Follow your Dream

This is a question 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:        What is my purpose here and how am I to transfer this into a career so that I can help others? (in other words…what should I be doing?)

JANU: This is a common desire or passion to know and understand for so many, for the quickening time has arrived for the getting on with the soul’s journey and desire for expression in this embodiment, you see. This one’s desire is one of nurturing those conditions that prevail from a long history of service to those embarking on their life pilgrimage.

The soul, dear one, has an urging or thrust for certain qualities of experience and/or service in any given existence. The freedom of choice extends to you in this outer expression of the soul as to implementation, taking advantage of opportunity, creating constructive conditions and monitoring your progress. The purpose for living in any particular embodiment that most closely approximates that purpose for expression of the soul is that desire that lives within you, within the heart, that has passion and energizes you whenever you observe it or consider it or daydream about it. The difficulty for many when doing this is that their conscious minds come up with so many outer reasons why this would be rather impossible or extremely difficult, based on the conditions of the world and society around them, losing sight of the fact that when commitment is made to pursue this passion, the power, the wisdom and the love of life itself and the soul is allowed to channel through and provide opportunity, insight, courage, clarity of vision and the revealing of solutions.

Part of the growth pattern, dear one, is your commitment to discover the truth of this purpose through your own passion to know. It is a demonstration of your commitment to your being and speaks well of the likelihood that you will not let go in the face of adversity. Your first adversity is your own lack of awareness of this purpose. If this first adversity is too much for you, what would be the likelihood that the comment of another would gain your ongoing commitment? We encourage you to discover the truth of your soul desire and never let go of your passion for this discovery.

There will be times when it seems as though the years are ticking away without the revelation. But with faith and commitment to this desire, look for opportunities of urgings from within to pursue this or that and understand that these pursuits build a foundation, a beginning foundation for the acceptance and the commitment to this purpose you desire when revealed. Look for patterns of development in character and skill, wisdom, balance in the many involvements on the path to discovery of your heart’s and soul’s desire. The timing and the revelation, dear one, is the quality and the thoroughness of your acceptance of your preparation. There will be others you may encounter or observe with similar or near identical patterns of purpose expressed in their lives. Be alert to any recognition from within of joy and support for you as you observe the lives of these others. It is a great character builder to pursue your purpose in life and to never give up the pursuit. Loving it into understanding and manifestation. Through this path of discovery one owns and knows themselves so solidly that the pressures of others and external circumstance will not dissuade you.

The dream of a kind of life that brings true joy from within, no matter the form of expression, is as real as the expression. So when the dream comes and is seen, do not let others convince you of its unreality merely because it hasn’t manifested through some form yet. In many ways, the dream is more real than the expression, for the expression is born of it. The dream is the creator.

This message is intended, as such, to encourage many into their purpose. These dreams, dear one, do not end with the ending of the cycles of incarnation. Imagine the dreams for expression and experience of those who create worlds and universes. Do you not understand that you and this universe began with such a dream? A joy spawned dream.

We encourage you to listen deeply within to know your heart and have complete faith and trust in your ability to know the truth within you, never settling for less than the fullest expression of your true joy and your soul’s desire. Move forward with this, dear one, never accepting the doubts of others. Life will always be there with you and support, for your victory is life’s victory as well. Be an inspiration to others through example of the mastery of your quest and the fulfillment of your dream. Namaste.

Awakening 20: The community of awakening

JANU: Let us journey in the path of those who continue with this process, which is a growing community, if you will, of enlightenment. Among the experiences with this are camaraderie, sharing, mutual support, respect for the journey, and a return to peaceful consciousness once more.

The richness of the human journey is explored but not all in this community, if you will, share the human experience. But they learn of it from those who have. The awakening community is the theme here, but the experiences awakened from are varied. In this setting, one learns of the journeys in consciousness of those from many worlds and realities that are not physical, so to speak. Needless to say, the richness and the rewards of discovery are inspiring. The unawakened experiences are no longer looked upon unfavorably, for in this new community the result of these is wisdom and a growing love for the diversity of life. Incarnating is only one of many opportunities to explore life and serve it. Creativity occurs everywhere.

Let us expand our view of life to that of a growing community of re-awakened consciousnesses coming together after journeys of isolated individuality, reconnecting with the fuller life, returning home to some. One experiences how the experiences of another can be yours, as if you walked their journey. Part of the reason for the closeness, you see, the sense of community, of family. The rejuvenation, the reconnection seems as a miracle but a natural one. One understands that location, in a physical sense, in the universe is less and less relevant, for this community exists through consciousness and harmony.

No longer is your view of life and your identity limited to the human perspective, but is more inclusive and timeless. There is still a drawing to look in upon the human journey and those who continue it, for it is a part of you, with impressions and memories, patterns if you will. For all are patterned by their sojourns, whether human or not. The issues of physical survival no longer dominate, but the exchange of consciousness, the patterns of wisdom, experience, fill your love for life. Harmonious peace yet rich with opportunity, creativity, and service—meaning enriching life—brings you joy. The community of awakening is true. Namaste.

The path of service

This is a question 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.

Q:        I feel that I should be doing more, that I should be more definitely in service to others, but I don’t know what the “more” is. Should I be offering some kind of service, such as teaching or counseling? Or is my “mission” to be a White Magician?

JANU: We hear your searching, your looking, your longing for a focus of direction to install or invest your energies and that you’ve gained into. Your options are many, dear one, and they are options. Even, as you might put it, the most rewarding choice is an option like the rest.

The best service, the most rewarding, is the consciousness that you put into any endeavor to help another, to advance the cause of human understanding and evolvement in consciousness, you see. The richness, the fulfillment and the rewards are born of your own beingness. The form of the expression matters little compared to this. The beauty of the understanding is that any choice can and will be the best choice. And where is it written that only one choice is the best choice, dear one? The adventures you have specified are not exclusive of each other. Nothing is exclusive.

Many ponder this question in dismay for they seldom find the answer posed by the question or intent of same. For they think the answer lies in the chosen path of service. It does not. It lies within you. You bring the life to, the beauty, the wisdom, the unfoldment, to the path choice, you see. You make it magical and rewarding and a blessing to those you serve. Yes, the challenges and opportunities vary from one choice to another. But these differences aren’t the magic, they are only varied opportunities, options. You will bring life to them all. The full force of the support of life is yours in any of your choices. They are not available more in one than another.

The best choice, dear one, is the one in front of you. The one most immediate and at hand. And if others appear in similar fashion they are your choice as well. Not necessarily one at a time. All service, all paths have beauty and support and blessing and enrich both the server and the one served. Have no preference. The preference is a distraction and an illusion, comparing one over another in this way. Structured service in what you call forms or types can be an illusion and a distraction as well, for your greatest service today may be to serve the understanding of another solely through concern and caring and counsel or just lightening the burden a little. But lightening it with wisdom and insight and the benefits of your life’s understanding and experience. Not that they see your enlightenment, dear one, but find joy in the burden lifting that they see more clearly now.

Every day is filled with opportunities of service that do not require the hanging of a shingle, so to speak, the declaration of “I am this or that qualified servant…this is my service,” you see, to be noticed. ‘Tis not the way of the master, dear one. It is and can be a glamour. You understand this, we know. For you are well trained and well versed in these areas of understanding. as the phrase goes, what you do with the little things is the measure of your character and your vision and your service. Be not concerned whether the larger things will be added; they will be. Life is mindful of all of its elements and its realities.

This we have spoken of today you already know. It is only offered as a reminder and encouragement. You have known these things for eons of time. The time has come to see yourself in a larger way. Unlimited in perception, capacity, and the ability to deliver that needed in any situation or opportunity of service. Perceive yourself and embrace your larger reality. Leave behind this old pattern and shell of limitation. Your spirit is grand indeed. Leave behind the old patterns. They serve you no longer. Step into now the light and the grace of your beauty. This done with dignity, humility centered in peace, yes, and even pure being. Attainable, dear one, for these realities you already are and have been ere so long.

Your service will not be pigeon-holed into one form or another. It will not work for you. It is not your nature. It is not your memory or your historical pattern. You are universal being and your service is universally adaptable to the moment. Be an example of this for others as the time arrives for them to leave their limiting patterns behind, the ones they have outgrown. Show them there is a larger way with greater freedom and joy.

We gently enfold you and support this reality for you. Service, yes, dear one, but with new and larger understanding for that is the service that is needed in this time of change, this movement into new ways. Leave behind self doubt. Define and identify limited thought and perception and deal with it successfully. Your victory in this way speaks well of the movement of human consciousness on the path that lies just ahead for humanity. Humility does not mean minimizing the reality of who you are and your contribution to life. Humility speaks more of being in harmony with the flow.

We are the Brotherhood of Light, saluting you and honoring your inquiry and your journey. You are loved without ever a pause. Namaste, dear one. Janu and the Brotherhood of Light speaking as one once again.

Awakening 5: Patterns

JANU: We are including in this morning’s journey patterns of awakening. There are rhythms in your life that attune you to realities. These are, for the most part, subtle but can be noticed and embraced more fully. There are pulses to life. Witness your heartbeat; attuning to it, you are aware of it all over the body. There are energy pulses to the patterns of life which can be sensed, engaged, attuned to, and replicated. Your own True Nature is a living reality. How else do you become incarnate and find harmony with other patterns of living?

Awakening is such that becoming conscious of its presence is part of engagement and the acceptance of its reality, becoming more and more aware not only of the presence but your true identity. This speaks of oneness. How, on the one hand, from human experience, people are to separate one from another and you have a unique identity, with borders. But oneness is a reality beyond borders and, in a sense, your life touches another, growing in the reality of being connected. How can you be an expression of the one life and not be connected with every part of it?

Recognizing patterns of energy, consciousness, of understandings, and contributions both given and received is ‘awakening,’ our brother. What then does one awaken to, when the process occurs, but all of the elements of life? It takes individuality, uniqueness, the modification of patterns, mutual influence, collaboration and cooperation, timing based upon harmonies created through individual and collective evolution, and creativity for life to continue. Being a conscious contributor to the flow of life and its unfoldment has a pattern that is powerful. Nothing you gain is separate from everything else. Every experience and opportunity is an expression of so many others. Many so-called original thoughts and creations were the product of many others, and they exist in the symphony of life that is being written moment to moment.

What is ‘awakening,’ then, our brother, but being conscious of all of the elements of life giving together, with their own patterns of existence touching each other. Consciousness is a choice to be directed, enhanced, modified if you will, and shared. Being at peace, true peace, with a patient and loving nature prepares you for harmonious relationships and journeys into exploring life. As you can see, awakening has many layers, many realities, and many opportunities. The journey of lifetimes. Whether incarnate or not, life continues. Namaste, our brother.

Career possibilities

This is a question 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.

Q:        What is the very next “money making” or career move in my life?

JANU: Career moves, dear one, serve on many levels. The level, of course, is best suited to your particular level of interest for your life and for your range of desired experiences. The money making aspect, as you describe it, is certainly one level, but not the only one possible, should you allow your desires and your vision for your future and your growth to expand somewhat.

Financial reward has its challenges and its lessons. Envision, for a moment, what benefit you gain by this pursuit, this singular focus. Is your goal merely the possession of money or is there a level of happiness anticipated? Is there a level of service through this prosperity envisioned? Is there true sense of well-being achieved through this single desire? Does your love for yourself and others and life become fulfilled or improved, dear one? Does the money service these broader relationships with life? If your eyes and your heart are set on the financial reward primarily, these other opportunities for engagement in life must tag along behind at a distance commensurate with your appreciation of them, you see. No guarantees, then, that this single focus for reward will bring any of this. Many have chosen this path and amassed great amounts of what you describe, with little or no connection to these other rewards for living, and found themselves wanting for something else, discovering a hollow victory for their efforts.

This does not suggest the pursuit for financial prosperity is right or wrong, but it can contain or not those things of lasting worth as you choose. Look past this statement of desire in terms of “then what?” now that you have this money making career. Money making careers are not that difficult to achieve. They require little of you, in terms of character and depth. The richer and deeper rewards we speak of require everything that you are. You are capable of all of these. The patterns and opportunities for success in your request as stated are all around you. Take your pick. The forms of career matter little for the gaining of financial reward, if that is the only goal. This source would never suggest one form over another. It is your right and your opportunity to choose your course and gain the benefits of the wisdom of the path you choose.

An interesting perspective might be one that suggests that all financial or paper money reward can gain is what others are willing to give you for it and do they have all that you desire for this paper money, you see? For if your only desire is money and financial gain, your benefits are limited to its purchasing power. Some envision personal freedom through great wealth. One might well examine what is true freedom and can another truly give that to you. Are you free, then, if your freedom depends on another’s willingness to give you freedom for your money? Do not they, then, possess or control your realization of freedom?

This is an excellent question, dear one, for examination and exploration of possibilities and results of choices. Career as you describe might be examined on more than one level. The level suggested being one of careers as described or understood in the world of business. One might well examine the understanding of career in terms of the worth of your life journey in this world, its opportunities for growth, fulfillment and service, for consciousness raising. What is a career, then, dear one? Where do you set your sights for victory? Worthy considerations for wise investment of time and energy and consciousness. Is your career the world of illusion or transcendent reality or a merging of all realities? The fullest satisfaction and fulfillment is through the embrace of the career, if you will, agreed upon by you in the larger life in anticipation of this sojourn. One might do well then to listen to this understanding or design for living in this lifetime and look for opportunities for it to manifest and express and yield the reward that fulfills you beyond what others may have to offer.

We suggest these possibilities and perspectives, dear one, to inspire you to your wisest decisions and greatest success. The choices always are yours and this source would never suggest one choice over another. Know with a certainty and own this, dear one, that you do have a larger understanding and design for your life and it is available. It is your truest desire. And choices made in harmony with this understanding will bring you lasting reward. The natural frustrations felt when seeking understanding that seems illusive keeps the understanding at a distance. Decide to be in peace and confidence that the answers you seek lie within you and are available. But they reside not in frustration but in the peaceful union of the totality of your being. Love who you are and the opportunities of life, that this understanding be revealed to you.

Instant healing

JANU: You inquire this morning as to the immune system and the nature of instantaneous healing, the forces involved. We would address this in this way, our brother.

First, understand, structure in nature, the existence of the physical body, all of its systems, and the life that supports all of this maintains its integrity and patterns of existence. Every part of the body, every cell, its entire structure exists in more than one reality. The physical part of this system of life is the least causal of its condition. The True Nature of the physical is more etheric, and beyond. The link between these patterns can guide the existence of the physical, can be interfered with or strengthened by consciousness, intent, behavior. The so-called miraculous or instant healing occurs when a loving consciousness embraces these patterns of existence and coordinates them, energizes them, harmonizes them, so that the link between the physical existence and the more subtle patterns of existence become strong, uninterrupted, and balanced. Some call this “the power of love” without understanding its nature.

The love that perpetuates life creates manifestation and your existence is always present, our brother, and can be focused, holding your systems of life in embrace, intensifying their communication with each other, and pattern matching. So, when it appears that one is healing another, it is the presence of love in the nature of your being that is the power that accomplishes this. Intellectual understanding of this reality is not enough but the presence of love is the so-called magic here. Loving yourself, our brother, is not selfish. It is enhancing who you are and your service to life, of which you are a part, can realize its potential, which includes instant healing.

Now, be aware that the beginning of healing is instantaneous. The manifestation of the healing can vary. The process of healing is miraculous, worthy of gratitude and patience. Live your life as if you were well. This opens the pathway for the process of healing and change. Focus your attention upon the victory and live accordingly. Namaste.

Flexibility in your life

JANU:    For this morning’s journey, may we assume the position of explorer once more and reach into the fabric of life. The patterns of color, light, the currents of life are a tapestry in constant motion, evolving and morphing, if you will, into unique realities. It is well to see the human existence, a lifetime, in this way. Nothing fixed, permanent, concrete, except life itself, which is changing but always present. Choosing to see your life in this way frees you from dominance of any one pattern. Dominance in the sense of limiting your awareness of countless possibilities and the freedom to choose them.

As you build towards your future, allow this flexibility in your perception, in your plans, in your expectations, and even your achievements, for they can be seen on so many levels, in so many ways. The theme here is flexibility in your relationship, not only with your life but with your nature as well, your perception of your nature. And as you achieve this, allow this in others, in your appreciation and understanding of their life.

Now, patterns can be built and sustained but not natural for them to remain so, for the life that they are is in motion. Flexibility and stability co-existing as one, allowing for each other, depending on each other. Not just physically, but your thinking as well, your emotions, your philosophy and perspective, and what you hold true in the manifested life.

Many with beliefs hang on to them as anchors in a troubled sea, but are inflexible until forced to see differently. But even in this scenario, much is learned, experienced, and wisdom gained.

Consider your relationship with the reality of being flexible, changing and in motion, understandings that come and then are replaced. Your greatest strength and peace is to be in motion with life, adapting, perceiving in new ways as the revelations arrive, adaptability and the strength it offers. Now, flexibility is not suggested as changing with the wind or by the whims of others, but with wisdom and the inner guidance of who you truly are. Consider this carefully as being added to the principles of life that you value. Namaste.

Human potential

JANU: We are encouraged to see the ‘shake-down cruise,’ so to speak, of the human journey. Much is being shaken out, allowing more energy and attention to be placed upon the true strength and foundation of human potential. We see parallels of this course in the societies of other worlds, some to come, some already there. Make no mistake: the opportunities for further advancement will still be there.

Much might be gained by those in humanity that are so inclined to discover the truth of the potential of humanity. Some might say, “How can this be? It is yet to manifest.” That may be, but it is still reality. And the consciousness of the Now can perceive this, supported by the patterns of achievement so far. Some dismiss what seems to be fanciful imagination, not seeing its creativity and power to create. Ask the question to yourself and to others: “What is the human potential unfolding?”

You ask about overpopulation in the presence of human potential and ask, “Why does this exist?” It is based upon the desire in humanity to continue to exist in the face of losses due to disease and wars and neglect. This pressure to produce will soften when human potential manifests a more peaceful life. Those who hunger for power and manipulate life to selfish ends, by whatever banner they fly, will find little opportunity as human potential manifests in a peaceful direction, respecting life, cherishing it, and understanding its genius.

Reach into the vast repository of what can be. Shine the light on it as it blossoms into being and enriches life. Some speak of ‘saving the world.’ The best way to accomplish this is to awaken to the truth within you, the potential of humanity to enrich life. Namaste, our brother.

Archetypes

JANU: This evening we speak of archetypes in all venues of life. An archetype, then, being the perfect example of a form of life, a type of consciousness, a spiritual being. Now, by ‘perfection’ we mean harmonious, balanced, simplicity in function.

Now, within each one, even in the fundamental elements of life, there is symmetry and evolution. The collective human is an archetype. It regenerates, adapts to changing conditions, improves itself and creates, protects its progeny. Now, can our archetype have within it patterns to master? Of course. This is evolution.

What we are saying here is that life itself is an archetype. These challenges in being are not faults, mistakes. They are patterns of evolution. The archetype here is the potential of life to be realized. So compare not one with another as to their status of evolution. Life is not in competition with itself. Its potential lives all through it and everyone contributes one way or another so the archetype of life is your nature, lives within you.

Help everyone see the potential within them. They are one of life’s miracles. Namaste.

A larger perspective of oneness with life

JANU: We are remembering when the Earth was young, and that life is ageless. Species came and went and life went on. And the life stream of souls came into view, manifested to match conditions, circumstances, environments. First existing spiritually as worlds were forming physically. The plan has always been to populate life with life’s own creations and countless realities. These changes in creation are still continuing.

These brief moments of sojourns are puzzle pieces in a larger picture that is still developing. What is evolving here is the management of sojourns’ elements merging with a consciousness embracing the larger life. The patterns and plans of life are not finished but still being created. You wonder of timetables for creations, completions of cycles. Your perspective should always be tempered with timelessness. Allowing your life, your sojourn, to unfold free of the pressures of timeframes, for the patterns and plans of life are not limited by these yet always changing.

So, as you move through your life dealing with all that offers, focusing on goals and your own plans, hang not onto them so tightly you miss the natural flow of life and the flow of changes, new perspectives, changing goals that accommodate, are at one with, life’s movements. Your life being part of it. A larger perspective of oneness with everything.

You are correct. As you seek to be at peace, realize that pure love of being and of life brings a grand peace that already exists. Be at peace with yourself and life. Be patient with everything. Be alert and notice what there is to understand without fear of engagement. Namaste.
