Song of Solomon: Passage and Devotional

Neville Goddard taught that the Bible, including the Song of Solomon, is a symbolic story of the imagination and the inner life of consciousness. The “one I love” represents the awakened imagination — the creative power within us that, once recognised, we hold and never let go. This devotional invites you to see these verses not only as a love story between two people, but as a profound dialogue between your conscious self and your own creative imagination. May these words inspire you to embrace the power of your imagination, hold fast to your inner vision, and live from the certainty of the love you have found within.
