Inner Mourning and Return

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville Goddard vantage, Isaiah’s outward mourning is an image of your inner state. The ascent to Bajith and Dibon represents the mind clinging to lofty opinions and external rituals; the weeping signals the ego’s lament over its beloved idols. When Moab howls for Nebo and Medeba, recognize the howl as the mind protesting the collapse of former identities. The line about bald heads and cut beards is not punishment but a symbolic stripping of external marks by which you defined yourself—status, role, belief. This is not a sentence of doom but an invitation to a deeper inner sovereignty. The exile described becomes a doorway to realignment: dis-identify with outward signs and rest in the I AM, the unchanging awareness. The promise hidden in this scene is that, through inner revision and felt certainty, you move from dependent images to a renewed sense of self, rooted in consciousness itself rather than in appearances.
