Inner Purity Beyond Saints

Neville's Inner Vision

Behold the law at work: God is not impressed by outward sanctity, for the I AM inside you decodes all appearances. When you say you trust the saints, you are naming a state of consciousness and yet your present vision still sees fault in them and in the heavens. The verse asks you to notice that your trust is a function of your inner condition, and until that condition changes, purity remains a projection. Turn inward and claim that you are the one who creates the sense of holiness you seek. The saints you admire are signs of your own longing for a perfected state; the heavens you deem unclean reflect judgments you hold toward life. By aligning with the I AM—your constant, non-changing awareness—you discover that purity is not earned from without but disclosed from within. Practice this: assume the feeling of inner purity, revise every outward appearance as a reflection of your inner light, and trust the still, small witness within you rather than the fluctuating world. In that revision, you realize the scale is reversed: you are the heavens you seek, and they become clean.
