Inner Purity Of The Priest

Neville's Inner Vision

Ezekiel's priests are not merely men in robes but states of consciousness that refuse to feed on decay. Dead of itself and torn symbolize thoughts and memories that have lost life—habit, fear, or past hurts—that would nourish a worn-out mind. To dwell on such images is to consume decay and keep the psyche in bondage. Neville would say: the I AM is the living sanctuary, and your reality springs from your inner state. Feeding on what is dead is feeding a belief that no longer serves the whole; it dulls the sense of living wholeness. The prohibition becomes a decree of inner integrity: you choose to nourish yourself with living ideas—faith, possibility, clarity—while discarding the fragments that no longer sustain. When you assume the posture of the priest within—awareness as the sole reality—you release attachment to lack or danger and allow life to move through you with ease. This is not rule-keeping but a practice of imagination: revise the sense of feed to align with wholeness, and watch your experience align with that reality.
