Inner Transport and Return

Neville's Inner Vision

Before awareness, I was not yet conscious of the full movement of God within; yet the soul, like chariots, carries me as I become aware. The line Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib declares that the moment of true creation occurs when I identify with the I AM and let imagination drive the inner procession. The Shulamite represents the state of conscious, radiant love and presence, the inner Bride whose gaze commands the field of experience. To 'return' is to withdraw attention from outer images and resume dwelling in that inner court, where the two armies—the opposing thoughts and energies—are seen as the vivid display of life moving toward harmony. When I assume the end, I do not seek to force results but to feel, in imagination, the very presence that would have produced them. In this way, the inner transport is not an escape but the rehearsal of reality in consciousness; the armies are reconciled by the unconditional I AM, and the world reflects that unified state.
