Inner Lovers Deceived By Self

Neville's Inner Vision

In this lament, the outward trust is shown for what it is: a reliance on lovers and leaders who are themselves a movement of the mind seeking relief. When you call for them as your sustenance, you are calling a state of consciousness that must inevitably fail you, for they are not the I AM that sustains you. The city dies because you have handed your life over to images and appetites rather than to the inner ruler, the I AM. The remedy is to awaken to your own inner sovereignty, to refuse the habit of seeking life from external figures and to treat your awareness as the true address of your hunger. Sit with the feeling that you are already the presence that provides, sees, and satisfies. In imagining this, you revise the script: the priests and elders are not external authorities but habits of thinking that you now re-interpret as supportive currents of consciousness coming from within. Allow the feeling of fullness to arise from the I AM, and the city of your mind is renewed.
