Inner Interpretation Of Scripture

Neville's Inner Vision

Knowing this, that no prophecy of the scripture is of private interpretation, is not a restriction but a sign of the inner order. In the temple of your own consciousness, the I AM is the interpreter, and every verse asks you to listen for a truth that flows through the whole field of life, not your isolated opinion. Prophecy then becomes the recognition of a universal pattern already present in your state of being. If you feel tempted to own the meaning as a private invention, remember that interpretation arises where your mind agrees with the larger law that sustains all scripture. The practice is to align your inner state with the collective meaning; to revise your assumption until your feeling and the verse resonate as one. When you imagine yourself living the truth of the verse, you are not forcing it into existence but awakening to it. Your inner knowing, the I AM, reads the scripture through the same light that reads your experience, and interpretation flows from unity, not isolation.
