Inner Embrace of the I Am

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture this line as a doorway into consciousness, not a literal kiss of hands. The left hand under the head is the steady support of awareness supporting your thinking, your dreams, your plans; the right arm embracing you is the active, all-encompassing love of the I AM wrapping you in the present moment. In Neville terms, you do not seek protection from God; you shift into the state of being protected by God—by consciousness personified as the I AM. When you dwell in that state, fear dissolves, and your sense of separation softens into belonging. The verse invites you to revise your feeling: rest in the awareness that you are held, and let your imagination bring that reality into your outward experience. Practice feels-real: assume the posture in imagination, say, 'I am held by the I AM,' and breathe into it until the sensation of embrace relaxes every fiber of your being.
