Enduring Ground Within
Ecclesiastes 1:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ecclesiastes 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
One generation passes and another comes, revealing the changing rhythm of life. Yet the earth remains the steady, enduring ground beneath all appearances.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of the verse as a map of your inner weather. The 'generation' that passes is a moving state of consciousness, a tone that rises and dissolves in your mind; the 'earth' that abideth forever is the unchanging I AM—your timeless awareness that witnesses every scene. When you identify with the shifting scenes—fear, desire, memory—you are carried by change and believe life is kept by outer events. But by turning within, you discover that the outer world is a dream projection of your inner state. The earth’s permanence is the still point in which images hover. To work with it, assume a new inner fact: I am the eternal I AM; this awareness remains while forms come and go. Feel this as a lived reality, not a memory of a better time. Each day, revise any sense of lack by returning to that ground of being and acting from it. In time, your experiences align with the stable sense of self you affirm, and you move through generations of change with ease, purpose, and quiet creative power.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare: I am the unchanging earth within; all changing scenes are dreams in my awareness. Revise any sense of lack by affirming, 'I remain the I AM'.
