Inner Lineage Of Consciousness

Neville's Inner Vision

The names are not a record of places or people outside you, but a map of your inner country. Canaan represents your continuous field of awareness, and his sons—Zidon, Heth, the Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgashite, the Hivite, the Arkite, the Sinite, the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite—are inner dispositions, habits of mind, and identifications that have taken root within you. Each tribe is a pattern of thought you have believed to be real: memory, opinion, desire, doubt, or a sense of self. The genealogical list becomes a census of your inner states, inviting you to observe them without judgment and to see that they arise within the field of consciousness you occupy. The force behind all these states is the I AM—the eternal awareness that creates reality through imagination. By recognizing these traits as part of your inner world, you can invite harmony, unity, and guidance to govern them, transforming conflict into a single, purposeful self.
