The Inner Tree Of Choice

Neville's Inner Vision

Genesis 3:6 is a map of consciousness, not a report of history. The woman represents a state that has forgotten its oneness with the Whole and trusts appearances—the tree as 'food,' as 'pleasant to the eye,' and as the source of 'wisdom'—more than the I AM that sustains. When she takes the fruit, she identifies with a belief that nourishment, sweetness, and knowing can come from something outside the self. The act of sharing it with Adam mirrors how we validate a belief by projecting it into relationship, thereby reinforcing a sense of separation. In Neville’s psychology, the scene declares that you are always becoming what you imagine, and the Fall is the moment you consent to a secondary sense of knowing rather than the unity of God. Yet the cure is simple: reverse the act by assuming a truer state of being. When you affirm that you are complete in God and that all appearance, appetite, and wisdom flow from that one source, the inner garden reorients and you awaken to a realm where no apparent tree can compel your fate.
