Neville's Inner Vision

Numbers 11:7-8 describes manna as coriander seed and the color of bdellium, gathered, ground, baked, and tasted as fresh oil. In Neville's lens, this is a vivid portrait of your inner supply: the manna is the very I AM you awaken to as consciousness. The coriander seed represents precise, nourishing thoughts you cultivate; the bdellium color hints at a refined atmosphere you permit within. The act of gathering, grinding, and baking translates the daily discipline of turning spiritual food into usable energy through imagination and intention. When you taste it as oil, you experience vitality and clarity—the body of your world responding to the quality of your inner state. The text implies that provision is everyday and available to the state of awareness you inhabit now. Therefore, the invitation is to shift from seeking externally to asserting, in imagination, that you are the source and you already possess the nourishment you need. Your outer life will reflect the inner feast you have chosen through consciousness, belief, and feeling.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are already supplied for the day. See manna in your hand, grind it with your thoughts, bake it into your activities, and taste the oil of vitality as your lived reality.
