Inner Bishop, Unified Self

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's mode, the bishop is a state of consciousness—the steady, blameless I AM that governs all lived experience. To be 'the husband of one wife' is to choose unity within the self, to devote attention to a single, divine idea rather than fragmenting attention upon many images. 'Vigilant' is the inner vigilance of awareness—the continuous watching of thoughts and feelings by the conscious I AM. 'Sober' denotes a temperate, disciplined mind that does not yield to drama or distraction; 'of good behaviour' is the outward expression of a harmonious inner state. 'Given to hospitality' becomes the willingness of your consciousness to welcome new impressions, insights, and opportunities from the Divine, and to offer the fruit of your inner life to others by how you live. And 'apt to teach' is the natural impulse to share truth born from your inner realization of the I AM. Your life becomes a temple where these inner dispositions are cultivated, shaping every perception as you imagine from the crown of I AM.
