Inner Inheritance and Wise Servant

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the wise servant as your calm, disciplined I AM—the inner state that rules your house of thoughts. The son that causeth shame is the restless belief that someone or something outside you can dethrone that ruler. When you refuse to feed that belief and instead seat the wise servant on the throne of your imagination, you begin to rule your inner world. The inheritance is the wealth of beingness, health, harmony, and opportunities that arise as you dwell in that state. Proverbs speaks of governance and sharing among the brethren—the other facets of yourself that share in this inner wealth. In Neville's psychology, every character and event mirrors a state of consciousness; thus, the wise ruler can claim control over the 'shame' tableau simply by assuming and maintaining the state of the ruler. Persist in the feeling that you already possess the inheritance, and the outer scene will rearrange to reflect that inner government. The Kingdom of God is your present awareness, not a future place; you awaken it through the act of ruling with the inner wisdom you already are.
