Inner Alarms and Gathered Presence

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider the alarm as a signal of your inner state. The journey to the south side is the shift of consciousness you undertake when you move from one inner center to another. The second alarm is not a noise but a revision in your feeling that you are now moving in harmony with the I AM. When the congregation is gathered, the instruction to blow the alarm ceases because the inner condition of unity already holds. In this passage, the loud external signals mirror your inner calls, and obedience is simply remaining faithful to your inner state. The true worship is not a ritual but a sustained awareness of God as your I AM, a continuous sense that you and God are one. To practice, intentionally choose a state you desire, then repeat a revision phrase while imagining the scene you seek, and feel it as real to you now. Let the second alarm indicate the revision of your state, and let the gathered presence fill your field of awareness.
