Encouragement

JANU:   The reality of encouragement takes many forms, with many needs for it. Encouragement’s source isn’t just one person to another or life circumstance or angelic force. It can be self-inflicted or processed from within someone. The observance of the success of another, their understanding and application through their basic ego-personality, life and lifestyle, through an insight from within from Life itself. There are blessings to be experienced everywhere and many go unnoticed.

Encouragement does not have to wait for the support of another. One can choose to be motivated and encouraged to try again, to understand more deeply, to benefit from insights into success or the stages thereof. Even from observing the creatures of the Earth and how they survive. Even the playfulness of animals and their beauty.

The message and music of a song that touches you, inspires you, brings a memory that you or another finds in a moment of living and of loving. The majesty of a symphony, of a flock of birds in formation, the rising and setting of the sun every day. Every chance to bring a smile to another, finding peace, encourages continuation.

The forms, the sources, the opportunities are endless. Reach into your vast resources and encourage someone, including yourself. Namaste.

Who or what am I?

JANU: Your query “Who am I?” or “What am I?” has been heard. The response is more in the line of  “What can you be?” For who you are and what you are is in motion. Every part of life is an option, and this includes beyond incarnate life. In fact, especially this, for all of life is not manifest. It is still evolving. So, perceive your being more in the direction of ‘becoming’ than ‘what you are.’ You are life in motion, returning to peace from a long journey in order to embrace potential. To describe ‘being’ in the terms of your query is a limited perception, which can be entertained, but to what end?

You are becoming. Life is becoming. Enjoy the journey of becoming Life. Be at peace with this.  Be open to a growing understanding and diversity of experience. Embrace the wisdom that is gained. Be an inspiration by evolving. Relate to others with love and respect and the patience and wisdom growing within you. Namaste.

Peace as a way of life

JANU:   Elaborate plans and desires confine the path of awakening to that complexity. Light and peace are not limited to complexity. They are much larger. Universal reality speaks to all of life. Refinements of application apply only to those applications. Reverse engineering these refinements as a path to universality, unlimited application, and creativity is a liberating experience.  Being free to be the potential of life means not being owned by any one expression or creation, free to know it for what it is and to recognize the freedom that allowed it. So walk the path of freedom and be. Find peace as a way of life, enriched by the Light, the Truth of Life, unlimited identity. Namaste.

The gift of peace

JANU:     Evolution in consciousness through experience and wisdom gaining is simultaneous journey of many different directions, for they are all part of the mix, the foundation building. So open the mind to the multi-path, the simultaneous motion of life. Interests in everything, in a natural way. Life is everywhere and no two parts of life are identical. The beauty of being is its pureness, its essential nature that touches everything, without preference or discrimination but with profound concern and interest.

Patience, persistence, the commitment, and love. Peace you bring to the world makes possible clarity of perception, process, understanding, and engagement. Witness the confusion in the news broadcasts. Namaste.

Understanding the Larger Life

JANU:    Living in the moment  is a prerequisite for manifesting the determination to awaken to the Larger Life, for that is the central reality to the journey of life. Past and future are the radiations of the moment. The reality of time tends to encourage past and future and present as unique realities. They are, within their domain, but there is more to this. These are elements of a larger oneness where reality is a more profound understanding.

Cycles of life relate to these. ‘Life’ is a limited expression.*  The word contains perceptions of beginnings and ends. It describes the cycles. Identifying with any of these is limitation, which is useful for exploration of these, but a limitation with a purpose. To be conscious in this larger way removes what might be called borders that describe ‘this and not that.’ Identifying with these is a limitation. But the perception of the elements of these brings wisdom through experience and enriches Life and fulfills it. Wisdom brings peace through balance and harmony to diversity. Let us enrich each other through this process, and this unites us in our perceptions. Patience is a powerful tool to explore all of this. Namaste.

Peace, choices, and wisdom

JANU:   We are once more intertwined in harmonious progression into the Light. The ‘richness of life’ has many interpretations, not the least of which is freedom to be, to evolve in harmony with life, mutually beneficial progression, rich in number and diversity and potential. At peace, yet commitment is sustained by discovery. Allow the experience of timelessness, of ongoingness, the discovery and realization of potential—a mystery that unfolds within you. We are one in this.

Life under the veil seems tangled, intertwined with cross purposes, mis-emotions, yet a longing for meaning, the truth, and love. Making choices has the potential for opportunities rich with discovery and the power to create everything that enriches life. Choosing wisely comes through experience, without condemnation or guilt or frustration. Being at peace is powerful and has equilibrium, balance, unencumbered with limited life patterns. Choose wisdom. Namaste.

 This is yet one more expression of the opportunities available. If you have not, you may wish to go back to “Allow opportunities to unfold in a natural way” to read it and the next two journeys.

Elements of the flow of life

JANU:    The richness of life includes every dynamic, every life pattern, every perspective, all of diversity, all creativity, all destruction and re-creativity. All of these creations, re-creations, re-cyclings, are the flow of life. In this way, life evolves, expands, enriches.

Peace is the harmonious playing out of all of this. So-called free will, individual and collective creativity are the instruments of life, among others. Nothing is lost. Everything is a gain in the all-inclusive Truth of Life.

A perspective that grows in this direction of understanding becomes a more conscious co-creator and wise participant. So engage life. Grow in understanding. Choose wisely. Open the mind. Expand the heart and love it all, for life is inevitable as is its movement. Namaste.

The nature of the True Nature

JANU:   Human consciousness, psyche, is dominated by the veiled reality. The True Nature does not have this limitation. It is conscious of, and as, many realities. Its life includes journeys into other worlds, other realities beyond physicality. It is a creator, to a growing degree, into the nature of life in harmony with many other so-called dimensions. It is ancient in terms of time, but timeless in larger realities, or subtle realities. Its reality is beyond individual beingness. Difficult for the human ego to grasp but the memories are there.

Remembering who and what you truly are has always been. Attuning consciousness is evolving in that direction. We are as close as a shift in consciousness and identity. Human reality is a small element of True Nature reality. Concerns of existence physically can seem overwhelming and, at times, insurmountable. But from the more complete perspective of the True Nature, it is very temporary. But wisdom is still to be gained there, along with contribution to the evolution of life.

To the human consciousness, physical survival seems like as important as existence itself. What we have encouraged here is the peace and confidence that comes from the reality of the True Nature and the Larger Life. This contributes to balanced perspective, reasonableness, wisdom, harmonious relationships, inspired discovery and creativity. Allow the consciousness of larger reality of being. Become a conscious partner in ongoingness. The range of one sojourn is not the concern, but the content for the experience is significant.

As one becomes conscious in this way, one becomes conscious of the larger life in others, which creates a strong foundation for tolerance, compassion, understanding, and service. Namaste.

Aggression and peace 

JANU: We are exploring the richness of life. Aggression seems to dominate the serenity of life for so many. It becomes the death knell of peaceful existence. Life expressions, manifestations, civilizations, people, if you will, challenge each other from a limited perception of life and their own True Nature. They begin this from fear for survival, for their model of success of survival seems elusive and achievable only through individual pursuit at the expense of others.

Awakening to life within reveals a confidence in the richness of being and that of the universal pervasiveness of the richness of life. It is a challenge to inspire others to discover this richness inherent in each one’s beingness. For those who are discovering this, it is an opportunity to inspire others that this richness is their heritage of existence. The theme here is ownership of the richness within that has always been their nature.

The elements of this exploration are to discover, realize, and incorporate these into the consciousness and into the life expression, further enriching, through existence and individual expression of potential, the further enrichment of life. This benefits everyone and helps in the realization of the power of peace. The price for this is to accept the opportunity and choose a change from limited to unlimited perceptions. These experiences bring understanding. Namaste.

Experiencing coexistence

JANU:   Yes, there is Light in everyone. Each one expresses it differently, for life has unlimited expression, creativity, and potential. All coexisting. The expressions of life evolve, enriching everything. Life is enriched by all expressions, all life patterns.

True peace is in harmony with all of life. “Is-ness” is experienced. ‘Right and wrong’ is a limitation. The Truth of Life, the Light, includes everything. Experience coexistence intimately. Namaste.
