Promised Power, Inner Nature

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, the promises are not external rewards but inner states awaiting realization. They awaken the divine nature by inviting you to imagine and feel them as real now. When you accept these promises, you are already partaking of the divine, and the corruption of the world fades as your consciousness is renewed. Begin with faith as the seed, then invite virtue and see virtue as an actual mood you wear. Knowledge follows as insight into your true self; temperance becomes the discipline of your desires; patience the quiet endurance of the inner observer. Then come godliness, aligning you with a sacred rhythm, and from that place flow brotherly kindness and charity as your natural way of being toward others. The practical path is to dwell in one state at a time, assume it, feel it real, and notice the outer world rearrange to reflect the inner atmosphere you cultivate.
