Inner Night, Inner Comfort

Neville's Inner Vision

Observe the lament as the night of the mind: a moment when outer comforts seem to fail and tears wash the cheeks, signaling a belief in absence. The lovers and friends are not beings to blame but habit-patterns of thought that have comforted you in the past. Their betrayal exposes the false center you have mistaken for yourself. In this Neville reading, there is a deeper truth: the I AM—the steadfast awareness that you are—never leaves you, never forgets you, and never depends on others for peace. The scene is not punishment but invitation: you may revise the situation by recognizing that abandonment is only a thought arising in consciousness. When you refuse to identify with it and instead dwell in the one, unchanging presence within, the sense of loneliness dissolves and heartache loses its grip. Your true comfort is not a person’s return but your decision to acknowledge yourself as the source of comfort, abundance, and unity. The night becomes a doorway through which a new self-vision enters, aligning your feelings with your permanent divine state.
