Eutychus and the Sleep Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Understand that Eutychus is not a boy in a house but a state of consciousness perched at a window—the mind gazing outward and nodding to every passing sensation. Paul’s long preaching is the persistent Voice of I AM within you, the vivid assertion that you are the life of your world. The fall from the third loft marks the collapse of a worn-out self-image when it yields to the dream of separation. The ‘dead’ body is a belief in limitation, not a real equivalent of you; within you remains life, ready to be revived by a moment of willing revision. When you identify as the I AM, the window becomes a door; your imagined scene can be rewritten in the present tense. The inner Paul speaks now as you revise the scene from fear to faith, from sleep to awakeness. Eutychus thus rises not by chance but by your decision to inhabit a higher idea with feeling as real as the old belief felt. The resurrection is your natural state when you consent to imagine the truth and dwell there until it fills your experience.
