12 Lectures On The Creative Power of Imagination From The World's Greatest Mystic Neville Goddard

"Imagination," is a collection of lectures given by Neville Goddard on the power of Imagination. If you don't believe by now that your Imagination is the one and only reality also known as the cause of the outer world then you are in luck because in this book you will find a great and detailed explanation on why it is so, and the method of operation. This Book contains six lectures Titled: HOW TO USE YOUR IMAGINATION Now, this whole record is technique. I want to show you today how to put your wonderful imagination right into the feeling of your wish fulfilled and let it remain there and fall asleep in that state. And I promise you, from my own experience, you will realize the state in which you sleep - if you could actually feel yourself right into the situation of your fulfilled desire and continue therein until you fall asleep. MENTAL DIETS Talking to oneself is a habit everyone indulges in. We could no more stop talking to ourselves than we could stop eating and drinking. All that we can do is control the nature and the direction of our inner conversations. Most of us are totally unaware of the fact that our inner conversations are the causes of the circumstance of our life. AWAKENED IMAGINATION It may startle you to identify the central figure of the Gospels as human imagination, but I am quite sure before the series is over, you will be convinced that this what the ancients intended that we should know, but man has misread the Gospels as history and biography and cosmology, and so completely has gone asleep as to the power within himself. IMAGINATION So, God in man is man's own wonderful human Imagination. It's difficult for man to make the adjustment, having been trained to turn on the outside to some god that he worships. IMAGINATION FULFILLS ITSELF I say imagination creates reality, and if this premise is true then imagination fulfills itself in what your life becomes. Although I have changed the words, what I am saying is not new. Scripture says it in this manner: "Whatsoever you desire, believe you have received it and you will."THE FOUNDATION STONE - IMAGINATION We believe that man can create anything he desires. We believe the Universe is infinite response and the one who causes it is the individual perceiver. Nothing is independent of your perception of it. We are so interwoven we are part of the machine, but as we awake we detach ourselves from this machine and make life as we wish it to be.

The world around us is different than we understand it to be in almost every situation. So why should we be so skeptical and incredulous? Life calls on us to believe not less, but more. The Secret of Imagining is the greatest of all problems. Supreme power, wisdom, and delight lie in the solution to this mystery.

The Creative Use of Imagination Neville Goddard - The purpose of these talks is to bring about a psychological change in you, the individual. Humanity, understood psychologically, is an infinite series of levels of awareness and you, individually, are what you are according to where you are in the series. Consciousness is the only reality, and where you are conscious of being psychologically, determines the circumstances of your life. The ancients knew this great truth, but our modern teachers have yet to discover it. There is only one substance in the world. Our scientists call it energy while scripture defines it as consciousness. We are told that the universe was caused by water, but if this is true, then it could not evolve into anything but water. But if the basic substance is energy (or consciousness), it can be made to manifest itself as iron, steel, and wood, to name but a few. Man, seeing a variety of forms, thinks of numberless substances, but what is seen is only a change in the arrangement of the same basic substance - consciousness.

The central premise of the book revolves around the idea that our predominant feelings and emotions shape our reality. Goddard argues that the key to manifesting our desires lies not only in visualizing them but also in feeling as though they have already been realized. Goddard emphasizes the importance of assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled, meaning that individuals should immerse themselves emotionally in the experience of having already achieved their desires. He asserts that this emotional state, when sustained consistently, impresses upon the subconscious mind and sets in motion the forces necessary to bring those desires into physical reality. Furthermore, Goddard discusses the concept of mental imagery and its power to create and shape our experiences. He suggests that individuals should use their imagination to create vivid mental scenes that evoke the desired feelings, thereby attracting corresponding circumstances and events. "Feeling Is The Secret" serves as a practical guide for harnessing the creative power of the mind to transform one's life. It encourages readers to cultivate a sense of inner conviction and emotional congruence with their desires, ultimately leading to the manifestation of their dreams and aspirations.

I have come to tell you it is now. You are now in the garden of Eden, and you think you are shut out or banished. You are in it, and the garden is your mind, but you need — like every gardener — you need pruning shears. For you have slept, as you are told in that second chapter. Having slept, weeds have appeared in the garden, and the weeds are revealing themselves by the conditions and the circumstances of life. For your garden is always projecting itself on the screen of space, and you can see by looking carefully at your world what you allow to grow in the garden of God." - The Pruning Shears of Revision "The world only bears witness of the use or misuse of imagination." - The Pruning Shears of Revision "The world is a magic circle of infinite possible mental transformations. For there are an infinite number of possible mental conversations. When man discovers the creative power of inner talking, he will realize his function and his mission in life. Then he can act to a purpose. Without such knowledge, he acts unconsciously. Everything is a manifestation of the mental conversations which go on in us without our being aware of them. But as civilized beings, we must become aware of them and act with a purpose. A man’s mental conversations attracts his life. As long as there is no change in his inner talking, the personal history of the man remains the same. To attempt to change the world before we change our inner talking is to struggle against the very nature of things. Man can go round and round in the same circle of disappointments and misfortunes, not seeing them as caused by his own negative inner talking, but as caused by others." - Mental Diets Enjoy your reading

No one has ever revealed to mankind the truth of how our minds (conscious and subconscious) work quite like Neville Goddard. Throughout his books and lectures Neville gave several examples of Imagining The Wish Fulfilled, Assuming The Wish Fulfilled, Feeling The Wish Fulfilled. Let me note here: What he meant by that is to BELIEVE that your wish is fulfilled. This should be abundantly clear to anyone who has understood Neville's teachings. This book is a compilation of these teachings. This book was compiled to capture these teachings in one book for the purpose of giving the reader a clearer and more concentrated look at what Neville was conveying about assuming the wish fulfilled. In his words... "Prayer is not so much what you ask for, as how you prepare for its reception. "Whatsoever things ye desire, when ye pray believe that you have received them, and ye shall have them." The only condition required is that you believe that your prayers are already realized. Your prayer must be answered if you assume the feeling that would be yours were you already in possession of your objective. The moment you accept the wish as an accomplished fact, the subconscious finds means for its realization. To pray successfully then, you must yield to the wish, that is, feel the wish fulfilled." - Neville Goddard From the back cover. The man who at will can assume whatever state he pleases has found the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. Assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled and continue feeling that it is fulfilled until that which you feel objectifies itself. Ignore the present state and assume the wish fulfilled. Claim it; it will respond. The law of assumption is the means by which the fulfillment of your desires may be realized. Your subconscious gives form to your desires only when you feel your wish fulfilled. Call your desires into being by imagining and feeling your wish fulfilled. Denying the evidence of the senses and appropriating the feeling of the wish fulfilled is the way to the realization of your desire. The assumption of the feeling of the wish fulfilled makes the future dream a present fact. Realization of your wish is accomplished by assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled. You cannot fail unless you fail to convince yourself of the reality of your wish. A change of belief is confirmed by a change of expression. Your assumption, to be effective, cannot be a single isolated act; it must be a maintained attitude of the wish fulfilled.
