Fulfilled Desire and Sacred Boundaries

Neville's Inner Vision

In this Proverb the state of the fulfilled desire is not external luck but an inner alignment of I AM with its own end. When the soul tastes sweetness at the imagined conclusion, it is the sensation of consciousness realizing itself as accomplished. The distinction between sweetness and abomination lies in the chooser's heart: fools cling to a shadow of evil, a habit of departing from truth, and call that virtue; the wise, however, turn from what harms the self and dwell in the certainty of the end. Remember, God here is not out there but within: the I AM awakens to its own end and calls the end real in the present. To make the end real, imagine from the end back to the now; feel the joy, the relief, the integrity of having chosen rightly, and let your inner atmosphere comply with that feeling. If a contrary picture arises, revise it by returning to the end and repeating the assumption until it becomes your habitual sensation.
