Inner Land, Outer Echoes

Neville's Inner Vision

Your land desolates because you have forgotten the I AM within. The verse is a reminder that the outer is the echo of the inner. Desolation is not punishment but a signal to revise the inner act. When you awaken to the truth that you are the dreamer of your world, the land begins to rearrange itself. The 'fruit of their doings' becomes the fruit of your renewed inner acts: faith, patience, love, and the creative imagination. See the land as a mirror; if it seems barren, revise the memory of your state and assume you now dwell in a soil rich with possibility, so that every impulse of action ripens into abundance. The shift is not in the weather but in your inner kingly state. Thus you return from exile by returning to the one in you who names; you awaken, not by changing the laws of nature, but by changing your consciousness of them.
