Inner Burial, Living Promise

Neville's Inner Vision

In the temple of your mind, the man of God lives as a living principle, and the corpse upon the donkey is the old, mortal thought-body that carried that living principle into plain view. The donkey is the vehicle through which inner truth travels from declaration to embodiment. The old prophet who arrives to mourn is your old belief system—the part of you that clings to appearances and fears the disruption of change. When the corpse is laid in his own grave, the inner drama shows that the truth is not a thing you acquire but a state you embody, and the old state is closed, honored, and laid to rest. The city is your mind, the grave is a new alignment within, and the act of burying marks integration: the living I AM now inhabits the places once ruled by fear, doubt, or limitation. The lament, 'Alas, my brother,' becomes recognition that two states are kin—parts of the same consciousness. Thus death and burial become a blessing: you release the old and awaken to unity, the present I AM rejoicing in its rightful home within you, your inner community sealed in harmony.
