The True Vine Within

Neville's Inner Vision

John 15:1 quiets the outer scene and invites you into the substance of consciousness: I am the true vine, and the Father is the gardener of your inner field. The vine represents your living awareness; the sap that feeds it is attention, the breath of now. The branches are your various states of mind—thoughts, feelings, regrets, hopes—and they bear fruit only when drawn into the life that undergirds them. The Father’s pruning is not punishment but correction of mistaken use of energy: as you revise belief away from lack and separation toward presence and unity, you become more fruit-bearing. You are not a separate branch groping for sustenance; you are the I AM at the center of the vine, sending and receiving life through every moment. When you abide in the source, fear dissolves into trust, scarcity yields to abundance, and old identities are replaced by new experiences of vitality. The work is interior: cultivate the posture of awareness that recognizes you are the life in whom the world unfolds.
