Fear, Mourning, and Return

Neville's Inner Vision

Samaria in Hosea is your inner state where fear crowns a calf of Bethaven. The calves are not mere statues but fixed beliefs you have worshipped—images that promise security and identity. When the people mourn and the priests rejoice in the idol, you sense a shift: the glory you sought is departing because your awareness has begun to turn away from form to the I AM. In Neville's language, the I AM is the living consciousness that creates the scene by what you hold to be real. To reclaim true worship, you must revise the belief that sustains the calf and cultivate the feeling that you, not the idol, are the source of all power. Sit with the sensation of fear, then declare quietly, 'I am the I AM,' and imagine the calf dissolving into light as your inner temple reclaims its throne. The departure of glory is not punishment but a signal that you return to awareness of your divine birthright, exile dissolving as you recognize you are always at home in consciousness.
