Relocating the Inner Altar

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville Goddard’s lens, the bronze altar is a symbol of the worship you keep before awareness. The text shows not a cosmetic rearrangement of sacred furniture, but a shift in where you posture your devotion in the theatre of your mind. Moving the altar from the forefront of the house to the north side signals you can relocate your focus without reducing love or reverence; you simply change the alignment of attention from a visible display to a quiet yet constant presence. The God of your I AM does not dwell in a particular corner of the building; He dwells wherever you attend with the awareness that you are that very awareness. Therefore true worship is not a ceremony confined to a place, but a state of consciousness that you cultivate by obedience to inner leading. The removal invites holiness and separation: it is the discipline of keeping your primary altar within, where it cannot be swept away by shifting winds of circumstance, yet remains accessible in every moment.
