Inner Refuge Of Consciousness

Neville's Inner Vision

Let the image of the city of refuge awaken in you as the awareness that you are the I AM, constant and unmovable. The slayer, the action done without awareness, is simply a movement within your own consciousness; its consequence can be paused by a shift in state. The avenger of blood is not a punitive external force but the insistence of your own memory that you are not safe. When you notice an unconscious act, do not condemn yourself; instead, enter the refuge by imagining you are already inside that inner city, and declare with feeling, I AM safe here. In that moment, the law of your being—the covenant of your true self—reasserts itself, and the outer world begins to rearrange to match this new inner order. This is the Neville method: revision through feeling, assumption that the state is already achieved, and the discipline of dwelling in the consciousness that knows itself as one complete, merciful life.
