The Merlin through Paul Walsh-Roberts - 28 February 2003 - Haumoana, Hastings, New Zealand.
Indeed and greetings, beloved masters. I am the Merlin and I come to you representing the Masters in Light. And we greet you all representing the Masters in Embodiment… coming to know your mastery, coming to know yourselves; expanding into a greater self-knowledge and a heightened self image.
There is much to be learned through these times of vast changement. Without your openness you are limited in what you may learn and therefore limited in what you may express into your world and how you may assess your world. There will always be newness. Evaluating that newness is crucial to your path forward. Each of you is a portal for Divine Intelligence, Divine Light, power, love and wisdom to be expressed into your world. It is through your very thoughts, through your lips, your movements, your intentions that this flow is enabled. It is why, beloved masters, we who stand in Light and come to you at such occasions as this are eager to remind you that indeed you are the Godforce itself. You are the manner in which the Godforce expresses in your density. You are it. You are not seeking it, you are seeking the awareness and understanding of it. You are vastness coming to know itself through all of this learning and changement.
One of the most simple requirements is that of laughter, for the entire course of events. Your own expansion is indeed to be taken seriously, for it is real in your evolutionary path, but it is not to be taken solemnly. For you know, beloved masters, heart-felt laughter is the only way you will find a sustainable peace in your world, and without sustainable peace so will the balance, so will the commitment to your own divinity become beyond your reach.
The intention is that you would enable yourselves to embrace your wondrousness, your greatness. It is natural to you; it is not natural for you to not know of it! The image you hold of yourselves is but a misunderstanding. It is not real, what you see in your world is not real, it is merely an idea of reality. It is only the beginning of reality, of reality itself. You see you are the creators. As the humanity moves forward and as each of you moves forward, it is to understand that there is no other force in your world but yourself. How you experience that relies solely upon how much of that force you wish to acknowledge and embrace and how much you wish to deny yourself.
As we come to greet you as Masters in Embodiment we understand that, in its truest sense, you may find that you are not experiencing the Master that you are in truth. But you see, it does not alter the truth of your divinity, of your masterful self; it only alters your experience of it. The fact that you do not know it, or that you do not believe it in your deepest depths alters only your experience. So you see, the path is to open to your deepest depths. That will happen by the opening initially of your heart self. Allow it to be filled; filled with the unknown, and then express it in ways that are adventurous, that promise self-knowledge, that promise expansion, a greater knowing. In that way you will come to know yourself, your Greater Self. You will become real, actualized.
You will come to now that as this vast force is channelled through you, each of you. It is executed in your world as form. It is called Creation. And you are all experienced at this, though it be somewhat without your full knowing. Understand that as this vastness, this force that is within you and upon you is directed into your world, the form it takes is determined by your motives. Always attend to your motives, beloved masters. To know yourself, to know your motives, to allow your motives and understandings to evolve, that is to allow them to grow in a manner that presents you with a greater image of your divinity, of your self-mastery rather than one which is diminished into fear, into a sense of limitation or need. These are the qualities you are transcending through this time of changement. You will transcend need through your acceptance of responsibility for each and every moment. You will transcend limitation through the acceptance of your divinity, of your godliness, of your power. Through the elimination, the willing and vital elimination of your self denial; you shall come to know the truth of your greatness.
You see, not one of you is particularly important. Do not misconstrue this greatness. It is simply a matter of fact. You are not important, you are vital to the course of this changement. It is why we come to encourage you to harness yourself, to know yourself; so that through all that appears and all that disappears, you are still in the greater knowing of your motives and your purpose that you set for yourselves. When your motive is towards love, irrespective of your intellectual understanding of that principle, you send a vibration into the cosmos that magnetizes you to your divinity. When your motivation is based upon fear then so it is that you obscure your view; you obscure your understanding and diminish your ability to accept your divinity, your godliness that would otherwise become manifest in your world through it.
You are wondrous beings. The humanity is a wondrous species that has simply come to misunderstand itself and treat the misunderstanding as truth. You have misconstrued the purpose believing that it is to lock self into the limitation of materiality. But you have misunderstood or you have forgotten through the vast tracts of time that materiality itself may be transformed in order for you to expand and come to know your godliness whilst within it.
Materiality is experienced only in a single fashion in your world but as new vibrations of Light, new frequencies of the divine substance which is your material world, you will see that there is an entirely new world that is opening to you, an opening that happens if you wish in parallel with the world you see at this time. But indeed it is woven within the material of your world and as it becomes more interwoven, so will you see more of it in the materiality of your world. That divine material, that Light is loosely referred to as Love. Love will impregnate all things and you will begin to see the magnificent joy in material things including yourselves and your experiences. Allow yourselves to be delighted by what may have previously brought you even to your knees, certainly to your surrender, to your doubts, to your fears. Allow yourself to see the Light in such things. It will fuel your path forward. It is that delight, that heartfelt laughter amid the seriousness of the journey you undertake, that will enable you all to experience the peace that will liberate each and every one of you. It need not be the peace of your neighbour but the peace within your selves, beloved masters. Irrespective of the circumstance you see yourself in, experience it in order to see the joy that is in it; to realize that there is joy in it and allow yourself to embrace it. This is your path.
And since we are not properly complete as yet, you may have questions. We will endeavour to answer in a manner that is useful to you. [Pause.] Indeed, knowledge, all that you seek is within you, mark my words. How does this become a part of your journey? It becomes a part by your willing yourself to change. There is nothing that lies ahead of you that will come as certainty. That is the trust; that is laying your heart before you and that is the path that you will all find yourselves taking, to one extent or another. For there is no other portal that leads to your enlightenment. When you become enlightened in your world, you will see it in its joyous creation, its purpose; you will see it in all of its clarity and yourself in your powerfulness. You will exercise your power with wisdom and with love, and you will see a changed world as a result. It is a result of you. It is not happening for you or to you, beloved masters, it is happening through you. You are the appointed ones.
As you gather at this time you are a few of a large group, a great number of emerging masters in your world. This is the appointed time and you are the appointed ones. Being the appointed time may be referred to as Now for each of your moments, beloved masters, is a sacred opportunity, an opportunity to go more deeply within, to listen to your inner urges as the messaging from your Higher Self begins to become clearer and clearer, and to follow it relentlessly, with gay abandon, with humour. Indeed, take your journey seriously but not solemnly. Laughter, beloved masters, can be a very serious business for it is the creator of all things when it is harnessed with the motive of love.
You are the way-showers. You are the generators of a new world where the visionaries shall lay forth the plan, and the capabilities of all others with their expertise and their strengths shall enable it to manifest as a real world, not in theory but in experience. Your beliefs actualize in your materiality. As the winds of change reach you, beloved masters, you will become a part of this journey or you will stand back and you will watch it as it sweeps by. You are all capable of becoming a part of it, for you are already. It is a matter of continuing.
Emerging masters… indeed. I am the Merlin and I come to you representing the Masters in Light and we greet you representing the Masters in Embodiment… emerging masters, masters nonetheless. Light/materiality, materiality/ Light… little difference. Understand.
We greet you. We are with you; perpetually we are with you. You are never alone even in your deepest, darkest moments. Joyous choices, extraordinary choices becoming adventure. Greetings and welcome to your tasks. Welcome to yourselves, indeed… It is done.
