Inner Lineage of Anah

Neville's Inner Vision

Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, and Aholibamah are not distant men of a dusty list; they are images of processes within your own consciousness. The 'children' are states of awareness that emerge as you attend to a given impression. The note that Anah 'found the mules in the wilderness' is the symbol of imagination discovering means in the barren mind—resources that your I AM uncovers when it refuses to be overwhelmed by lack. When you acknowledge Anah as the founder of a line within you, you invite a lineage of dignity: each 'child' arises from the inner marriage of endurance and intuition. Dishon and Aholibamah stand for two inner dispositions: one that may seem coarse or discordant (Dishon) and another that embodies unity and kinship (Aholibamah, the daughter of Anah) in your mental household. The scripture thus celebrates a human dignity, an Imago Dei present in your inner family, whenever consciousness recognizes itself as the source and sustainer of its own line.
