Listening to the Inner Father

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this passage the father is your own I AM, the enduring mind that knows and loves you. Hear the words as the inner God within you, not as outward command but as the shift of your state. The good doctrine and my law are the inner patterns by which consciousness operates; to forsake them is to forget who you are, while attending to them is to remember. When you dwell in the feeling of the I AM, the law becomes automatic: your thoughts align, your choices reflect wisdom, and discernment arises with ease. The instruction is practical: you revise your current state by assuming you already understand and that you live by an unshakable inner counsel. This is not external obedience but inner alignment, an unbroken stream of awareness that guides perception, motive, and action. So, attend to the inner understanding as you would attend to a teacher who reveals your true nature. As you embody the law, you discover that good doctrine is the habit of consciousness, and wisdom becomes your present experience rather than a distant rule.
