Foundations of the Inner Temple

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the scene as the drama of your own consciousness. The king is the I AM within you, issuing a decisive command that you take as law. The great stones are fixed beliefs; costly stones are sacred values you choose to honor. The hewing and squaring of the stones represent your discernment, shaping rough impressions into precise, usable forms of thought. The foundation of the house is the bedrock of your being, the inner temple you intend to erect by aligning feeling with imagination. The builders—Solomon’s and Hiram’s—show how inner talent and divine guidance cooperate to manifest form in consciousness. Remember: nothing external is laid until the inner foundation is secure. When you dwell in the awareness of I AM, you are building from the inside out; the presence of God is the clarity of consciousness that holds the vision. Stay faithful to your assumption, revise what does not feel true, and feel it real that the temple already stands, for true form follows the certainty you sustain.
