Weeping in the Inner Kingdom

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the God-conscious mind, the kingdom of God is not a distant realm but the awareness you cultivate. When you hear of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and the prophets seated in the kingdom while you feel 'outside,' recognize you are not rejected by God but have merely believed yourself outside a state you can inhabit. The weeping and gnashing are the inner clamor of clinging to a separate sense of self—an old story you must revise. If you affirm that these patriarchs and prophets are within you as states of consciousness, you shift your center from lack to awareness and enter the inner temple. The kingdom becomes your indemnity of being, not an external privilege. The external vision of others inside serves as a mirror of your present inner alignment; it reveals your current self-image, not a future judgment. By deliberately assuming the feeling that you are already within the kingdom, you dissolve fear, drop judgment, and erase the sense of being thrust out.
