Doors of Inner Temple

Neville's Inner Vision

The doors are not mere wood but the threshold of your inner temple. Fir wood speaks of humble form; the folding leaves reveal that your boundaries are flexible, able to yield to the light you imagine. The carved cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers are inner images you sustain in consciousness—the sacred symbols of holiness, vitality, and growth. The gold fitted upon the carved work is the I AM awareness, the divine light that beautifies form. When you gaze upon these doors, you are practicing a psychological act: you are choosing what to admit into your inner sanctuary. To revise means to let the light pass through; to feel it real means to dwell in the state where spiritual life is present here and now. The temple is inside you; reality is consciousness and imagination; therefore, gild your inner images and step through into presence, peace, and power.
