Inner Banquet of Authority

Neville's Inner Vision

Esther 5:4-5 presents not a simple dinner but a living symbol for the activity of consciousness. Esther embodies the I AM, the aware self, and the banquet becomes a field where images are prepared and approved. When she says, 'If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day,' she is launching a decree within the inner court: invite both ruling power and fear into the space where your intention will be set. The king’s command to hasten Haman mirrors a decision of alignment—your higher self inviting every appearing factor to join the scene of your wish. In this inner act, mercy and discernment cooperate; the outward politics mirrors your inner negotiation with truth. The apparent Haman is not an enemy to resist but a part of the dream that you may redirect toward the good through your state of imagination. The practical message: you are the ruler; your banquet is the arena where belief, feeling, and image fuse into reality.
