Water in the Inner Desert

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, the desert narrative is a drama of consciousness, not a map of geography. Zin becomes the dry state of mind where belief dries up when you forget your I AM. Miriam’s death is the release of an old story about lack, a cleansing that makes room for the new impression of your true self. The lack of water is a projection of inner drought, a collective thought-formation in your own mind. Moses and Aaron symbolize the inner faculties that speak the truth of your being to the situation—the I AM as awareness that carries your demand to the Source. In this light, the crisis is a call to revision: you are not seeking water outside, you are refreshing your sense of self until you feel the water of life within. When you assume the I AM's reality—that you are fully supplied, now—the illusion of drought dissolves and you walk away from Kadesh knowing abundance is your natural state.
