Cleanliness Beyond Flesh

Neville's Inner Vision

Read as Neville would, the question reveals the condition of consciousness rather than a moral verdict. Man is not proven clean by external deeds; cleanliness and righteousness exist as inner alignments you imagine into being. What is man? becomes a call to inquire within: who am I as the I AM, the universal aware presence that animates this body. Born of a woman points to the outer birth the story you tell about yourself in time and space. Yet the divine standard, the inner purity, is always present as your essential state, waiting to be realized through assumption. When you assume that you are clean, when you refuse to identify with the false self of limitation, you awaken to a world that mirrors your inner sense of self. Imagination creates reality; the moment you inhabit the feeling of righteousness, you begin to act from a different center. The separation Job hints at dissolves as your inner man stands present, and the outer life begins to reflect that inner order.
