Creation Claps Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Observe that the floods and hills are not external phenomena but your inner climate: floods are the cleansing, surging emotions; hills are steadfast convictions and reverence. When you assume the feeling of a world clapping its hands and mountains singing for joy, you are rehearsing the truth that I AM, your awareness, is the creator of events. The verse asks nothing of nature apart from your willingness to inhabit a state of perfect rhythm with life. In this state, every movement of imagination becomes a note in a chorus of order; the vigorous currents and the enduring ridges are your thoughts and feelings aligned with the God within. Therefore, worship is not a ritual outside you but a practice of imagining a reality that already exists in your consciousness. When you dwell in that image, the outer world appears joyous and ordered, because you have become the condition by which it manifests.
