Complaint as Inner Fire

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the pages, notice that the complaint is not about others but about a state of consciousness you bear. The LORD you hear is the I AM within you; when you dwell in complaint, you feed a flame at the edge of your awareness. That flame does not punish others; it reveals the boundary of your present conditions and consumes the outer part of your camp — the bits of your identity that cling to limitation. When you observe this, you realize you can shift the scene by changing your inner assumption. If you declare, 'I AM,' the unconditioned observer, and imagine the scene filled with gratitude and sufficiency, the fire loses its fuel and dies away. The outer effects follow the inner state; the camp becomes still, and you begin to see alignment with your revised sense. The parable is asking you to claim dominion over your inner climate, not to condemn what you see.
