Inner Earth: The Corruption Within

Genesis 6:11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Genesis 6 in context

Scripture Focus

11The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
Genesis 6:11

Biblical Context

Genesis 6:11 states that the earth itself became corrupt and filled with violence, signaling that outer events mirror inner consciousness. Your world arises from your mental states, not from chance or history alone.

Neville's Inner Vision

By Goddard's lamp, the note of Genesis 6:11 is not a history lesson but a whisper of your present condition. The earth is the ground of awareness, and when it is described as corrupt and filled with violence, it is your mind acknowledging a corrupted assumption and a turbulent feeling within. Violence is inner agitation—the clashing thoughts, fears, and rigid identifications that seem to populate your scene. The crumbling earth speaks of a belief in separation, a sense that life is lacking, threatened, or under judgment. But notice that the text does not offer a doom to be endured; it invites a transformation of the state of consciousness. The remedy is to refuse the old premises and adopt a new I AM—the all-sufficient, unassailable observer who is not rattled by appearances. When you embody a consistent sense of wholeness, blessing, and divine order, the external forms change to reflect that inner condition. Practice becomes simple: assume you are already the observer who governs, and feel the reality of a harmonious world arising from that unwavering awareness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume the state of I AM now; feel the calm pervading your mind as you imagine the earth purified and bathed in light for a minute.
