Door To Knowing

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the inner theater of consciousness, 'I know you not' speaks not of a judgment on another power, but of the state you wear as your own. The virgins symbolize rival inner dispositions: one carries the oil of constant awareness; the other proceeds on memory and outward claim. When the Master reveals himself to fullness—the I AM present as you—your old identity is left behind and the door of the inner room seems to shut to the former you. Neville would say: the Lord is never distant; recognition occurs when you cease defining yourself by lack and by appearances and instead assume the reality of your God-given presence. The moment you know yourself as I AM, you are known by the one you truly are. The "knowing" is not a future grade but a present state you choose and sustain. The door is never closed to the living awareness that you embody; you simply wake into it by dwelling in the assumption that you are the Lord of your life now.
