Inner Brotherhood of Love

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Neville's framework, the words reveal a state of consciousness rather than a historical event. Jonathan stands as a vivid image of the inner companion—the I AM formed as loyal love within your own mind. The distress is not longing for a person as a separate being, but the recognition that you are already one with that ideal state of unity, a state you can choose again and again. The “pleasant hast thou been unto me” is the felt quality of alignment in awareness when you know you are seen and cherished by your own consciousness. The declaration that this love passes the love of women is the realization that spiritual affection—the harmony of the Whole—outshines any surface feeling. When you sit in meditation and imagine your inner Jonathan, you are affirming your unity with God and with all life. You are tuning the vibrational pulse of wholeness; from that vibrational shift, your relationships reflect a healed, cooperative commonwealth of souls.
