Inner Sacrifice, Outer Gift

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner reading, the kingly self stands at the altar of your inner life. Araunah is the abundance the inner world places at your disposal—the oxen for sacrifice and the wood for fire—ready to fuel the renewal. When Araunah says, 'Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him,' he is instructing you to choose the state you will sacrifice to: the state you wish to be. The sacrifice is not ritual but revision: you burn away doubt, fear, and limitation by feeling that you already possess the answer within. The oxen and wood become symbolic resources of energy and focus you command by the I AM. The true presence of God is not distant; it is the same I AM that you awaken to when you maintain a single, unwavering assumption. In this moment, your inner covenant is loyalty to that state, and hence your world shifts to reflect it.
