Manifesting a Desired Marriage00:00:07
Neville Goddard recounts a time when he was legally unable to marry the woman he loved. He applied his principles by simply assuming the feeling of being happily married to her and went to sleep with this conviction.
An Unforeseen Act Leads to Freedom00:00:32
Within a week, his first wife performed an act that, while condemned by society, ultimately led to his freedom to marry his desired partner. Goddard questions who the true 'culprit' is, asserting that it was his own imaginative act that orchestrated the events.
God is Man's Imagination00:00:51
Goddard explains that 'God is doing all in this world' and that 'man is all imagination.' He posits that his imagination, which is God within him, was responsible for the unfolding events. He states that he cannot blame his first wife, as she was merely an instrument of his assumed state.
Forgiving Others and the Fulfillment of Desire00:02:33
He concludes by encouraging forgiveness, as everyone plays their part in the fulfillment of one's desires. He relates this to the biblical cry from the cross, 'Father forgive them, for they know not what they do,' implying that others are unconscious instruments of one's own inner states.
