Inner Temple Perimeter Vision

Neville's Inner Vision

Read as a psychological enactment, Ezekiel's measuring reeds are the steady attention by which you set the boundaries of your inner sanctuary. The four sides—east, north, south, west—are not walls of stone but four quarters of your consciousness where awareness flows. The reed around them is your I AM, the constant awareness that never loses its focus. By measuring five hundred reeds on each side, you demonstrate a stable, unchanging stance: holiness is not a place you visit but a state you inhabit. When you align each direction with a feeling of reverence, you separate the sacred from the profane within your mental landscape. The act of boundary-making is not to fence out people but to fence in divine presence; it creates a perimeter where thoughts, fears, and urges can be acknowledged but not permitted to define your reality. Thus presence of God fills your awareness when you honor the interior geometry: discipline, discernment, and unconditional watchfulness become your spiritual domain.
