Unlock the Secret to Manifestation with Neville Goddard's Feeling is the Secret Audiobook!
In this narrated audiobook, Big Abundant introduces Neville Goddard’s short work Feeling Is the Secret and breaks it into three parts, aiming to embed its teachings into listeners’ minds through repeated listening. The core message is that consciousness is the sole reality and is divided into a conscious (male, selective) and a subconscious (female, non‑selective) aspect. The conscious mind generates ideas, but only feelings can impress those ideas onto the subconscious, which then objectively manifests them in the external world. Consequently, controlling one’s feelings—not by suppression but by deliberately entertaining only those that align with happiness and the wish‑fulfilled state—is essential for creation. Negative moods, regret, or dwelling on obstacles imprint undesirable patterns that the subconscious faithfully reproduces. The narrator emphasizes assuming the feeling of already having one’s desire, avoiding counter‑productive emotions, and using sleep and prayer as gateways to influence the subconscious directly. Biblical references are woven in to illustrate the universal nature of these principles. The overall purpose is to provide listeners with a clear, actionable roadmap to manifest their desires by mastering the law of consciousness as presented by Goddard.

Get these laws embedded in your mind, embedded in your body, so you can live them out on accident and really truly create the life that you desire. Feeling Is the Secret by Neville Goddard, narrated by Big Abundance. This book is concerned with the art of realizing your desire. It gives you an account of the mechanism used in the production of the visible world. It is a small book, but not slight. There is a treasure in it, a clearly defined road to the realization of your dreams. Were it possible to carry conviction to another by means of reasoned arguments and detailed instances, this book would be many times its size. It is seldom possible. However, to do so by means of written statements or arguments, since to the suspended judgment it always seems plausible to say that the author was dishonest or deluded, and therefore his evidence was tainted. Consequently, I have purposely omitted all arguments and testimonials, and simply challenge the open-minded reader to practice the Law of Consciousness as revealed in this book. Personal success will prove far more convincing than all the books that could be written on the subject. The Law and Its Operation. The world and all within it is man's conditioned consciousness objectified. Consciousness is the cause as well as the substance of the entire world. So it is to consciousness that we must turn if we would discover the secret of creation. Knowledge of the law of consciousness and the method of operating this law will enable you to accomplish all you desire in life. Armed with a working knowledge of this law, you can build and maintain an ideal world. Consciousness is the one and only reality, not figuratively but actually. This reality may, for the sake of clarity, be likened unto a stream which is divided into 2 parts. The conscious and the subconscious. In order to intelligently operate the law of consciousness, it is necessary to understand the relationship between the conscious and the subconscious. The conscious is personal and selective. The subconscious is impersonal and non-selective. The conscious is the realm of effect. The subconscious is the realm of cause. These 2 aspects are the male and female The conscious is the male; the subconscious is female. The conscious generates ideas and impresses these ideas on the subconscious. The subconscious receives ideas and gives form and expression to them. By this law— first conceiving an idea and then impressing the idea conceived on the subconscious— all things evolve out of consciousness. And without this sequence there is not anything made that is made. The conscious impresses the subconscious, while the subconscious expresses all that is impressed upon it. The subconscious does not originate ideas, but accepts as true those which the conscious mind feels to be true, and in a way known only to itself objectifies the accepted ideas. Therefore, through his power to imagine and feel, and his freedom to choose the ideas he will entertain, man has control over creation. Control of the subconscious is accomplished through control of your ideas and feelings. The mechanism of creation is hidden in the very depths of the subconscious, the female aspect, or womb, of creation. The subconscious transcends reason and is independent of induction. It contemplates a feeling as a fact existing within itself, and on this assumption proceeds to give expression to it. The creative process begins with an idea, and its cycle runs its course as a feeling, and ends in a volition to act. Ideas are impressed on the subconscious through the medium of feeling. No idea can be impressed on the subconscious until it is felt, but once felt, be it good, bad, or indifferent, it must be expressed. Feeling is the one and only medium through which ideas are conveyed to the subconscious. Therefore, the man who does not control his feelings may easily impress the subconscious with undesirable states. By control of feeling is not meant restraint or suppression of your feeling, but rather the disciplining of yourself to imagine and entertain only such feelings as contribute to your happiness. Control of your feeling is all-important to a full and happy life. Never entertain an undesirable feeling. Nor think sympathetically about wrong in any shape or form. Do not dwell on the imperfection of yourself or others. To do so is to impress the subconscious with these limitations. What you do not want done unto you, do not feel that it is done unto you or another. This is the whole law of a full and happy life. Everything else is commentary. Every feeling makes a subconscious impression, and unless it is counteracted by a more powerful feeling of an opposite nature, must be expressed. I am healthy is a stronger feeling than I will be healthy. To feel I will be is to confess I am not. I am is stronger than I am not. What you feel you are always dominates what you feel you would like to be. Therefore, to be realized, the wish must be felt as a state that is, rather than a state that is not. Sensation precedes manifestation and is the foundation upon which all manifestation rests. Be careful of your moods and feelings, for there is an unbroken connection between your feelings and your visible world. Your body is an emotional filter and bears the unmistakable marks of your prevalent emotions. Emotional disturbances, especially suppressed emotions, are the cause of all disease. To feel intensely about a wrong without voicing or expressing that feeling is the beginning of disease— dis-ease in both body and environment. Do not entertain the feeling of regret or failure, for frustration or detachment from your objective results in Think feelingly only of the state you desire to realize. Feeling the reality of the state sought, and living and acting on that conviction, is the way of all seeming miracles. All changes of expression are brought about through a change of feeling. A change of feeling is a change of destiny. All creation occurs in the domain of the subconscious. What you must acquire, then, is a reflective control of the operation of the subconscious— that is, control of your ideas and feelings. Chance is not responsible for the things that happen to you, nor is predestined fate the author of your fortune or misfortune. Your subconscious impressions determine the conditions of your world. The subconscious is not selective. It is impersonal and no respecter of persons. Acts 10:34, Romans 2:11. The subconscious is not concerned with the truth or falsity of your feeling. It always accepts as true that which you feel to be true. Feeling is the assent of the subconscious to the truth of that which is declared to be true. Because of this quality of the subconscious, there is nothing impossible to man. Whatever the mind of man can conceive and feel is true, the subconscious can and must objectify. Your feelings create the pattern from which your world is fashioned, and a change of feeling is A change of pattern. The subconscious never fails to express that which has been impressed upon it. The moment it receives an impression, it begins to work out the ways of its expression. It accepts the feelings impressed upon it, your feelings, as a fact existing within itself, and immediately sets about to produce in the outer or objective world that exact likeness of that feeling. The subconscious The subconscious never alters the accepted beliefs of man. It outpictures them to the last detail, whether or not they are beneficial. To impress the subconscious with the desirable state, you must assume the feeling that would be yours had you already realized your wish. In defining your objective, you must be concerned only with the objective itself. The manner of expression or the difficulties involved are not to be considered by you. To think feelingly on any state impresses it on the subconscious. Therefore, if you dwell on difficulties, barriers, or delay, the subconscious, by its very nonselective nature, accepts the feeling of difficulties and obstacles as your request and proceeds to produce them in your outer world. The subconscious is the womb of creation. It receives the idea into itself through the feelings of man. It never changes the idea received, but always gives it form. Hence the subconscious outpictures the idea in the image and likeness of the feeling received. To feel a state of hopeless or impossible is to impress the subconscious with the idea of failure. Although the subconscious faithfully serves man, it must not be inferred that the relationship is that of servant to master, as was anciently conceived. The ancient prophets called it the slave and servant of man. St. Paul personified it as a woman and said, the woman should be subject to man in everything. Ephesians 5:24. Also, 1 Corinthians 14:34, Ephesians 5:22, Colossians 3:18, and 1 Peter 3:1. The subconscious does serve man and faithfully gives form to his feelings. However, The subconscious has a distinct distaste for compulsion and responds to persuasion rather than command. Consequently, it resembles the beloved wife more than the servant. The husband is head of the wife may not be true of man and woman in their earthly relationship, but it is true of the conscious and the subconscious, or the male and the female aspects of consciousness. The mystery to which Paul referred when he wrote, This is a great mystery. He that loveth his wife loveth himself, and they two shall be one flesh, is simply the mystery of consciousness. Consciousness is really one and undivided, but for creation's sake, it appears to be divided into two. The conscious, objective, or male aspect truly is the head and dominates the subconscious, subjective, or female aspect. However, this leadership is not that of the tyrant but of the lover. So by assuming the feeling that would be yours were you already in possession of your objective, the subconscious is moved to build the exact likeness of your assumption. Your desires are not subconsciously accepted until you assume the feeling of their reality, for only through feeling is an idea subconsciously accepted, and only through this subconscious acceptance is it ever expressed. It is easier to ascribe your feeling to events in the world rather than admit that the conditions of the world reflect your feeling. However, it is eternally true that the outside mirrors the inside. As within, so without. A man can receive nothing unless it is given him from heaven. John 3:27. And the kingdom of heaven is within you. Luke 17:21. Nothing comes from without. All things come from within, from the subconscious. It is impossible for you to see other than the contents of your consciousness. Your world in its every detail is your consciousness objectified. Objective states bear witness of subconscious impressions. A change of impression results in a change of expression. The subconscious accepts as true that which you feel is true, and because creation is the result of subconscious impressions, you, by your feeling, determine creation. You are already that which you want to be, and your refusal to believe this is the only reason you do not see it. To seek on the outside for that which you do not feel you are is to seek in vain, for we never find that which we want; we find only that which we are. In short, you express and have only that which you are conscious of being or possessing. To him that hath, it is given. Matthew 13:12, 25:29, Mark 4:25, Luke 8:18, Denying the evidence of the senses and appropriating the feeling of the wish fulfilled is the way to the realization of your desire. Master of self-control of your thoughts and feelings is your highest achievement. However, until perfect self-control is attained so that in spite of appearances you feel all that you want to feel, use sleep and prayer to aid you in realizing your desired states. These are the 2 gateways into the subconscious.
