Inner Unity Amid Objections

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the inner theater, the fathers and brethren symbolize the lingering voices of past conditions—the fears and obligations you carry as the old self. Their coming to complain is the appearance of future objections that would block your chosen end. The statement 'Be favorable unto them for our sakes' is a mental posture rather than a policy: you choose to let the entire inner kingdom regard your decision with grace, affirming that harmony is the natural result when you hold your state as complete. By saying 'we reserved not to each man his wife in the war,' you acknowledge your inner completion—your inner marriage to the state you desire—so guilt cannot cling, because you are not acting from lack or fear but from wholeness. This is covenant loyalty: staying true to your inner truth and allowing the inner community to reflect unity. The outer event then arises from the inward assumption. When you treat imagination as law, you arrange harmony through the very objection that once seemed to block it, and you discover you have already won the end within.
