Inner Genealogy Awakening

Neville's Inner Vision

When Nehemiah says, my God put into mine heart, he names the fundamental act of imagination. The I AM within awakens a desire to gather the nobles, rulers, and people not as external officials, but as the inner governors and tribes of your own mind. The register he finds is the memory of states of consciousness you have worn on the journey from captivity to renewal—the returns you have already made to Jerusalem within. Exile here is the belief you are separate from your source; return is the recognition that you are always paired with the divine Presence. The province is the field of attention; the city, Jerusalem, is awakened awareness. When you heed that inner summons to recount your inner lineage, you align yourself with a covenant of loyalty to your true nature. The events in the story mirror your daily experience: the past carried away by Babylon becomes the old stories you no longer inhabit, and the current moment becomes the first day of your rebuilt life. You are not gathering strangers; you are summoning your own inner kin to reign in your mind.
