Golden Nails, Inner Temple

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the temple in the verse as the landscape of your own consciousness. The nails, though small, bear the weight of gold because value is assigned by the mind that uses them. The upper chambers being overlaid with gold signifies inner spaces you adorn with awareness, not by external wealth but by steadfast belief and feeling. In Neville’s terms, wealth is a state of consciousness; to overlay the mind with gold is to live as if abundance is your natural condition. Your daily acts—your work, care, and worship—are the nails and joints that hold this gilded temple together. When you consciously choose and feel that you are the source of provision, you are rehearsing the reality that your inner world can manifest outward order and beauty. The verse invites a practical shift: elevate your thoughts, dress your inner life in gold, and observe how your surroundings reflect this refined consciousness, revealing a true worship aligned with creation’s abundance.
