Inner Zion Awakening

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this scriptural scene, the spoiled adornment and the cry of travail are not external facts but inner states of consciousness you are entertaining. The crimson, the gold, the painted face are but outfits of a worn sense of self; the lovers are the empty satisfactions of the outer world that cannot sustain the I AM you are. When you hear a voice like a woman in travail—the birth cry of Zion—know it is your inner self renouncing the old self and preparing for a higher awareness. The daughter of Zion is your true identity—the I AM that endures above circumstance—spreading her hands in a gesture of release. The warning is invitation to revise the scene by using imagination as the operative power of life: perceive the present moment as the womb where a new state of consciousness is formed. If you dare to imagine from that awareness, the inner city no longer clings to crimson or ornament; it awakens to the glow of a Zion that arises from within, effortlessly, as your next natural expression.
