Inner Scattering, Inner Return

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the inner eye, the command that I will scatter you among the heathen is not a history but a state of consciousness. In Neville’s terms, the land desolate and your cities wasted are inner conditions that have believed themselves separate from the I AM within. The 'heathen' without becomes the disjointed thoughts, memories, and fears that roam the mind when alignment with the all-knowing I Am is forgotten. The remedy is to reverse the decree by assuming a new stance: I am the one consciousness that gathers all scenes and returns them to their rightful sovereign in me. Exile becomes the movement of attention away from wholeness; but attention can return. By imagining and feeling from the end—seeing myself whole, fulfilled, and united—these scattered parts respond as if drawn back to the center. The proof is in the feeling: when I act as if I am already complete, the inner divisions cease, even if outward appearances seem unchanged. The inner decree becomes the outer order.
