Stand in Your Inner Place

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the camp as your field of consciousness, and the men as the fixed states of awareness you cling to. When you stand in your place—unmoved, centered in I AM—the outer army's cry and chaos have nowhere to land in your sight. The fleeing host is not a historical army but the movement of fear in your mind, driven from your circle by the certainty you maintain. Each moment you refuse to vacate your post, you demonstrate that the world bends to the inner order you affirm. The verse teaches that the discipline of attention governs events; not the size of the army, but the firmness of the posture. As you hold your inner place, you observe the apparent chaos recede, the noise fade, and a quiet authority emerge, revealing that the entire drama is a projection of your own consciousness. This is the practical magic: you revise your state to be the one who stands watchfully at the center, and the outer world rearranges to mirror that consistency.
