The Inner Wave Offering

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the command as a map of your inner life. The 'own hands' bringing the offerings are your present awareness, choosing what you feed with fire—your thoughts, dreams, and desires. The fat burned on the altar represents the clinging, density, or fear you willingly release through focused attention. The breast waved before the Lord is the fresh energy you lift into consciousness—your decision to sustain a new state by imagining it already real. Aaron and his sons taking the breast symbolizes the part of you that receives and nourishes this new self, while the priest burning the fat shows the discipline of letting go even as you honor the form you build. This is not external ritual but the inner movement of imagination aligning with truth. The wave is your commitment, a rhythm by which you announce, to yourself, the reality you intend to live. Practice: in a moment of quiet, assume you have already brought your desired state into awareness; feel the wave of that state touch your chest and sustain it with steady, grateful attention.
