Inner Lineage of Spirit

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, Canaan stands as the state of awareness you are aware of as the I AM. Sidon, his firstborn, is the initial impulse of desire that asks to be acknowledged. The Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgasite, and the rest are the many attitudes that accompany that impulse—habits of thought, fears, dreams, and loyalties that crowd the inner city. When you dwell in that looking, these inner tribes multiply and their families spread abroad into the outward conditions of your life: people you meet, places you inhabit, and opportunities that appear. Yet the movement does not begin in outward change but in consciousness. If you imply a new state of being by imagination and feel it as real in the I AM, those dispositions align with your chosen version of yourself, and the old landscape recedes as new cities arise within. Remember, imagination creates reality; you are the architect of your inner world, and your outer world is its faithful echo.
