Sacred Inner Boundaries

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville's psychology, the verse invites us to guard the sanctity of our inner states. The 'father' stands for the authority or principle you presently acknowledge as source, and the 'wife' of that authority is a form or attachment that once belonged to a previous state. To 'uncover' the nakedness is to attempt to own or expose what belongs to another state of consciousness, to merge with a past energy rather than letting the I AM govern. The command to hold this boundary is not a petty rule but a faithful maintenance of the inner law. When you honor the boundary, you conserve the purity of your current self and avoid the restless mixing that disturbs your creative power. Holiness and separation are practical qualities: they keep your imagination free to re-create reality from the one living I AM. Obedience here is trust—consistently returning your attention to the present I AM and treating every inner boundary as a doorway through which reality is formed. Do this and your life reflects the clear, uncorrupted image of your dominant consciousness.
