Inner Psalm of Release

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the verse not as a verdict of outer fate but as a confession of inner state. In your psalm, the speaker's acquaintance appear far away because the mind has drifted into separation; the 'abomination' is not a moral verdict but the feeling of being alien to your own center. The I AM, the aware Self, is past the complaint and simply notices that you have formed a landscape of isolation with your imagination. When you identify with this inner territory, you shut yourself up, as if a door were closed against life. But the inner law is reversible: you can reoccupy your own consciousness with the feeling of companionship by assuming a new state and inhabiting it with the certainty that you are loved and not banished. By returning to the awareness that God is the I AM within you, you begin to radiate a reality in which others return as you have invited them by your inner posture. Your present experience is the fruit of your inner assumptions; claim a different one and the outward scene follows.
