Inner Vision, Outer Consequences

Lamentations 4:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Lamentations 4 in context

Scripture Focus

14They have wandered as blind men in the streets, they have polluted themselves with blood, so that men could not touch their garments.
Lamentations 4:14

Biblical Context

The verse depicts people wandering blindly and polluting themselves, signaling inner impurity and the judgment that follows. It invites you to see such blindness as a mental state you can revise from within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the act of imagination, the verse speaks of a city of consciousness where men wander as blind ones when awareness is not anchored in a definite I AM. The blood-stained garments symbolize memories of fear and aggression that you carry as if they defined your touch and your relations; they are not worldly stains but signals of inner resistance to life. In your inner theater, you may discover you have polluted yourself with thoughts that condemn you to unreachability, a belief that life cannot touch you. The outer accusation of judgment is simply the echo of an inner verdict you have spoken about yourself. But the scripture does not command you to mend the streets; it invites you to assume a new state. By dwelling in the conviction I AM pure, I AM beloved, I AM untouched by fear, you cleanse the mind and restore a holy contact with all existence. When you hold to that state, actions rearrange, hands reach out, and you move through life with a touch that no longer fears contamination. The blindness dissolves as you accept the truth that consciousness creates all conditions.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Close your eyes and repeat, 'I AM pure; I touch all with purity.' Now imagine walking the streets in a garment that reflects pristine consciousness, and see every encounter spring from that inner state.
