Inner Temple: Eternal Worship

Neville's Inner Vision

Behold, the text speaks of a house built to the name of the LORD my God; this is the inner house you are invited to erect within your own consciousness. The 'name' is not a label on bricks but the I AM—the awake presence you are. The continual incense, the bread, the burnt offerings, the sabbaths, the new moons, the solemn feasts are not external rites to perform; they are steady movements of attention, repeated until your whole being rests in awareness. When you accept this as a permanent ordinance for your inner Israel, you commit to a rhythm: morning and evening you reset your mood to reverence, you breathe in praise as if it were the very air of your being, you partake of the bread of truth and offer the old thoughts that no longer serve. This practice dissolves the boundary between worship and life, for loyalty to the I AM becomes the atmosphere you inhabit. The temple you raise within is your covenant; it lasts because it is a state of consciousness you continuously choose.
