The Holy One by Neville Goddard (12-12-1963)

Neville Goddard, 1963 lectures the Holy One December 12, 1963. Tonight's subject is the Holy One. We are told in the Book of Isaiah, the 43rd chapter, I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior. I. I am the Lord, and beside me there is no Savior. Read it carefully. Only one savior, one Savior. I am the Lord, I am the Lord, and there is no other Savior. One has to dwell upon it and really dwell upon it to extract from it its message. I think that's where we miss a lot of this, this understanding of what Neville is saying. Not only is he saying it in a nice, cool, calm, slow manner for us to understand and repetitively for us to understand, but it's we miss. I know I have. I'm just saying we generally. I don't say you. Excuse me for that blanket judgment. It's not all of us. Let me qualify it differently. I think it can be missed when we do not, as individuals dwell upon phrases like he's describing right here. When you dwell upon it and you sit with it, sitting with it means just to give it some space to soak in. And a lot of Neville's work needs that contemplative, relaxative, pensive moment. Needs a little bit of your time. One cannot discover the true character of God by investigating or discussing him. One must let him save. Then one knows he's a savior in every sense of the word. So one must let him save. And only then does one really know the character of God. You can discuss them, investigate them from now till the ends of time, but you will never really know God. So tonight we're discussing this Holy One. And this holy one is I am. God has clothed himself with human, with humanity, completely clothed himself with. Clothed himself with man. He's put man on as you would an outer garment. And so with the garment on, say I am. That's God. The only God. There is no other God. Is he really God? Well, he tells that he is a savior. I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, Thy Savior. I. I am the Lord and beside me there is no Savior. Is this really true? Well, then I should really test it. If when I stand here and I say I am before I say I am this, that and the other, is that really God? Is he really a savior? Well then test him. See if he really can save me from my present restriction in this world. Just test him. Well, I've done it unnumbered times. I've been trying since I discovered it, to share it with these Aspects of my own being, for they're only my being pushed out. There's nothing but God in the world. We think the Bible is something that records the past. It's contemporary. We think that the Israelites were saved from Egypt by some miraculous act of God, unnumbered years ago, thousands of years ago, and we don't know it's taking place now. We think the pharaohs died thousands of years ago, and we don't know that they are in our present. That any tyrant in this world who can enslave you, who can restrict you, he is a pharaoh, and he will not let my people go. So without my consent, saying that, you know, it's the same thing as saying Caesar in Caesar's world. We say that. Now we realize that that really represents government or whatever the demands of Caesar may be. Let's say it's your taxes you pay at the end of the year, like we just had in April here. Or we have the state income tax or state tax or city tax on goods you buy. This is all Caesar. Your phone bill, your electric bill, your home payment, your rent. All this is Caesar. Same thing. When you're saying Pharaoh, you're saying anything that restricts you or acts as a tyrant. We think the pharaohs died thousands of years ago, and we don't know they are in our present. That any tyrant in this world who can enslave you, who can restrict you, he is a pharaoh and he will not let my people go. So without my consent, without any desire on my part, I was picked up like millions of others when the world thought it needed manpower and put into the army. Then, at that very moment, instead of making, say, 10,000 to $12,000 a year, I was told from now on, until they would let me go, I will make $50 a month, not a week. They'll give me my clothes. I had clothes. They'll give me my food. Well, I had food, much better food. They'll give me shelter. Well, I had shelter. I had a home. I had everything I wanted. No, they didn't listen to that. So they put me into a compound. They called it camp. And here in this area, reduced from $12,000 a year income to $50 a month without my consent. And I had a lease that ran for quite a while, with a wife and child to support and all these things. They didn't consider that who is Pharaoh in this world. But then I believed in Scripture. Remember, this is 1943. He was drafted into the U.S. army. But then he's discussing that of 12 years. I'm sorry. Of 20 years previous. Because now we're on December 12, 1963. So he's talking about 20 years previous. About the same time of year. I believe we'll find out if he. If he mentions the date. I don't see a date coming, but. Here we go. But then I believed in scripture. I believe that with God all things are possible. And I firmly believed that God is I Am. There is no other God. I will not in eternity know another God. But the God that I know is a present tense first person experience. I am the Lord thy God, first person present. And so I firmly believed him and I trusted him. So he clothed himself in me and made me alive. That's how I became alive. And now I will trust him implicitly. His name is I Am. He has no other name. There are other names, but the real name is I Am. Am. And so I will now trust him and test him. And so while in Egypt. Egypt means Camp Polk, Louisiana. So that's Egypt. I am in a compound. Can't get out of it. A pass to get me out of the gate and then to get back. Show the pass again and there you are, completely restricted. I played that game too, Neville. I was in for four years. Oh, boy. Yes. Completely restricted. My Pharaoh, whose heart was hardened. Excuse me. My Pharaoh, whose heart was hardened when I was applied. When I applied for an exit from this land called Egypt. It was denied. Same story as told us in the Old Testament. So Pharaoh said no to the children of Israel. You cannot go. I will not let you depart from Egypt. And so all the pleas in the world would not soften his heart. He said no to my application. So while this night, believing in the scripture that the only name of God is I Am. I assumed that I am the man I wanted to be. I assumed that I am where I would be were my assumption realized. And there I slept. In the wee hours of the morning, four in the morning. Before my face came a sheet that resembled the sheet that I had signed and applied for my honorable discharge. And here it came back disapproved and signed by a colonel. Didn't sign it Pharaoh. But it was Pharaoh. He had the power to hold me there forever. That was the power invested in him by the laws of the land. That was Pharaoh. But in spite of Pharaoh denial of my application for escape from Egypt. I believed in God. And God's name is I am. I simply assumed that I am the man that I want to be. A man that is now a civilian. A man that is Honorably discharged a man living in the outer world, not in this compound, that is Egypt. And that night this paper came before my eyes and a hand up to the elbow. The Bible uses the spirit of God and symbolized it as a finger, as told us in the book of Judges. That is the finger of the Lord. It tells us in the book of Daniel, the hand appeared and wrote. The hand appeared and wrote. It tells in Isaiah of the arm of God. So the finger, the hand and the arm, they are symbols of the activity of God when one believes in his name, which is I am. So that night before my face came this sheet. And then the arm came out right to the elbow. It held a pen and it scratched out disapproved. And it boldly wrote in above it approved. Then I heard the voice of God. It's my own voice in the depth of my soul. And the voice said, that which I have done, I have done. Do nothing. I heard that recently. I told you in a previous video I was doing my SATs, I was doing my repeat scene, I was introducing my wife to these two gentlemen. And it came like a bell in my head. It pretty much was those exact words, that which I have done, I have done. Do nothing. Mine said, it is done. Do nothing. That's what mine said. And it was like I was so electrified, I couldn't try and fall asleep anymore. I had to get up and read. It was so electrifying. So who can stay the hand of God? And so nine days later, the same Pharaoh who disapproved my application for my exit from Egypt wrote in the word approved and I was honorably discharged nine days later. Some people might misquote this story and say that Neville did this every night for nine days. He did it one night, imagined himself with his wife and child. From what I understand from all the different tellings of this story, did all of this different imaginings in that one night at home. His wife's in the next bed. He can touch her, I think he can walk around, feel the furniture, know where his daughter is, et cetera. Then that morning of that night, he did that is when that came through approved. On the sheet in front of his face, in front of his mind's eye. And then hearing the voice, it is done. Do nothing. So I think it was one time for Neville, for that self persuasion. And if it's different, write it in the comments. We're okay if we're wrong. So we think this means a history that took place 3,000 years ago, question mark. It's taking place. If you believe in the name of God, there is only God. He actually clothed himself in humanity. Clothed himself, and we the outward garment. This is the outward garment that he wears. So I ask you a question. You say I am before you say. You say I am before you say I am. That's God. You may not believe it. You're called upon to believe it. The children of Israel found it very difficult to believe in the present tense. They addressed him as thou art. That's not his name at all. They speak of God. He is. That's not his name. His name is I am. But man can't believe that's the name of God. It's the only name of God that works in this world. You can pray forever to some external God and another being. It is not going to work. Go and tell them when they ask you my name, I am has sent you. Tell them. Tell to them I am who I am. I am what I am. I am that which I am. Just say I am. Exodus 3:14. But what man will believe that this works? Well, I'm speaking from experience. And the only God in this world that never, I would say I would ever outgrow. I could never outgrow this God. Not in eternity. But I could never lose the God that I know through a present tense experience. How could I ever outgrow that God that produced my escape from Egypt? I know exactly how it works. I know exactly what I did. I fell asleep. Who fell asleep? I did. That's his name. It's one. The Holy One. So I really fell asleep. In what manner did you fall asleep? I fell asleep as though I were a free being out of Egypt, living in New York City as a civilian and honorably discharged so that no one could ever question my exit from that area. My papers were in order, and the one who opposed it nine days later, had to sanction my departure from Egypt. And we think Egypt is the northeast shoulder of Africa. Egypt is here. Egypt is wherever you are, where you are confined and you can't escape. And the only exit from it is the name of God. If you don't know the name of God and do not wisely apply the name of God, you'll never get out of Egypt. And so Egypt is the world of restriction. And the Holy One's only name is I am. Now, here's a true story. You might have read it. It came out in one magazine, oh, maybe a year ago. A man is shaving and his little girl, six years old, comes in and watches the father shave Suddenly, out of the blue, she said to him, daddy, where does God really live? And he, shaving, said, in the well. In the well. And she said to him, oh, Daddy, with this disgust in her voice, because the reply, the response was so silly, so stupid. So at breakfast that morning, his wife said to him, say, what have you been telling Debbie about God living in a well? And he said, blank space. Did I say that to Debbie? That God lives in a well? It came so absentmindedly he didn't know. He said that suddenly in his mind rushed a picture that took place in his boyhood when he was 5 years old, 30 odd years ago in Poland, where he was born. Then the story came. Five years old and here a troop of traveling gypsies. And they always travel. They have no place where they can remain forever. And they stopped in his father's courtyard for a drink of water. This giant of a gypsy, fantastically marvelous man, with a short cropped beard that was brilliant and fiery, fiery red. And he drew from that well a bucket of water with his feet wide apart. He took it as easily as you would a cup of tea and held it to his mouth and drank from that wonderful pail of cold water. And it dribbled down his red beard. And this little boy, five years old, was intrigued. When he was finished with his water, he placed the pail down. He bent over that well and held the side of the well and peered into the very depths of it. The little boy was so curious, he tried to climb up the side of the well to see what this giant of a gypsy was looking at. Then the gypsy saw the little boy and with a big smile on his face, he scooped him up in his arms and asked him, do you know who lives in there? The little boy nodded his head, no, he didn't. He said, God lives there. Then he picked him up in his arms and pushed him over that well and said, look. The little boy said, why, it's me. Then the gypsy said, ah, now you know where God lives. That is a wonderful story. That's God. There is no other God. It does not yet appear what we shall be, but we know when he appears, we shall be like him. First John 3:2. There is no other God. God has clothed himself in humanity, actually clothed himself with all of us. And he's wearing these garments. He is in the depth of our souls, the only God. And his only name by which he responds is I am. Remember that sentence. Very powerful. The only name to which he responds, excuse me, by which he responds, his only name by which he responds is, I am. You can call him Lord, you can call him God, you can call him Jesus, you can call him anything in the world. But when you call these names, it's another when I say Jesus. And the whole vast world of Christendom crosses themselves and bends their knees and they bow and they think of another. So I speak of the Lord, I speak of God, I speak of Jehovah, I speak of any name. But when I say I am its first person singular, go and tell them my name is I am. Well, if I say to them, I met the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob, and they say unto me, what is his name? What then shall I say? Just say I am the only name in the world that really works. And I am speaking from experience. My Pharaoh said, no, he will not get out from this compound. He will not leave Egypt. And so that was Pharaoh's decision. Then I remembered the name of God of which all things are possible. And I assumed that I am what I wanted to be. And that was 2,000 miles away. I assumed I was not only 2,000 miles away, but I was there so I wouldn't have to run anymore. I was there, honorably discharged. And so nine days later, that Pharaoh's heart melted. And then he wrote, approved, when before he wrote, disapproved. But the hand of God appeared before my face. We think this is all symbolism, and it is. But, oh, what beautiful imagery. The finger of the Lord appeared, as told us in Judges 6. And then the hand of the God appeared in Daniel, and this hand appeared in Isaiah. When the hand appears, it's God in action. It is God. I told you about maybe 2 handfuls of lectures ago. I was minding my own business in some dream, and all of a sudden an electric fire runs through my entire body. I felt it was his finger literally just touching me. It ran right up from the base of my spine all the way through my head. It just felt like an electric. Now, I've been shocked before by some heavy voltage. Very lucky. I can't tell you how lucky I have been in many close calls. But this close call, I felt the energy of what electricity is. It was a 2083 phase. I caught some of it. I know what that feels like. You don't want to know what that feels like. Don't even be curious. But getting aside from that story, I know what electricity feels like. Let's just say that. And as a little kid putting a staple, I think, into an electric socket and getting that understanding of what electricity is too. I remember that one very specifically back to this finger, which felt like a finger touching me. It just. The only way I can describe it after the next day, etc. Because this bolt ran right through me. And the only way I could describe it was in hindsight to think it was his finger just simply touching me. That's about the best way to describe it. I've never had those words or images in my mind before, but that's what it felt like. I didn't see a hand. Now there's an electric feeling you might feel. And there's the one he describes about the liquid gold, etc. And runs up like the rod, the serpent. I would say that action did go from my base up through. So that's why in hindsight, again, write these things down, communicate them, because you don't know they unfold in time. Also in your analysis of them still today, looking back, I still feel like it was a finger, his finger touching me. But it also, in descriptive terms, seems like that same electric tearing of the veil, tearing of yourself in two. It seems like the way Neville describes that, that's what it was also. So it's still profound. The finger of the Lord appeared, as told us in Judges 6. And then the hand of God appeared in Daniel and this hand appeared in Isaiah. When the hand appears, it's God in action. It is God. We're all him anyway. So let's. Don't. Let's don't act funny about this story I'm telling about my experience. You have your experience. We're all him. He's playing all the parts. You're never separate from him. You can simply say right now, just say this. I am now. That is God. Now say it fully. I am God. He's playing all the parts. He made you in his image. He went to sleep in you so that you would wake up remembering you're Him. So when you say I am God, you're not saying anything negative or blasphemous or any of that kind of weird churchianity business. You're saying actual it. You're saying it. You're crying the name, your only name, his only name, which is I am the only name that works. So the spirit of the Lord, when it possesses man, you can dramatize that possession in the most marvelous way by seeing God actually clothing himself in that person. Well, that's a wonderful way to look at it. And actually wearing that man as though he were an outer garment. For I wore that home of Mine like an outer garment, we're told, Be ye imitators of God. As dear children, if I would imitate God and God's name is I am and he made me alive by wearing me. I'll make anything in this world alive by wearing it and so I will wear it. I wore that home that normally would not have been seen by me physically until the end of the year at the end of 1945. Maybe they'd even send me back in 1946 as they did many. But I didn't wait for any end of the war. I didn't wait for the voice of the pharaoh. There are always pharaohs in this world. And the man who played the part of a Pharaoh, may I tell you, was an awfully nice chap. He didn't know he was playing Pharaoh, but he played it for me to make the effort to believe in the name of God. And so if I do not accept the name of God as reality, I would have played the part and gone through the entire five years or whatever it was four years, I tell you, I felt, I really felt, I have to add this, I really felt that at the three year mark that was enough. And then in the fourth year we ended up going around the world again and it was another cruise, you know, on the ship and it was just like, oh, I'm done with this. I did not know his name, believe me. All I knew that Pharaoh existed. But I remembered God's word as revealed. And God's word is contemporary meaning today. People think it happened thousands of years ago and that this is an entirely different age. It's a different age altogether. This is the same age, I think, let me add this, the body of the Seth material. When you study Seth you realize that all time is now. There is no past and there is no future. It's only now as Neville describes in his works. It's an eternal now. In my father's house or many mansion is a wonderful way Mansions is a wonderful way to describe the fact of all probabilities exist at once. Probabilities is a word that describes the many yous, the many versions of you, the many lives you live. It's all the same thing. This is the same age and all the same people that thousands of years ago believed in the historicity of the story on this level are reenacting the entire scene. We're doing this book now. The book, the Bible is now. It's not a then, it's happening now. And the wonder of all this is Neville has given us the Key to unlock the mystery of the story. And it's not denomination based. Remember he studied Hebrew. He studied with Abdullah for five straight years. And I know what that means. That means every day, he said in previous lectures. They were stuck together like glue. They were always seen together because he was learning from his teacher everything he could get from his teacher. And his teacher was teaching him everything he knew. Just the understanding of that alone is deep. But remember, he was learning from Abdullah that the book is now he learned it, now he's gleaning it to us in his works. That the book is now the eternal now. Where we dwell is where the book dwells. Makes remember, it doesn't matter if the book is on the bookshelves anymore. It doesn't matter if every single version of them were burned today. It's not going to happen. But let's say for fun, as a fantasy, it's not going to happen. All of them disappeared from physical reality. Let's say we're in some bizarre twilight zone and they're all gone. That book, like the movie with Denzel Washington. I. Good golly, I forget the name of it. But he has the whole book memorized and he's traveling to, I think San Francisco and he makes it there. I think it's Alcatraz. He makes it to. I know I'm spoiling the movie if you haven't seen it, but watch it. Oh, I just. The name escapes me at this moment. Hopefully I'll remember it by the end of this lecture. But that is what I'm talking about. The book doesn't have to exist in physical form because it's in you and it's in me and it's unfolding in you and it's unfolding in me. The entire book, every single part of it is unfolding in you. It doesn't exist outside of you. Everything is you pushed out. This is another accepting part of this mystery. You have to accept that's another one of those little pieces. It's a key that fits this whole thing together. It's all. Now it's all coming from you. I'm going to repeat the sentence. This is the same age and all the same people that thousands of years ago believed in the historicity of the story on this level are reenacting this entire scene. Now they're plotting and planning a trip to a holy land. And they believe the holy land is on north shore of Africa. They're going to see where he was born and where he was buried in a tomb. And they don't know where he was born or he was buried. He is entombed in the skull of man. It's out of that same tomb that he's born. Whether you be here in America or in South America or in Africa or in any part of the world or in Europe, no matter where you are, he is not born in the physical little area called Egypt. Egypt is the world, this whole vast world. And there is always that Egypt from which the children of Israel must escape. So I tell you, I'm not speaking from theory. I am speaking from experience. I have experienced Scripture and I know the whole thing is true. Every word is true. What a man knows from experience, he knows more thoroughly than he knows anything else in this world. Or then he can know that same truth in any other way. Tonight I told you what I did to escape from Egypt in spite of Pharaoh's denial of my journey. And you know what I have done, or you believe I did it. But you will know it more thoroughly when you apply it and do it. That's why Neville says over and over, just test it. Just test it. Any of it. Try revision. Try imagining lovingly for any other person than yourself. So if tonight you were unemployed or some loved one is unemployed and you would only think of it, put him on and see this radiantly happy world in which you would live after the event and remain faithful to will be hatched out just as normally as God hatched you out as a living reality in this world. But everything has its own appointed hour. And you can't because you want it tonight. Say it must happen this night. It has its own appointed hour. And it will ripen and it will flower. If to you it seems long, well then be patient. Wait, for it is sure and it will not be late. So here is this fantastic world in which we live. And the story of scripture is true. Every word of it is true. You could clothe yourself this night in anything in the world. And it's the same thing that God did to make you alive. He clothed himself with you. He is wearing you as an outer garment. What is the core of that outer garment? I am. If I tell you, tell me who you are before you answer whether you use the words I am or not, you say, I am so and so and so there was a third so there before you say I am so and so and so. That's the core, the heart of you. That's God. But you may not believe that is God because you identify yourself with the outer garment. But God is working in the depth of our soul. And he is breaking down the wall of division between these two and making of the two one, as told us in Ephesians. He breaks it down and makes of the two one new man in place of the two, so we have peace. Ephesians 2:14. He makes peace that way because two is division. Two simply is conflict. And so he breaks it down within himself, so the two become one to fulfill Scripture. And so he leaves everything in this world and cleaves to his wife until they become one flesh. I am his emanation, you are his emanation. Then he enters his emanation, and then he leaves everything until the two become one. So he breaks down that wall of division. So I speak of God, that's two. I speak of the Lord. I speak of this. I speak of Jesus, I speak of Christ, but I can't speak of I am when there's only I am. That's the holy one, one, not two. Now listen to the words carefully. It's from the 43rd chapter of the Book of Isaiah. I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I. I am the Lord, and besides me, there is no Savior. Now the word translated, and listen to it carefully, go back. I am the Lord. The word translated Lord is the same. I am. I am the I am. Now the next word is your God, that is your I am. I am the I am. That is your I am. Ooh, breakdown. That's mic drop moment right there. I am the I am. That is your I am. That's what literally it means, your savior. You have no other savior but your own wonderful I am. And beside me there is no Savior. So I could have written to the president and said, I am a good democrat and I will vote for you. And I've got the whole community behind me. I want to get out. And I'm 38 years old. Plus, maybe he would have believed me or investigated my claim and maybe acted upon it. But I didn't write the president. I went straight to the I am. And so I granted my colonel his right to say no, disapproved. That's his right. He is Pharaoh. So am I, not the child of Israel asking to let me go. And so I'm pleading, please let me go from Egypt. And Pharaoh said no, disapproved. And so I slept on my little cot, and I assumed that I am, and I named it. I clothed myself in that which I desired and remained nine days hatching it out. So nine days later, he, Pharaoh, whose heart formerly was like flint now melts and he signs the petition without any further appeal on my part. He called me in. I didn't go see him. Nine days later he called me and said, you still want to get out? I said, yes, sir. So he signed the petition. And then nine days later, I was out of Egypt into the land of freedom. From what I understand from another telling of the story, he was. The colonel was saying, are you sure you want out of this army? Yes, sir. You sure you don't want to be proud like the rest of the men that served in the army? Yes, sir. Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? Every time he asked him, Neville just kept saying, yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. He was trying to kind of browbeat him and shame him into staying in the army. And Neville just said, no, yes, sir. I want out. I want out. And then he said, go fill out the form, have your captain sign it or whomever, and then bring it back to me and it'll be done. And then it was done. I have to add a little. What is it called? An errata of a sort. That's what you put into a book when you change something in the book. A few videos ago, I think it's count. Excuse me, something count. And I said in there, the word treble should have been triple. When actually in reality a comment came through that said that no, treble is defined as tripling as a noun or adjective. I looked it up and it is true. And you know, being so music minded, I can only think in terms of an equalizer, bass treble. And that's the way I took it because I still need to learn 20 songs. So it shows you where my mind is focused. But yeah, treble does mean triple. I think that's a wonderful celebration. But Neville, living in himself in his I am out of Egypt proved it in the most magnificent way during World War II. This is one of the stories that rocked my world. I think I heard this and read it in April of 22 when I was first learning Neville. I was only three or four months in and this one really grabbed a hold of me firmly. And so I'm trying to share with everyone in this world what I know God's name will do. That's I am his name. So you think yourself poor. All right, maybe you are poor. And therefore you are restricted in the land of Egypt, praying the name of God will get you out. Well, where is it? It isn't God and it isn't Lord and it isn't Jesus Christ. None of these. It's I am. That's the name of God. And so when you go to bed, I am. You name it and you clothe yourself in it, just as God clothed himself. And his name is I am with you. He clothed himself with a man and put it on as you would an outer garment. And then he believed himself the garment until finally he knows he's not the garment. He's the wearer of the garment. Ooh, crafty. Very poetic, Mr. Neville. Wow. He slid it right in at lowly in a lowly way right there. Ooh, I'm going to repeat it. And the wearer of the garment is I am. So you try it. And may I tell you, no power on earth can stop you from realizing your every desire in this world. Let's go back to Neville's poetic position. Wow. And so when you go to bed, I am. You name it and you clothe yourself in it just as God clothed himself. And his name is I am with you. He clothed himself with you. He clothed himself with a man and put it on as you would an outer garment. And then he believed himself the garment until finally he knows he's not the garment. He's the wearer of the garment. And the wearer of the garment is I am. So you try it. May I tell you, no power on earth can stop you from realizing your every desire in this world. And then will come the most fantastic, predetermined series of events that God in the beginning to prove he could come into death and actual death and escape from it, expanding himself beyond the wildest dream. It is God's doing. And God will do it. So this is the story of the Holy One. The Holy One, the Infinite One, is seated right here in everyone. When you say I am, that's he. But if you identify yourself with the garment that you wear and think I am limited and look at the world just as you see it, then you will remain. You will remain in Egypt. The purpose is to get completely out of Egypt until that moment in time comes when you really get out by a series of the most fantastic, mystical experiences that ever could be, that could ever be conceived. Normally, one could not conceive the visions, but they're all prophesied in scripture. That series will take place when that moment in time comes for you to completely depart for the last time from this world. Excuse me. Test it. Test it. Test it. I test it. What I do, I do little things like this one. I leave my house. I come to a street intersection, I make a left and I go Several blocks and then there's a four way stop sign. Then I go down a very long street to a stop light and that is my grocery store. So when I come to the four way stop sign I just described, after I make my left, I'm playing with the. I am, I am playing with the belief that when I hit this stop sign, when I go to the stop sign and make my stop, it's always free of any other cars. Now I don't have a problem waiting for who's there first and all this. I don't have that kind of dimensional problem when it comes to that kind of traffic. That's not a big thing for me. But when I come to this intersection, I am playing with altering a belief, altering my place, altering Egypt, altering my freedom within that. Every time I come to this intersection, there's no cars there. There's no one but my decision when to press. Finish pressing the brake pedal and start pressing the accelerator pedal. I play with that and more and more. When I hit this intersection, it's empty or it's completely my turn. If there's even somebody who just left, one car who just left. Even during peak traffic, when this intersection is constantly flooded by people coming to a stop and then going again, even during those peak moments where I do my errand to the store or whatever, I am playing with the belief that it's always, I'm always free to travel to this non conflict situation at this intersection. Non conflict meaning there's no other cars, there's no decisions to be made. It's just stop and then go. There's no, okay, you're going to go. Are you going to go? No, there's none of that. I'm playing with that. It's that. Playing with his name. I am always free to go at this intersection whenever I want. I used to do it on my road bike all the time. I would get on my road bike and I'd be riding towards San Diego from Long beach and I would play with it. And when I'm alone with no other bikes, all lights are green. And literally all lights, I'd be like 70 miles from home realizing I better start hitting some red lights because my feet are getting numb. And at a red light, when you're on a bike that many miles, you could put your foot down and rest it and then the blood can go back to it versus it being in the same position. And I think I did the math one time, some ridiculous number. I don't know if it's 13,000 or 130,000. Each foot makes so many revolutions. When you're going at a cadence of 95 RPMs a minute, and then you're going that many miles, that many minutes, seven hours, etc. It becomes a large number. So when I was hitting all the green lights, I didn't realize I'm not giving my leg and my foot, mostly my foot, because the blood is doing its job. You know, it's pedaling this many times, but I proved that I can hit all green lights. When I would hit the red lights would be when I would come upon another pack of bicyclists, road bikers, whatever, and then we'd be hitting red lights all the time. It's because something in their beliefs I just now joined. But when I was on my own and I'm saying to myself, I'm hitting all green lights, I would hit all green lights. And I had to. I had to try and unfocus from it because then I was stopping circulation from properly getting a balanced rest at a light now and then. So play with this stuff. Play with the I am. I am always hitting green lights. Whatever, Just play with it. But until that moment comes, let me go back and repeat a sentence or two. Normally, one could not conceive the visions, but they are all prophesied in scripture. Let me go back. Because it. Because he's talking about the mystical experiences. So this is the story of the Holy One. The Holy One, the Infinite One, is seated right here in everyone. When you say I am, that's he. But if you identify yourself with the garment that you wear and think, I am limited and look at the world just as you see it, and then you will remain in Egypt. The purpose is to get completely out of Egypt until the moment in time comes when you really get out of. When you really get out by a series of the most fantastic mystical experiences that could ever be conceived. Normally, one could not conceive the visions, but they're all prophesied in scripture. That series will take place when that moment in time comes. For you to completely depart for the last time from this world. I know why I wanted to repeat that is in the same way I'm practicing with the. With the bicycle at the green lights or the stop sign, you know, it's green for me, is to. Is to practice with your. Whatever you're, you know, not with this. I am limited. When you say I am, that's he. But if you identify yourself with the garment that you ever. That you wear and think I am limited, that's what you want to get out of your vocabulary? You want to see every time you pay electric bill that you. You've always paid Caesar his. His electric. You want to see yourself at 95 years old and having the ability to pay the electric for another 95 years. So you want to start folding in your thoughts, the belief in your wealth, like you're doing with your health. I'm always healthy. Doctor never needs to see me. He'd be wasting his time if he sees me. Why do I need to see him? I don't. The same way you fold that into your experience, you fold in the wealthy aspect. I've always paid my electric bills. I'm 95 years old right now. I've got five more years to live. It's amazing that I can pay another hundred years of my electric bill. And I run my air conditioner with the doors open, the same way you can do it with your marriage. We're always happy and in love. We're always laughing. My wife and I are always laughing. There's always something to laugh at. How are you folding in your. I am your vision of your experience. You're the author, the director, the writer, the producer, the actor. Weave it in. Make your granny square with it. But until that moment comes, he who has had the experiences must share it with everyone who is left behind. And so they told him not to talk about it. These are his words in the 20th chapter of the book of Jeremiah. If I say I will not mention him or speak any more in his name than there is in my heart, as it were a burning fire, all shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in. And I cannot. Verse nine. True, true, true. I could no more restrain the impulse to tell you what has happened to me and what I have experienced than I could stop breathing now and expect without breath to be five minutes later still in this world, in what you call a life. I couldn't. I can't restrain the impulse to talk about it. If I say I will not mention him or speak anymore in his name than there is in my heart, as it were a burning fire all shut up in my bones. And I cannot take it. Just cannot. Yes, I agree. I've always been that way. It's never been a problem for me at all. Except the pearls before swine thing. Okay, my teacher really had to drill that one out of me. That was one that. It's been a hard lesson. It's been a hard lesson for a lot of miles, but I have learned it. Revision is the ultimate nail in the coffin of throwing my pearls of wisdom before swine. And the beauty of what we're doing here in this context is that you have a choice to click. You can choose so I can throw pearls, but it doesn't matter that they're falling. They're not falling when they're not supposed to. When you choose, when you make the choice to share together this knowledge. For I cannot restrain that impulse to tell you of the true God in this world. And the only true God is housed in you as your own wonderful human imagination. So that all that you behold, though it appears without it, is within, in your wonderful human imagination. And this fabulous world of mortality is but its shadow. Blake, Jerusalem plate 71. You have never been included in the world that you describe. The world that is described from observation is always as it is described, relative to the describing observer. He can't put himself into the thing he describes, not in eternity. It is always less than himself, the observer. I don't care who you are. When I describe a world, it is always relative to myself who describes it. And I can't include myself, the describer, in the world as I am describing it. I am always greater than the world I describe, and that's God. And so you simply describe a world, and then, although it is less than you to have the experience of it, then put it on as a garment. It's less than you, but put it on as a garment. So God put this thing on as a garment. He put on all these as garments. He put the world on as a garment. But he who wears it is infinitely greater and always will be greater than that which he wears and that which he describes. He can't include himself into his description of the universe. So you try it. You try it this night, and if it doesn't work tomorrow morning, mine didn't work the next day, although I saw the picture the very first night I did it, the hand came there. He says it right there. The first night he did it, he didn't do it for nine days in a row. He did it once. The first night, the one night, the very first night I did it, the hand came, the hand of God. And I knew it was done. But I waited nine days, and nine days later it was done. I didn't go berserk in the interval, waiting. I waited patiently. I knew it was done. And I knew, in spite of that wonderful man who was my colonel, he had no choice in the matter. No, not even if at that very moment he had to drop dead in the world and. And his successor would sign the thing. It would make no difference to me, none whatsoever. I wouldn't have killed him. I wouldn't have shot him. But no matter what happened, either he himself, as the bearer, would sign it, or he would be displaced and someone would sign it. And that's the law. That's a very big pill to swallow right there. It will happen. If it be late, then wait, Be patient. For when the hand of God appeared, and who can stay his hand? Or say unto him, what doest thou? So when you see the hand, the hand is like the spirit of the Lord. That's why I say, in my experience, when I felt like I was touched by the finger of God, it's like his hand. It was like his hand. And I've seen this hand before, and I haven't talked about this a whole lot yet, but I've had many situations where I've seen a hand come in and alter my reality. And this is a subject on revision. I'll make a separate video, but all I can say is to make it a very short commercial, is to look at it as if I was aware of revision happening in my present reality, when I would see things around me change dramatically, as if a big hand came in and changed them. And to me, it's solid proof that revision works. Because I was aware in those moments I'm describing that revision, what was doing it. I didn't know the definition of revision, nor knew or was aware of it as Neville describes it, at all yet. But I was aware to the. I was aware of the interruption or the change or the intersections. I was aware enough of them to see them in real time, happening in my world. That now, as I learn revision and apply it, I know that that was revision happening in real time in front of me. And I'm telling you, wow. I would see it with these eyes, not with this eye. Then I realize now, looking back in hindsight, that that was revision. And that proves revision, proves it to me. You can't have those interruptive experiences without it being. Revision is possible. Revision is. It's part of your toolbox for when the hand of God appeared. And who can stay his hand or say unto him, what doest thou? So when you see the hand, the hand is like the spirit of the Lord. In fact, in the book of Matthew, they use the word spirit in the 12th chapter. And Luke in the 11th chapter, uses the word finger. If I by the spirit of the Lord cast out demons. And then in Luke, if I by the finger of The Lord cast out demons, so they accused him of casting out things, casting out these things in a strange way. So the spirit of the Lord in one book is called the finger of the Lord in the other, when you see it, all the imagery of scripture is true. They didn't make it up. The evangelists did not sit down and try to figure out some workable philosophy of life. They simply had the vision and put it down. In the Old Testament, they weren't working out some philosophy of life. They had the vision and they put it down. So when one called it a finger of the Lord, and the one called it a hand of the Lord, and the one called it the arm of the Lord, it's the same thing as the spirit of the Lord. So when the spirit of the Lord descends upon man in bodily form as a dove, it never departs thereafter. But until it descends upon man in bodily form as a dove, you can have it descend upon you temporarily by remembering his name and invoking it. But when it descends upon you in bodily form as a dove, it never departs from that moment on. But until then, it will come in temporal form. And you can do as I did. When Pharaoh said not to my request. Excuse me. When he said, when Pharaoh said no to my request and in spite of his no, you get out anyway. So this is the story I have of this. So this is the story that I have this night on the Holy One. It is the one with a capital O, N, E. This is my name forever for all generations. You're told the third chapter, 14, 16th verses on, in the book of Exodus. Go and tell them it's my name forever. I have no other name. The third chapter of Exodus, beginning at the 14th verse, when this fantastic revelation is made to man. And so here when you say, I am, that's he. And there is no other God. He isn't today in some high office other than where he is where you are now. So don't go to blank space yourself. You'll never find him where he was born or where he was buried. He is buried in your own wonderful human skull. That's where he's buried. And he's dreaming the most fantastic dream. I'm showing you how to change the dream by the use of his name until that day when he awakens from the dream to find himself entombed. And then he comes out. When he comes out, the whole world changes to him. Never again will he enter that tomb. He's left it. He enters an entirely different world, a world that is prepared Waiting for the outcoming of the dreamer who is God. Now let us go into the silence. It. Good boy. There's so much more deeper I could go. But being that we are on video. Your homework is two full minutes. I didn't go but maybe half a minute, 20 seconds, something like that. But it was a very wonderful silence period. Especially after this lecture. Oh my gosh. Wow. Inaudible Blank space Since this night, no, no blank space. It was so vivid, in fact I should have told it. But a friend of mine who came to me in correction of the manuscript of my book, when I told that story, I told the entire story to him and he said, were I you, I would delete the mystical aspect of the story. Because people reading the book will think they must have. They must have that vision in order to get the similar results he's speaking of. I think it's law on the promise, right? All the testimonials. He was going to put his military experience testimony on there, but the editor told him to keep it out. It should have been in there, in my opinion. It's a wonderful, wonderful story. But all the different versions of him saying it audibly are wonderful too, as well as written. So we have it for sure recorded, but should have been in the book, in my opinion. And so I abided by his decision and did not tell it as it actually happened. I told the story but deleted the mystical aspect of it, which I should not have done. I guess he told the story, but in shorter form. But he prevailed and told me it would be better for posterity if it did not have it attached to some mystical aspect whatever. Because whether you actually saw the hand or not, if you believe in the name of God and trusted him implicitly falling asleep, clothed in your wish fulfilled, it would work without the name of the hand or the finger or the arm. But I did not incorporate that into that story, the actual experience that I had for the simple reason I thought he might be wise in his recommendation. There it is. Just trust. Some never having had a vision, would think, well, now I must have the vision in order to make it work. So I believed him and so I didn't tell the story in its completeness. I can see that. I can see that whole. It could work for him because he had the vision and it's not going to work for me. Problem Inaudible Neville the First Coming Question mark. The kingdom of the Lord. I stood in his presence and I knew exactly. He incorporates his body and makes us all equal one by one. But I would not be the first who told it. It's told in the Bible, in the Book of Daniel, the Book of Revelation. Tape end. These tapes had to have an end, didn't they? So much. I'm sure there was some good stuff coming there, too. The holy one. 1212. 1963. We're going to see you in the next one.
