Inner Redemption of the Firstborn

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner theater, the 'firstborn' of your natural self—your spontaneous claims and unredeemed aspects—stand before the altar. They are redeemed not by ritual alone but by a conscious price paid to the sacred I AM, the sanctuary of awareness. The 'five shekels' symbolize a disciplined, complete offering of attention, belief, feeling, imagination, and will to the inner priesthood—the Aaron within you who receives and converts your inner movement into realized state. When you acknowledge that your true reality is the I AM and make the intentional payment through consistent inner practice, the former firstborn is absorbed into the sacred service, and your life begins to express the higher order you are. The act is not external but mental: a fixed price laid upon the self, accepted by the inner priesthood, transforming separation into harmonious function and leading you from rote identity into living communion.
