Inner Goat Offering

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the quiet of your own awareness, Numbers 28:15 speaks not of ritual distance but of your inner weather. The goat is a symbol of a part of self you bring to the altar of I AM, a fragment that bears guilt, fault, or remorse. You place it beside the flame of continual offering—the daily state of consciousness you maintain in the present. The drink offering, the refreshing perceptual current, symbolizes a renewed perception poured over the old error. In Neville’s language, the only reality is the I AM that feels, imagines, and endows with meaning. By intentionally presenting the 'goat' of limitation to God within as a conscious offering, you do not punish the self but release it into the fire of awareness so that forgiveness may settle and reinstate purity of state. The action is not external compliance but an inner revision: you imagine the self as already forgiven, already clean, already in harmony with the divine flame. When this inner offering is made, your entire perception shifts; you awaken to live from revised feeling and a renewed sense of being.
