Inner Land, Inner Exile

Neville's Inner Vision

Observe that the verse speaks not of geography but of states of consciousness. Esau's Seir is the fixed, outward belief you hold—an unyielding identity landmark you imagine as permanent. Jacob and his children going down into Egypt marks a deeper inner movement, a shift toward new possibilities, even if it feels exile or drift. The divine “I gave” is a reminder that every division and every placement of land is a mental act of consciousness, not a historical decree you must obey. If you feel displaced or bound by circumstance, know you are simply unwinding an old mapping and inviting a revision. You, the I AM, possess the ability to reallocate those inner lands by the power of your assumption. Decide which inner state you now choose to inhabit—peace, abundance, belonging—and treat that choice as yours by feeling it real. In practice, hold the conviction that your present experience can be rewritten from within, and allow the inner map to align with the land you intend to possess. Through steady imagination, exile becomes movement toward a unified, abundant life.
