Desert Dwelling Within You

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah's picture is of a land emptied by belief, a desert state mirrored in consciousness. The wild beasts and owls are the scattered energies of a mind that has forgotten its I AM, the inner governor that once ruled its experience. When you feel the place is uninhabited forever, you are being shown a state of mind that has ceased to reign. The verse is not merely a warning but a map: you can revise by returning to your I AM and making imagination your dwelling. Just as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah in the inner vision, so too can you overthrow a belief that you are forever exiled from your own peace. Return occurs when you invite the I AM to be the center of perception, not the fading memory of lack. The no-man-shall-dwell line becomes a clearing seed: once the mind acknowledges a truer kingdom, the former inhabitants depart, and you inhabit again by the power of consciousness.
