Silent Vow, Honest Heart

Neville's Inner Vision

To the reader, the vow is not a pledge you make to the future, but a movement of your consciousness. When you forbear to vow, you are not denying commitment; you are releasing the urge to shape the world with external words. The verse teaches that sin is not in the quiet decision to refrain, but in an inner state that would condemn the present moment as lacking. The I AM within you is the source of all promise; to vow is to set a future condition upon your present awareness. Instead, return to the awareness that you are the creator, that your present consciousness fills the scene. If you want a thing, you do not chase it with words; you imagine from the end and feel the reality of your already-completed state. Your vow, if any, is to remain faithful to your true being, not to a plan. By not vowing externally, you practice alignment with your inner self and let the state you desire unfold from within.
