The Merlin through Paul Walsh-Roberts - 17 December 2001 - Hope Island, Queensland, Australia.
Greetings beloved masters. Yes indeed, indeed you are masters. I am the Merlin and I come representing the Masters in Light, one voice the voice of many. We greet you all representing the Masters in Embodiment… representing many, hmm. It is so.
A vast gathering, though you may see yourselves in the form that you appear to be taking. You are simply a hub, yes, around which there is a great gathering of light. You are all a vital portion, a single vast intelligence. Without any of your individual sparks then that vast intelligence would be incomplete. That is why we say you are vital.
There are great forces of creativity. There are many in embodiment who see themselves as lacking in creativity because there is not an overt expression of that creativity in the arts, for example. But it is simply a matter of your perspective, hmm? – your interpretation of your creativity. For in truth, beloved masters, you are creative force simply by virtue of the fact that you are creating.
Creativity is who you are, it is your natural state. Without it you would not be existing in the manner in which you see yourselves and presently understand yourselves to exist. You are the force of life. You are at the cutting edge, shall we say, of the force of creation. All that you see as reality is indeed behind you, albeit by an instant, for it is the product of all that has preceded the moment that you believe you are experiencing. But since you are at the cutting edge, beloved masters, your apparent reality does not determine what lies ahead of you. You determine what lies ahead of you.
We encourage you to live in your moment. When you are able to live in your moment, when you are able to detach from what was or what may be in order to appreciate and to interact with what is, then so you become more and more towards sharpest edge. That is the purpose. You might call it ‘authentic indifference’, hmm? Not a pretend indifference, not a spoken indifference, not simply a shrug of the shoulders, beloved masters, but an authentic indifference to all that surrounds you. That does not mean that you are not interfacing with your reality; it does not mean that you are not interested in your reality; it does not mean that you are not compassionate or that you are not loving. It means that you are not motivated by the circumstances that seem to prevail, for they are in the past as we have said and they do not serve you nor your motivations to what you are beginning to create by your actions and words and your beingness right now. Authentic indifference, hmm. You might call it ‘A.I.’ though at this time it appears that your species sees that as Artificial Intelligence, which is in truth a misunderstanding in itself for an intelligence cannot be artificial, hmm? It can be inhuman but it cannot be artificial for it is simply intelligence. It is indeed the manner in which humanity interprets its reality that determines how it may move on from it in order to create something of greater fulfilment… and that is exactly what you are all becoming increasingly aware of.
We the Masters in Light gather with you and work with you in order that you would reclaim that knowledge, that understanding of yourselves and enact it in your world. When you see that you created all that is, then you become indeed detached from it – authentically indifferent towards it. And so it is that you will be able to move on.
You see, change does not come about, beloved masters, until you have completed your experiences. Completion comes about through this authentic indifference. When there is a need to hold on, then you are no longer indifferent. When there is need to let go or to escape an experience, then there is not indifference, there is not detachment. You are able to create all that is, all that you wish, all that you long for, in absolute abundance, instantaneously and with ease when you are able to cast the burdens of your attachments, your needs, your fears, your misinterpretations of yourselves, of your world and of your potentiality. So when you wish for change to come about, beloved masters, do not become frustrated at your reality for not changing, but rather understand that you have not yet completed what you are experiencing. You may bring about that completion through developing you authentic indifference, hmm? That is when you will become motivated by what is within; by your heart-felt desires – and by heartfelt desires, beloved masters, we refer to the wish for that which will be assisting your learning; the desire for experience and learning; the desire for that which will advance your evolvement – rather than your heart-less desires which will serve nothing more than to hold you back – those desires which are motivated by your attachments; by your sense of need, by your fears, by your belief in your limitations. This develops a requirement within you to become discerning about your own inner qualities, to understand your inner polarities.
Do not concern yourself with polarities and the conflicts that surround you, for as we have said, indeed, they are the result, they are not the cause. The cause is within. When the humanity has learned to take responsibility, to acknowledge and accept that it has created all that it is experiencing, then so it is that it will step into the vastness of its potency and realise that it is not the victim of what is occurring but rather it is the architect. They can then go about designing that which is for greater fulfilment, not only for self but for one and all. But you must become indifferent, beloved masters, to what appears to be.
Observe your moments. Live in them and use them as springboards towards your dreams or what you feel most deeply to be of the greatest learning, of the most wondrous, fulfilling experience, simply because you are alive. Give yourselves endlessly to… devote yourself limitlessly to each moment, whether it is work or play, hmm? Bathe in the stream of creation which you yourselves have set in motion and call life. Enjoy, hmm? Appreciate what you have created. Whether you particularly like the look of it or dislike the look of it, appreciate that you have created it. For whether you like it or dislike it, or consider it right or wrong, you have nonetheless created it and that in itself is an expression of your mastery, be it misguided by ignorance or be it truly guided, authentically guided by your knowingness, your intelligence.
It is a time of vast changement of which you are all a part, a fundamental part, hmm? It is so. We come to meet with you in this fashion in order that you would observe yourselves a little differently; observe your thoughts and your perceptions a little differently, step by step. As you observe that part of yourself a little differently, you have expanded your self awareness. Thereby, piece by piece, you will begin to rebuild, begin to reclaim the fullness of yourselves rather than maintain the ignorance of yourselves by being in denial of yourselves, denial which has brought about so much of the distress that humanity is experiencing. It is a vast power to wield, it is so. But to wield it with understanding and awareness will bring vast fulfilment. To wield it in ignorance will bring vast difficulty, will bring vast pain.
You cannot relinquish your power, you can only relinquish responsibility for it. But nonetheless, it is your power. Whether you deny it or utilise it, it is your own choice, but in truth you are all responsible for it. Begin to dream your dreams. Begin to have faith in your dreams and in yourselves. Dream of what it is that will bring the great song into your heart. Do not become overly occupied with what appears to be. Allow yourselves to think outside what you see as your reality. At every moment, ask your heart where it truly lies, hmm?
Alright, beloved masters, as we come to interface with you, we remind you that we are all family as such, hmm? You are vastness, you are wondrousness, you are magnificence in embodiment. That you do not see it of yourselves does not alter the truth of it, only your experience of it.
And so beloved masters, if you have questions we have a little time, hmm? As amusing as time is… you are the ones who are playing with it. Hmm, indeed…
There is much to be said for not knowing, beloved masters. Knowledge in itself can be a little disturbing, even a little dangerous, hmm? For if you rely on knowledge then you will never have enough of it, hmm? And to not have all of it indeed means that you will be, shall we say, playing the game of life without a full deck, hmm? Yes. Developing understanding, beloved masters, will bring you back the command of your lives. When it is that you deeply understand the working of natural law, the workings of cosmic law and you apply them to your own lives and to yourselves, and come into alignment with those laws, then so it is that you will find that knowledge as such is obsolete. Understanding the workings is what is required for it is the understanding and the living in the workings, living by those laws and in alignment with those laws, that creates true knowledge, the knowingness, beloved masters, hmm. It brings about experiences and phenomena, which become called knowledge and fact… which are immediately in the past. Hmm, this is the thrust of your evolvement – coming to learn of yourselves, of the expansiveness and the limitlessness of yourselves. Yes, indeed.
So it is that we shall fly, hmm? You are never alone, beloved masters, and you never have been. In your darkest moments, when you have deeply been within yourself and felt that there is nothing else, is when you have been least alone, mark my words.
I am the Merlin and I come representing the Masters in Light and we greet you all representing the Masters in Embodiment. Emerging masters. Masters, nonetheless. We simply call you to your tasks and to your understandings. We welcome you to your journey, your deliberate journey, not your accidental one, hmm? Yes, greetings. It is a joy to make this exchange. Greetings, indeed. It is done.
