Entering The Inner Rest

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville vantage, 'rest' is not a distant prize but the ongoing state of I AM-awareness you cultivate in attention. The warning about coming short is a nudge to stop negotiating with lack and to turn decisively toward the consciousness that already rests in you. The promised entering is a present fact—feel it as real now by assuming the completed state and letting the feeling of wholeness fill your lungs, your heart, your every breath. Fear, in Neville's terms, is simply misdirected imagination—an attempt to prove you are separate from the rest. When you refuse that tale and persist in the felt presence of the rest, outer life harmonizes to the inner note. The verse thus becomes a practice: dwell in the consciousness of completed being, and the rest you seek is not elsewhere but within your own I AM.
