Two Leaves, One Temple Door

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner economy, the temple is your life, and the doors are states of consciousness. Each door bears two turning leaves, two leaves for the one door and two for the other—the two leaves are the two turning movements of attention and belief. When you lack holiness or presence, the doors may seem closed; when you assume and revise, the leaves turn and the space becomes sacred. God, the I AM within, does not reside in distance but in the awareness that opens with a decision. To worship truly, you align your inner posture until your 'temple' is clearly designated as the dwelling place of Presence. The leaves’ turning is your inner motion: you choose to approach, you choose to open, you choose to dwell in the now where you and God are one. By assuming the state that the doors are always ready to turn for you, you invite the Presence to cross the threshold of your awareness.
