SEEKING; DISCARDING LIMITATION; Q&A.


The Merlin through Paul Walsh-Roberts - 28 March 1999 - Forest Row, West Sussex, England.


Yes, greetings beloved Masters. I am the Merlin and I come representing the Masters in Light. And we greet you, the Masters in Embodiment. For indeed, that is who it is that you are. It would not serve us to address you as anything less for we would not wish to endorse that part of you that believes it, who believes that you are less. And therefore we come in service.

We come to address your wondrousness. We do not come to address your limitations for they shall become addressed as a matter of course. The way you see yourselves and understand yourselves to be shall become addressed as a matter of course.

For so it is that darkness is not altogether a state of being in itself. It is not a state of understanding. Darkness is a lack of light. In itself it is not substance, it is a lack of the substance of light. Darkness cannot come in and vanquish what is light; however, light can be removed to leave what is darkness.

Well so it is that you are transforming beloved Masters. So it is that fear is not a real state of being, it is not a method by which you are able to understand the state of living. It is the state of lack of understanding, lack of the knowledge of life and of yourselves that is the state of fear. It is not something in itself, it is the lack of something. But so it is that the light is coming in. Yes. The understanding is coming in to vanquish the ignorance. Yes.

It is a curiosity of the humanity at this time that it goes about seeking something that it believes it is not. One person of you wishes to be one thing and another person of you wishes to be another, neither of which is what you are seeing yourself or believing yourself to be. Well to let you in on a little secret beloved Masters, you are seeking nothing that you are not already.

There are those of you in your studies and in your manifestations of spiritual evolvement who wish to manifest your divinity in some way, or your Mastery. But it is already in place, beloved Masters. That is why we address you as that. It is not something that you are required to create from yourself, or an idea for you to manifest. No it is not. It is already in place. All that you are required to do – and this is very easy beloved Masters, very simple indeed – is to push back the barriers that you have created to shield yourself from that magnificence so that you can see the fullness of who you are in truth; of your full standing in the cosmos that recognises that part of you. That fullness, rather than your diminished selves which are holding yourselves in the darkness, bathing in your limitations. You are wondrous beings. You are capable of this. Well in fact you are already doing it. It does not shed too much light upon things too suddenly however.

And so it is that it is a gradual step by step process to come to know who it is you are; to push back those barriers you have created, the walls you have built between your image that you have of yourself and the truth of who it is that you are; between your diminutive self and your magnificence. You are simply opening your hearts to embrace that fullness of Self rather than leaving in place the walls of self denial.

But you see, you have become comfortable with your limitedness. You have become addicted to your control scenarios, yes, and to your limitations, to the belief that you are not altogether capable and that you are not potent. But we are here to dismantle, we are here to cut away, shall we say, those patterns of self denial. Yet they are embedded so deeply within all of you that it is more comfortable for you to be understanding and believing that you are somehow limited, for you are familiar with it. And so it is that gradually the knowledge and understanding of your Mastery comes to you, piece by piece so that you can learn to wield the tools, the benefits, the instruments, the understandings that it brings with it.

If you were to integrate the entire understanding of yourself instantaneously it would not serve you. It would indeed be to the detriment of your materiality. The influx of pure light to yourselves would be destructive to the structure that you are at this time. It would dissolve the pathways of light that enable you to experience what it is that you are experiencing, rather than expanding them gradually and allowing you to adapt to the different realisations and the different views of yourself and of your world; the different images you hold of yourselves and of your world.

And so we come in service. And on these occasions beloved Masters, it is with great joy that we come. For it is becoming more and more crucial that we come and contact you directly, each of you; that we put our own signature upon your heart directly. Yes. For as that signature is put upon your heart, so does it seal into yourself, into your system of believing the knowledge that the core understanding that who you are expanding to embrace is indeed yourself – it is not a figment of your imagination or something in some vague potentiality. It is not potential anymore, it is there already. You are simply expanding your limitations to embrace it. That is all.

But you know, discarding limitations is not altogether comfortable. To discard limitations at an unnecessarily great rate is also potentially to the detriment to your own materiality. So you see, you are undergoing a delicate process. Nonetheless, you are within it; you are learning it.

Much of what you are dissolving is what you have carried for millennia, but that does not matter. It matters what you are carrying as its meaning to you now – how it manifests for you at this time in your lives, in your activities, in your practices, in your understandings. Understand this beloved Masters. We ask that you listen to this clearly; that you listen to it with both of your ears; that you listen to it with your mind fully. But also beloved Masters that you listen to it with your heart.

It matters not what you do. Any greater being that you might imagine to have some aspect of command over who it is that you are being; any God or any guiding light so to speak; any of these has little or no interest in what it is that you actually do. Since that is the case, why would you not choose to do what is true to you, what it is that would make your heart fly, what it is that would bring a song of great fulfilment into your heart rather than what brings a lessened degree of light, that which makes your heart plummet?

The reason that there is little concern for what it is that you do is that it is not at all the issue. The issue is how it is that you are responding to your world. Not what you are doing within it, but how you are responding to it. That is your path. It is not in doingness, it is in beingness.

You see, your centre of feeling – that which is your heart – has become deadened. It has become frozen. The self denial, the disallowance of who it is that you are capable of being, has enabled you to become feelingless, so to speak. And so it is to relearn that. And so as your moments come to you – and indeed you have created them for yourself for that learning, for this emergence – bring you jewels and you cannot notice what these jewels are in each of your sacred moments unless you are able to feel them. And so it is to practice your feeling. Yes of course, there are times when what it is to feel is meaningless to you because indeed you have pushed that aspect of yourselves far back. It has become unimportant to you upon your little journeys. But be aware – your journeys are expanding; expanding to embrace that magnificence. And you know, just as darkness cannot embrace light and remain darkness, so it is that limitation can not embrace magnificence and remain what it was. So step by step beloved Masters step by step. Yes.

Each of you, everyone of you, yes and your kindred Masters in Embodiment – we work with you all. It is a process of, as you would think of it, systematically coming to each of you, coming to each of you and touching; touching you directly. And as the contact is made, so it is that? what is your phrase?? it is signed sealed and delivered, indeed.

So much self denial. You have pushed aside aspects of yourselves – the visionary, the creative capacity of yourselves. You have pushed aside that aspect so that you are not able to see beyond your problems as the visionary aspect is not running strongly. You are not able to even see the solutions for the creative aspect has been pushed so deeply that it cannot be reached so easily. Instead you are left with the aspect of structure. Yes, the aspects of structure, the aspects of action. And so it is that structure, action and actualisation tend to inhabit the same sphere of experience and perpetuate each other. For structure comes to infiltrate what is newness and allow it to become repetition, and the repetition becomes actualised. That is the part of you that is identified as masculine, and you are all it. But you have pushed aside that part of you which is feminine.

Yes all of you have pushed aside the part of you that is visionary, which is the creative one, which is the embracing one and so you are all walking around in circles as though one foot is locked in place and the other believes it is going somewhere. But you know that foot is now being uprooted and we are here to assist you with that, yes. We shall pull and pull. We shall assist you, yes. Your legs have gone deeply into the quagmire but at least one of them is running.

It is a joyous time for when you extract your other foot – when you extract that part of yourself which has anchored through denial, which has set so deeply in the quagmire that you cannot reach it – then both of your feet shall operate, beloved Masters, yes. And it is when both of your feet are operating that you can determine where it is that you are heading, instead of just going in circles. Yes, wondrousness.

All right. Indeed, I am the Merlin. I come representing the Masters in Light and we meet with you, the Masters in Embodiment. What is it now that the Masters in Embodiment have within their hearts as questions? For you know there are steps by which you come to understand yourselves and steps by which you become capable of receiving the light – receiving de-light, receiving understanding, enlightenment – to vanquish your darkness. And each of these steps, each of these snippets of information is tailored to what it is that you are believing yourself to be at this moment. For as we have said, it does not serve to explode your shell of limitation but rather for it to dissolve gently; to move backwards, to fragment and to become irrelevant to you.?Indeed several questions……

Q: Good evening Merlin. As you know, I always have questions. First and foremost, may I thank you so much for being with us on this occasion and could I ask that these two new additions to the household, these two amethyst geodes be blessed, as you had kindly blessed the other crystals on our last occasion.

They are already blessed beloved.

Q: Thank you.

As are you beloved. As are all of you in this room, else you would not be.

Q: Now I have a question about DNA. My understanding is the DNA of man, the genetic code is changing and that those now born into this world have a new genetic structure. However, I have been given a symbol to be used with Reiki for restructuring the DNA. I have not used it yet but should I use it?

What do you feel in your heart beloved? Why is it that you feel apprehensive? You see, it is not to restructure DNA – that is not what you are all doing. As we have said you already have in place what it is that you require; you are expanding yourselves to embrace it. What you have is the tools by which to manifest what is there. It is not that your DNA has not already changed, it is that it has not manifested in your world for you to experience at this time. It has already changed. The most significant change you can make at this time for all of you is indeed to invoke what is the magenta-pink vibration. With the magenta-pink vibration does not come an alteration or an addition to your DNA, but what does come with it is the means by which it shall be actualised. It is very significant for you and it works at deeper levels than you can imagine.

The symbols that you understand to work with your DNA structure are another method, a geometric method, of translating what is magenta-pink light. It is vibrationary, as is any symbol. Wondrousness, yes?

You see you all work differently with different tools, and so it is that they come to you in a way true to you, a way that is usable for you, for each of you. It is because you have a different fear matrix to dissolve so that the new matrix of creation might express itself within you and through you. You are individual. You are uniqueness. That is why it is a little different.

And so why the reluctance, beloved Master?

Q: Fear issues.

Indeed… fear matrix, yes. You see it manifests differently for each one of you. You see, strictly speaking we do not come to you as you have thanked us for on this occasion. It appears that way to you, beloved Masters. We come to you in a way that you are able to relate to but we do not come to you literally for we do not wish to become enmeshed in your fear matrix. We touch the surface; that is about it.

The old matrix – the methods by which you have created your selves and your world and allowed yourselves to study the phenomena of yourselves and your world for that matter – is the passing matrix which is based on fearfulness and it supports the idea of limitation. It condones the idea of control and need and they have become addictions because whilst that passing matrix is in place there is nothing else for you to utilise. That is why this matrix of love – the new matrix of creation – is available to you now. It also comes to you through the vibration of the magenta-pink light which activates it within you.

Q: My want has always been to work for the highest good of myself and also of others, and given symbols of which I have little apparent understanding…

Little knowledge….

Q: Yes. Fearful of using symbols on others…

Well it is not the fear of the symbol or its effects beloved, it is the fear of the lack of knowledge…

Q: In part yes…

Then relax beloved… Listen in your heart. As we have said apply your heart to the issues within which you sense doubt. Do not apply your mind, apply your heart. It shall begin to speak. Yes indeed, you are all a little rusty, shall we say, on that front, Nonetheless, you shall learn. You shall find that you adapt rather more rapidly than you imagine.

It is not to look for answers, it is to look for assurance. And that is in the heart, beloved Masters. It is not in knowledge. Knowledge is able to be tampered with, assurance is not. The assurance that you feel in the heart can not be tampered with by anyone. And so if you do not feel it then do not recognise it; assume that the assurance is not there. It does not mean it is not, but it is important that you respond as though it is not.

So listen to your hearts. That is where you shall know what is truthfulness and what is not. You shall not learn that from factuality or actuality, as you think of it, for it is neither. Is it not intriguing?

Q: Am I correct in understanding that the mind resides in the heart and not the head?

Well you are speaking geography beloved? they are not as separated as you would think. Neither are your mind and your heart. You feel as though they are but they are not. You are structured as if they are but they are not. They are constantly enmeshed and interacting. That is truth. Try to see it from outside your existing perception.

Attempt to see yourself as an integrated whole rather than a structure of pieces. We understand that you have learned to see yourself in such a fashion – it has been reinforced over and over, and over and over and over again within yourself. We understand that. But it is not necessary. Attempt to see yourself as an integrated whole.

Do not separate yourself and resist the temptation to separate yourself from anything else that you understand to be. That is how you shall most rapidly come to terms with your new DNA beloved. For within the new DNA, in the expanded and, more to the point, accelerated strands is the understanding that comes to you in a ‘toolbox’ of benefits – methods by which you shall see and work with your world that you had not had occurring to you at all until now. Just allow them to expose themselves to you.

Allow them to actualise. It is a new aspect of your masculine selves but nonetheless it shall come to pass. Allow yourselves to have this wondrousness begin to express through you.

Be patient but also be anticipatory. Yes, be joyous and enthusiastic. Understand that each of your moments is sacred for it does indeed hold a great and wondrous gem. You have created it to learn. To discover it before its true time would not be useful for you as you would discard it and say “What is that?” If you were to dig in your earth for diamonds but you had not learnt what a diamond looks like in the rough then you would find that you would be digging and digging and discarding what were diamonds simply because you would be seeking your idea of a gemstone. So you see, when the time is right it becomes exposed to you.

You shall look around and you shall find that you have been digging and digging within yourselves for what it is that you seek but you shall have already found it; you just did not identify it. Yes. Then you shall have grand appreciation for yourselves and what you have achieved to date without your even knowing. In fact, shall we say achieved ‘without your efforts’, for you had believed your efforts have been exerted in a different area for a different reason. Ha, wondrous!

That is why we see you as Masters – you are Masters of what you are doing and you don’t even realise it! Wondrousness! True magnificence. We do not wish to accompany you through the process of realisation however. Then again, we are looking forward to the time at which you shall exchange your knowledge of reclamation of that Mastery. This is the great emergence, yes?? Be prepared to relinquish the parts of yourselves that have limited you – the patterns of need and control – for you do not need them. Yes the patterns of limitation shall all dissolve in the face of magnificence expressed. Indeed, and there is a cosmic heart that shall sing, mark my words. The cosmic heart shall sing; you shall hear its music.

Q: Merlin, can I ask a question? I recently read a book on the Arcturians and it said there is a mother ship around the Earth…

‘Mother’ of a ship… There are more than one, beloved. But nevertheless…

Q: In one of the chapters it mentioned that a lot of the people have to use on a regular basis some sort of unit that transforms the negative energy that they pick up from our planet.

On the ships beloved?

Q: Indeed. I wondered if there was anything that we could use to help us?

You already are, beloved. It is called your body. These beings do not have the body that you have. When they accumulate the negativity which you are mentioning they do not have a body by which to transmute it. That is what you are doing, yes? And so they use artificial means, so to speak. But equally, they do not wish to be merged with your density. Who would?! Actually beloved Masters, there are many who would. Mark my words. What it is that you are experiencing is extraordinary. And so we jest. There are many.

There are vast numbers with their attention upon each of you and all of you in these times of great emergence. As the light transmits through each of you more strongly, through your world of darkness; as the intelligence transmits through each of you, through you into your world of ignorance, then so it is that these beings in light are able to understand what it is that you have been experiencing. For otherwise, beloved ones, they have not been able to see. And so we are learning.

All of these beings in light are learning from what it is you are doing in transmuting this negativity in your embodiment. Yes? that body is your technology, so to speak.

There is much assistance. There are many beings who find it a little distasteful and a little disconcerting to be immersed in your density, but nevertheless they are in service. And as we have described several times, to be of service beloved Masters requires that you hold the responsibility of your own vibration as high as it is capable of being whilst you assist another to do the same. That is service. That is why these beings who immerse themselves in your density do not wish to become ‘dense’, so to speak. They are within your reality but not of it. And indeed they work with you? yes, the Arcturians. But here are many. They are all in service. Yes, they come maintaining their highest vibration and the are assisting you all to realise and maintain your own. That is why we all come in service.

Beloved Masters, that is why and how you shall be of service in your own world within your humanity. Not by denigrating your own vibration or compromising yourself in any way but by standing fairly and squarely in your truth in every given moment.

For each of those moments is indeed sacred. It is an opportunity by which you shall learn to stand in your truth. Yes, indeed. It may seem distasteful at first but the ‘trick’, shall we say, is to go back to your sacred space and to cleanse that energy from yourself just as the Arcturians would do.

Do not resist the advancement into what would otherwise conceivably be distasteful circumstances. It is your light that is required, not your compromise, for it is when you stand in the darkness and radiate that the darkness ceases to be. It does not serve you to stand in the darkness and plummet into it allowing your light to falter, to dull. Then the darkness is left. The darkness remains and that is not the purpose. Is this of service?

There are many beings, mark my words. You shall all see for yourselves. You see, as you move forward, so it is that these realms of beingness are moving backward, allowing your veil – the screens which you have up around yourselves – to be pushed back and back and back without any disturbing surprises. That is really the point.

You have already expanded beyond anything you have achieved earlier. The reason you have not embraced for yourself experiences that you believe lie beyond your veil is that they have been pushed back with you and you have assimilated them gently? the ones that have been available to you. You have brought to yourselves a greater expanded awareness but it works at levels that do not necessarily fulfil your minds though parts of yourselves which ache to be fulfilled are indeed achieving, that you shall see.

All right. Acknowledge that you are wondrousness in embodiment. Go on! Give it a try. Try it on for size. It might be a little big at first but allow yourself to flounder around in it for a little while and it shall become a little more comfortable. You hall expand and grow into the clothing, so to speak. Yes, for you are those ones.

Very well. And we shall step back. It is a joy to be with you for we are here to touch you. That is all that matters? we are here to touch you, beloved ones. Although that may seem meaningless, though that might seem a little subdued for you, it is what is required at this time. It is the contact beloved Masters which actualises all that has come to you. We thank you. You are magnificence. We are understanding that. You are not yet! But you are capable. You are capable of what you have not capacity to imagine at this time. When you do. you shall blossom into your divinity expressed in your world untethered. Yes, then you shall appreciate yourselves a little more. You are wondrousness. We greet you. We greet you to your tasks.

Q: Merlin, could I ask that each and every one of us this evening? that we ask for an acceleration of the lifting of the veil and that it be granted for each and every one of us to enable us to realise our magnificence?

In each of your hearts each of you may ask for that? [pause]? Ask for that now. We gladly respond. What is altering is not your physicality but your idea of your physicality. What is altering is not yourself but your idea of yourself. That is where we work.

Greetings and we thank you for these opportunities as well. Sit for a while, beloved Masters. Be. You are greatly loved indeed. Greatly. Smooth? hmm.
