Neville's Inner Vision

To the inner listener, Luke's brief line is not a travel note but a map of your consciousness. When they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth. The 'law' is the I AM—your abiding awareness that governs every thought and feeling. To perform according to the law is to align your inner states with that divine order, so that no thought disobeys your essential nature. The return to Nazareth is not a geographical retreat, but a movement of consciousness back home, into the quiet town where you know yourself as complete. Obedience here means faithfulness to the inner command, not compliance with external rule, for the law you live by is the law you feel in your chest as truth. When you consciously dwell in that inner Nazareth, you discover that the world outside is a mirror of the stabilized state you have already imagined. The inner journey precedes any outward change, and the completed ritual of inner law becomes the starting point of your life.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume that you have already observed the inner law; feel the I AM settled in your chest as if you have returned home. Now let your outer world reflect that inner alignment.
