Inner Feast Of The Blessing

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the savoury meat as a symbol for a fixed assumption I am willing to feed my mind with until it becomes the living fact of my experience. In Neville's reading, the blessing is the moment my I AM affirms itself as already complete. Esau’s plea is my own longing for outward proof; Jacob’s act is the method by which I supply the inner consent to that proof. The father, the ancient 'Isaac' in me, is not an old man but my present awareness waking to its rightful claim. When I present the meal and say, Let my father arise and eat of his son’s venison, that thy soul may bless me, I am teaching my consciousness to shift from lack to completion. Do not seek approval from without; perform the inner rite, feel the reality of the blessing, and let the soul respond with gratitude. Reality is simply the I AM recognizing what I have privately assumed. The covenant loyalty I value is the loyalty of my own awareness to the truth of being.
