Inner Cleansing for Sacred Service

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus 30:17-21 speaks to the inner mechanic of devotion: the laver is the boundary where consciousness is cleansed before any service. The brass water is the felt state of awareness—not a ritual washing of the body but the revision of thought and motive. When you wash your hands and feet, you are choosing to move in life from the I AM rather than from fear, habit, or appetite. Between the tabernacle of your inner temple and the altar of your outward work, you pause, refresh, and reset, so your next gesture arises from clarity, not compulsion. If you rush forward unwashed, you risk acting in the old pattern and 'dying' to fresh risk; if you pause to rinse, you welcome a new creation of meaning. The statute forever means this is not a one-off; it is a daily discipline of aligning action with awareness. Practice this as a living belief: wash, revise, and step forward as the I AM in action.
