Inner Exile to Return

Neville's Inner Vision

In your inner sight, Ezra represents the I AM, the sovereign will that would not tolerate captivity of the mind. The 'children of the captivity' are not others but your thought-forms and habits that have kept you in exile from your true temple. The act of separation—'by the house of their fathers, and all of them by their names'—is a clarifying act, gathering the disparate parts of yourself into a single, named identity. When you sit down on the first day of a chosen month to examine the matter, you affirm that consciousness can look upon itself without denial, and what you observe you revise by assumption. The moment you treat a change as already accomplished, you reframe the scene from struggle to completion. The tenth month becomes a symbolic new birth, a dedicated time to align your present awareness with the state you desire. Let the wise part of you inspect, let the restless part be seen and let it yield, until the inner governor speaks in the language of certainty—you have returned home to yourself.
