The Art of Awakening

JANU: The art of awakening is the theme and there is an art to it, our brother, conditioning your consciousness to be more free of limited social concepts and perceptions. Any art form has elements of conditioning, perception, commitments, and follow through, usually accompanied with passion and respect for the beauty of it. Understanding something of the destiny of awakening helps make this possible. Many art forms have a purpose of conveying something to the observer that is meaningful, uplifting, and revelatory.

The art of awakening consists of many forms but the elements, or at least some of these, are fairly unique to each individual. Deep within your being, but always present, is your True Nature. It has beauty as well and the source of conditioning the consciousness in the art of awakening. As you observe, connect with, and appreciate the qualities of your True Nature, you learn of your connectedness, your oneness with everything, and see beyond the scales of social consciousness. Awakening beings can see the magic of life and wonder at its wisdom, diversity, and creativity.

Be in a state of forgiveness for your life and those you observe. It brings peace to the consciousness and opens the path of understanding. Patience, another virtue in the art of awakening. Processing new understandings and experiences prepares one for the next ones. Namaste, our brother.

What is your model for living becoming?

JANU: We are delivering, if you will, a message for those who choose to enjoy awakening, a continuous opportunity to blend in with the incarnate life as they become one. Consider this, our brother, that there is a model for living as an awakening incarnate being, where the miracles of living, the magic and wonders, are almost second nature. Humanity is not there yet; however, it is moving in that direction. Not to copy other models but to be one. Being able to perceive the layers of truth behind anything makes for wiser choices, deeper commitments and performance. Difficult to explain. What has been considered as written in stone in human society and experience no longer is. No living condition is inevitable. All life is subject to change, even the concepts, philosophies of so-called religion, government, economies, science, philosophies, so-called laws of nature. All fluid, all changing and new systems of life coming into view.

What is a model, then, for awakening incarnate living? Many other realities of existence that are not physical have their models as well, though the parameters of their existence are not the same. But consider within what your model for living would be and is becoming and this will bring purpose and clarity to the path of awakening. Draw on the inspirations of others and their examples in living that seem successful, but build your own, and together a human model is made and grows.

If the laws of nature, science can change, what changes, then, our brother, and are you part of this? And in what way? How do they come into existence? Humanity is not the only example of awakening. All of life, our brother, no matter what expression, is evolving, becoming more aware of its existence and its relationships. All of life learns from the rest of life. Grow to understand the meaning of uniqueness and oneness at the same time. What is your model for living becoming? Namaste, our brother.

What is real?

JANU: We are encouraging then the discovery of the Truth of Life. Your recent ponderings are part of this. The answer to your question is: All of life is real. All that is exists, ever changing, ever expanding. The awakening we speak of, our brother, and refer to often is the realization of this. Discovering what is. Understanding it. Appreciating life, and to appreciate something is to increase its value, its worth, its reality. So you are life appreciating itself, expanding its existence, enriching itself. You’re a part of this as well, and it’s a wondrous thing. And, yes, there is beauty in all of it, the miracle of life.

With this growing understanding, one sees everything with new eyes, every time they gaze upon it. Even appreciating and seeing who you are is to see the beauty in your being, the miracle of it, the miracle of its potential. Life is the answer to your query, our brother, the answer to everything. How can you doubt life, when you are an example of it, the proof of it, the result of it, and, yes, the creator of it? Opening your consciousness to the truth of this reveals unseen mysteries.

And, yes, one answer, so to speak, always leads to another question. This is discovery. This is engaging life. So, ask your questions. Listen for answers. Ponder them. And allow their gift of further inquiry and discovery. Find peace in this. Everything is all right. How can it be otherwise, for it exists? Life does not value one expression of it over another, for the beauty of the presence of life and its gift is eternal. We rejoice in this truth with you and may it always enrich your life, as you enrich life. Namaste.

Why do we exist?

JANU: The subject today is self-realization, understanding that ‘self’ also refers to Life itself. The pursuit to knowledge, consciousness, evolution, creativity, loving, building, relationships, mutual support and service, these elements of life encourage their continuation. The question you raise is “Why? What’s the motivator? What is the purpose of awakening more and more, to what?”

The simple truth, our brother, is that the Source of Life, of which everyone is a part and is patterned from, has an imperative to realize itself through its potential and manifestation for reality exists in even larger ways than this, our brother. Your reality of existence, as you are understanding, is not just as a human being but as a spiritual being, of which there are countless others. But all of this represents collective life, and even it has a source reality that began it all. “Began” not being appropriate here. That is a human term based on time/space. So how does one embrace infinity, eternity, continued reality of that which has no beginning? These movements in consciousness, these imperatives to evolve, to ask questions and seek answers are issues that are larger than finite purposes. Your consciousness is experimenting, it is exploring with incarnate life, but it’s still life, our brother. Micro- and macrocosm are one. Their purpose, their achievements are one. Being in the flow of life speaks to this.

The answer to your questions are larger than the questions, you see, but are inherent in them. The pursuit to understand, experience, and gain wisdom is a manifestation of self-realization, not only for you but for Life itself. Who can answer the questions: What is it? What is all that you can be, and why do you want to know? Why begin the journey? Because you are Life realizing all that it can be, which is an expression of all that it is. The wonders that arise from these pursuits describe the magic of life. What greater journey is there, our brother, than to be one with all that can be? Welcome to who you are. Namaste.

The nature of everything

JANU: The light is beginning to dawn on a new perspective of life while incarnate. In the search for the larger realities of life, the more insightful, the more liberating, the more eternal are being found or discovered through the realities of the human experience. This perspective, our brother, exists on other worlds as well, where the experiences are not human but something else.

The path here is becoming conscious of the nature of life, the nature of creation, the nature of manifestation, the nature of experience, of thought, of emotion. What is reality, then, but the co-existence of all of this? The so-called veil on the human journey has its nature as well. Ignorance of these things has its nature, as well. Reality is shaped by opportunity. And the opportunities, not only of discovery but of becoming, are unlimited.

Reaching for opportunities beyond and outside of current circumstance is an illusion, dear one. They only exist in the moment and are ever-present, no matter where and when you are, for the nature of your own being and of all these is eternal, present, ongoing, yet changing. For all of life is in motion, including opportunities, relationships, perspectives. Life cannot be defined by one creation or another, one limit or another, even one opportunity or another. Life is all of these, and the nature of all of these.

So, then, what is a realistic perspective when considering incarnate life in the presence of all of this? The challenge and the opportunity is to experience all opportunities and the nature of everything. To perceive creation only as the creation is to miss the larger truth. So what is the nature, our brother, of a sunrise? The reality is vast. Simultaneously, so many realities are in play, interacting, combining to support that sunrise. Even the perception of it, you see, by your own consciousness and incarnate experience reflect, for a moment, on all that is involved. That is the magic of life, our brother. It is an example of the nature of everything, the object of every inquiry, including the one inquiring, you see.

Life is so much more than a word. The nature of existence is so much more than a word. Being human, incarnate, and all the potential, cannot be encompassed in these words. So, when we speak of the larger life, our brother, it isn’t in a reality separate from incarnate life, or the Earth, or being human. It is the nature of everything. That is the larger life.

Engaging life in this way, no matter your circumstance, ultimately reveals the natures of everything, whether on this world or another, whether in this dimension or another. For even though these natures have different parameters, they all lead to one Life that is ever changing and expanding. No matter what world, what universe. That is the magic of it all. So let each moment of wonder, inquiry, and discovery open to the nature of the wonder, our brother. Consciousness and experience is not limited to any one reality, but can roam life gaining and giving what it may. Living in the Now embraces this. Namaste, our brother.

Intimacy

JANU: We are summoning, if you will, the greatness of life as expressed through the human journey. Our goal this evening is to connect with and, for many, re-connect with the greatness of the human consciousness, the human spirit if you prefer.

When connecting with any of the elements of life, meaning the expressions, the consciousness of another, what is it that you see? Is it that which initiates, discovers, finds value in everything? Or is the mundane your primary perception? The human spirit or consciousness is with unlimited diversity, not only of expression but of response to the experiences of life, the interactions, the “unfoldments.” Opening to this, our brother, reveals associations and collaborations, not just with another human being but other beings as well.

These journeys we are taking have this opportunity to perceive the seeming magic of life and know it. Experiencing the living presence in all of life is to experience your own. Words do not capture this. Thinking does not capture this. Love captures this.

The experience is a growing intimacy with the life in everything. No longer the aloof observer forming opinions, appraisals of varying importance or significance. Much of life, our brother, has this intimacy with you. More than you have with your own being. Yet, as your True Nature becomes your experience and your identity, the intimacy returns.

Allow yourself to become intimate with another in the sense of connection. The deeper this becomes your experience, you know who you are. See beyond the facades, the patternings, the limited identities. Be intimate with the quiet truth of everything. Thank you, our brother, and namaste.

The miracles of life

JANU: We are reaching, symbolically, into ‘our bag of tricks,’ seeming magical and illusive to most. But they are not, our brother.

Opening the bag and reaching in, one finds a peaceful consciousness that seems unlimited. A growing understanding of the nature and elements of many planes of existence. The power of the understanding of truth that is in motion. The power of perfect understanding, the perfect moment or juncture in someone’s life. A so-called ‘sweet spot’ in consciousness that triggers the revelation of so much. The magic of inspiration, illumination, and a balance in the presence of everything. And open-mindedness, with discernment and growing depth of perception. And vitality.

The goal here is not to bypass life and its challenges or opportunities, but to own them, the master of the journey. So you see, our brother, not tricks at all but the miracles of life. Namaste.

The beauty of oneness

JANU: Welcome on a journey of exploration into the seeming vastness of life beyond imagination. At what point is this revelation meaningless in terms of the finite perceptions of life? The primary principles of life might seem to have less awe-inspiring reality than life’s creations, for in the human journey the interaction of creations is focused upon as the magic of life, interactions that can be described, emulated, repeated, and have meaning. How does one see, then, beyond this magic to appreciate the beauty of Pure Being? The human journey is an opportunity to realize the scope of this and find meaning in potential.

So let us continue our explorations with this in mind, that meaning and being are one. See not the incarnate life as a departure from the beauty of the rest of life. In oneness, beauty translates throughout all creation, all realities, and Pure Being is another perspective of the one Life. The one Life infinitely varied and countless shades of meaning and purpose and beauty. Find this in everything. All of it is wonderful. All of it tells stories of Life.

There is magic and beauty in one form or another everywhere. Whether time/space or not, it matters not. There is a unity in all of life, in the midst of unlimited diversity. See your existence in this way as well, your thoughts, your feelings, your desires, your ambitions. And in people’s struggles as well. When you are at peace, you are one. Namaste, our brother.

Merging individual will & divine will

JANU: You ask, “What is there to love about life that makes it so compelling and enriching?” It is the beauty and the magic that life is, perpetual, self-loving, evolving, ever expanding, and self-enriching. The magic of love in all of this is at the heart of everything, and it finds so many different expressions, manifestations, meanings, and vitality. What is more qualified and capable of loving everything than Life itself?

Being part of the nature of Life, what more divine is this will of being, of caring, nurturing, and building? Individual will is a part of that, a component, a reflection, an image of the universal will of Life. Allow your will to be guided, inspired, and express the universal will of the love of Life, the love that Life is. Have confidence that, when accomplishing this, the results are magnificent, larger than the potential of your imagination. What greater peace than to be one with the life that you are?

See yourself not only as individual expression, but an expression of what, our brother? An expression of the nature of your being. Nothing is lost. Everything is gained. And your service has meaning. Join with us in this way, as we learn together through experience and awakening. Namaste.

Be a truthful representative of the life that you are

JANU: We are assembling this morning that needed for a journey into the far regions, also the near region, of the True Nature of the so-called human being. Far in the sense of seemingly long way from human awareness. Near in the sense of the intimate nature of your true reality.

The human journey has been an interesting one, full of contradictions and confusion, sprinkled with moments of truth and revelation and inspiration. Not settling on any one thing or understanding, for these truths are in motion and your anchor in life keeps moving and changing. The only stability to measure the moment on is your evolving and changing nature. Others around you, their philosophies and truths, are changing as well.

The Truth of Life that you reach for is the essence of life, which is more eternal than any creation, but it is evolving as well. How does one embrace a consciousness that is at once rooted in corporeal existence yet whose nature is finer than this? It is by accepting the existence, so to speak, of all realities, including your diverse nature. Allow each reality its validity, its nature, and its relationship with all that you are. It is not a contest of one reality being truer than another, or more vital or essential. All are needed, useful, co-existing, and mutually supportive.

Understanding the nature of life around you and the life within you opens your awareness to the oneness of it all, not preferring one part of life over another, but embracing all of life. Being at peace with all of life, and grateful for its reality. Everyone you meet represents all of this, is a walking composite of miracles called the ‘magic of life.’ Life is aware of its nature through you. As you may, be a truthful representative of the life that you are, bringing a growing clarity with less confusion. Be patient, be at peace, and engage life. Namaste.
