Inner Law Of Proverbs 28:7-12

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the law not as external rule but as your inner state of awareness. In truth, the 'wise son' is the state in which you are aligned with the I AM, the living sense of right order; the riotous companions are restless thoughts that pull you from that center. When you yield to usury or ill-gotten gain, you are not gaining anything outside; you are gathering a pit of contradiction within your own mind, and the poor you pity in imagination is your own neglected quality seeking expression. To turn away your ear from the law is to turn from the guidance of your own higher self, and prayer loses its charge because it becomes merely habit instead of communion. The man who causes the righteous to go astray is the one who breaks inner harmony; eventually, that discord boomerangs into his own experience, while the upright inherit a natural wealth of clarity. The rich’s conceit hides the truth from him, but the discerning poor exposes it. When alignment returns, life glories in you and nothing can obscure your light.
