Upside-Down World Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, within you the 'Jews' of unbelief are the stale states of consciousness clinging to an old story. When a new vision steps forth, envy may stir your mind to mobilize an uproar, dragging witnesses to the petty courts of opinion. The 'house of Jason' is your former sense of security; when the living idea contradicts them, you feel the pressure of the crowd of your old beliefs pressing toward the rulers of your self-doubt. But the secret of the gospel is this: the ones who turned the world upside down have come here too—your I AM, your higher self, overturning the old order. The inner kingdom is already on the move, quietly reordering what you accept as reality. Your work is to bless this turning as accomplished in consciousness, and to persist in feeling the truth of it until the outer world mirrors the new arrangement.
