Inner Temple Walls

Neville's Inner Vision

Ezekiel 41:9 is not a building plan but a map of the soul's architecture. The outer wall, five cubits thick, shields the side chamber without from the inner place reserved for holiness. In Neville's language, the wall becomes a state of consciousness: thickness indicates how much you separate your awareness from the world in order to hold sacred worship. The inner side chambers represent deeper levels of awareness accessible when the ego subsides and the I AM presides. When you imagine the temple, you are describing a rhythm of attention rather than a structure: decide how much of life to give to outer appearances and how much to reserve for the Presence that cannot be seen but is felt. The Presence of God is the inward reality that attests, I AM. The five cubits become a practical symbol: a boundary within the mind that makes room for reverent stillness, praise, and communion. Dwell in that inner sanctuary, and let life’s events move within your frame, guided by the I AM.
