[tmtranscripts] On DNA

[We're all getting our DNA enlarged so Rachel wanted to know:]

RACHEL: I'm just curious as to your thoughts of this DNA activation.
TOMAS:  My thoughts?
RACHEL: Talk from your perspective.

TOMAS:  My perspective, as a teacher, then, is that you do well to expand 
your DNA and allow yourself to experience an expansion of life.  You have 
given yourself permission to be altered.  You have asked the universe to 
cooperate with you in the adjustment of the mind and your body to accommodate 
you for more thorough and greater awareness.  You have given permission to 
dispense with the old and allow for the new.  You have protected yourself in 
a shield of love, confirming that the presence of God surrounds you, allowing 
you to feel greater safety and security in His presence.  Your very cells 
respond to this attitude.  The fibers of your being are affected, and that 
includes your DNA.  

The limitations of your material existence are alterable only to the extent 
and in the framework that they have been diminished and yes your DNA was 
diminished in not being recipient of the full benefit of your adamic strain.  
And so the pattern that was intended for you would include those capacities 
which you have perforce been deprived of, but we are engaged upon a 
correcting time and as you yourselves seek to restore yourselves to the 
condition that you would have known had there not been the default and the 
rebellion, you would be seeking to be restored, even in your genetic and 
cellular composition.

You are not in error to command yourself to be the best that you can be, and 
it is never discouraged when you reach for something that many could construe 
as a miracle. You may or may not actually have your chromosomes and DNA and 
molecular structures reformulated, but your desire to engage in your 
capacities as you were intended is fully realizable, and yes, you are 
confirming your right to extend yourself and your desire to express yourself 
in the most optimal conditions. Your exercise in an elongation of your 
chakras is another example of your willingness to be extended into greater 
realms of reality.  

When you have exercised your will to do these things, you are confirming your 
desire to be all that you can be, and your exercises are not discouraged 
because they represent your will and well you know, your Adjuster is always 
subservient to your will, and when your motives are to be perfect, your 
actions are made a part of the greater good.

Have I addressed your question, Rachel?

RACHEL: Yes.  Thank you.
TOMAS:  My pleasure.

THOROAH:    It almost seems that it's as much ritual as anything else, but 
our activation of DNA, chromosomes and everything else does not make you more 
spiritual, but becoming more spiritual,in effect, has the same effect as if 
it had actually happened.

TOMAS:  Astute.  Perceptive, Thoroah.  Yes, it is a ritual but I was not 
going to be the one to say so.

THOROAH:    Well, of all the things I'm learning about symbols and the 
language that you already alluded to tonight that represents, to the best of 
your ability what you're trying to say, symbolism is very important, so 
ritual is just another form or expression of a desire, as you said.  A ritual 
doesn't have to be bad.

TOMAS:  It is a testimony.  It is a sacrament, if you will.
THOROAH:    Like a baptism.

TOMAS:  Yes.  And these acts and rituals are representative of your belief 
and your yearning.  You make public testimony of your yearning when you 
engage in such formulas, and that includes group prayer.  It is a form of 
socializing your beliefs and it expands your fellowship.  It is yet another 
active participation in grasping the knowledge of the one to augment your 
own.  It is not negative.  

It is like a roadmap.  If you look at the map and it tells you how to get 
where you want to go, you have it then in your mind as the route you are 
going to take to get from here to there, and all of these roadmaps are 
helpful in your sojourn, for if they lead you into greater reality, you have 
benefitted, and if they should lead you down a primrose path, you will have 
benefitted because you will have become closer to the perception of God as He 
would be known.

THOROAH:    I found the imagery to be very powerful.  That, combined with 
faith, I could feel a bigger vibration field.  At least I imagined I felt 
that, but the reality is that that is the trick, if we can get our minds and 
our faith and our imagery going in the right direction, it creates reality 
for us.

TOMAS:  There is another dimension to that as well, Thoroah, and that is, it 
is necessary for you to follow through with the attempt to expand yourself.  
The drawback to some of these symbols and rituals is that they render the 
participant a passive participant rather than an active co-creator.

THOROAH:    Like it's their own kind of fix.

TOMAS:  Yes.  As if looking at the roadmap had enabled them to arrive at 
their destination.  And if there is one thing certain, it is that your life 
is to be lived, is to be experienced, and not just perceived.  And so you 
must do the exercises.  You must utilize the energy of those testaments and 
if you expect results from your faith, you need to put your faith into the 
results.  Like Stillness, which could also be called a ritual. If you don't 
practice Stillness, you lose the comforting connection which gives your soul 
strength and divine light.  You can't experience a moment with God and expect 
it to suffice forever.  You must continue to seek God.

I am reminded again of my word "service" and how it is that you must grow 
weary of these exercises in perfection, but you who allow yourselves to feel 
the ever-present lure of the divine Indweller, are drawn back again to regain 
your strength, vitality and enthusiasm for loving service, and you do not 
grow weary.
