The Inner Babylon Revealed
Revelation 17:5-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Revelation 17 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Revelation 17:5–6 presents a symbolic 'Mystery Babylon' and a woman intoxicated by the blood of saints, signaling a consciousness that mistakes outer conflict for reality.
Neville's Inner Vision
On this page, the 'woman' is a state of consciousness, not a person. Babylon the Great is the dream of separation that the mind clings to when it seeks power through fear, control, and external images. The name on her forehead marks the belief that this dream has a secret authority, a 'Mystery' that keeps you bound to appearances. The drunken blood of the saints and martyrs represents your own worn stories of conflict—every time you identify with the persecution narrative, you fuel the illusion. Neville would say: awaken inside the I AM; refuse to participate in the drama as if it had power over you. See that you are the awareness in which both the drama and its relief arise and pass. As you dwell in this I AM, the craving for idols dissolves; you feel true worship as the alignment of your feeling with the eternal self. The vision invites you to rewrite the script, not by denying pain, but by claiming the inner reality that is unmoved by it.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, affirm 'I am the I AM,' and revise any fear-laden belief by declaring: 'There is no power but God within me.' Visualize the word MYSTERY dissolving into light as you rest in your one, eternal self.
