Active listening

JANU: We are speaking to the listeners who lend an ear, building trust in what life has to offer, which is the Truth, what some call the Light.

What is the nature of listening, then, with integrity and a revealing perception that lingers? It is being touched by Life, allowing the touching, you see, and experiencing the result, centered in your integrity and your love of understanding. As you may have discerned, listening is the theme here but the touching brings processes and absorption of patterns and relationships. So, listening, you see, is a very active experience, allowing for engagement and the process of becoming.

The True Nature is a channel, if you will, for more than its memories, but the memories that have been recorded in the natures of others and all of creation, our brother. Even your world has memories and records them. As you have experienced, creatures of the world do as well. Memories involved in listening also include your own, and not just of this sojourn, you see, but of many journeys and adventures. When listening is focused yet open, the memories speak to you, to be discerned.

This is a natural way of life, our brother. Active listening transforms your consciousness and connects you with more of life. So listen well, our brother, and namaste.

More on memories

JANU: We are elevating once more the reality of awakening, revealing as each one proceeds the True Nature of everything, including one’s own existence. The memories alone, in the consciousness of each one by way of their True Nature, are an enormous repository of experience. Memories are the record keeping, if you will, to draw upon and contribute to, even memories, our brother, of journeys and incarnations involving other worlds, other realities.

You ask, “How does one access this repository?” It is revealed to you as you have need of. The triggers are each need and your attunement to, your openness to, and your confidence in, your own True Being. Having a reason for the experience and the memory that supports it that is in harmony with your integrity provide the foundation for awareness. Journeying as we do has its memory support as well, whether locally or in the far reaches of the universe. Wisdom is enhanced by these, for they add depth to understanding and choices, to perceptions.

Memories can seem totally spontaneous but they are direct response to conditions of consciousness. Under certain circumstances, the memories of others can be known. People speak of being connected. This is a small part of it, our brother. And your memories are connected to other memories as well. Associations, you see. Reflecting upon possibilities in your consciousness opens up worlds of understanding and connection. Many dismiss memories, not understanding their origin or the reason for their arrival. Observe your thoughts and experiences, circumstances, when memories seem to appear from nowhere. They are associated with many things. Your True Nature, who you truly are, has a vitality and intelligence, a presence.

A valid question, our brother: What is real? Is reality more than you are aware of? Your memories can reveal this to you. Namaste, our brother.

Awakening and the flow of life

JANU:   What we have in store for this journey is a remembrance of a time when—time being a limited expression here—you were on a world in some ways like this one. Far more conscious and consciously active in the affairs of that world, in the role of guardian of its so-called secrets, looking for opportunity to share these with others of that world. The dilemma, of course, is how much and when and with whom.

The flow of life in any reality is not the conveyance of all there is to know and be without reservation. By ‘reservation’ we mean being in harmony with destinies, timing, preparation, capabilities, and the many currents of life.

You learned patience on that world, profound caring, and the reality that your contributions to life remain connected with you. There are legacies to your involvement. More than just memories, our brother, but real, active residuals that are not fixed but evolve, as your contributions evolve and expand.

Awakening to and being involved in the larger life is a continuous process, just as life is. Nothing lost; everything gained. Your involvement in the larger life makes your life larger. How can it be otherwise? Your life in this incarnation has become larger, as have your associations.

The theme here this morning is the reality that awakening is the embracing of a continuous movement in the flow of life that evolves and expands endlessly. The brief, limited identity of separation through the veil is very temporary and, in some ways, an illusion. For even under the veil, you become larger. Your life expands, as does your identity and sense of being. The human mind tends to think in terms of steps along the way, fixed plateaus and levels. Life is continuous, our brother. Nothing fixed about it. Even the illusion of physicality, isolated any way from so-called spiritual life, is a reality within a larger one.

So grow more aware of the expansion of your being, your identity, in all of your contemplations, involvements, and commitments. The movement, flow of life is present in every reality. Namaste, our brother.

Wisdom

JANU: We are patterning today to bring out latent confidences. The challenge is not new understandings, new realities, new capabilities. The challenge is to become them. Remembering previous experience and abilities brings confidence. Realizing you have done this before, many times, melts the barriers of incredibility. So we focus this day on having done this before.

The first approach, the first step, is remembering what was accomplished with these abilities and they bring credibility to the capability. Allow memory, then, of a previous existence in another world where you and your compatriots were the Wisdom Guides for different cultures, tapping into the memories of those you served to bring them their confidence of their own abilities. Now, these achievements were not calculated, manipulated, or engineered into existence. They came more naturally by opening to their reality without the conditioning of others who had no understanding.

Now, one learns rather quickly that the dispensing of specific wisdom tailored for an individual or small group can ultimately bypass their own efforts and earnings or ability by being an easier path than owned achievements. So, what is wisdom, our brother? Shared understanding, but not bypassing the strength-building, confidence-building reach for awakening.

Yes, awakening is a personal experience with measures of wisdom, of support and inspiration. We of the Brotherhood of Light have long served in this way. It takes patience, thoughtfulness, and a history of experience, with caring and loving monitoring of what unfolds. This is knowledge you already have, our brother, which describes your reluctance to be a so-called ‘teacher’ in the ordinary sense of your world. We are not here to carry you, but to inspire. Inspiration based upon your deep desires and truth that lives within you.

We speak of associations and collaborations. A developing and deepening wisdom is key to this. The true inspiration of another serves both equally. In different ways at times, but never to the expense of another’s opportunity of self-realization. But the march of life goes on, our brother, and no matter your proficiency, the desire remains to be helpful and serve life in harmony with its nature. If one is lifted, one lifts themselves, then all are lifted, our brother.

Ponder wisdom carefully, patiently, foundationed in a peaceful love of life. Namaste.

Awakening 42:   Memories

JANU: We are sharing then, this day, a welcome to all who journey on the path of awakening, welcoming home all those who have forgotten their heritage.

A large part of awakening is remembering. How often do people reach for some piece of information they have forgotten but find that, until they let go of it, stop struggling, it eludes them? When they move on past the inquiry, the remembering comes. So it is with awakening, our brother. Reaching for the truth of who you are returns to you as any frustration is left aside. As one gets on with living, the memory comes.

Living in the present, in the moment, with what is at your doorstep, gives purpose and reason for the memory, you see. Real life in the moment is the catalyst for it, that it find expression and enrich your day, your life. Remembering your nature enriches the moment, brings understanding to facilitate wise choices, reduces the need to repeat the cycles of life, and their experiences, over and over. So your life becomes more efficient, more effective, fewer repetitions of opportunity, and easier flow of new ones.

Remembering is the theme here. It is a natural process to remember who you are. One does not demand a memory, you see, but allows it. The energy pattern is entirely different and allows the wisdom of life and your True Nature to hold sway. Choosing to remember more of the truth of your life is allowing with an expectation that that truth exists and is yours. As each memory arrives, gratitude serves well and confidence grows, for the wisdom that comes serves you. Frustration and struggle and a feeling of lack or deprivation limits you.

Allow your consciousness to remember, to recall more of the truth of your being, your many journeys and experiences, service and enrichments, as well as your associations. Choose to remember. Allow it to be. Love it into your life and the gratitude opens the door even farther.

You have had memories in the past, in this lifetime, that came in this way. Remember them as well; they are a connection. You can even remember when you incarnated and the changes that took place and why you chose it. Remember the joy of just being and its true peace. Remember the subtlety of love itself and all its meaning. Remember when time and distance did not limit your travels, your explorations, your perspective. Even remember your first incarnation and what led to it. Memories are a rich resource to deepen your life. Namaste, our brother.

Releasing fears

This is a question/These are questions received from an individual, responded to by Janu and the Brotherhood of Light, and presented here to provide a more personal connection to these journeys. The response given is directed to that particular individual, and is presented for research purposes only. All health concerns should be referred to a licensed healthcare professional.

Q:        Why do I carry so much fear? How can I release the fear and doubts surrounding my life, my career, my being?

JANU: We have this one you speak of and her residence. Fear has gripped this one as it does so many. An examination of the nature of fear would do well at this time.

This phenomenon, this pattern within the memory and subsequently the emotions, is essentially a mechanism of self-protection from anticipated traumatic or negative experience or involvement, you see. Fears can be precipitated by imagined realities or direct observation or experience. The overcoming of a fear, which can be so general in its influence in your life even though precipitated by a single event, is by understanding it and recognizing these patterns for what they are. In this case, dear one, your fear has roots in early childhood when observing your surroundings or atmosphere for being or presence in a school setting. The threat of or implied threat of negative consequences by authorities for so many warned against patterns of conduct and behavior had an overwhelming effect and suppressed the freedom to be expressive and engaging and allowing and forgiving of oneself. This episode triggered old memories of similar nature from previous existences. The pattern of reinforcement for this condition in this life is sufficient to resolve this issue, you see.

Examine closely from your adult perspective the realities of life around you. The less worldly-wise perspective of a young child thrown in the midst of a controlling environment, which to the child bore or held dire consequences for infraction of the rules. These rules or standards, dear one, are arbitrarily chosen and product of what some term consensus agreement. Not necessarily attuned to the sensitive and open nature of a young one looking to life around them as example or model for their identity and worth. This pattern, then, is reinforced in society at large by the impositions of authority and consensus rules for living because the pattern invites it to continue.

There comes a time in the life, dear one, when the wisdom of the soul says “Enough. It is time to move from this imposed pattern of intimidation and suppression of divine right for free expression.” You must make this decision and know that the authority for the choice is larger than these social impositions, you see. These impositions are based upon a lack of awareness of the reality and strength of the wisdom of the inner divine understanding for harmonious behavior and conducting of life. They are formed insensitive to this to large degree and therefore risk the suppression of the inner wisdom for right choice. You must command this once more in your life, dear one, and you have the support of your own true nature and the rest of creation that honors this. Standing, then, in your truth with confidence and connection you become a light of wisdom, balance, and support for others in fear of intimidation by the rules of living, someone disconnected from this larger understanding, you see.

The issue then, dear one, is not the career or the circumstances around you or the impositions of others or the norms of society. The authority for living and expression and successful interaction with life is within you. Let your inner authority and the successful expression of this be an example and an encouragement to those around you. There may be times when some difficulty in interpretation or application due to the diversions or distortions of previous training or conditioning by society brings results you would prefer to be different. No matter, dear one. Continue to move on and make improvements in your interpretation, your understanding of the inner authority for living and its wisdom. It is the correct and natural process towards full self-realization.

An unreasoning fear has no positive place in the experience, dear one. Avoidance of undesirable circumstance and conditions is prudent. Accurate assessment of the potentials for outcome through choices and involvements is wise. But all of these observations are best made from your central authority and the wisdom of your true nature. Take any one incident or pattern in your life that speaks of unreasoning fear and re-examine it from this true perspective within you. Practice this over and over, dear one. It will build in the strength of its presence through application again and again and again. Get your subtler bodies, emotions, and, yes, the memory of the physical as well, for it is recorded there too, used to this new pattern of authority so that these elements of your being no longer look to external authority as their primary guide for being and expression.

The steps in this new direction, in time, will become so automatic and natural for you, you will no longer need to ponder this choice at length with each challenge in life. Apply this procedure as any old fear patterns arise. Let none escape to continue their influence in your life. Be patient with this and tolerant of the self, encouraging the aspects of your being that all will be well and life will be much happier and fulfilling. For you will come in to, as a whole being, your true authority, your divine sovereignty and realize your full capacity to love all life and yourself. Consider the wonderful prospects, dear one, of being an example of this for others within confusion and lack of true authority in their lives. We encourage you and support you for this is the true path of life and fulfillment. We enjoin you to proceed.

We are the Brotherhood of Light and wish you profound happiness and success. Namaste.

What is beauty?

JANU:    We are encouraged by the beautiful music recurring in the memory. You ask, “What is beauty, that can be seen in so many forms?” It is an image, a reflection, an expression of the truth within you, your True Nature, its depth and purpose. How can you see what does not live within you?

You’ve asked for the source of that beauty. It is who you are, our brother. This is why we encourage your perceptions be from your True Nature, who you are. See life in this way. Even that described as ‘not beautiful’ by those who can not see.

Purposefully and deliberately, see the beauty in everyone, one at a time. Each one has their own beauty. Not seeing this, the lacking is not in them but in the observer. This is why something you find beautiful repeats itself as it plays through your memory, your consciousness, your emotions. Consider carefully that which you seem not to be able to see beauty in. Call upon your True Nature to open your eyes. This benefits you and the one you observe, and you will remember what beauty is. Enjoy the journey of beauty, our brother. Namaste.

Difference between individuality & uniqueness

JANU: Exploring and engaging the larger life is a significant threshold in the evolution of consciousness. Becoming aware of this means becoming aware as this, no longer identified just as an incarnate human but not eliminating it, either. When one is conscious as a provincial community member and then begins to travel the world, their perspective changes. Their former identity takes its place in the larger reality. And the larger reality is a larger identity, our brother.

So, as we move these journeys into the larger life, allow the natural transition of identity, sense of being, your role in life to evolve. You touch life and life touches you in new ways. Much of this you have done before. So much is memory re-awakening, but not limited to this. You will become aware of many you have known, and know you. There is both a personal and a universal reality here, co-existing. The need for privacy to survive the incarnate life, the human experience, becomes irrelevant.

There is a difference between individuality and uniqueness. Uniqueness does not mean ‘separate from’ but ‘one with, uniquely.’ Your hand is unique to the body but one with it. Living the incarnate life uniquely can be seen in the same way, for the truth of who you are is one with all of life. So, your place in life is unique and that uniqueness is part of the richness of life, as is everyone else’s. This understanding translates well into successful incarnate life, or any life, our brother.

So, you see, the larger life is far more than a phrase. It is a fuller and richer experience than individuality. Allow this into your thinking and your experience. Namaste, our brother.

Kidney disease and past life impact

This is a request received from an individual, responded to by Janu and the Brotherhood of Light, and presented here to provide a more personal connection to these journeys. The response given is directed to that particular individual, and is presented for research purposes only. All health concerns should be referred to a licensed healthcare professional.

JANU: We are examining this condition as described for this one in the location given.

What we see here at this time is one who has narrowly escaped a condition known as sclerosis of those ducts that describe kidney and liver function. We see some bladder distension and minor irritation. The polyps in the bladder you refer to are not well described at this time, although we see these formations on the horizon. The right kidney you refer to suffers from a green substance somewhat viscous, interfering with motility. Although not prevalent in the left kidney, that natural sympathetic response between these organs may contribute development, you see. This right kidney is under increased pressure and therefore painful. A back pressure, so to speak, needing relief. There is a hypertensive condition. We see some spasm in the ureters, in the linings, triggered by a cellular chemical imbalance or deficiencies. The word “neuroplasty” comes to mind.

The trauma you anticipate from the anesthesia for this procedure comes from a time when you barely hung on to life when under medical treatment in the late sixteenth century. The confusion at that time, and the perception of pain controlling measures, improperly placed blame for your traumatic experience, when in fact it was due to sepsis following the procedure. We would suggest at this time that reinforcing that fear could produce unwarranted negative outcome, causing you to feel that your fears were justified.

Now then, as to cause and remedy. We see a certain lactose intolerance and to that of sugar as well. We see a system unable to cope successfully with certain food substances. Whole milk products are particularly troublesome, causing a bilateral confusion to various systems that induce endocrine and immune system balance. Coffee one other such. And, of course, smoking byproducts constrict vessels, contributing to the hypertension. We see the need here for detoxifying regimens, electrolyte and blood chemistry rebalancing, mild exercise, and the practice of deep breathing exercises out of doors during early morning, some midday, and early evening hours with focused visualization. The rejuvenating effect of purging the lungs and a transference of vital energies brought into the system through the breathing, you see. Allow yourself to accept and feel this pranic energy bring heat and a tingling sensation indicating rejuvenating influence through vital life support throughout the body. See the body bathing in, from the inside out, detoxifying and purifying itself.

This systemic approach will bring more balance to the systems, where one does not detract from the other nearly as much, robbing vitality from each other and being in competition rather than cooperation. These eliminative systems suggest an overloaded response to a body not in harmony or cooperation.

We see also beneficial to you a repeated tone of a single tube from a windchime, approximately 18 centimeters long and 3\4 to 1 centimeter in diameter. Allow this tone to strike a chord within your energy fields. Gently strike this device and allow it to decay in its ring without striking again until ready to absorb the next striking, you see. This will cause a response as well in the pineal gland, which will allow more light into the systems, into the bodies. Allow your being to strike a responsive note as if it were behaving like this chime. See your chakras finding alignment, purifying themselves of disturbance, and the rod of life centered through them finds harmony, fuller vitality, and a greater ability to sustain the body.

We understand your question may well be “Should I engage in this procedure that has been scheduled?” We find no fault with this procedure, for its purpose is information gathering, but understand this with clarity that these procedures do not address cause. The decision is yours, as always. Make it from the wisest, most informed position possible. Seek wise counsel, not to exclude that of your own heart and inner knowingness. The more sterile procedures of this day render obsolete the sepsis of earlier times. The anesthesia of old was not the problem, dear one. But you are correct, this condition needs looking into. We see no pathology here that you cannot overcome. Take advantage of good medical opinion, but do so with the advantage of a larger, more holistic point of view. We wish you well on this journey, dear one, and have confidence in your physicians.

Understanding the path of awakening

JANU: Today’s journey in memories reveals the struggles of humanity to survive, to grow and prosper while incarnate. The questions that have arisen due to this review of memories are the reason for the veil, the wisdom of it, and the growth in consciousness beyond the need for it, the role of religion, and the laws of the land. All of this was brought about to help ensure the maintenance of the inherent integrity and dignity of consciousness, of the True Nature, of the spiritual being. A life without these models of understanding and integrity clearly leads to chaos and self-destruction. But the temporary measures of social order and religion, philosophy, theosophy are meant to be grown beyond, as building blocks.

The veil reveals, through experience while influenced by it, of the need for integrity and order, and the freedom to be and explore life’s potential. Not in chaos and destructive patterns, for life in the physical is a duality of this, re-creation through destruction, the tearing down and the building up, the confusion and the clarity that comes from experience, direct observation. How many would continue with this experience, our brother, without the veil? The veil is an opportunity to mature through experience, with a desire to see more clearly, to understand, to realize potential. Little by little, the veil is needed less and less, as the understanding comes and the mastery of life. Religions are part of this as well, although misunderstood, misinterpreted, and misapplied. Original design and intent is lost through time, so they too decay, making room for a freshness and greater clarity. Part of the path of awakening, our brother.

All of this serves the true purpose of life. Part of the awakening of humanity, proclaiming its true state and growing spiritual maturity. For the adventures are endless. The gifts of the journey are unfathomable all at once. So as you survey and explore life, keep this in mind to maintain perspective and appreciate the magic of it all, the gift of it all, the achievements yet to come, especially as humanity begins to discover and connect with other life forms, other worlds, other consciousnesses. The larger Family of Life is on its doorstep. Be at peace, our brother. All is well. Namaste.
