Mammon and Inner Stewardship

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville lens, the passage reveals that mammon is not a pile of coins but a state of consciousness that pretends to own you. The call to 'make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness' is an invitation to employ your imaginative power to convert the energy of wealth into relationships that echo everlasting habitations within you. When the text says 'he that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much,' it is your inner practice daily: attend to the little choices, the pennies of perception, the thoughts you nurture, and you are training your inner steward who will be trusted with 'true riches' when the outer appearances crack. 'No servant can serve two masters' speaks to the inner conflict between fear of shortage and faith in abundance. You cannot worship both; you must choose the I AM that guides your attention. The feeling is the key: when you relax into the sense that you are already rich in spiritual provision, the false scarcities dissolve and all things come to you as a natural extension of your inner state.
