Temple Cleansing in 2 Chronicles

Neville's Inner Vision

Observe that the report speaks not of stone, but of state of consciousness. The house of the LORD is your mind; the altar of burnt offering is your directing desire; the vessels and the shewbread table are your mental faculties and nourishing thoughts. When the priest confesses that all is cleansed, it signals a shift in your inner weather: you have cleared the hidden residues that fed fear, resistance, or isolation. To Hezekiah, cleansing is a preparation for worship; to you, it is the moment you decide that awareness is whole, unpolluted by old habit. From this state, new ideas, inspiration, and right action flow as if the holy things are once more arranged in proper order. Your imagination becomes the temple's sanctuary: you attend to it with purity, you guard it from noisy distractions, you feed it on truth. This is true worship: a return to recognize the I AM within as the sole authority, the place where all power, all virtue, and all life originate.
