Luminous Speech And Inner Truth

Neville's Inner Vision

Your tongue is not merely a tool of language; it is the outward sign of your inner state. When you condemn another with deceit or clothe your motive in flattery, you are hating the afflicted in your own consciousness, for the world you perceive is a reflection of your inner self. The wheel of causes turns in the quiet realm of imagination; to lie or flatter is to invest belief in a picture that harms, and that picture returns as ruin in your relationships, health, or circumstance. The remedy is to dwell in the truth of your I AM, to revise every sentence that would betray integrity, and to feel the reality of right speech as the living law of your being. By assuming the truth of compassionate, truthful speech—seeing the other as blessed in your awareness—you align your entire life with harmony and accountability. The lie collapses under the weight of an assumed truth, and the ruin vanishes as you awaken to the unity of consciousness between your word and your world.
