Inner Burial and Courage Renewal

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the I AM awakens the courage to confront a past identity. The valiant men are your inner faculties aroused by awareness; the retrieval from the wall of Bethshan represents summoning what you have pushed to the edge of consciousness. The burning is not destruction, but purification—letting the old image of failure be consumed by the light of awareness. The bones buried under a tree at Jabesh symbolize laying to rest the memory of that old self where it can no longer haunt you, and the seven days of fasting are a disciplined turning of attention away from mere sensing toward the realization of your new state. As you repeat this inward rite, you declare to the I AM that the past is finished and your present consciousness is whole. The kingdom is within, and the king is the I AM you awaken to becoming.
