Inner Speech of Integrity

Neville's Inner Vision

The line is not a mere command to the mouth but a declaration of the state you inhabit. In Neville’s terms, your lips speak from the state of consciousness you accept as real; if you dwell in deceit, your words betray that inner occupancy. This verse invites you to reclaim the I AM as the authoritative speaker—the awareness through which all utterances arise. When you imagine yourself as the living embodiment of truth, you stop narrating fear and illusion and begin to acknowledge what your consciousness already knows. The vow becomes a practice of revision: whenever thought or word slips into deceit, you inwardly revise it to align with the reality you now accept—the reality of integrity, purity, and separation from falsehood. Sustaining this inner speech creates harmony between your inner state and outward utterance, and the world you experience begins to reflect that inner alignment.
