Drink From Your Inner Waters

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the cistern as the state you inhabit in awareness. To drink from your own cistern is to feed upon the quality you have consciously chosen for your life: your own interior covenant with the I AM. The 'running waters' that come from your own well are the dynamic feelings, imaginings, and vibrations you deliberately sustain within. When you are puzzled by others' opinions, remember that you cannot pour vitality from another's source into your being without diminishing your own measure. Your life grows from the imaginative act of feeling as if your desired state is already present; the waters you drink are the energy of your own assumption. Thus, the verse invites purification: guard your inner life, drink only what rises from your own consciousness, and let your discernment distinguish between genuine nourishment and mere imitation. The moment you decide and dwell in the feeling of already having what you seek, your inner well begins to overflow into form.
