Inner Genealogies of Being

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the chapter, the names do not merely prove bloodlines; they are the map of your inner states. Reuben, Simeon, Levi and their tribes stand for the different aspects of self you carry in consciousness. To Moses and Aaron is given the task to lead, just as you are asked to become the ruler of your own inner bondage and to deliver your people from limitation. The years of life that you see beside each name are not mere numbers; they are the cycles of attention you have lived in the past. Amram, Jochebed, Elisheba—these unions announce the creative marriages of higher and lower natures within you, bringing forth new potent states of being. When you read 'Bring out the children of Israel from Egypt according to their armies', hear it as 'I bring forth my freed self from bondage according to my inner alignments' — the mind's army marching in orderly order. The genealogies simply remind you that your inner kingdom has a lineage, a line of leadership ready to awaken when you assume the sovereign identity.
