Inner Night Walk to Mahanaim

Neville's Inner Vision

To the seeker, this passage is not a map of ancient battles but a map of consciousness. Abner and his men walking through the night represent the mind's march through the plain of possibilities, crossing Jordan into Mahanaim—the territory of your settled awareness where two currents meet and is healed by awareness. The death toll among Benjamin and Abner's men is the price paid by old habits that must fall away when you anchor your I AM in the present moment. Asahel's burial signals the quieting of a restless impulse that would rush ahead without purpose. Joab's all-night return to Hebron at daybreak is your inner self emerging into a dawn state, carrying your finished work to the town of your true identity. What remains is the realization that the inner battle is not out there but within you, and when you acknowledge that your own perception closes the gap between conflict and harmony, you awaken to the kingdom in consciousness.
