Inward Ruin, Inward Worship

Neville's Inner Vision

You are not merely observing destruction; you are discovering your own inner Samaria. The heap of field and the vineyard stand in for your shifting states of consciousness—outward structures crumble as the inner beliefs and attachments are exposed. The pouring of stones and the revealing of foundations symbolize the moment when your awareness uncovers the true core of your identity: I AM. The beating of graven images and the burning of hired idols point to releasing false worship—your reliance on external measures of success, security, or image. As you awaken, the idols of status and possession dissolve, and desolation becomes a doorway to re-foundation. In this light, exile and return refer to the movement of consciousness between old patterns and the renewed sense of self that remains intact when you anchor in the I AM and claim your true nature. The outer judgment mirrors inner judgment: you reject what you have mistaken for life and affirm the living presence within—your new temple rises where idols were once housed.
