Entering The Unknown Land Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the Jeremiahs' words, exile is not geography but a transient state of consciousness. The enemies are the hostile thoughts and old habits you have believed were outside you. The land you know not is the inner realm that awakens when you refuse to let the familiar mind rule you. The fire kindled in anger is the purifying energy that invites you to feel the truth of who you are, beyond blame and punishment. In Neville's tone, I am that I am, awareness, is the sole reality. The moment you discover that your sense of separation has never left you, you may walk through the imagined gate with the assurance that the land you seek already exists within. The exile ends when you keep covenant loyalty to the I AM, not to appearances. Your return is a change in your inner state, and your outer world must follow as a texture of that state. Remember: imagination creates reality; dwell in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, and you pass through the unknown with ease.
