Neville Goddard Lectures: “Order Your Conversations Aright”
undated…So, it is simply that the mind reflects it. And the mind reflects God. So, my God goes back, then, to my speech. So, I am simply reproducing the same old story in my world when I could easily change the record. Back in 1953 my wife had a vision. It was an audio-vision. She jumped out of bed and came into the living room. I always rise early. She came barging through looking for the dictionary, and…
Neville Goddard Lp 1955 How To Use Your Imagination Mental Diets
1955…“Now is the accepted time, now is the day of salvation.” It is only what is done now that counts, even though its effects may not be visible until tomorrow. We call, not out loud, but by an inner effort of intense attention; to listen attentively, as though you heard, is to create. The events and relationships of life are your Word made visible. Most of us rob others of their willingness and their…
Neville Goddard Inner Talking Rare Lecture
April 16, 1965…So I call upon everyone here this night to test it. And may I tell you, my friend who never spoke in public before, to do it and in one month he ___(??) challenge: go out and tell the whole vast world that you meet of the reality of your own wonderful human Imagination.

Control Your Inner Conversations
April 26, 1971…Then in Ephesians we are told, — it’s the 4th chapter: “Put off the old nature which belongs to the former conversations, and put on the new nature.” The “new nature” is sometimes translated “the new man,” and the “old nature” the “old man.” Well, if I equate the “old nature” with the “former conversations,” I must equate the “new man” with the “new conversations.” So, He identifies the inner spee…
Neville Goddard Lectures: “The Coin of Heaven”
November 15, 1971…Know what to do, carry on, an inner conversation from the premise of the wish fulfilled, and then persist in that assumption. If I keep that story before me, as the fourth chapter of Psalm tells me: “Commune with your own heart upon your bed and then be silent.” Communing in what sense? Carry on a dialogue. What dialogue? From the premise of my wish fulfilled. Would I share it? I would share it wi…
Awakened Imagination (1954)
1954…There are two gifts which God has bestowed upon man alone, and on no other mortal creature. These two are mind and speech; and the gift of mind and speech is equivalent to that of immortality. If a man uses these two gifts rightly, he will differ in nothing from the immortals… and when he quits the body, mind and speech will be his guides, and by them he will be brought into the troop of the gods …
Neville Goddard Lectures: “Our Real Beliefs”
March 6, 1964…He said, “Alright, I can’t find the stand, I will design one.” So he designed the stand and had it made. When the stand came and he placed it where he intended putting the machine, he said to himself, “I will now see the machine on it,” which he did. He said, “Now that I have the machine it’s only fair to pay the bill,” so he sat down and wrote the check out and sent the check off to the electroni…
Neville Goddard Lectures: Creation
February 9, 1965…Q: After all this happens, do you still meet tests to overcome? A: After it happens? You’re still wearing a garment of flesh and these garments of flesh are related to the animal world. This is part of the world of the beast. I can’t stop it…I must eat, I must do all the things that the animal world is doing, it’s part of the animal world. When it’s taken off after these experiences, you’ve taken …
