Inner Gates of Consciousness

Neville's Inner Vision

These lines are not a map of distant gates, but a map of your own inner sanctuary. Eastward, northward, Parbar—directions stand for streams of attention you choose to entertain. The numbers—six, four, two—are not random tallies; they signify disciplined divisions of your awareness, each kept at the gate by devotion and order. By shifting your focus and imagining yourself as the porter, you acknowledge that your thoughts do not wander at random but are under the governance of the I AM present in you. Kore and Merari become symbols for different faculties—memory, intention, breath, worship—each serving under one consciousness. When you accept that your work and vocation are the same act as true worship, you practice holiness as separation from distraction rather than withdrawal from life. The presence you seek is not outside; it is the consistent, loving ordering of your inner states, so that life itself becomes a liturgy in motion.
