Quiet Doors of Endurance

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the scripture speaks in symbols, but those symbols are states of your consciousness. The doors shutting and the low grinding are the quieting of outward noise as you withdraw from the world's drama. The rising at the voice of the bird and the dimming music are your inner signals, a shift of attention to the still I AM that witnesses all. Fear of what is high and the path you tread are not prophecies but inner movements; beliefs that threaten, yet they pass when you turn inward. The almond tree flourishing and the grasshopper's burden symbolize conditions in you—vitality and weariness—seen not as facts but as movable images under imagination's law. You are not marching toward death but returning to the eternal you, the I AM, where time and desire are rearranged by consciousness. When you accept that imagination creates reality, you revise these signs by insisting your future exists now in this I AM and feeling it real with calm certainty.
