Inner Appetite and Purity

Neville's Inner Vision

These lines speak not of distant lands but of your inner state. The flesh at thy gates is the vivid theatre of desire, the experiences your mind may entertain as signs of blessing and abundance. The unclean and the clean both eat thereof, which means all forms are edible to your consciousness when you dwell in a state of presence. The prohibition of the blood is the quiet discipline of inner hygiene: do not drink the lifeblood—the energy of fear, guilt, or loss—nor let it feed your sense of separation. Instead, pour it upon the earth as water, releasing it from your psychic bloodstream and allowing it to return to the ground from which it sprang. When you occupy the I AM as governor, you are free to savor form without becoming its slave. Holiness arises not from denial but from a stable consciousness that refuses to feed on visceral fear, keeping the inner kingdom whole and loyal to the covenant you hold with your Creator within.
