Salted Sorrow, Inner Taste

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville reading, the unsavory is not an enemy but a signal of a current state of consciousness. Salt is not a condiment but an act of awareness—an inner seasoning that names what is real to the I AM. When you resist or recoil, you are simply acknowledging a belief about yourself, not a fact about the world. You can revise this moment by choosing to taste your life with the intention that nothing harms you, for you are the one who gives meaning to every bite. By imagining the bite as salted by your own awareness, sorrow is metabolized into nourishment rather than punishment. The things you would not touch become interpreted as opportunities to expand your range of perception; each bite becomes a lesson in how your interior state transforms exterior experience. The practice is to dwell in the feeling that the I AM has already tasted and approved of this experience, making it part of your inner diet. Do not seek to escape hardship; rather, allow the inner I AM to convert hardship into nourishment through conscious tasting.
