Exploring Life, The NOW

, , , ,

JANU:     We are exploring the Now, its nature. We are speaking here of life patterns of the past, life patterns to be, and the source of them. Enriching life comes through living it and its many realities. The past, to some measure, is known. The future is anticipated, based upon these and intuition of potential. The NOW reality is the eternal presence of life as a creator. Identifying with the past or the future is a limitation, with purpose. The Now reality in consciousness is freer than this. It is flowing with life in its motion of expression.

There is life more basic than past and future. It is more causal than even present. Source is a better word than Now. The physical universe has a source reality that transcends past and future, more causal. The past and future are expressions of it. Thinking of exploring the reality of the coexistence of the past and the future liberates one from identity with either. They are creations continuing to create.

What is their nature? What continues their reality? What is the source of their vitality? Including your own True Nature. Lingering in this perspective of inquiry awakens consciousness to Source of Life, yet it is omnipresent in all life patterns in motion. It is pure being and it is not well described as “it” for ‘its success’ suggests boundaries and limitations. What is there, we ask, that is not the Source of Life or part of it?

A life expression being conscious as the Source of Life is challenged by identity with any one expression from it. The purpose of the veil, you see, among others. Being conscious as Now liberates. Namaste.

Exploring Life, Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU:    The realization of the coexistence of challenges and evolution, the flow of life, opens the door to a deeper understanding of co-creation and these challenges to evolution. Awakening affords the opportunity to manage change, challenges, without waiting for the destructive hurdles that can ensue forcing change. So change in harmony with the flow of life is the key, through insight, understanding and acceptance.

The destructive side of challenges is cause and effect, from life patterns that have become fixed. Frequent inquiry into the need for change and the openness to understand it and embrace it is a more peaceful path in the flow of life. Learn the signs, the language of change: encouragements, the insights, and the desire. You are life in motion.

Challenge thoughts and desires of sameness, continuations of any one pattern in life. Become a conscious being in motion, not blindly but with insight and wisdom. Your True Nature is the doorway to achieve this. It is you. Awaken to the larger reality of being. Namaste.

Message for Humanity: Self-worth

Comments Off on Message for Humanity: Self-worth

Inspiration, The Human Condition

, , , ,

JANU:    The human perception of self-worth is the request for focus of exploration of understanding and remedy. This is a dark area for many and societal circumstance paints a dark picture. Hard to shine a light in and illuminate.

What we speak to here is intrinsic worth that one may or may not be aware of. Eternal worth, perpetual worth just by being. Difficult to shake off the life patterns of other’s perception of personal interpretation of relationships. Part of the worth of being is potential. Potential of Life itself and all it can be. One does not own life. One is life. And what would creation be without it?

Now we speak here not just of human beings but all of life. How does one find freedom from misinterpretation but by expanding the ability and the experience of self-love. “And what is meant by ‘love’?” you ask. The intimacy of connection into a purpose, the joy that we discover in ourselves and each other. Your True Nature loves you without question. How could it not? You are it. How can you not love another? For you are One.

The circumstances of life are just the steppingstones on the path of discovery, creativity, rebuilding, modification, experimentation. Experiment freely with an evolving purpose and love of life, but grow in knowing your Nature. Conscious union with the larger You is the journey worth taking. And that journey is filled with adventure and discovery. The freedom of understanding that comes is more powerful than any fear, confusion, frustration, disappointment. They fade in the light of the Truth of Life.

Choose to live in freedom and be all you can be. Love each other and allow them their freedom as well, in your own perception of life. Namaste.

Freedom in the face of limited identity

Comments Off on Freedom in the face of limited identity

Exploring Life

, , , , ,

JANU: The criteria for the realization of human potential is the freedom to be, based upon clarity of understanding, desire to live it. Processing, observation, and understanding are a constant challenge belonging to the list of objectives delving into the imagination.

These wonderings belong to a series of events rich in dialogue and contradictions. May we say at this time that there belongs to these ownership steeped in traditions that are in lockstep with the past, needing new footings rich in the freedom of adventure and choice. We would have you know at this time that potential for evolution and creativity has always existed, not always expressed. What we encourage at this time is introspection, understanding in depth the challenges to these wonderings and what holds them locked, to a degree, in life patterns. Rich are these in potential if allowed to be free to evolve.

So the tools and the promise of life are inherent in every moment and all of life’s patterns. Decide to be the wonderings that inspire you. Live the opportunities that Life presents. They are the answer to the call of humanity. Namaste.

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

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 Awakening

, , , , , ,

JANU:    The potential of Life is enormous. Being conscious as more and more of Life is part of the process of awakening. In the current incarnate condition of consciousness, for most, the direct experience of life is perceived as physical life. Lip service is paid to the unknowns of being. Many religions try to describe this, but there’s a vagueness about it.

On our journeys, the word ‘our’ refers to the human consciousness and identity as well as the True Nature, the True Nature being the so-called soul or larger being that survives incarnations and is conscious of more of life than the human personality. Conscious union, individually, has its unique life patterns as part of the process of desire by the incarnate consciousness to reunite or become one with the larger identity. The process is described as that which affords continuity and non-interference with a wise and loving pattern of awakening. Integrating a larger consciousness with the incarnate life patterns unfolds in a way that brings enlightenment to both incarnate and spiritual elements of being. Both evolving together in the direction of oneness, fulfilling opportunities of potential; therefore evolving in harmony with life.

Patience means moving in harmony with the natural order which takes all the patterns of life, of all of life, into consideration, so that Life benefits on its path of realization of potential. So, movement takes place from individual identity towards unlimited identity, or universal consciousness. Not to be rushed by unwise desires, uncontrolled desires, but allowed to unfold with patience, confidence, faith in reality, and a love of Life. So, walk the journey of being conscious as more and more of life. Namaste.

 As this is the basic premise of all I have presented on this website, there are lots of background sources to investigate, if you choose, in whatever fashion suits you. An identically named journey from 2019 offers a slightly different take on the idea, as does Progress on the human journey of awakening  from 2015. For further background, the reader may also wish to check out the page entitled Awakening to the Larger Life, which consists of various links to collections of journeys having to do with awakening.

What is discarnate life like?

Comments Off on What is discarnate life like?

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , ,

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.

Comments Off on The role of identity

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , , , , ,

JANU:   Identity, the exploration of, is an attachment to variations on a reality. Personal identity can expand beyond the manifestation of a singularity, life beyond that limitation. Identity reaches into the depths of the mystery of Life when it encounters borders, one thing versus another in description and purpose. The nature of which succumbs to limitation under the perception of diversity, differences, isolated existence for the purpose of exploring the depth of life patterns.

Let us reach then into the so-called mysteries of Life, understanding their nature, their coexistence, that which builds opportunities and challenges of discovery and realization. The fluid nature of reality allows for constant flow, change, combining, reconstruction, dissolution, and enrichment. Owning in consciousness in this manner reinvigorates openness to discovery, the possibility of complexities and interactions, starting over, re-examination, stirring the pot of Life, so to speak. Timelessness  when realized is reality where realizing its reality allows for deeper exploration of possibilities and existence. Re-incorporation of past journeys into new relationships and new adventures invigorates life as never before on any path of discovery.

We reach into these things to understand, to gain wisdom, to refine meanings. Why not, then, incorporate these into a scheme of life of constant evolution, depth, and new purpose? In other words, explore Life as far as it will take you into timelessness. Namaste.

The question of identity and identity shifting is a recurrent one. Two other journeys most related to this one are Mastering the Many Faces of Identity (LINK) and The What and Why of Identity. A compilation of journeys on this topic is Identity within Awakening.

Penitence

Comments Off on Penitence 

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , ,

JANU:  We are looking for a fuller and larger understanding of life. Penitence is the word we begin with, due penitence. Embracing life and its potential includes its own reality. What does it mean then to give due to all you have been and are? To acknowledge it, to own it, to love it, to give it to enrich life. The magic of expansion, of ongoingness is to embrace, to engage, to desire that life fulfills itself and we are part of that.

How does one fulfill the potential of everything, whether manifest or not? Being conscious of Life is part of being conscious as Life. Identity separate from universality. Let us focus that revelation and generate life patterns. But there is more. Allow your identity to evolve, which means conscious connection as a Larger Life. This is foreign and frightening to those who are solidly identified as only a part of Life.

One senses unfinished business. The more conscious you are, the more complete the business and its nature. The Larger Life is not just other individuals but other realities and being conscious as them. Engaging, contributing, becoming, fulfilling. Identity shifting does not mean just becoming something else, but adding another part of reality to your being and being that reality. Letting go of limitation does not mean letting go of your Nature but embracing it, becoming conscious of and as more of what you already are.

Some already exhibit remarkable ability as amazing parts of Life. Discover your own and refine them. Love them into your life. Let them become enriching factors to serve how they may. Namaste.

More on “What is Life?”

Comments Off on More on “What is Life?”

Footsteps on the Path of Awakening

, , , ,

JANU:   The course of evolution in any culture, whether the Earth or somewhere else, includes survival and, at times not as you might think. Life is larger in meaning, potential, purpose, and begs the question: What is Life? The expressions of it vary greatly. Its purpose is to be. Life patterns compound exponentially, moment to moment, and even beyond definite perception of time. Each plane of existence has its own consciousness, its instincts for survival, its curiosities to evolve, to connect, to communicate. One unaware of the other to varying degrees. The perception of sacrifice for the survival of another speaks to essential life.

The existence of life extends beyond any one reality. For one reality to embrace another there must be re-formation for pattern matching. Common ground for communication forms in this way, and others.

How does one pattern match another? Through insights, inspirations, or in subtler realities that exist and blossom through the evolving evolution of the species from deep within.

“And what inspires?” you ask. A love of life, which includes gratitude and the desire to awaken to something greater. Life has an affinity to awaken, to embrace itself through expression, much as the physical body takes a breath to continue.

It is revealing to explore what is natural for any existence to continue. The presence of natural conditions is a foundation for the beginning of that reality. There are other natural realities that are foundation for other life expressions. Life is aware of all of these realities even though the realities, in their natural state, are still awakening to the roots of their being, where all exists and potential is blossoming.

So beginning and ending exists in a reality of ongoingness. As pattern matching evolves, so does evolution. Find peace in this, confidence. Think and live as Life continues. Namaste.
