Inner Ark and Veil Practice

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's language, the ark is your inner state—the I AM who testifies to the truth of your divine nature. The ark of the testimony is not a chest of wood but a memory of what you know about yourself as God within. To place it there is to agree with the truth you have discovered, to establish a sanctuary in consciousness where the divine word dwells and cannot be drenched by passing appearances. The veil is your disciplined attention, the mental habit of turning away from the glitter of sense and maintenance of separation between the visible world and your inner sanctuary. When you veil the ark, you are not hiding yourself from life; you are protecting the living evidence of your oneness with God so that outward conditions do not erase it. The moment you assume the state of the ark, you are obeying covenant loyalty: you refuse to doubt your own divinity. Practice: hold the thought 'I AM' as the ark within me, and rest there in quiet awareness until appearances recombine to match that truth.
