Inner Witness, Honest Truth

Neville's Inner Vision

All together: This injunction reveals that every neighbor you meet is a state of consciousness within you. To bear false witness against another is to misread your own inner world, labeling a temperament, a flaw, or a moment as fixed and real. In Neville's terms, God is the I AM, and imagination is the instrument by which you sketch your life. When you judge another as lacking, you are projecting lack into your own experience and confirming a divided self. The truth is that you are always witnessing your inner state, and the outer scene simply reflects your inner verdict. The commandment is a call to keep your inner speech aligned with integrity, so that your life follows the truth you cherish. By choosing to affirm honesty within, you awaken a consistent outer world that mirrors your settled conviction. Practice this binding: assume the truth you desire about others, revise any negative label, and feel it real through an unshakable conviction in your I AM.
