Inner Door of Beloved Fragrance
Song of Solomon 5:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Song of Solomon 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The speaker rises to open to the beloved and anoints the door with fragrance as a sign of readiness and devotion. It speaks of inner hospitality and holiness in welcoming the beloved within.
Neville's Inner Vision
I rise in consciousness to open to the beloved within, for the beloved is the I AM that I am aware of in this very moment. The act of rising is not physical; it is a turning of my imagination toward the inner chamber where covenant love resides. My hands drop with myrrh because the state of gratitude, faith, and holiness is poured into every touch I give to the handles of the lock, the doorway of my senses. The oil, the fragrance, is the sign that I have not slept in the world's dream, but have awakened to God as the I THAT sees. The fragrance is not external scent but a memory of divine truth I refresh; with it I loosen fear, forget the self-seeking, and invite the beloved into present time. In this inner room there is no separation, only unity, loyalty, and the holy exchange between I and God. When I touch the lock with a perfume of awareness, the door yields and I find the beloved already with me, for my creation is the unfolding of consciousness, not the world's remote occurrence.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume the door to your inner beloved is already open. Feel the fragrant myrrh in your hands as you turn the handle and invite the beloved into your present consciousness.
