The Inner Restitution Law

Neville's Inner Vision

To the reader in Neville's mode, the law is not a ledger of outward penalties but a mirror of your inner state. When loss appears, the 'thief' is not a man but a belief—an imbalanced thought that has crept into your house of awareness. If you discover the thief and he pays double, you are learning to restore your inner sense of abundance by affirming you own all you perceive, not by blaming another. If the thief remains unseen, the master of the house stands before the judges—the inner faculties of discernment and imagination—that test whether you have allowed another's goods to insinuate into your sense of self. The outer double restitution becomes inner double clarity: you double your attention, double your imagination, until your state of possession matches the reality you intend. Thus, the liability and justice of the ancient text become a rhythm of inner restoration, transforming justice into the activity of your I AM.
