Inner Inheritance: A Fixed Lineage

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the inner eye, the decree of Numbers 36:9 is not about geography but about your current state of being. The 'inheritance' is the treasure you carry in consciousness—the quality, talent, and fulfillment that belong to you by your inner covenant. The prohibition on removal from tribe becomes a rule for the mind: do not trade your established line of awareness for someone else's image, fear, or lack. The tribes are the aspects of self you identify with; to stay with your own is to honor the truth that your life is the manifestation of your present I AM. When you insist that your portion remains with you, you awaken the power of steady imagination rather than restless imitation. The outer law thus mirrors an inner discipline: fidelity to your own state secures the fruits of your creation. Remember that obedience here is not servitude but attention—continuous attention to the inner covenant that your life is already preserved and fully yours when you dwell in your own line.
