Restful Yoke of the I AM

Neville's Inner Vision

Recall that the invitation in Matthew 11:28-30 is not to perform more, but to awaken to a state of awareness that already rests within you. The labor you feel is the mind forgetting its true nature as the I AM. When you come unto me, you turn attention from the outer scene and align with the reality of your own inner light. The yoke is not a burden to bear but a pattern you choose to identify with—one that liberates you from striving by surrendering to the meekness of heart. Meekness here means clarity of perception, a quiet trust in the I AM that you really are; it is the lowly place where you cease to supplement lack with more effort and simply rest in being. In this inner alignment, rest arises as the soul’s natural condition, and the weight on the mind dissolves as attention stops resisting. If you practice this alignment, you discover that the I AM is not distant but the very current of life; through its gentle discipline, the burden becomes light and your wisdom deepens.
