Baldness and Cleanliness Within
Leviticus 13:40-41 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Leviticus 13 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Leviticus 13:40-41 says that baldness—whether on the crown or the forehead—is not a defilement; the person remains clean. The outer sign does not determine inner purity.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner court of your consciousness, the hair loss described in Leviticus 13:40-41 becomes a symbolic cue for the ego’s story about lack. Yet the text insists the bearer is clean, an assertion you can claim as your own. The I AM—the true you—transcends physical appearance and remains whole regardless of any outward sign. If you have identified with a lack or a blemish, know that such appearances cannot alter the essential reality of your being. Your sense of self is not the body’s condition but the awareness that observes it. When you identify with the state of cleanliness that the verse affirms, you align with a perpetual freedom: the inner identity remains intact while forms change. The law of your consciousness is simple—believe you are clean and complete, and the outer world will reflect that inner truth. Let the verse be an invitation to rest in the certainty of your I AM, beyond appearances and time.
Practice This Now
Assume the state of being clean right now: place a hand on your chest and quietly affirm, 'I am clean and whole in the I AM.' Feel that truth as real for five minutes, letting any old sign dissolve in the light of your awareness.
