Unified Praise in the Mind

Neville's Inner Vision

Psalm 67:3 is not about a distant audience; it is a map of your inner world. The 'people' symbolize the many facets of your consciousness—praise, doubt, memory, desire—each ready to join in one song when you turn your attention to the I AM. When you declare, 'Let the people praise thee,' you are not commanding an external God; you are inviting your entire being to align with the divine presence that already dwells as you. In Neville's terms, praise is a state of consciousness, a feeling of gratitude and recognition that dissolves separation. As you maintain that mood, unity emerges: the inner chorus mirrors unity with 'all the people' in your heart, and situation after situation in your life begins to harmonize with that inner note. The practice is simple: cultivate the sense that the I AM within you is the source of all praise, and imagine others joining in the same song. The more real you make that felt truth, the more your world reflects it: joyful, communal, and saturated with God's presence.
