Inner Tyre Burden Revelation

Neville's Inner Vision

From Neville's view, Tyre is not a distant city but a stubborn stance of the mind—pride, external wealth, and a life measured by outer ships. The burden is the weight of a ruling belief that life is sustained by what can be seen and sailed; the ships of Tarshish are the wandering thoughts that carry this conviction wherever you go. When the verse says it is laid waste, it is an inner revelation: a condition of consciousness that no longer supports itself by former reasons or structures. The ruin of Tyre becomes a mirror showing that your sense of security rests on imaginal possessions and status. The line 'from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them' speaks to the far-off region of imagination where truth enters awareness; revelation comes when the mind stops rationalizing and becomes still enough to notice the assumption behind every condition. The moment you treat this as a science of consciousness, you begin to revise—knowing that the inner state is the cause and the outer world the effect.
