Inner Paths of Wisdom

Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner sight is not watching from afar; it is the I AM that perceives your goings. The 'ways of man' in the proverb are the movements of consciousness you continually entertain, not distant streets. When you habitually cling to fear, lack, or separation, you bind yourself with cords of your own making, and the so-called wickedness is simply a mistaken pattern of thought mistaken for reality. The cords tighten as you identify with a story about yourself that excludes wisdom, until inner instruction seems impossible. Yet the verse points to an inner mechanism of reversal: you can cut every cord by assuming a stronger truth in place of the old belief. The I AM does not condemn you; it energizes your life according to what you attend to. To 'die without instruction' is to abandon the inner teacher, and to 'go astray' is to forget that revision is always available. So dwell in the certainty that you are already seen, guided, and corrected by infinite wisdom. Revise, feel it real, and let the path align with your true nature.
