Innocence Beyond Suffering: Inner Reality

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the I AM lens, these lines are not a complaint but a statement of inner reality. The claims of the outer world—‘he findeth occasions against me,’ ‘I am his enemy,’ and the sense of being fixed in a difficult path—are movements of consciousness, not fixed facts. Your true self, the I AM, proclaims 'I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.' When you accept that you are innocent in the deepest sense, you neutralize the imagined accuser within and around you. The trial becomes a signaling device that invites you to revise your inner state rather than fight appearances. The stocks and the paths are symbols of habitual thought and limited self-concepts; you rearrange them by choosing a new ending: your life is governed by your sustained awareness of innocency and integrity. In this light, suffering dissolves into a gentle reminder to dwell in your I AM, to feel its certainty, and to allow the outer scene to echo your inner calm. The moment you assume this, the world begins responding as a faithful reflection of your inner state.
