Biblical Context

Lamentations 5:16-17 laments that the crown has fallen due to sin, leaving the heart faint and the eyes dim.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the I AM within, this passage is not a history of guilt but a map of states of consciousness. The crown is fallen not as a punishment in an external ledger, but as a belief that you are less than whole. Sin here stands for a settled identification with lack, limitation, and appearance. When you say woe unto us, you are waking up to the awareness that you have identified with a state as if it were you. The remedy is not external reform but a change of inner assumption. Turn your attention from the outward scene to the fact that you are the I AM, the sole consciousness in which all events arise. Assume you are crowned with power, clarity, and right order, and let the feeling of that reality flood your heart until the faintness dissolves and the eyes no longer dim. The more you dwell in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, the more the outer crown of circumstance is restored to its rightful place in your inner kingdom.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, and revise by declaring I AM crowned with wholeness now, then feel the crown resting on your head as your heart steadies and your vision clears.
