Inner Diets of Awareness
Leviticus 11:20-23 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Leviticus 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verses separate clean from unclean: only certain flying insects with legs above their feet—locust, bald locust, beetle, and grasshopper—may be eaten, while all other four-footed flying creatures are an abomination.
Neville's Inner Vision
What you call 'fowls that creep' and their abominations are not meant as mere dietary rules but inner states of consciousness. In the inner scripture of your life, 'abomination' marks a thought-form you persist in feeding that keeps you tethered to fear, lack, or separation. The instruction about insects that leap—having legs above their feet—becomes a symbol of thoughts that rise above the soil of sense-based doubt. These leap-like thoughts are permitted because they imply upward movement your imagination can digest and use to shape reality. The boundary between clean and unclean mirrors the boundary you set in your mind: you decide which thoughts are edible for your awareness and which to discard. By affirming I AM as the ruler of your inner life, you establish your diet and your spiritual separation from lower, creeping states. When you dwell in the one Presence, your mind no longer hungers for every impulse; you feed on thoughts that lift and refine your consciousness, allowing the higher leap to become natural.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume the I AM state now, and revise any anxious thought by declaring, 'This thought is not mine,' then feel awareness rise as you feed your mind with thoughts that leap upward.
