Inner Crown, Public Display

Neville's Inner Vision

In a Neville Goddard vein, the scene is not about a history lesson but about the state of your consciousness. Absalom's tent on the roof and his entrance into the concubines are symbolic of a mind that has left its inner sanctuary and paraded a private appetite before the world. 'Israel' witnesses the act, representing the collective mind that craves recognition and demonstrative authority. The tent is a projection of an imagined crown—a belief that power is earned by public display rather than by quiet, inner alignment. The act reveals the danger of turning intimate energy (nurturing, creation) into a weapon to prove sovereignty. The remedy is not to condemn but to observe: at any moment you can revise this scene by withdrawing the claim to outer authority and returning to the I AM—your true axis of kingship. When you inhabit the inner kingship, the outer appearances fall away and the mind rests in a single state: I AM, sovereign and unassailable.
