Inner Fasting and the I AM

Neville's Inner Vision

Your state of consciousness shapes your reality. When you observe a fast in the fifth or seventh month, Zechariah asks you to interrogate whether that choice is anchored in the I AM within or in the memory of custom. The seventy years are not years of time but loops of thought; until you awaken to the I AM as your immortal, all fasting remains a conditioned habit. The verse says did you fast unto me, even to me? The answer must be whispered in your own heart: yes, I fast unto the I AM, not to a tradition. To do this now, close your eyes and assume the feeling that you are already embraced by the I AM. See your inner temple fill with quiet power; let the motive shift from proving to others to satisfying the inward I AM. When you imagine yourself intact in God, you are not renouncing anything but enshrining your own true nature. The external calendar becomes meaningless once your inner calendar reads I AM.
