Inner Glory Against Flesh Pride

Neville's Inner Vision

In this passage you are shown a choice between glorying in the external, sensory shapes of life and affirming an inner state of awareness. The mind that flocks to fleshly glory is simply identifying with a fleeting image, a social costume that passes with time. I am the I AM within, the constant witnessing presence that does not rise or fall with applause or clever talk. When you hear the impulse to boast in the flesh, notice it as a movement of the self-image, not of your true nature. The call here is to revise that premise: you are not defined by outward status or by the mind’s label of “wise.” Feel the shift as you claim inner glory—the unchanging awareness that perceives all forms. If you sense a compulsion to suffer fools gladly, see it as a cry of self-importance; replace it with the certainty that the real wisdom is the quiet, steadfast presence you already are. In this inward correction, the world’s judgments loosen and your true worth becomes your constant reality.
