Endings Over Beginnings

Neville's Inner Vision

The inner man, not the outer circumstance, is the one who completes the work. When we hear, 'the end is better than the beginning,' we are being told to identify with the final state in consciousness. The 'end' is a finished pattern in the I AM, not a timeline to be reached by fate but a condition already present in awareness. Pride arises from a sense of separateness; patience arises from the quiet assumption that the thing is done and visible in imagination. Therefore, the true beginning is the end created within. By dwelling for a stretch in the lived feeling of completion—seeing the scene, feeling the relief, acknowledging gratitude—you collapse the gap between desire and manifestation. Everything moves to align with that finished state because the imaginative act laws the world. Do not chase the event; bless the end as if it already exists, and your awareness will pull the outward sequence into alignment. The verse invites you to practice the art of patience as a reorientation of self toward the completed result.
