The world in which we live is a world of imagination.
In fact, life itself is an activity of imagining
Imagination creates reality
- # -man; they are carrying all of its contents with it. Any
Nothing appears or continues in being by a power of
its own. Events happen because comparatively stable
imaginal activities created them, and they continue in
being only as long as they receive such support.
Do not bow before the dictate of facts and accept life
on the basis of the world without. Assert the
supremacy of your Imaginal acts over facts and put
all things in subjection to them.
Hold fast to your ideal in your imagination. Nothing
can take it from you but your failure to persist in
imagining the ideal realized. Imagine only such states
that are of value or promise well.
To attempt to change circumstances before you
change your imaginal activity, is to struggle against
the very nature of things.
There can be no outer change until there is first an
imaginal change. Everything you do, unaccompanied
by an imaginal change, is but futile readjustment of
surfaces. Imagining the wish fulfilled brings about a
union with that state, and during that union you
behave in keeping with your imaginal change.
Imagination is spiritual sensation. Enter the image of
the wish fulfilled, then give it sensory vividness and
tones of reality by mentally acting as you would act
were it a physical fact.
Now, this is what I mean by spiritual sensation.
Imagine that you are holding a rose in your hand.
Smell it.
Changing your life means changing the past. The
causes of any present evil are the unrevised scenes of
the past.
The past and the present form the whole structure of
alteration of content will result in an alteration in the
present and future.
 Changing your life means changing the past. The

The past and the present form the whole structure of

man; they are carrying all of its contents with it. Any
alteration of content will result in an alteration in the
present and future.

To revise the past is to re-construct it with new

content. Man should daily relive the day as he wished
he had lived it, revising the scenes to make them
conform to his ideals.
By using her imagination radically, instead of
conservatively - by building her world out of pure
dreams of fancy -, rather than using images supplied
by memory, she brought about the fulfillment of her
dream.

Common sense would have used images supplied by

Revising the past her memory, and thereby perpetuated the fact of lack
in her life. Imagination created what she desired out
of a dream of fancy. Everyone must live wholly on the
level of imagination, and it must be consciously and
deliberately undertaken.
There is no inevitable permanence in anything. Both
past and present continue to exist only because they
are sustained by “Imagining” on some level or other;
and a radical transformation of life is always possible
by man revising the undesirable part of it.

There is no fiction. If an imaginal activity can produce

a physical effect, our physical world must be
essentially imaginal.

To prove this would require merely that we observe

our imaginal activities and watch to see whether or
not they produce corresponding external effects. If
they do, then we must conclude that there is no
fiction. Today’s imaginal drama - fiction - becomes
tomorrow’s fact.

Nothing is so fatal as conformity. We must not allow
ourselves to be girt about by the ringed fixity of fact.
Change the image, and thereby change the fact.
The Law and the Promise It is this “Eye of Imagination” and only this that can
Neville Goddard free us from the sense fixation of outer things which
Fiction becomes fact completely dominates our ordinary existence and
keeps us looking on the reflective glass of facts.
Self-abandonment. That is the secret. We have to
abandon ourselves to the state, in our love for the
state, and in so doing live the life of the state and no
more our present state. Imagination seizes upon the
life of the state and gives itself to the expression of
the life of that state.

Faith plus Love is self-commission. We can’t commit

ourselves to what we do not love.
Shift the focus of awareness and see what happens.
However little we move mentally, we should perceive
the world under a slightly changed aspect.

Awareness is usually moved about in space by

Cultivating faith in your imagination
movement of the physical organism but it need not be
so restricted. It can be moved by a change in what we
are aware of.
What the world looks like depends entirely on where
man is when he makes his observations. And man,
being ‘All Imagination,’ must be where he is in
imagination.
The only reason people do not believe in this identity
of God and human imagination is that they are
unwilling to assume the responsibility for their
frightful misuse of imagination.

Divine Imagination has descended to the level of

human imagination, that human imagination may
ascend to Divine Imagination.

 Unless the individual imagines himself, someone else,
or somewhere else, the present conditions and
circumstances of his life will continue in being and his
problems recur, for all events renew themselves from
his constant images. By him they were made; by him
they continue in being; and by him they can cease to
be.

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.
Memory, though faulty, is adequate to the call for
sameness. If we remember another as we have
known him, we recreate him in that image, and the
past will be recognized in the present.

Imagining creates reality. If there is room for

improvement, we should re-construct him with new
content; visualize him as we would like him to be,
rather than have him bear the burden of our memory
of him.
None is to be discarded, all must be saved, and our
Imagination reshaping memory is the process
whereby this salvation is brought to pass. To
condemn the man for having lost his way is to punish
Leveling up your Attitude the already punished.
We must use our imagination to achieve particular
ends, even if the ends are all trivia. Because men do
not clearly define and imagine particular ends the
results are uncertain, while they might be perfectly
certain. To imagine particular ends is to discriminate
clearly.
Satan, Blake writes, is a “Reactor”. He never acts; he
only reacts. And if our attitude to the happenings of
the day is “reactionary”, are we not playing Satan’s
part?

Man is only reacting in his natural or Satan state; he
never acts or creates, he only reacts or recreates.
One real creative moment, one real feeling of the
wish fulfilled, is worth more than the whole natural
life of reaction.
