Seeing Beyond Self-Deception

Neville's Inner Vision

From a Neville vantage, the Pharisees are a state of consciousness that proclaims, I see with certainty, therefore I am righteous. Their question, Are we blind also? exposes the very blindness that cannot admit it is the inner alignment that governs sight. Jesus' reply flips the script: if you were blind, you would have no sin; but you say, We see, and thus your sin remains. Sin here is not mere acts but the stubborn identity that denies the I AM behind perception. To change what you call reality, you must change your inner stance. The world obeys the inner governor you assume. If you declare, I am the light by which I see, feel that vision is already true, and dwell in it—the judgments soften, your discernment sharpens, and truth becomes your experienced present. The apparent opposition of self-righteousness and truth collapses into one living consciousness, and you awake to a broader, kinder seeing that dissolves the need to prove who you are.
