Leading Spirit Over Jordan

Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner land—the land Moses gave you on this side Jordan—is the state of consciousness you already possess. The wives, little ones, and cattle symbolize those everyday loves, duties, and attachments that would keep you fixed in safety if you let them, but they are simply signals of your current climate of awareness. The command to pass before your brethren armed is the imaginal faculty stepping forward, ready to lead with resolve. The mighty men of valour are the disciplined faculties—faith, courage, patience—wielded by the I AM. To 'help them' is to render their state of consciousness tangible in your life by not retreating in fear but moving boldly in imagination. When you embrace this passage as a plan for your inner army, you discover that the outward army follows a single inward conviction: you are the author of your experiences, and the next scene is born of your present assumption. So stand firm in the I AM and let your imagined action declare your waking reality.
