Reigning Truth Within

Neville's Inner Vision

This verse invites you to look within where the kingdom of your mind is ruled by awareness. The king is your I AM, the steadfast consciousness that witnesses thoughts; the princes are your subordinate thoughts and rationalizations. When they are gladdened by wickedness and lies, you are trusting a dream, and your world follows that dream. In Neville’s method, remember that God, the I AM, is ever present, and imagination creates experience. You do not change the world by fighting appearances; you change the inner state and the outer follows. So revise the scene: assume that the king gladdens himself with truth, and that the princes advise with clarity and honesty. Practice the conviction that you reign with integrity, and that your inner court delights in what is true. Persist in feeling it real, and watch how external life reflects the renewed inner atmosphere. By aligning your inner rulers with truth, you dissolve the old allegiance to lies and find yourself already living in a realm where light dispels corruption.
