Shepherds of Consciousness

Jeremiah 25:34-36 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 25 in context

Scripture Focus

34Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel.
35And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape.
36A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the LORD hath spoiled their pasture.
Jeremiah 25:34-36

Biblical Context

The passage describes the lament of the shepherds and the dispersion of the flock, signaling judgment as their pasture is spoiled and escape is impossible.

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah's cry is not mere history but a vivid map of your inner weather. The shepherds are the governing beliefs and habits that preside over the flock of your thoughts; the pasture is your inward atmosphere, your sense of nourishment. When the days of slaughter and dispersion arrive, those old states fall away, like a vessel shattered by the light of a new awareness. The cries announce the clearing of the field, revealing that you have identified with conditions rather than with the I AM. The Lord spoiling their pasture points to the release from limited perception toward the living consciousness that creates. You can revise this now: you are the imaginer, the I AM who births your world. See the pasture revived by your awareness; sense the abundance you are by nature; understand that no escape is needed, for true life begins within consciousness and expresses outwardly as your realized state.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and assume the state of I AM presiding over your inner field. Revise the scene: the pasture is lush, the flock is calm, and the shepherds are replaced by unwavering awareness. Dwell in this feeling for 5–10 minutes as your present reality.
