Render Dues and Honor Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Render therefore to all their dues is not a demand for outward compliance alone but a symbol of the inner order I affirm. I am aware that every scene of the outer world answers to the state of consciousness I entertain. The taxes, customs, fear, and honour are inner movements named in the vocabulary of life: dues I owe to the life I inhabit, honor I accord to the divine in others as a reflection of the divine within me, fear I notice and revise by the I AM. When I render tribute, I acknowledge the law of circulation: what I declare as true in me returns to me as circumstance. When I render custom, I align with a habitual pattern I have chosen in consciousness, and I watch how it shapes my experiences. When fear arises, I do not fight it; I turn to the I AM and reaffirm the state I desire. When I honour, I recognise the other as a revelation of the same essence within me. The outer order of duties thus becomes the natural manifestation of inner insistence: I am the law, I am order, and I am free to render now. To practice, assume the feeling that you have already rendered what is due, and let your world echo that reality.
