Inner Passover Practice

Neville's Inner Vision

Take the outer chronicle as a map of your inner birth. The children of Israel are the thoughts present in your mind, gathered for a sacred revision; the Passover and the seven days of unleavened bread mark the shedding of old leaven—beliefs and doubts that kept you separate from your true nature. Josiah, the king, stands for a decisive inner act, a compassionate attention that chooses to honor the I AM above mere habit and fear. When you observe a Passover, you do more than remember a festival; you align your inner environment to holiness: the priests and Levites are your faculties of discernment and faith moving in harmony; Jerusalem is your center, the dwelling place of your worship. The 'present,' all Judah and Israel that are there, represents every state of consciousness gathered in the moment you choose to awaken. The eighteenth year signals a fresh epoch within you, a new dawn where a transformed life becomes your ordinary state, not a distant memory but the living reality of the I AM.
