The fruit of meditation may include messages conveying general teaching or specific guidance but the student will recognize that they emanate from his own mind at its best or from his own intuition. But he will know the Interior Word seems to come to him from a source outside himself, from some higher being or master. It uses his own thought to speak to him but the inspiration for each thought is not his own. This is the Interior Word.
