. For others, it seems to run in circles without end. And everything in between. It is all life, our brother. The choice is yours. The lessons are yours. The rewards are yours. Time and space do not cover these, but they are part of them.

Your experiences in life come from your desires, your interests, your passions, and, yes, your fears and apprehensions. Choices have results; awakening brings clarity to the results of choice, the opportunities, the rewards. So, awakening is not just the path to a perfect life, our brother, but to one of clarity for your choices. And what is perfection, then, but life’s ability to be anything and everything? So, you see, our brother, awakening is also the path to freedom, which includes relationships and the freedoms of others in service and example, inspiration.

As with any family, we are stronger together than apart, for we grow with each other, benefiting from everyone’s successes and the wisdom that comes from their challenges. So, welcome to awakening the larger life which is within you. Namaste.

Why do beings incarnate?

JANU: Many are motivated simply to explore more of life, the wisdom of understanding, the power to engage, the discovery of potential. And, yes, many pursue specific goals. But do not encourage others to do so, for there are many challenges and not all journeys are straightforward, and can run in circles. The lowering of the veil can be problematic; the lifting of said veil requires much for some. The contract made with the self holds fast, but many in what you call the Larger Family of Life assist with the recovery of consciousness. All involved grow from the experience and this is understood before incarnating.

Your particular reason for this journey, our brother, has to do with a so-called ‘fight for life’ in a distant reality, for incarnating can be a far journey. Living is a larger issue than just existing in the physical. The incarnate journey is far larger than physical survival. It is the survival and expansion of consciousness, bringing larger life, more of life, to the realities of the existence. What you struggle for and achieve here and there, seeming to stumble from time to time, is to enrich life incarnate. And make no mistake, our brother. What is gained will serve well on other journeys into life’s potential.

Probe the depths of the mysteries of life. Seek their revelations. And embrace your own nature as you do. The current incarnate experience does not define you, for its full potential is far from realized. And your potential is larger still, whether incarnate or not. Your question is valid, but what answer can contain it all? For it is still being realized. Probe the mysteries of life, whether apparent or not. Ask the questions and listen to life’s answer. Enjoy the journey. Share it as you may. Namaste.

Pure Beingness

JANU: Beingness, an understanding of reality that transcends time and space, transcends concepts, perceptions, interpretations, and illusions. Beingness remains to be seen, for what is doing the seeing, our brother, but the elements of being finding their way in the reality of being.

Now, what does this mean? It means that your True Nature is a being in the sense that all that you experience in any reality is the essence of your True Nature. You are the life you live, and the lives you meet. For beingness, our brother, is a connection with life in whatever manner it is. Allowing your awareness, your consciousness to embrace your reality on this foundation of understanding, without effort, reveals your beingness that includes everything. How can it not be so? What is oneness, if not this?

Beingness has no borders, no real and not real, no life and not life. This flies in the face of human perception of individuality, separation from other realities. Uniqueness, yes. Separation identity, very limited, and does not relate to Pure Being. How can you be part of Life and not the rest of it? Universal and unlimited consciousness, the true freedom to be, limited by nothing yet at one with everything.

You ask, “How does one function in incarnate life on this basis?” Because consciousness, our brother, and beingness is not ‘one thing and not another.’ It is incarnate life, in every respect, and the rest of life as well. It is completely inclusive, eternal. Time and space are only elements of the larger life. No secrets. Unlimited consciousness. No ‘not attunement and attunement,’ you see, for in beingness one has always been connected.

This is the focus we encourage for understanding and service to Life. Namaste.

Understanding more of your complete being

JANU: We are summarizing, if you will, that which portends to be an alliance within the True Nature of the elements of consciousness. These elements we speak of are the foci for the realities of being that you are. These alliances are powerful indeed, for they bring about, they bring to the fore neutral power. Not power in the human sense of a force for control, but power in the sense of harmony, cooperation, manifestation, creativity, and a more complete consciousness. The human ego is allowing the manifestation of the True Nature, a loving relationship in a reality of oneness. The incarnate life takes on deeper meaning and purpose, the destiny of everyone, in their own way, in their own time, in their own choosing.

The expansion of consciousness is not separate from you. It is you. What do you know of your being before incarnating, you see, and between sojourns? It still is, whether incarnate or not, waking to the fuller truth and reality of who you are. Some may prefer ignorance rather than the responsibility and the true power of knowing, and that is their choice. But the freedom of wisdom is wonderful indeed.

These are journeys, our brother, into a larger life, and they serve well. Namaste.

The larger Family of Life

JANU: We understand the motivation to awaken, to evolve, to contribute, to serve. These are, shall we say, desires of the spirit within the incarnate experience. But not limited to that. Difficult for many to understand that Life itself has these desires by way of its progeny. Individual movement towards achievement is not just individual, you see, but the threads of Life woven continuously.

Many humans tend to perceive life in terms of the timetable of sojourn, but in time, through awakening, see life in a larger way, more intimately, enriching the perspective by way of appreciating the endless motion of life. Achieving this perspective softens the perceived pressure of the limitations of time and incarnate energy. The pressure of living gives way to the effortless flow of ongoingness. Effortless in the sense of being alone in one’s desire to experience life. Being part of the system of life, enriching it, being enriched by it, brings balance to one’s worth or perception of it.

Fundamental principles of living are the foundation for endless journeying, discovery, and fulfillment. We have taken, and will take many more, wondrous adventures. With a maturing perspective, capable of much more. The Family of Life is vast and includes far more than physicality, but in wondrous ways it is all connected and communicates. You’ll awaken to an identity that includes the human experience but by no means limited to it. Welcome to the Family of Life, which you have always been a part of. We are one. Namaste, our brother.

Incarnation and the veil

JANU:    There is, for humanity, this experience of rising above the circumstances of incarnate life to manage them more wisely, to understand their truth, to be the master you are destined to be by nature of who you are. Identity shifting is still a challenge. Personality-ego, physical body, pain and suffering, limited understanding and command of life are not who you are. They are self-imposed limitations on freedom of expression while incarnate. We would have you see this. Once again, the common experience but not the normal one.

You ask, “Why, if the larger reality is who I am, don’t I seem to possess it?” You choose, our brother, to walk this journey with the veil, heightening your sensitivity to, appreciation of, and intimate understanding of the wisdom of life itself. It is one thing to be, yet another to realize the potential of the beingness. Walking the incarnate life with the journey of remembering and repossessing, so to speak, your potential brings great wisdom and a tempered relationship with the innate power of the life that you are.

Relationships, service, struggle, victory hint at the range of the experience and the wisdom that it gains. Why not embrace it? It is the game of life you have chosen, with many victories to come and many victories already gained. Life becomes richer for it, for everyone can draw upon the wisdom everyone gains. Your experiences are not yours alone, and neither are your challenges. The same is true for your victories, your wisdom, your love of life.

Journeys in consciousness touch everyone, bringing confidence that their journeys they have not recognized as such are wonderful and develop them as they may. We all journey together, no matter how brief they are or how profound they seem. Grow in your understanding and experience of the meaning of oneness, not just you one with life but life one with you. Be aware and find peace. Namaste.
