From Dung to Nourishing Belief

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine Ezekiel's ritual as an inner weather report for your mind. The dung stands for the waste of thoughts you have tolerated as part of your self-image. To eat it is to acknowledge those movements without denial, but the real work is what you do with it in imagination. By applying the I AM—your persistent awareness—you transmute the defilement into nourishment. The barley cakes symbolize a revised assumption: you are already whole, capable, and intact, even as the old thoughts are metabolized within your consciousness. The act is witnessed by your inner God, the I AM, who sees every movement of mind and declares it transformable. As you revise, you shift from being constrained by past judgments to choosing a new inner climate, thereby altering the conditions your life will express. The exile you sense becomes a return to a higher order of self, born in awareness and sustained by imagining the new truth until it feels real.
