Tower of Inner Awareness

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine Abimelech not as an external conqueror but as a stubborn belief of power within your own mind. Thebez’s tower is the fortress of a false self, a mental organism convinced that control equals life. When Abimelech attacks the tower, you feel the urge to destroy the fortress of fear by force. The woman who drops the millstone represents a sudden, lucid principle of truth breaking through that egoic structure—an inner revision that exposes the fragility of forced dominion. The skull-breaking blow signifies the death of the old king in you—the tyrant of coercion and dependency—by a simple act of inner recognition. In Neville’s terms, the I AM, your core consciousness, awakens as you recognize you are the creator of every event in your life. The outer siege gives way to inner authority, not by fighting others, but by revising your sense of self from bondage to liberation. The true kingdom emerges when your awareness claims the crown and lets go of force.
