Neville Goddard Quotes - Manifesting For Others
Come O blessed - 1967
"But as I said earlier, who would not give their right arm to serve Jesus Christ? Don’t you think that if our cardinal knew that Jesus was in the city, that he would want to entertain him? And he would put Jesus at the head of the table saying: “The Lord is here” yet he would pass by one in need! You don’t give money to those you see in need unless you want them to remain there, needing money. Instead give them riches in your imagination! My friend didn’t give the man one penny . . he inherited his wealth; but he did give his friend the gift of his talent, thereby multiplying it. He is among those called O blessed of my Father, come inherit the Kingdom of God. Why?
Because he gave of the one talent God gave him and fed the hungry, gave drink to the thirsty, and clothed the naked. When his friend was financially in prison and sick at heart because of his limitation, he didn’t give him one nickel, but by exercising his God given talent, he multiplied it. This is what I am talking about. Use the talent that God gave you. Don’t bury it, afraid to test its power. Exercise each talent, and as you do, your five will make ten. If you can only use two, use them to the best of your ability and they will increase. Then you will be highly commended, for you are not called upon to share physically with others, but to use your imagination and see them as you would like to be seen, were you in their position. If you were in need, would you not appreciate someone imagining you are affluent? That’s what my friend did and that’s what I am asking you to do."
Creative moments - 1965
"Q: Neville, are we not in some danger in trying to give somebody else what we think…giving them what we think they should have?
A: Not if you do in love. If you exercise your Imagination lovingly on behalf of another, something that you would willingly accept for yourself if rejected by the other, then you are on very safe ground. I wouldn’t take it upon myself to say that I’m going to separate these two people. No, I’m here for reconciliation, rather than separation. My friend told this story, which I shared with those who were here last Friday. So if you were not here, I will tell you because it really is quite an important thing as part of this technique. A lady asked…first of all, he gave her a new car. She hasn’t had a car in the longest while, so he assumed that he was this young lady, and then gave to her the car by wearing this garment, going to the street, seeing the lovely new car (which was her car), got into the car, had the top down—he saw the make, saw the color—then drove off with the wind against his face, all driving as this young girl. Then he pulled over to the curb, got out, leaving the girl now—he got out of the girl’s body back into his own—and he is now on the curb. She waved, smiled a nice, sweet, tender smile at him.
The next night, he went to the restaurant where he always goes. This girl is a waitress there, and she was so excited when they came in, he and his wife. She took them out to the street and showed the new car. It was the make, the color, and the top was down. It came to her as a gift in a sense because her mother not seeing her as often as she would like to see her daughter and knowing the reason was that she didn’t have a car, thought “this is selfish on my part, but I want to see more of my daughter so I’ll give her the money for a car.” And she bought the car. Now with the car giving her freedom which she had not enjoyed, that kind of freedom, in quite a long while, she asked him to now sever a relationship, that she depended on this man to take her home when she worked late and ___(??). The friendship became, well, closer and closer, and she asked to be free of it without hurt to the man, for he was kind and tender and sweet, considerate in that interval. But she wanted no more of it, but she didn’t want him hurt.
He, on the other hand, subconsciously must have resented this monopolizing of her time by this man ___(??), and so when he got into her body once more to free her of this man, he did not act in a kind way, with the result he found himself trapped and could not get out of her body for six hours. To the point where his own wife looked at him and said, “Who are you, ‘cause you’re not my husband!” He couldn’t get out of the body, he was trapped. And so he said, “I know now that without love you could be trapped; therefore, caution the class not to ever exercise this terrific power save in love.” After he got out after six hours of struggling he was so exhausted that he fell asleep and slept for twelve unbroken hours. Then the voice woke him in a very tender, tender manner—-the voice said, “I have restored my soul. Now I am gathering my own in love, beauty and joy.” So again, the vision broke into speech, confirming the presence of Deity.
So, to answer your question again, do it only in love. Whenever you do it in love, you’re doing the right thing. Someone may reject my gift, but am I willing to receive it back again and willingly? Alright, let them reject it, it returns to you. So do unto others that which you would have them do unto you."
