Inner King Emerges From Judgment

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of Zedekiah as the king within you—the I AM waking in consciousness. The Babylonians who carry him away are the laws of circumstance that you have allowed to govern your inner realm. When the king's sons are slain before his eyes, you witness the losses that attend a mind identified with fear and separation; the princes of Judah represent your inner faculties—will, imagination, memory, and discernment—suffering or dying under a belief that you are merely a fragment of a world power outside. Then comes the crushing act of blindness: the eyes put out. This is not a history but a moment when awareness ceases to see its own reality, when the sense of self is bound and led toward a distant 'Babylon'—a place of confinement in fear and time. Yet in Neville fashion, the page does not decree final ruin; it reveals the opportunity to awaken from the dream by realizing that the I AM remains untouched, sovereign, and watching. The outer spectacle exposes the inner belief that you are separate from your divine self; you are asked to revise the scene from exile to the reign of conscious I AM.
