Inner Commandment of Love Realized

Neville's Inner Vision

Your mind is the field where this commandment takes root. When you inhabit the I AM that loves as Jesus loved, you begin to see every person as the one you already love. The 'newness' isn't an external instruction but a new inner mood—love as the governing state of awareness, not a tired preference. As you practice, you imagine yourself loving your neighbor with the same unconcerned generosity and sacrificial patience you felt when you first encountered a beloved friend. This isn’t sentimentality; it is the acknowledgment that God and your neighbor are one within your consciousness. Each act of mercy and compassion follows from revising the scene in your mind until it feels real. If you encounter discord, revise the memory to kindness, and feel the sensation of unity shift your outward behavior. The commandment becomes present-tense lived experience: you love because you are already loved, and to love another is to affirm that oneness.
