Beloved Within, Inner Royalty

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the Song's splendor as a map of your own inner state. Each attribute describes a facet of consciousness when it rests in its true I AM: whiteness and ruddy vitality denote clear, living awareness; gold head and raven hair speak of priceless insight crowned by disciplined vision; eyes like doves by rivers of waters washed with milk signify perception purified and rightly ordered. Cheeks like spices and lips like lilies whisper of a fragrance of grace that colors every word and thought. Hands of gold rings set with beryl and belly bright ivory overlaid with sapphires reveal inner activity and center crowned with wealth of divine substance. Legs of marble on golden sockets denote steadfast foundation; the countenance like Lebanon's cedars proclaims enduring majesty. The beloved is thus your own inner presence—the I AM you awaken to, not a person outside. When you dwell in this interior regal state, the world outside adjusts to reflect the radiance and favor of your inner royalty.
