Inner Embrace of the I AM
Song of Solomon 2:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Song of Solomon 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse portrays a moment of intimate embrace—the beloved held with comfort and security by a loving touch. It signals rest, presence, and the sense that divine love is near.
Neville's Inner Vision
The verse is not about a distant beloved but about your awakening to the truth of your own state of consciousness. When you read 'His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me,' imagine that the 'lover' is the I AM—the very awareness that you are. The left hand under the head represents surrender into a secure resting thought—that you may release fear and lean into the stillness of now. The right hand embracing you is the active fullness of God’s love entering your felt world; it is the idea and feeling that you cannot be separate from perfect presence. In Neville's terms, this is a demonstration of imagination shaping reality: you must assume the feeling of being held, and dwell in that state until it becomes your ordinary awareness. Do not seek outside; your present self is the doorway through which the divine touches you.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine the left hand supporting your head and the right arm wrapping you in warmth. Then declare softly, 'I am held by the I AM,' letting that assurance sink into your body.
