Perpetual Prayer and Watchfulness

Neville's Inner Vision

To continue in prayer is to dwell in the state of your wish until your inner conviction remains unshaken. Prayer is not asking from without; it is the I AM conversing with itself—the self that you truly are—an ongoing dialogue of awareness. When you watch, you observe the inner movements of thought and feeling as currents of consciousness, and you choose to align them with the reality you intend rather than with lack. Thanksgiving is the posture that declares the desired state already real, a grateful recognition that seals the assumption and broadcasts it to the inner I AM. In this interior discipline you do not beg God apart from you; you acknowledge you are the source and condition through which all things arise. Stay aware of your inner state, revise any belief that denies your wish, and feel the end as already completed in you. The life you experience is the fruit of the persistent inner atmosphere you cultivate through quiet, grateful contemplation.
