Waving the Inner Lamb

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, the outer ritual mirrors an inner act. The 'lamb without blemish' is not a creature but a state of consciousness—the I AM wholly intact, untouched by fear, doubt, or guilt. The 'first year' reminds us that freshness of awareness is required; we are to present a clean, newborn result of our true nature. The wave of the sheaf marks a rising moment in which consciousness is drawn forth from the subconscious. When you stand in the awareness of God as I AM and refuse to bend to outward conditions, you are offering yourself; you are burning away the old story by the very act of assumption. The offering to the LORD is the alignment of your inner reality with the truth you desire. In this light, the ritual becomes a practice of belief revision: declare that your present nature is already whole, pure, and sufficient, and dwell in that certainty until sensation and circumstance follow. The visible world becomes a reflection of an unseen, constant state. As you hold this in mind, you shift from hoping for change to embodying it.
