Inner Clarity in Isaiah 28:7

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the priests and prophets are your inner authorities—the discursive judgments of mind. The wine and strong drink are not merely what you drink, but what you identify with through the senses—the pleasures, opinions, and fears that intoxicate attention. When you yield to them, your inner vision becomes blurred and your judgments stumble, and you mistake appearances for truth. This is not a decree of punishment, but a condition of consciousness: you have drifted from your I AM, the steady awareness that is always awake to imagination. To recover sight, return to the sovereign state of I AM. Assume the feeling that you are the presence that sees, not the images that pass. Rehearse a revision: 'I am the observer, I am the source of clarity, I am the one who sees rightly.' In that assumed state, the inner priest and prophet reorient toward discernment, and your outer world reflects a purified thought. The antidote to error is not further argument, but conscious alignment with the fact you are the created, and the creator, in the same moment.
