Inner Glory vs Vanity

Neville's Inner Vision

To the listener, this psalm is not a sermon about others, but a mirror of the mind. Glory here is the living presence—the I AM that you awaken to when you stop chasing shadows. Sons of men are the states of consciousness you inhabit when you forget who you are and seek after vanity and leasing—fugitive images that promise effect but deliver emptiness. When you wonder how long you will turn that glory into shame, you are asking how long you will accept a split between your essential self and the world’s judgments. The remedy is simple: give your attention to the inward witness that never wavers. Do not deny the outer, but reinterpret every experience as an image projected by your own consciousness. The true worship is the alignment of your feeling with the I AM, the acceptance that you are already complete, already glorious, and not dependent on appearances or lies. Selah invites you to pause, and in that pause the mind returns to its rightful ruler.
