Name the Day Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Here, the 'day' is not a calendar but a state of consciousness. Babylon's siege is the dominant thought pressing on the inner Jerusalem—the sense of wholeness you claim as your true city. When Ezekiel is told to write the name of the day, he is asked to fix attention on the exact moment you are living in: the self you identify with and the belief that it must be overcome. In Neville's terms, Jerusalem represents your I AM—awareness that remains untouched by circumstance. The decree to 'set against' is the tumble of fear and judgment that appears in attention; yet it is not a verdict but a signal to revise your inner state. By choosing to 'name' the day, you acknowledge that you are the narrator and the author of the drama. The moment is propitious for a shift: assume the consciousness of your desired state as if it were already present, feel it real, and dwell in the sense I AM that dissolves the siege. The external facts then align with your inner truth as a return of Jerusalem to the city within.
