Echoes Of The Inner Heart
Ecclesiastes 9:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ecclesiastes 9 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Ecclesiastes 9:3 notes a universal evil in the human heart and death as a common end, suggesting outward events mirror an inner condition. It invites us to see the inner state as causal.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville lens, this verse does not condemn others; it reveals the inner weather that all men carry under what it calls the sun. The 'evil' and 'madness' are not facts of others but the habitual states of consciousness that color every perception and decision. When you identify with a mind that judges, fears, or projects blame, you are living under the sun’s limitation, and death—whether spoken or unspoken—appears as the final argument of that premise. Yet the scripture’s mention of a single event points to a fixed pattern in awareness, not a cosmic verdict. Change the inner narrative, and the external event(s) follow suit. The I AM, your true self, can imagine differently: you can assume a heart that is steadfast, compassionate, and awake to unity. In that assumption, the apparent evil dissolves, for you are now seeing through a new inner lens. The world then becomes the stage for your revived state, not the source of your fate. The only certainty is your inner life; the outer scene answers accordingly.
Practice This Now
Assume a new inner state now—'I am the I AM, unconditionally loved and awake.' Then revise a recent uneasy scene by feeling that this inner state is already true until the outer event aligns.
