Exodus Inner Liberation

Neville's Inner Vision

Here, the bondage is not a distant history but an inner climate of mind. The rigour and bitter service symbolize a constant belief in lack, in separation from abundance, and in a God who is distant. Egypt represents the stronghold of fear, duty, and must—an inner Pharaoh that orders your days with bricks and mortar of obligation. When you read that the Israelites were made to serve with rigour, you are hearing the whisper of your own consciousness, telling you what you must do, how you must be, and what you must fear. The deliverance you crave in the future becomes possible the moment you recognize that you are not subject to an external empire, but to the I AM within. The awakening is interior: the recognition that awareness is not bound by the rigour of outward circumstance. The change comes when you revise the belief that bondage is forever, and feel the truth that you are the I AM--the consciousness that creates, sustains, and dissolves all conditions by its own imagining. Thus, the deliverance is the radical shift of identity from the doer under constraint to the witness and creator who imagines anew.
