Inner Snare of Holy Vows

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice the scene as a man in your own mind who eats what is consecrated and then asks questions as if the vow would save him. In Neville's terms, places are states, so the act of devouring what is holy represents indulging a belief that is not in harmony with your higher consciousness. The 'vows' are outward agreements made while the inner conviction remains unsettled. The snare appears when the I AM, your true awareness, is entangled with appetite and impulse, seeking external validation after the fact. The remedy is simple: turn your attention inward and assume the lasting, sacred state that already knows what is true. In that renewed state, your inquiries are not for the purpose of trapping you in obligation but to confirm alignment with the Holy in you. By refusing to use vows as a cover for inner compromise, you build discernment and integrity. Your imagination is the altar; treat what is holy as always protected by your inner law, and the world will follow the steady rhythm of your constant awareness.
