Seven Altars of Inner Dwelling

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the mind's theater, Balaam's demand for seven altars is not a ritual for a distant god, but a map of inner states you invoke. Each altar represents a pattern of consciousness you choose to set up before your awareness. The seven oxen and seven rams are the living images you present—feelings, decisions, habitual thoughts—that you offer to the I AM, not to appease a distant deity, but to awaken your own inner Presence. The moment you decide to build is the moment you discover you are the altar and the worshiper. True worship, in this light, is not external ceremony but the steadfast imagination of already having what you seek. If you feel lack, you are not being asked to change God, but your own state of consciousness. Revise the inner agreements: the I AM is already the giver, and you are the receiving station. Approach the seven altars as active faculties of awareness, each one awaiting your assumption, and let the inner act of acknowledgment transform you into the reality you name.
