Inner Purity Through Red Heifer
Numbers 19:2-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Numbers 19 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Numbers 19:2-6 details a ritual for purity: a blemish-free red heifer is slain, its blood sprinkled before the tabernacle seven times, and then burned with its ashes. The act embodies separation from impurity and consecration to holiness.
Neville's Inner Vision
In Neville's register, the red heifer is not a barnyard animal but a symbol of your inner state. The requirement of 'without spot' and 'never came yoke' becomes the declaration that your awareness, I AM, must stand unblemished by past identifications and burdens. The 'camp' outside the camp marks the action of stepping out of habitual self-consciousness into the field of awareness where choices are made. The priest's blood sprinkled seven times before the tabernacle is the discipline of repeatedly applying attention to the center of your being—the tabernacle of consciousness—until every trace of guilt is washed away by the certainty of identity with I AM. The burning of the heifer with its skin, flesh, blood, and dung is the transformation of old mental material into ash by the fire of awareness; cedar, hyssop, and scarlet cast into the fire symbolize the cleansing elements of truth—humility, cleansing, and renewed vision. This ritual invites you to accept a present state: you are pure, free of the yoke, and aligned with the divine I AM within.
Practice This Now
Assume you are the I AM, unblemished and free. In your imagination, stand before the tabernacle of consciousness, apply the sevenfold awareness of purification, and let the old self burn away.
