Inner Roof, Inner Command

Neville's Inner Vision

This verse is not a distant tale of a king and an object of desire, but a vivid image of your own inner roof of awareness. The evening tide signals a time when the faculties are relaxed and images can seem to take hold. The roof is the vantage point of consciousness; when you 'see' something, you are witnessing a thought-form arising in the mind. The danger lies in identifying with the image and thinking it must govern your actions. The corrective is to awaken to I AM, the unchanging awareness that is the true you. You are the watcher, not the deed; you can revise the moment by assuming the state you desire as already present and letting the impulse melt into light as you remain in peace. Practice a quiet act of revision: notice the impulse, declare I AM, and replace the scene with a sense of integrity and obedience to the divine within. By dwelling in that inner assurance, the image loses its power, and your life reflects purity rather than fear or guilt.
