Purity as Consciousness: Leviticus 18:20-23

Neville's Inner Vision

Take the verse as a map of inner states: the outward prohibitions are not judgments on others but reminders that the self’s imagined acts betray a misalignment with your true I AM. When you entertain thoughts of another’s wife, or any impulse that seems to defile your sanctum, you are not dealing with persons but with a state of consciousness you have allowed to creep into your mind. Molech's fire is the fear you feed toward a future you cannot control; to sacrifice to it is to abandon your real identity as I AM. To profane the name of God is to forget that God is within, the ever-present awareness that you are, here and now. The lines about lying with mankind and beasts point to inner unions that do not honor the natural harmony of being—imagined identities, baser appetites, or coercive selves that pretend to be you. The law is a gentle summons to keep your inner house pure, to tend the flame of awareness, and to remember that you are the creator of your world by the state you inhabit. Choose the higher self, and the external codes align in time with your renewed consciousness.
