Things Which Do Not Appear Ch 10 The Law And The Promise by Neville Goddard

Neville Goddard the Law and the promise chapter 10 things which do Not Appear what is seen was made out of things which do not appear. Hebrews 11:3 Human history, with its forms of governments, its revolutions, its wars, and in fact the rise and fall of nations, could be written in terms of the rise and fall of ideas implanted in the minds of men. Herbert Hoover the secret of imagining is the greatest of all problems to the solution of which the mystic aspires. Supreme power, supreme wisdom, supreme delight lie in the far off solution of this mystery. Douglas Fawcett to refuse to recognize the creative power of man's invisible imaginal activity and is too great to be argued with. Man through his imaginal activity literally calls into existence the things that do not exist. By man's imaginal activity all things are made, and without such activity was not anything made that was made. Such causal activity could be defined as an imaginal assemblage of images which, occurring some physical event invariably takes place. It is for us to assemble the images of happy outcome and then keep from interfering. The event must not be forced, but allowed to happen. Very huge point. It is for us to assemble the images of happy outcome and then keep from interfering. The event must not be forced but allowed to happen. If imagination is the only thing that acts or is in existing beings or men, as Blake believed in parentheses, then we should never be certain that it was not some woman treading in the winepress who began that subtle change in men's minds. This grandmother is daily treading the winepress for her little granddaughter. She writes, this is one of those things that make my family and friends say, we just don't understand it. Kim is two and a half years old now. I took care of her for a month after she was born and did not see her again until a year ago and then only for two weeks. However, during this past year, every day I have taken her on my lap in my imagination and cuddled her and talked to her. In these imaginal this is for the past year. In these imaginal acts I go over all the wonderful things about Kim. God is growing through me, God is loving through me, etc. At first I would get the response of a very young child when I started. God is growing through me, she would reply me. Now as I start, she completes the whole sentence. Another thing that has happened is as the months have passed, as I take her in my imagination on my lap, she has grown constantly larger and heavier. Kim hasn't even seen a picture of me in this past year at the most, I could only be a name to her. Now, sometime each day her family tells me, she starts talking about me to no one in particular, just talking. Sometimes it goes on for an hour, or she goes on to the. Or she goes to the phone and pretends to call. In her monologue are such bits as Me Dee Dee loves me. Me, Dee Dee always comes to see me every day. Even though I know what I have been doing in my imagination. It has caused me too to wonder much sign DB Ah, just sit with that one for a minute. That is wonderful. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. All imaginative men and women are forever casting forth enchantments. And all passive men and women who have no powerful imaginative lives are continually passing under the spell of their power. There is no form in nature which is not produced by and sustained by some imaginal activity. Therefore, any change in the imaginal activity must result in a corresponding change in form. To imagine a substitute image for unwanted or defective content is to create it. If only we persist in our ideal imaginal activity and do not let lesser satisfactions suffice, Ours shall be the victory. When I read in Seedtime and Harvest the story of the schoolteacher who, through her imagination, in daily revision, transformed a delinquent pupil into a lovely girl, I decided to do something about a young boy in my husband's school. To tell all the problems involved would take pages. For my husband has never had such a difficult child, nor such a trying parent situation. The lad was too young to be expelled, yet the teachers refused to have him in their classes. To make matters worse, the mother and grandmother literally camped on the school grounds, making trouble for everyone. I wanted to help the boy, but I also wanted to help my husband. So nightly I constructed two scenes in my imagination. One, I saw a perfectly normal, happy child. Two, I heard my husband say, I can't believe it, dear, but do you know R is acting like a normal boy now. And it is heaven not having those two women around two imaginal scenes nightly. After two months of persisting. Okay, two months. Who's going to take two months? Who's going to take two months to at least persist at one kind of concept? You don't have to jump over everything. Just go to the one main desire. The one you have already felt within you is the most important one. You want to be married, in love, happily coming home from your honeymoon. That's the one. Then focus on that one. One desire. Spend two months and then come back and let us know what happened. Two months after two months of persisting in my imaginal play, night after night, my husband came home and said, it's like heaven around school. Not exactly the same words, but close enough for me. The grandmother had become involved in something that took her out of town, and the mother had to accompany her. At the same time, a new teacher had welcomed the challenge of R. And he was progressing wonderfully well into all I imagined for him. Sign GB don't forget, you're either looking through the eye imaginatively and lifting, or you're looking with the eye and reflecting what they already are. It is useless to hold standards that we do not apply. Unlike Portia who said, I can easier teach 20 what were good to be done than to be one of the 20 to follow mine own teaching. GB followed her own teaching. It is fatally easy to make the acceptance of the imaginal faith a substitute for living by it. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, end the opening of the prison to those who are bound. Isaiah 61:1. Wow, what a wonderful, short, potent, powerful chapter. Things which do not appear. Juicy bits all over the place. My favorite piece is the two months she simply read in Seedtime and Harvest about the success of the school teacher and the. And the little girl the delinquent pupil turned into a lovely girl. The one that said good morning. And then she decided to do something about the young boy in her husband's school. It wasn't even directly involved with her nightly. I constructed two scenes and after two months of persisting, I. I mean, what does that say to what it is you're trying to manifest, what it is you're trying to persuade yourself that is happening in your reality. It's either something, as we know, there's three major departments. It's something to do with health, it's something to do with wealth, it's something to do with love. Wisdom could be thrown in for the fun of it. One of these is typically the general direction you want to go. There's nothing wrong with picking the one that means the most to you right now and persisting night after night in the imaginal scene of yourself fulfilled. In the end, if it's hard to construct on the first night you move the needle that much. Great. The next night you move it again, move it again, move it again. Before you know it, you're going back. And this is getting longer and longer. This image is getting longer and longer. Before you know you have the full scene. Repeat it, repeat it. Go to bed. A little earlier. Don't just fall right asleep immediately. See what happens. Are you going to give it two months? Give it two months, then come back and let us know. All right. We're going to see you in the next chapter.
