Dissolving Pride Within

Neville's Inner Vision

In this vision, the 'Lord' is your I AM awareness, and the 'whole work' is the complete alignment of your inner states until the stout heart of ego is dissolved. The 'king of Assyria' embodies the stubborn self-image that believes in separation and exerts control through pride. When you assume the end—that you have completed the inner work on Zion and Jerusalem, that you are now living from the light of I AM—you witness the ego’s glory fading. The punishment is simply the dissolution of belief in the ego’s reality; the external world then reflects a new inner truth. The inner work precedes any change in form; your awareness is the power guiding all appearances. Practice is not punishment but a revision of your consciousness toward wholeness, a feel-it-real within the present moment. Stay with the feeling of completed transformation, allow fear to recede, and permit the outer signs to harmonize with your renewed awareness, knowing your inner empire governs all outward form.
