The Mind's Open Welcome

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of hospitality not as a social duty but as the function of a state of consciousness. You are the I AM that hosts every thought, every impulse, every visitor that enters your awareness. When you give with grudging in your heart, you seal the door against the flow of life and you experience smallness, limitation, and separation. But when you revise that inner posture, you invite the universal Spirit to circulate through you. Grudging is resistance to the natural move of life; hospitality is the acceptance of every arrival as a messenger of your own well-being. As you align with the I AM, you discover that giving and receiving are two departments of the same kingdom, two inner movements of the one Presence. In the inner theatre, you open the door, you welcome the guest of need, bit of criticism, or gratitude, and you feel warmth rise because you are recognizing that all beings are manifestations of your consciousness. The verse asks you to cultivate a constant welcoming posture, so the world around you rearranges itself to reflect that generous, unresisted living. You are not performing for God; you are awakening to your own hospitable nature.
