GRATITUDES
"Diana, You have had the biggest most beautiful and loving footprint in my life since I was 22 and my first encounter in a group session with you and the Merlin. My life has been so lovingly shaped by the alchemy I experienced that day, and so many encounters after, completely shifting how I experience and take in life. Showing me everything has meaning and the meaning of everything is I’m living in a benevolent universe and all things are acts of love.
The amount of help and guidance and love you have given me throughout my life is beyond anything I can measure. And when I went through one of the darkest and frightening initiations where I felt lost and alone, you lovingly guided me back to love and light and laughter too!
That everything is something beautiful coming from God has been the greatest gift I could ever receive in this world. There are so many things in my life I would not have been able to accomplish without your guidance and love. I am so grateful for you and the privilege of knowing you and the Merlin.
With so much love for you,"

“I am blessed to be on this journey with all of you. Every day some grip loosens, I make a course correction, I forgive, and I am in reverence; all because of these teachings.
I breathe differently, speak differently, and love more frequently. I am so grateful.”

“The Merlin work articulates deep truths within that I knew were there but could not access until now.
This work carries me forward helping me to show up in life more fully having somehow released prior subtle burdens. I am so grateful to be alive!"

“Why do I love The Merlin? I think love is an appropriate word. Being part of The Merlin's orbit and receiving his guidance and teachings have benefited my life exponentially. The four pillars of his work are Love, Light. Laughter and Liberty. This sense of being known and simultaneously loved creates a freedom to be as I am. It creates a lightness within and a deeper sense of self-acceptance.
I have discovered that my favorite form of humor is to laugh at myself. Merlin uses hyperbole, exaggerating some of my qualities, which I find hysterical. That laughter loosens all the places I am carrying resistance in my life. The upshot of this is that I become lighter, freer of inhibitions, releasing more illusions and accessing greater life force and joy. The Alchemy he carries is magical.
As self awareness increases, I can recognize when woundings from the past that cause sadness, surface . I can bring that heaviness into my heart where the truth of compassion and love reside. To be able to resurrect oneself from the past conditioning is Liberty itself. He calls this raising the Seeds of Discontent and expanding them into the Light.
The Merlin teaches about the many forms of "free love" and "unconditioned love" available in the universe and how to tap into these sources, to receive them and experience great benefit. He is the poster child for one foot in heaven and one foot on Earth. As I find myself being pulled closer to Heaven, paradoxically, I am also feeling more embodied. There are many more reasons why I love the Merlin and love my connection to this masterful alchemist. But for now, I think that's enough.”

“As the Merlin spoke of my present life, it was very clear that he knew me. He described my current situation better than I could have done myself. My soul was touched and I immediately began to cry tears of relief and love...he understood the real me. Merlin also shared some of my past life experiences, which helped connect the dots to my current spiritual path.Saying my reading with Merlin/Diana was life-changing sounds cliché, but is true nonetheless. Having a reading with Merlin/Diana was blessed, peaceful, and uplifting. It was an experience I’ll never forget and certain to do again.”

“Blessings Dearest Diana, may you continue to manifest the Sacred in all ways known and unknown. You are our beloved way-shower as you speak the truth and wisdom of the Merlin, our graceful emissary from the Great Mystery. Your essence fills my heart as you emanate an expanding light of consciousness. You are a beacon devoted to illuminating our souls. Thank you for your destined path as an alchemist of the highest good. You embody, as the Merlin Speaks, a golden orb that shines from you and through you, as our most sublime Lioness, so beautiful, loving, and true. Love and gratitude.”

"I have been a participant in the Merlin meetings and meditations for approximately two years. This outlines a few of my results:
A deeper love and understanding of myself. A deeper love and understanding of my fellow man.
A deeper love and understanding of all things.
I would call it a deepening of my Spiritual journey.
Reorganizing of my thoughts to support me instead of going against myself.
Less gossip about myself and others.
More of a gladiator of truth.
A positive force of communication instead of holding back to make others happy or to look good.
An upgrade in emotional intelligence.
More authentic.
An exceptionally large amount of appreciation and gratitude.
There remains much to be open to receive because I understand the Laws of the universe. There is more work to be done.
I want to acknowledge the work of Diana Summerland as she shares her talents, wisdom, open heart, and gifts through MERLIN. We are all so blessed to have said Yes!”

“Over the last 30+ years I have explored the teachings of a multitude of spiritual masters and embarked upon deep dive journeys into many spiritual disciplines.
All of those have greatly assisted my evolution. However, none of those paths comes close to delivering the powerful and profound guidance that I’ve received over the last 5 years from working directly with Master Merlin through Diana Summerland’s brilliant ability to cleanly and authentically channel his wisdom and eternal truths.
Today, I feel more comfortable in my my skin than ever before... and I know in my heart of hearts that who I’ve become is incredibly well aligned with my true soul design... and that I’m walking the path daily that resonates with what’s in my highest and greatest good.
If you’re looking for a clear source of deep wisdom and authentic truths to assist you on your unique journey, look no further as you’ve found what I suspect will likely be one of the most helpful resources you can possibly imagine is available to you.”

“The Merlin has made it possible for me to know myself and experience the world in surprising and delightful ways. I have been a spiritual journeyer and serious student of the Divine energy channels for decades. I have traveled the world seeking knowledge and tools that are keys to ending suffering and promoting peace and happiness in myself and the world. Each stop along the way has gifted me with wonders.
As I work with The Merlin I become able to embody and implement those wonders. Einstein said “no problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.” The same is true of the possible personal and collective future. To create a different world; a world of kindness, equality, integrity, love, and generosity, I have to be in a different consciousness. We collectively need to be in a different state of consciousness.
The Merlin describes himself as an Intention of the Alchemy of Consciousness. That intention has created in me the potential to resolve and dissolve problems. As my consciousness elevates in frequency, the Universe dances with me in a whole new way and solutions, resolutions and creations arise seamlessly. I now see and experience the world and myself with more wonder, more reverence, and more joy than ever before in my life.”

"The teachings of the Merlin have opened the passageway for me to meet my destined union with the Mystery, as it unfolds in my daily life. It is the source of the known and unknown, that weaves
itself through the challenges and inspirations I embody. It is the bridge of truth, light and unconditioned love, that connects me as a human to the divine.
The Merlin as an emissary, guides me to release my holds on fear, to trust and surrender to the present moment, and be free, a choice I wish to make. Through this process, I have been given a gift, the key of receiving and sharing the radiance of love, healing, wisdom, and transformation.
The Merlin has gently instilled in my heart and soul the grace of welcoming in the reverence and beauty of all life, an ongoing journey of filling and emptying, and the deep gratitude for what is given.”

“In the short time I have been involved I would say that Merlin is helping me to see what is right in front of me; My own Divinity. I have been working on "love of self" for the past few years and the way that Merlin communicates is so clear. I feel a frequency upgrade when listening and relistening to my own personal reading with Merlin and Merlin's teachings to the Lion Hearts. His teachings penetrate my soul.
Enlightening, Clear, Soul Warming, Comforting, Transformative.
Thank you for all you do to improve the world!”

“The Merlin has guided me to my true self and my heart bursts with unconditioned love.
The Merlin has taken me, step by step, into the Great Mystery—I will never be alone again.”

“For me, people work with The Merlin because we can feel his kind and benevolent energy when he shares his wisdom. It’s easy to hear what he says. It lands easily and piques my curiosity and awe. In fact, whenever I listen to his meditations, I always pick up something new I didn’t hear before.
The Merlin also opens my eyes (including my 3rd) in ways I never saw before. His perspective is refreshing, heart-opening, spiritual, and FUN! His tonality resonates easily and deeply. He’s not pushy but clear in his articulation. The concepts “land” with grace.
Here are some words that come to mind: Thought-awakening, Heart-opening, Life-changing, Love-Inspired. He comes from the Highest and Greatest Good and I can feel that. Even though he is spiritually oriented, for some reason it makes sense and does not feel “woo woo”. I LOVE his sense of humor.
I think this work changes lives because of its gentle nature. No lecturing, only genuine and authentic teaching. I feel safe in his presence. (How could you not with Diana channeling his energy? PERFECT match if you ask me!).
He explains complicated concepts in easy to understand ways.
Thank you Miss Di… for your wisdom to know it is time for The Merlin to be heard and seen.”

“My journey with Diana and Merlin began in the late 1980’s. Ironically, she and I might not have had the words to describe it then, but we spoke the same language. Looking back, I realize we recognized each other, not yet knowing the full depth of our connection.
My first reading with Merlin pierced my heart in a most unexpected way: there were the words I was hearing and there was the phenomenon of receiving Merlin’s energy which triggered an enormous release (lots of tears) but, most importantly, I gained a new understanding of a lifelong tentativeness in myself.
I enjoyed the next few years accompanying Diana to group channelings and participating in healing circles with other leaders. Always we were surrounded with an energy of effervescent joy and delight undeniably generated by Diana and Merlin. And always there were reverent discussions of the value of Merlin’s messages as we processed our experiences. Diana takes seriously the journey of our souls.
For the next few years, our lives took us to different parts of the world and into wonderful, fulfilling experiences. Three years ago, Merlin and Diana reached out to invite an amazing group of people to participate in advancing Merlin’s teachings. What we’ve learned is literally mind boggling as it takes us outside the familiar, neural pathways of receiving knowledge and into direct energetic communication which, we are learning, is opening the pathways to individual and interpersonal alchemy. One might call this phenomenon spontaneous growth. Merlin has named our group The Lionhearts, and I feel privileged to be a part of it."

"When I read the transcript of the Staff of Freedom in June 2022 I had a consciousness shift when Merlin talked about the staff being wrapped in my Will, Divine Will, and Highest and Greatest Good. I felt them as one. It unlodged one of my seeds of discontent that to serve God I must suffer on some level. I was so moved - I was hitting my imaginary staff everywhere. I didn’t know at the time that many Lion Hearts had actual physical staffs. So everywhere I was hitting my staff, all over my house, Highest and Greatest Good, I’m on the subway in NYC, Highest and Greatest Good, at work, Highest and Greatest Good. Everywhere I could, even if I wasn’t literally there, I would imagine hitting my staff there three times, Highest and Greatest Good for me and everyone involved.
Three days later I had this dream where I was in this room with all these other people but I saw them more as beings. Now I think I was seeing everything from a spirit level. There was this beautiful fire. It was the only thing that had color in the dream and it was all colors but mostly green. It was a magical and powerful fire. In the dream I was being given a staff because I had reached a point where I had achieved some mastery, where I was able to to handle the energy that comes with this staff. Like a graduation was the feeling I was having.
The dream was so magical that words can’t really describe what I was experiencing and feeling. It was so incredible and beautiful that I had to wake myself up so that I would remember it. This isn’t something that I have ever done before. I knew even in the dream that that was remarkable that I was doing it. So I woke myself up and lay there, elated by what had just happened.
This whole experience was so moving that I thought and contemplated it almost every day and the multi-layered meaning of it. The waking myself up from the dream was a symbol to me of waking myself up from the dream of illusion. And it was also symbolic that one part of myself was sharing something with another part of myself that hadn’t always communicated with each other so openly. It was also something very concrete, letting me know it wasn’t just my imagination, because of the many shifts that were happening that were other worldly in my life.
The end of October Diana was going to be on the East Coast in Massachusetts doing a group reading. Afterwards, some of the Lion Hearts were going to go over to another student’s house for a potluck. At the end of the evening, another student said, “I have a gift for you.” It was a staff, a staff of freedom that she had. I could hardly believe it. It was the dream that I had in June that had moved me so much. The dream that was so profound, just got even deeper. I didn’t realize that I was having a dream about something that was to happen in the future and that I had actually already known the beings I experienced in my dream.
I didn’t think it was possible that this dream that had moved me could go even deeper. Life has become so full of magic this last year.I wasn’t even planning on going since I live in NYC I don’t own a car and thought it would be too difficult to get there, but a week before the event I was meditating and heard Merlin tell me that I was to go.
Now I understand that everything was in perfect order because it had to be a completely surprise event. Two things I planned on doing, didn’t happen and one I didn’t plan on doing, I actually did. One more example for me of trusting in life’s process and that everything is perfect.
I’m so grateful to Judith and Diana and all the Lion Hearts for all of this coming about and helping me on my path of awakening, taking me deeper than I could ever imagine. Feeling Reverence for all.”
