Perfect Hatred Reinterpreted

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville Goddard vantage, the cry is not a call to attack others but a revelation of your inner boundaries. 'Hatred' here is the fiery boundary of consciousness that refuses to occupy a mind torn by thoughts opposing the divine I AM. The 'enemies' are those beliefs and impulses pretending separation, not flesh-and-blood foes. When you hear 'I hate them with perfect hatred,' hear it as the perfect clarity with which you refuse to identify with anything that denies your oneness with God. It is the disciplined discernment that keeps your inner temple clean from contamination by fear, judgment, or grievance. The key is to realize you are the I AM and that your world is stirred by your inner state; thus, hatred becomes a signal to revise, not to retaliate. Embrace the truth that the unity of God within you dissolves the illusion of separation, and let your feeling be one of unassailable integrity and purity.
