Inner Trial Genesis 31:36

Neville's Inner Vision

Jacob’s outcry is not a record of a quarrel with a man named Laban, but a moment in your own mind when you awaken to the feeling of separation and accusation. The ‘trespass’ and ‘sin’ are not deeds done to you by another; they are alarms sounded by a mind asleep to its true nature. In Neville’s psychology, Jacob represents your I AM awareness assuming the form of a man who feels attacked by images in the dream of life. Laban is not a separate person but a name for the outer conditions born of your own doubtful state. The hot pursuit is the stubborn momentum of fear pressing against your sense of oneness with God. When you hear the question, 'What is my trespass?' you are being called back to the reality that no trespass exists where absolute being abides. The remedy is simple: assume the truth of your unity, revise the scene to align with your divine innocence, and feel the I AM vibrate through every scene until the sense of attack dissolves into quiet, confident peace. Your righteousness is your awareness, not the verdict of another.
