The Upright Path Within

Proverbs 15:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Proverbs 15 in context

Scripture Focus

21Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly.
Proverbs 15:21

Biblical Context

Folly brings surface joy to the unwise; the person who understands chooses to walk upright.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner realm, Proverbs speaks not of people alone but states of consciousness. Folly is the vibration of a mind separated from its I AM, chasing transient pleasures and clinging to appearances. The 'man of understanding' is the state that knows itself as God’s I AM—aware, present, and upright in thought and action. When you assume you are that man, you shed the surface joy of folly and begin walking upright because your inner alignment dictates outer forms. Your world becomes a mirror of your inner state: you act with consistent integrity, guided by the law that you are already righteous. If you slip into folly, revise the scene by returning to the I AM and the feeling of your end state—already upright, already just, already whole. Imagination is the lever; belief is the handle; attention to your inner state is the door.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, 'I am upright now in God.' Feel your spine align, chest lift, and inner light rise; carry this state into one choice you make today.
