Inner Separation: A Pure Heart

Neville's Inner Vision

Your true self, the I AM, stands as the steady witness. The froward heart is a state of consciousness that resists harmony, an inner impulse that says I will not know a wicked person. When you read the verse you are being invited to withdraw identification with the discordant thoughts and to separate your sense of self from any image of corruption within your mind. To Neville, separation is not exile but refinement: you remove the vibration of perverse thinking from the field of your awareness. If you imagine yourself in the presence of wickedness, revise inwardly that such a state is not yours and that you are consciousness in which purity and integrity are established. Your daily life becomes a practice in which you align your I AM with holiness, letting go of the inner drama that keeps conflict alive. As you dwell in that inner standpoint, transformation arises from within and your outward experience mirrors the new alignment.
