Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Psalm 39:3-4 presents the speaker's inner fire as he muses on mortality and asks to know his end and the measure of his days to grasp his frailty.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your focus in Neville’s world is not time but the I AM within. The 'end' spoken of is the end of a limiting self, and the 'days' are the movements of your present state. When the mind is stirred and the inner fire rises, listen: the I AM is your consciousness, the stage upon which time appears. Do not seek facts outside; revise from within until your inner scene confirms the end you seek: you are already whole, and your days flow from your assumed state. Frailty dissolves when you refuse identification with a fading body and instead dwell as timeless awareness. Practice by sensing that the end has already occurred in your inner life, and that the measure of days is set by your decree. Then the world becomes your imagination made visible, and the stirring fire becomes a compass to your true identity.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise: I know my end and the measure of my days, and I am the I AM. Feel the end as a completed state of consciousness now, and let the measure of days be the cadence of your inner state.
