The genius within

JANU:   It is true. There exists within each one the genius of lifetimes and more. Reaching within one’s own being is with a desire to awaken, to become consciously whole again, to endure and master the challenges of life successfully. Experience brings wisdom and each one, in their True Nature, retains such wisdom. Wisdom applied to the moment awakens further insight into reality and its many faces.

Now, understand this: that whether conscious or not of the genius within and the True Nature that retains it, it is there, has always been there, and is available. The challenge and the opportunity exists with each incarnation, each lifetime, each journey into the ‘third’ dimension, of which there are many and to which your True Nature exists. This reality is so close and present that it would astound you how available it has always been. For even if your True Nature has yet to experience a part of life, it has access to it, can attune to it and discover its reality. We have demonstrated that. Any question on any subject with a true desire to know can be responded to with wisdom.

The current conscious awareness does not reveal all that you are. You have a larger life, always have, and always will. Each lifetime physically is temporary but you are not, for life exists ongoing, ever changing, ever evolving, and ever creating. Find fulfillment and freedom in the moment with each revelation and diversity of being.

There are no secrets in the Larger Life. That is an illusion of the limited third dimensional consciousness, for all of life knows all of life. Be the evolving genius that you are with each footstep you take on this path of awakening to the Larger Life. Namaste.

Mastering the many faces of identity

JANU: The focus, mastering the many faces of identity, a profound treatise on a consuming journey of discovery.

The role of identity, for most, is to establish purpose and to master that purpose, to benefit from it, to display and to compare with others. Identity becomes a central focus for most, not seeing it as a transitory reality, temporary but with purpose. Identity becomes the focus for understanding, skill development, personal relationships and alliances. Identity has the scope that results from exploration, experimentation, and discovery. Identity offers peace of mind, to a degree, identifiable traits and development.

Identity gives recognition to individuals, to each other. It’s similar to accepted names, unique to a degree, different enough to reveal diversity. Some identities are cultural—skills, talents, types of personality, racial, gender, performance. They are a limitation as well, for the common roles of each identity have their limit, their range, their inclusion. Some envy or long to be the so-called identity of another, in terms of many things—profession, language, culture, economic, appearance, even ego—not appreciating their identities as limitations.

There are some who explore alternatives to this, learning new professions, new skills and talents, exploring deeper meaning and revelation of their own True Nature, who they are beyond physicality, social norms, nationalities, and, yes, even gender. This is the journey of awakening, of becoming more realized, gaining access to previously achieved understandings and abilities. The challenge is letting go of one to gain something larger that includes some of previous, becoming more a conscious collective of possibilities, creations, experiences, life journeys, with a growing ability to see this in others, whether physical or not. For they realize there is a larger Life than social humanity. It is all around them, all part of the one Life which is ever-changing, evolving, creating.

Identity is temporary, but with purpose and opportunity to focus on a path of exploration, of wisdom-gaining, and of service to life. Understanding such as this opens the door to patience, tolerance, and contribution. Find peace in this and liberation, freedom to be whatever you choose from the opportunities that come your way. Namaste.

World conscious of & living its potential

JANU:    As we focus upon the beauty inherent in the potential of life, we notice this manifesting on other worlds, one in particular. No one lives in fear or anger, but has gratitude for the promise of challenges and opportunities. For they are keenly attuned to a life lived in the promise of potential. Their peace is in the form of enthusiasm to discover, evolve, create, connect, and experience and understand love of life. That means each other, for they see each other as life manifest, life in motion. Their existence is joyful, with well-being, filled with vitality. To them, life is a presence, a partnership, responsive, intimate, and revelatory.

Humanity has this potential, with moments of experience, but the plight of many, recounted so often, is discouraging. Therefore the need to discover one’s own True Nature and see beyond the din of anger and frustration. Those consumed with the need for power do not understand True Power. Their power model takes from others, rather than enriching them, for they are isolated in their identity and do not realize the rest of life is their identity. Growing into this understanding is restorative in so many ways.

The Larger Life understands this and assists where and when possible without violating the order of life: its symmetry, its diversity, its potential. Individual realization leads to group realization and the journey into the Larger Life. Be in peace and namaste.

Being ambulatory in consciousness

JANU: ‘Ambulatory’ comes to mind. Not just in the physical sense, but in consciousness as well. There are correlations in life patterns. All of life is connected. What does ‘ambulatory’ look like in consciousness? It is the freedom to move in any direction, to explore and discover life everywhere. Time and space not an obstacle but an opportunity. Exercising this freedom strengthens it.

Explore your interests with wisdom that the True Nature possesses. Be at peace with the results, and understand them. Explore life’s connections and their contributions. Be sensitive to the ripples and currents of life. What seems like chaos and randomness has purpose, outcomes, consequences, and opportunities. Reach into the fishbowl of life and experience it. Be open to identity that is larger and larger, more inclusive, more ambulatory, more free. Understand challenges and perceived limitations as opportunities.

All of these come into play, and more, when exploring other worlds, other realities, and your own nature. Remember, each one you meet is life in motion. Cherish everyone. Namaste.

Individuality and oneness  

JANU: The sense of individuality seems to give purpose to existence. The sense of individuality is part of the incarnate experience due to the veil. The reason for this is focus and the evolution of life itself. The individual, so to speak, is motivated as the driving force for evolving. The True Nature and the monad are the evolving life principle throughout the creations occurring in the realms. The sense of individuality is a healthy vehicle to experience evolution.

The isolation of the veil allows for the assignment of failure and frustration as to the nature and actuality of these outcomes. But this is a limited perception. Allowing reality to unfold in a peaceful but committed manner allows for continuation.

See identity, then, as not so much a separation from the rest of life but as an expression of the Larger Life, the source of being. Namaste.

The nature of coexistence

JANU:    Coexistence,  then, the theme of your inquiry, is a subject that is transcended beyond the perceptions of individuality or borders or limitations, yet includes all of these in a symphony of life which, in its way, coexists with realities beyond framework. To be conscious in this way is possible in short glimpses as to the nature of existence. The infinite diversity of life expression is one in the sense of the source of existence, which is not contained in any framework of perception. Coexistence is understood by the reality of consciousness that can exhibit and contain, in a sense, collective reality as a unity of the diversity of life.

So let us proceed with a glimpse of this. Your True Nature has explored this understanding and experience and shares this. In the direction of pure being, to be at-one-with the diversity of Life and its eternal nature in the sense of without beginning or end. It is Pure Being, beyond any limitation or perception of not being. Time is an expression of limited perception, with the purpose of enriching life with a frame of reference for the unfoldment of evolution.

An expression worthy of exploration is: What is essential nature that is not separate from any expression, any reality? One can almost sense the vibrational reality as a tone. It has a ring to it of being life in motion, beyond perception. The source of manifestation in every dimensional reality, beyond any judgement, beyond merit.

This is but a glimpse to remember. Namaste.

Understanding True Nature & incarnation

JANU:   Exploration, as you have requested, evolves to the journey of the incarnate existence of the True Nature. This companionship, if you will, is the synergism of life expressions, the ripples and currents of which foster evolution, creativity, and consciousness. The sense of being is expanding. Its nature timeless. Its capacity to become “our,” in the sense of the elements of consciousness and being, is a relationship of life in motion. By this is meant: conduction of the vitalities of existence through the conduit of incarnate journey. Performs as the expression of life.

Part of being is expression, which is the Breath of Life in the sense of realization of potential, product of desire to understand. As understanding evolves, the flow of life is patterned with these understandings, which is enrichment. As this progresses, it evolves more than the word ‘Life’ can embrace. The language of understanding is increased, allowing the formation of new life patterns of being.

Patience, collective order and symmetry are sorely tested from the incarnate perspective, which identifies with time and the extent of a sojourn. Experiencing and understanding the concept of the veil is in its infancy. The veiled signpost as a separate thing is continuously created and maintained by the being. The veil is the being ensuring forward progress of awakening, in harmony with the maturity of the incarnate life.

As desire matures, so does patience and wisdom. The wisdom to appreciate and experience more of life for one’s Nature. Patience does not suggest being inert, but being in harmony with the natural flow of the evolving consciousness and its relationship with serving life and being served. Continue to listen, inquire, and understand. 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.

Elements of freedom

JANU: Freedom is where the inquiry, the wonder, and the knowing are one.  To wonder is to reveal. To imagine is to create. To be is to evolve. To serve is to be served. Growing is becoming. And peace is harmony.

Choosing freedom is liberating into ongoingness. Consciousness flourishes and this enriches life. The True Nature is omnipresent. Experiencing life feeds consciousness, which feeds creativity, which evolves life. Be at peace and namaste.

Freedom

JANU: Freedom is a concept and experience strange to many still identified with life patterns gained through incarnate life. Freedom belongs to the True Nature, your spirit. It is always available although you are not always conscious of it. Choosing freedom puts incarnate life in perspective, reducing frustrations and dissatisfaction with dimensions. Experiencing freedom liberates consciousness from fixed patterns. Not only seeing them for what they are, but understanding their nature.

This process of liberation and perspective includes an opportunity for many. Not seeing the woods for the trees, so to speak, identifying with incarnate existence, civilization, and nature is confusing. The nature we speak of can be put in disarray, as well, by the behavior and life patterns of civilization. Life is a conglomeration of many paths. These experiences are a part of evolution.

Each one is free to desire change and awakening to the Truth of Life. Much sorting out to do. With each challenge, begin anew and be free. Namaste.
