Silence of Hidden Deeds

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the Neville Goddard lens, this verse shifts from condemning daylight acts to revealing a condition of consciousness. It teaches that there is no outer crime but an inner state that imagines itself as separate from the light. The ‘secret deeds’ you wish never to name are not happenings in a room but movements within your own awareness. Shame arises when you mistake the I AM for a mere spectator and forget that you are the one who imagines the world you call reality. The remedy is simple: assume the truth of your own wholeness. Do not battle shadows; awaken to the I AM that is always present, the light by which all things are seen. When you dwell in the feeling of your own purity—knowing you are the creator and the created—you reverse the spell. Secret acts lose their grip because you stop validating them with attention and instead validate the light in you. In this, the apparent darkness becomes a doorway to realization; the outside speaks only what the inside has already decided.
