Beloved's Desire Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this verse, the I AM declares itself as the beloved's own. 'The beloved's desire toward me' is not a longing outside your skin, but the inward recognition of your covenantal state—awareness choosing to be loved. To say 'I am my beloved's' is to consent to a perpetual intimacy of presence, a covenant kept in consciousness. The invitation 'let us go forth into the field' becomes a practical instruction: once you assume this belonging, the field of life becomes a field of opportunities you can walk as an extension of that consciousness. The villages you lodge in? They are the everyday scenes of your day-to-day life—work, friends, creation—where the sense of unity is acted out. In Neville's terms, imagination creates reality: dwell in the feeling that the beloved desires you and persist there, acting from that assured state as if the field and villages are already yours. The inner covenant precedes every outward movement.
