Time and Covenant Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Your mind is the stage of Psalm 102: the Self, not the body, that speaks: take me not away is the plea of a consciousness aware of its own duration. The years are the eternal I AM that animates every moment. The foundation of the earth and the heavens are inner conditions you fix as the ground of experience—the beliefs you choose to wear. They shall perish in form, but the Self that perceives remains unchanged. The declaration thou art the same is your awakening that the I AM within you does not bow to circumstance; thy years shall have no end declares the continuity of your inner life—your fidelity, your love, your power to imagine. When you rest in that unchanging awareness, the changing garments of life become pliant costumes rather than fate, worn as long as they serve your present vision. The line about the children of thy servants continuing becomes your law: the effects of your steadfast inner state echo into the next moment, establishing a continuity that cannot be broken by time.
