Inner Discernment in Proverbs

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this verse you are not being warned about strangers but about your own states of consciousness. To devise evil is to entertain a fear-based plan in the privacy of your imagination, and that inner movement becomes your reality. The thought of foolishness is sin because it keeps you anchored in petty, reactive patterns rather than in the I AM that perceives, loves, and creates. The scorner is the inner voice that condemns, jokes, and belittles—an attitude that alienates you from men and from your true self. When you recognize these movements as inner dispositions, you stop blaming outer circumstances and begin to alter the very atmosphere of your mind. Your remedy is to rise into a higher state of awareness and declare your true identity: I am the I AM, the witness and creator; I do not consent to harm, nor do I dwell on vanity or contempt. Reframe every thought as a signal and revise it into constructive purpose. As you dwell in that awareness, you will notice harmonies form in your life because imagination is the womb of form and awareness is the substance.
