Inner Altar of Judgment and Worship

Neville's Inner Vision

In the scene I hear the I AM addressing the old self as a mere belief. The king of Ai, hanged on a tree until eventide, is the ego I once worshiped—an identity I must dissolve in consciousness. When the sun sets and the body is carried away, I bury that memory in the earth of my mind and raise a heap of stones as a fixed sign that I have chosen to remember differently. Joshua’s altar on Mount Ebal represents a restart within: a vow to worship the LORD God of Israel through the inner law, not by force or iron tools. The altar of whole stones, unlifted by iron, signals alignment with pure consciousness and the immutable Principle that governs my life. The burnt offerings and peace offerings symbolize gratitude and harmony—an inner worship that sanctifies my days. When I recognize myself as the I AM, the outer world follows that inner order, for imagination is the hands, and I am the mind that commands reality.
