Inner Fragrance and Provision

Neville's Inner Vision

To the inner listener, Song of Solomon 5:13-14 reveals a state of consciousness rather than a person. The cheeks as a bed of spices signify a refined sensory life—perception that is richly awake, receptive, and sweetly present. The lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh, declare speech that blesses, words that arise from a heart at peace and trust. Hands as gold rings set with the beryl embody productive action—creativity, value, and the capacity to fashion provision from imagination’s wealth. The image of ivory overlaid with sapphires speaks of a pure, radiant center—a belly of strength and clarity, luminous with inner wisdom. When you accept these images as your present state, you align with the I AM that you are, and your world becomes a field where fragrance, grace, and abundance are manifest in form. Events and circumstances stop being random arrivals and become the outer echo of the inner dispositions you cultivate by thought, feeling, and reverent attention. Practice dwelling as this man, and notice how the outer life follows.
