Olive Doors of the Inner Oracle

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's heart-vision, the doors are not timber and gold but states of consciousness chosen in the mind. The olive wood is humble perception—a receptivity unadorned by pride—through which the inner oracle might be entered. The lintel and posts as a fifth part of the wall remind you that boundary is created by you, by where you decide to stand in imagination. The carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers are inner images you consent to glorify; you gild them with your awareness until they reflect the divine law you already claim as your own I AM. Gold laid on the cherubims and palms is the alchemy of feeling: you drape your visions with the substance of conviction, not doubt. When you enter, you are no longer outside the sacred room but inside the hall of your own consciousness, where presence answers your call. The doorway is your decision to believe that God is now present within you, and your true worship is the consistent, vivid assumption that the oracle speaks through you here and now.
