Inner Rest Through Wise Correction

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, 'the son' stands for your inner impulses, habits, and thoughts needing direction. To 'correct thy son' is to refuse the pull of restless images and to anchor attention in the I AM—the unchanging awareness that you are. When you assume the end—that this inner discipline is complete and that rest is already yours—you become the authority by which outer circumstances settle. The rest you feel is not mere quiet but the settled assurance that no claim of doubt can move your inner peace. The 'delight unto thy soul' is the joy that flows when your inner life moves in harmony with your divine nature. This is not punishment but a joyous alignment; you revise your inner picture until it feels inevitable, and the world around you follows as a faithful echo of that state. Remember: you are not chasing rest; you are becoming the state in which rest naturally exists.
