Idols Of Appetite Within

Neville's Inner Vision

The scene in Numbers 25:2 is not about distant idolaters; it mirrors a present state of consciousness within you. The call to the sacrifices of their gods represents the moment your awareness leans toward imagined powers—images of security, pleasure, or approval—that promise wholeness. The eating and bowing are internal movements: you feed on appearances and kneel before idols your mind has trained itself to worship. Neville’s psychology invites you to see that the real deity is not found in ritual objects but in your own I AM—the steady, unconditioned awareness that underlies all experience. When you identify with this awareness, the need to appease or bow to external powers dissolves; you no longer serve the phantom gods of need or fear. True worship is the internal acknowledgment of the I AM, the presence that remains constant even as images rise and fall. As you align with that awareness, outward sacrifices lose their grip and your life reflects that inner peace.
