Inner Union of One Flesh

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the beginning of the creation is not a distant epoch but the present moment of awareness. The man and the woman symbolize two faculties within your own consciousness—masculine and feminine energies—now united by your I AM. When the text says they shall be one flesh, it is declaring an inner bond that cannot be broken by changing conditions; it is a decree of harmony within. The leaving of father and mother is the release of old identifications, so that a new allegiance to the living state may stand. Remember: what God has joined is an inner covenant, not a merely external contract; the unity exists because God, your I AM, dwells within and sustains it. Your task is to stand guard over that inner union by presuming its reality, refusing every thought of division, and revising lack into a felt wholeness that cannot be broken. When you embody this integration in imagination, your outer world follows the one flesh you have already created within.
