Indignation as Inner Fire

Neville's Inner Vision

From the depth of Ezekiel's passage I hear the I AM speaking through the prophet: the indignation poured out, the fire of wrath, the recompense on their heads—these are not foreign judgments but the workings of your consciousness when it refuses to yield to a higher state. In Neville's reading, the 'they' are your own states of mind—habitual fears, resentments, and judgments—that you have insisted upon as reality. The 'indignation' is the psychic heat that accompanies the moment you decide, 'This is the way things must be.' The 'fire' consumes old patterns, not the body; the 'recompense' returns to you as circumstance that matches the belief you entertained. When you see that God is the I AM within, you recognize you were never at the mercy of an external judgment but the author of your inner weather. To awaken, you must withdraw your allegiance to the old image and re-ennoble your quiet awareness that knows itself as the cause of all you call real.
