Inner Fragrance of Divine Presence

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this text, the 'ointment' is the aroma of a state of consciousness you wear. 'Thy name is as ointment poured forth' means the I AM you awaken to is not a distant deity but a living fragrance you pour out as you hold and imagine a divine identity. When the verse says 'the virgins love thee,' it signals that when you align with this inner God-state, all the fragmented parts of yourself are drawn to your awareness because you are in harmony with the divine presence. 'Draw me, we will run after thee' becomes a command to let your attention be pulled into that inward invitation, and 'the king hath brought me into his chambers' represents a deliberate shift into the chamber of your own higher consciousness where revelation and intimacy occur. 'We will be glad and rejoice in thee' is joy as the natural state, not an achievement. 'We will remember thy love more than wine' means the steady remembrance of the I AM outshines worldly pleasures, and 'the upright love thee' indicates that genuine alignment invites steadfast admiration. Practice: assume you are already in the inner chambers, feel the fragrance of God in your being, and let that feeling revise every other perception.
