Inner Sabbath Sanctuary Reverence

Neville's Inner Vision

Leviticus speaks to your inner life. The sabbath is a state of rest of the I AM within; the sanctuary is the field of perception where you reverence the divine presence. When you acknowledge 'I AM,' you acknowledge that the LORD is your own consciousness—that you have never left the divine self. The command to keep sabbaths becomes a practice of quieting the mind’s busyness and listening for the stillness that is the LORD’s presence. Reverence of the sanctuary means treating your inner life as sacred: guard your attention, and hold your feeling as if God dwells there. The phrase 'I AM the LORD' asserts that this awareness is not an external person but your own central being. In that recognition, you align with the Truth that your imagination is the instrument by which reality is formed. By assuming the state of rest and sacred space, you revise your sense of time and space, and your world hardens from the inside out. Therefore, keep your sabbath in consciousness, and your sanctuary will manifest in outward form.
