Inner Rulers and Weeping

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that the 'rulers' are not others but your own inner authorities—your plans, beliefs, and decisions—looking and fleeing when confronted by the archers of doubt. They are bound together by the common impression that you are defined by conditions outside yourself. The command to 'look away from me' is the moment you withdraw identification from the scene of lack, and the weeping is the release of an old image that no longer serves you. The 'daughter of my people' is the living vitality of your collective life—the inner energy of your spiritual community—threatened by the illusion of separation. In truth, the I AM at the center of your being never flees; it merely imagines scenes to be healed by your revision. By assuming a state of wholeness, by feeling it real in the heart and feeling the unity of all inner parts, you bind the dispersed rulers back into one sovereign consciousness. The archers dissolve when you remember the one I AM who governs all.
