The Hidden Saul Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Saul's act is not merely a political maneuver but an inner drama born of fear that his authority will fail. He disguises his true self and seeks a familiar spirit to revive a past certainty, Samuel, instead of letting the I AM within guide the present. In Neville's terms, the woman, the night, and the ritual symbolize hidden mental disposals—egoic patterns that try to conjure guidance from memory rather than awaken living awareness. The demand to bring Samuel up names a habit of mind that prefers a dead idol to the living present. This is the danger of idolatry: worshiping external forms and a remembered power over the inner consciousness that imagines reality. When such impulses rise in you, they point to a turn from the mask toward the I AM, inviting you to revise the scene from lack to fullness and to feel the guidance as already given within.
