Inner Offering, Flawless State

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine that the altar is a mirror of your living consciousness, and the blemishes spoken of are blotches on belief rather than on beasts. In Neville’s sense, the law does not govern out there; it reveals the state of your inner I AM. When you hear that a sacrifice must be perfect, you are being shown that your entire life responds to the quality of your assumed self-image. If you cling to fear, limitation, or guilt, you offer a “blemished” self and experience resistance or delay. But the truth is that your true offering is your present awareness when it is pure, unwavering, and fully conscious of its unity with God. The one who is willing to accept nothing less than perfection is not seeking perfection in time but recognizing that time is an artificial drift of thought; it is the inside that creates the outside. Therefore, make your assumption of perfect being now. Practice the felt reality that you are the unblemished I AM, and let that realization license every act, word, and choice as if already true.
