Finding joy in the evolution of others

JANU: Being in joy is not necessarily a function of surroundings, relationships, economies, technology, but one more of at peace with intimacy with the True Nature and the Larger Life. Now, the incarnate experience is part of that life. Perceiving it in this way in your consciousness opens the door to appreciate and perceive the elements of peace and the Larger Life. The incarnate life on this world represents struggles in evolution, struggles in perception, trial and error so to speak. It is life realizing the full range of expression and wisdom.

So look for endeavors of so many to improve their lives, to understand it more, to express their best qualities, to be kind to each other, to sacrifice, to give, and to enrich. These elements exist continuously. Look for these things and cherish them. They are more evident observing people than circumstances. The news media is biased, but contains some of them. Their proportion does not represent general reality.

Be sensitive to elements of goodness and integrity in the individuals. Allow blessings to support these qualities. That is a service, to bless goodness and desires to be free. Become sensitive to perceptions of struggles to evolve. Namaste.

Reason

JANU:   To employ reason in the midst of disorder begins with perception of one’s own thoughts and processes. The question is “What works for you? What is practical? What stimulates insight, breakthrough understandings?” It is a relationship, whether conscious of or not, between the personality, the ego, the incarnate mind, emotions, and other qualities and the True Nature and its perception and relationship with the Larger Life. Any unreasonable reality seems not in harmony with this. In other words, it doesn’t work for you…yet.

You will find that as you mature in wisdom and experience, the line between reasonable and unreasonable shifts. One’s consciousness matures as awakening becomes more inclusive. One can perceive the relationship of everything to everything. For as one forms distinctions between the two, one must grow in openness to be more inclusive in the range of perception as life as it is and is becoming. Final conclusions of observation must be in motion as well, to evolve in wisdom. Namaste.

Conscious union & identity expansion

JANU: The transition to conscious union  is a major expansion in identity. And even that identity, though extensive, is not the end of the journey of evolution, for even the True Nature, you see, is evolving. So the early footsteps of this journey is expansion of identity. This is a guided journey, not just by the True Nature, but by the rest of life, for everything—every level, every reality—is connected through the Source of Life. Being alone in your singular identity is a limited illusion, serving a purpose in the early steps of evolution.

This does not mean that the focus of identity is the only focus for this journey, but a basic one. It opens the door to many others. So we start here. The phrase “I Am” is a beginning key. Who or what is “I am”? “I am” refers to the expansion of being. We are one in this. Namaste.

There are many previous attunements on the theme of conscious union. Several are included within Human Potential and the Larger Life.

Identity of mind to universal oneness

JANU:     Mind is a term for ‘collector of life impressions’ but is limited to the incarnate experience and sensory input. Let us explore a concept of that reality with new meaning, larger meaning.

Consciousness is a state of being, of perceiving. But what is conscious? The term ‘mind’ does not embrace this. It’s an incarnate expression and perception, concept. What is conscious is ‘true nature’ and functions differently than incarnate mind. This is consciousness, this ‘true nature’ is more in the direction of oneness, the intimacy of oneness that leaves ego separation, any sense of borders or limits, to the incarnate perception. The True Nature is a more universal reality than the word ‘mind’ can embrace. Pure being is pure oneness. It becomes the reality experienced, perceived, understood in the sense that it is its oneness of being.

Higher and lower mind, so to speak, do not embrace this reality. They are a result of it, with a purpose of exploring an experiencing a part of life. Individuality as such does not apply to universality. But universality is. Putting your attention upon this connects you to it, liberating your identity from limitation into the connection of oneness and unlimited intimacy.

We will explore this further, as needed. Enjoy the beginning. Namaste.

Higher and lower mind comes from the writing of C.W. Leadbeater in A Textbook of Theosophy.

The journey home

JANU: Home is where you find it, for home is not just a place but a reality of being, which can be any time, anywhere.  The common desire by those who reach for the Truth of Life, the answers they seek, the ownership of being. It seems to nag at the consciousness and the emotions. Always there because it is the True Nature and who you are. Everything else is life in motion, realizing potential, and creating vehicles of expression. Never fully free of the pull to find home. The reality is that home coexists with all of these. Persistent desire penetrates the veil to understand. Each one’s journey has its own character, nuances, twists and turns, successes and disappointments, but the desire continues, as does the journey. Evolution and realization continue. Namaste.

Coexistence and the veil

JANU:    A demonstration and an understanding of angelic reality is part of the Larger Life indirectly influencing the so-called incarnate life. Demonstrates coexistence of the so-called realms of life. Angelic life is very responsive to the needs for their assistance.

These are not the only beings of the Larger Life that coexist with humanity and other realms. The Larger Life responds to desire, genuine and sincere desire. Human consciousness coexists with creative forces. Life is always aware and directly connected to all of its reality. The True Nature coexists in this way, with all of its being, all of its reality.

Overcoming the limitations of the veil is helped by the desire for conscious wholeness and an expansion of identity. It is not a permanent reality but created by the larger You. Choose to own and be. Awaken, guided by the wisdom of your Nature. Namaste.

See the Larger Life in others – Part 2

JANU:    Holistic and wholesome is the essence of the Larger Life experience as an incarnate being. The True Nature of each one is the Larger Life and the incarnate life as one reality. So, when perceiving others, perceive them as complete beings, wholesome beings, with a holistic experience. It is their nature, whether conscious of it or not. Sense them in this way, as complete beings.

They are worthy of grace and love, wisdom and peace. See everyone in this way. Understand their lives in true context with their Nature. Do not be limited in your perception by their apparent confusion, frustration, or anger. They are more than that and will discover it in time. Be the light of clarity as they have need of. Namaste.

Embracing physical reality multi-dimensionally

JANU:    Animation of potential brings light to the nature of creation. Physical reality affords this, you see, for the Larger Life to realize the nature of potential. Now, creation has many realities of modification, cycles of existence, smallest to the largest by way of the elements of various densities and interactions. Much of the Larger Life is demonstrated in the physical universe.

Embracing physical reality multi-dimensionally attunes the consciousness to the subtler realities and their potential. The process of experiencing and understanding takes time to assimilate for the physical life has time and space as components. True Nature explores this as a direct experience by incarnation. The Larger Life is not limited by these qualities but understands them and embraces them, gaining wisdom through direct experience. Namaste.

A messenger of peace thru understanding

JANU: Enormous responsibility lies at the feet, individually, of those who ignore the calling of their own True Natures, not because of punishment but by cause and effect. Ignorance is one thing, intentional destruction is another, but understanding and forgiveness coexist in the larger reality of being. This does not call for being judgmental in any way. Peaceful observation brings understanding and an opportunity to inspire and uplift.

The coexistence of peace and challenges can be blessings on the path of awakening. Humanity collectively has evolved, and is evolving. This path is not linear and must be viewed in a larger way to understand. An anchor is not to lose sight of potential, and this is under the purview of the True Nature. Be a messenger of peace through understanding. Namaste.

Make no judgments of worth as all enriches Life

JANU:     People do not realize, whether their identity is incarnate life or beyond, that life is enriched in any case. Being conscious as your True Nature during incarnation is an option in this area. Individually speaking, this is one point of view in a larger consciousness. Humanity is appreciated as a collective, a group with elements of influence and experience, but life is enriched by all of it, each in their own way and as a group. There are collectives other than humanity, some larger, some smaller, and they come and go. But life continues. Any part of collective consciousness can be elevated to a larger consciousness, expanding their perspective on enrichment.

The journey for each collective or individual is known. When one says ‘there are no secrets in the Larger Life,’ does not mean there are not unknowns from one level to another. Base not your observation of merit on differences between groups and individuals. They all enrich life. Be cautious about evaluating worth of one part of life from another. That is a limited point of view. The truth is much larger. Namaste.
