Moses at Horeb: Inner Mountain

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of Moses not as a man far away in antiquity, but as a state of consciousness within you. The flock he tends is the clamor of thoughts and duties; the desert is the seeming emptiness of lack; Horeb, the backside of the desert, is the quiet threshold of awareness where God dwells as the I AM. When you stand on this inner mountain, you realize you are not going toward a distant place, but turning attention inward, where the divine spark becomes the felt presence of 'I AM.' The act of tending the flock is your discipline, your steady focus and care you give to your inner world. The mountain of God is the realization that you are the agent and witness of God-in-form—consciousness in action. This chapter invites you to vocation not as external job, but as the inward act of living from the I AM, the witness who sees through imagination. Your life and your witnessing grow from that inner alignment.
