Inner Journeys Through Trials

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville vantage, these outward perils are not separate enemies but signals of inner resistance. The I AM within you is the true captain; the rods, the stones, the wrecks describe the movements of your own consciousness under pressure from old beliefs. When you feel tossed by waters, or surrounded by robbers and false appearances, you are simply witnessing thoughts that have not yet consented to your divine nature. The verse is not a walk through geography; it is a map of consciousness under the hammer of doubt. If you identify with fear, you multiply storms; if you identify with the I AM, you notice the storms recede as your attention rests in the eternal you. The body of the universe responds to the posture of your inner state. So, in practice, return now to the feeling of being kept by infinite intelligence; imagine the scene revised so that you are unhurt, unshaken, guided by wisdom that knows you as whole. Your present fear dissolves when you acknowledge your oneness with the I AM.
