Inner Offerings of Sinai

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of Leviticus 7:37-38 as the inner law of your altar. The list of offerings is not external ritual; it is a map of the movements of your own consciousness. The burnt offering represents the total surrender of every thought and desire to the I AM - an aligning of your inner atmosphere with pure awareness. The meat offering points to the daily nourishment you grant your imagination by matched character and behavior—the inner food that sustains your ideal self. The sin and trespass offerings reveal the moment you imagine you're separate from God, and the inner remedy is not external penance but a revision of your sense of separation until you accept oneness. The consecrations are the deliberate setting apart of certain thoughts and feelings as holy, a discipline of attention. The peace offerings invite a harmony where inner conflict yields to the felt presence of God within. Sinai is not a distant place but your present state of consciousness—the place where the I AM issues commands in the voice of imagination, shaping the oblations you offer. When the LORD commanded, it is your own inner decree: govern your inner world, and be governed by peace.
