Inner Temple Treasures Restored

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the I AM, the ‘king of the Chaldees’ is only a thought-form ruling a moment of consciousness, not a power in truth. The house of God is the inner sanctuary—the seat of awareness, imagination, faith, and will. The vessels and treasures are my faculties and cherished beliefs. When that outer king comes, it slays the young and the old in me—energy and wisdom—without mercy and carries the treasures away to Babylon, the forgotten land of fear and neglect. But exile is not final loss; it is the soul's invitation to revise and reclaim. I am the I AM, and as I refuse to accept that a foreign ruler can own my inner kingdom, I can retrieve every vessel through the act of imagining them restored. I revise the scene from destruction to fulfillment, from abandonment to possession, by dwelling in the end-state now. The return from Babylon occurs the moment I awaken to consciousness as the source of all form; within me the temple stands whole, and its riches are mine to command again.
