Longing for the Inner Tabernacle

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 84:1-2 invites us not to search a distant temple, but to attend to the temple you are. The word 'amiable' reveals the beauty and ease of the inner tabernacles where God dwells as your I AM. When the psalmist says my soul longeth for the courts of the LORD, this is your soul signaling a return to the living consciousness that animates every thought, feeling, and sensation. The heart and flesh crying out is the weariness of separation dropping away as you acknowledge that the living God is the very act of awareness within you. In Neville's psychology, desire is not a hunger to be filled by an external god, but the push of awareness toward self-recognition. The tabernacles are states of consciousness you can inhabit by assuming the presence now: imagine the courts as a luminous inner room where attention rests and love governs. As you persist in that assumption, your outer world rearranges to match the inner recognition: you awaken to the living God within as your continuous state of being.
