Vision Within Vision: Daniel 8:1
Daniel 8:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Daniel 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Daniel records a vision in the third year, following the first vision. This shows a continuing inner revelation within his consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
This line reveals that the vision is not an external event but the awakening of the I AM within. 'Unto me' means the witness in you recognizes itself as the source of sight. The third year marks a deeper season of awareness, where the previous image has matured into a fuller inner representation. Belshazzar’s reign stands as the noise of egoic thoughts and worldly conditions; the vision comes after that first image because consciousness has grown capable of holding another form. The true Kingdom is present now, as imagination clarifies the field of your experience. When Daniel says the vision appeared unto him, he implies that your inner sight is active whenever you attend with steady attention. The inner revelation emerges from stillness in which you identify with the I AM rather than with the moving forms. As you dwell in that mode of awareness, the outer events begin to align with the image you hold, and the sense of continuity—vision after vision—confirms that God, or I AM, speaks again through the screen of your life.
Practice This Now
Assume the vision has already appeared to you, now and here. Revise your sense of self to the state of that vision, and feel it real as you walk, breathe, and act today.
