Temple Cloud of I AM

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider the temple not as bricks but as your own state of consciousness. The priests are your old ministers—habits, fears, ego—whose work collapses when the inner sanctuary is flooded with awareness. The cloud is the influx of I AM consciousness, the very presence of God, sweeping through the mind until no corner remains untouched by light. When the cloud fills the house, the glory of the LORD is not distant; it is your true nature made apparent as living awareness. This is not a future waiting, but a present act of consciousness: you imagine and feel as though the temple is already filled. The separation between God and man dissolves; you become aware of the divine presence within as your own I AM. From that inner state, outward life aligns with it; you no longer seek to perform in the old fashion, for you are the house that is saturated with glory. Trust this inward filling and tend it with attention, until doubt yields to the luminous reality of who you are.
