Inner Treasure of Ezekiel 27:12

Neville's Inner Vision

In Ezekiel 27:12 the name Tarshish stands not as a city on a map but as a state of mind—the merchant of riches who believes abundance resides in silver, iron, tin, and lead and in the exchange of goods. The multitude of all kind of riches is the mind’s inventory, a belief-system that external trade can guarantee security. Yet in the Neville manner, wealth is not a ledger of coins but a condition of awareness you already possess here and now. When you regard the self as the I AM that breathes and witnesses, the 'merchants' of your life—opinions, possessions, appearances—become signals that your inner economy is alive. The sense of lack arises when you mistake the outward market for the source of life. The remedy is to revise that memory by assuming the feeling of wealth as your intrinsic nature, aligning your thoughts with the truth that you are the one who creates these currents by your state of consciousness. Let the fair of your daily scenes become a festival of abundance you offer to yourself, not a test of your worth.
