Quieting the Inner Accuser

Neville's Inner Vision

Luke 11:53-54 becomes a map of inner conflict. The scribes and Pharisees are not only people but states of consciousness—fear, need for control, and the habit of pointing fingers. When they press him to speak and seek to trap him, notice that the outer scene mirrors an inner tendency to prove oneself through words. The I AM within you remains untouched by such tests; it is the witness behind every thought and accusation. To practice, assume you are the I AM who hears without attachment and refuses to be defined by others' judgments. Speak, or remain silent, from the inner witness, and let your words reflect inner truth rather than an urge to defend. By revising the belief that you are at the mercy of external speech, you align with a steadier reality where your inner law governs expression. In that alignment, speech becomes a natural outward expression of the untroubled I AM.
