Blood-Feeding Appetite Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Within every field of life, the brood described in Job 39:30 stands as a symbol of a state of consciousness that lives by feeding on the pain and fear of others. The 'blood-sucking' young are not creatures out there; they are inner impulses—habits of thought that thrive on separation and the drama of death and lack. When I identify with that state, life appears as a scene of cruelty in which vitality must steal from wounds. However, the I AM—my permanent awareness—does not hunger for harm. I can revise by assuming a new picture: I AM the life-source; the world is a reflection of that fullness. I feel it real by dwelling in the conviction that nothing happens to me outside my consciousness. In that shift, the appetite loses its power, the slain no longer feed a private predator, and the inner landscape becomes a holy field where every life nourishes every other. The blood-mist clears, and purity, not predation, becomes the law of my being.
