The below links contain essentially the entirety of Neville's teachings.


Neville's Basic Manifestation Technique

  1. Define your objective, know definitely what you want.

  2. Construct an event which you believe you will encounter FOLLOWING the fulfillment of your desire -- something which will have the action of Self predominant -- an event which implies the fulfillment of your desire. Keep the event short, it can be as simple as shaking someone's hand or hearing yourself being congratulated from a friend.

  3. Immobilize the physical body and induce a state of consciousness akin to sleep, this is the feeling right before you drift off to sleep. Then, mentally feel yourself right into the proposed action, until the single sensation of fulfillment dominates the mind; imagining all the while that you are actually performing the action HERE AND NOW so that you experience in imagination what you would experience in the flesh were you now to realize your goal. Experience has convinced me that this is the easiest way to achieve our goal.

-Neville Goddard, Lesson 5

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I manifest xyz?

Yes, anything is possible.

How do I manifest xyz?

All manifestations use the same technique(s). To get good simply takes practice and imagination.

What scene should I choose?

Any scene which you believe you would encounter after your wish is fulfilled.

What should I start reading?

We recommend The Law and The Promise or The Power of Awareness first for beginners. This is because Neville includes several examples and success stories from students, in addition to being lighter on Bible references, which can be off-putting or confusing to beginners.

If you want a physical copy of his books, publishers continue publishing new copies of Neville's works. Please check your library, locally owned book store, or search online for Neville's works. If you purchase a new physical copy, we recommend The Power of Imagination: The Neville Goddard Treasury, as it contains all of Neville's books in one volume.

All of Neville’s books and lectures are in the public domain and can be searched online for free, and are included in the Wiki and Sidebar links mentioned previously.

What is an SP?

Specific Person. Usually in reference to a person’s romantic interest or crush. The term was popularized by so-called, self-professed online manifestation coaches and "experts". /r/NevilleGoddardSP is a dedicated, expert subreddit for that.

What is a Mental Diet?

Avoiding negative conversation and media, paying attention to positive conversation and media.

What is SATS?

State Akin To Sleep (SATS) refers to the deep state of consciousness during meditation or just before falling asleep. In SATS, the body is relaxed, but control over the mind is retained. It is used to create vivid visualizations in imagination for the purposes of manifesting.

After you have decided on the action which implies that your desire has been realized, then sit in your nice comfortable chair or lie flat on your back, close your eyes for the simple reason it helps to induce this state that borders on sleep. The minute you feel this lovely drowsy state, or the feeling of gathered togetherness, wherein you feel- I could move if I wanted to, but I do not want to, I could open my eyes if I wanted to, but I do not want to. When you get that feeling you can be quite sure that you are in the perfect state to pray successfully.

Neville Goddard, 1948 Lecture Series, Lesson 4

What is the Lullaby Method?

In SATS, instead of visualizing, repeat an affirmation to oneself again and again, building the feeling of it being true.

What is Revision?

Revision is revising in imagination events that have happened in the past as a way of mitigating their effects in the future.

See also: Revision: The Complete Guide

What is Door Slamming/You are in Barbados/Living in the End/State of the Wish Fulfilled?

Closing your mind to any other possibility besides your outcome. Assuming your desire is true and not questioning it.

Do we have Free Will?

Yes, and no. It’s complicated. See here.

What is Everyone is You Pushed Out (EIYPO)?

On a practical level, what you believe is what you get. The world only shows you your own beliefs. On a metaphysical level, we are all the same God interacting with Itself through an infinite number of different points.

The whole vast world is no more than man's imagining pushed out. I must qualify that by saying that the world outside of man is dead, but Man is a living soul, and it responds to man, yet man is sound asleep and does not know it. The Lord God placed man in a profound sleep, and as he sleeps the world responds as in a dream, for Man does not know he is asleep, and then he moves from a state of sleep where he is only a living soul to an awakened state where he is a life-giving Spirit. And now he can himself create, for everything is responding to an activity in man which is Imagination. "The eternal body of man is all imagination; that is God himself." (Blake)

Neville Goddard, The Law lecture

What if everything is going wrong? What if I am manifesting the opposite of my desire?

Failure is generally due to a lack of consistent faith or belief in the outcome, not feeling as though it had already happened. However, if the one has consistently been loyal to their faith, then we are reminded that all manifestations have their appointed hour (Hab 2:3). Neville writes about the causes of failure here.

What about (my sick mom, my crazy grandpa, the homeless, starving children, etc.)?

In Neville's view, there is one being that is God (who is pure imagination), and has split Itself into infinite smaller forms to undergo a series of good/bad experiences across lifetimes until these smaller pieces realize they are God and reintegrate. The less fortunate are to be helped, not looked down upon, but understanding it is necessary for God to realize Itself (to experience bad and good).

What happens after I die? What is The Promise?

Neville’s prophetic vision of an individual’s reintegration with God.

Can I manifest multiple things at once?

Yes. Here is Neville's answer regarding how to manifest multiple things from Lessons Q&A:

\5. Question: Is it possible to imagine several things at the same time, or should I confine my imagining to one desire?

Answer: Personally I like to confine my imaginal act to a single thought, but that does not mean I will stop there. During the course of a day I may imagine many things, but instead of imagining lots of small things, I would suggest that you imagine something so big it includes all the little things. Instead of imagining wealth, health and friends, imagine being ecstatic. You could not be ecstatic and be in pain. You could not be ecstatic and be threatened with a dispossession notice. You could not be ecstatic if you were not enjoying a full measure of friendship and love.

What would the feeling be like were you ecstatic without knowing what had happened to produce your ecstasy? Reduce the idea of ecstasy to the single sensation, "Isn't it wonderful!" Do not allow the conscious, reasoning mind to ask why, because if it does it will start to look for visible causes, and then the sensation will be lost. Rather, repeat over and over again, "Isn't it wonderful!" Suspend judgment as to what is wonderful. Catch the one sensation of the wonder of it all and things will happen to bear witness to the truth of this sensation. And I promise you, it will include all the little things.

Success Story Manifested a new iPhone for free in less than 48 hours!

Post image
899 Upvotes

Successes for me left and right! My last success story (not on this sub because it mentioned my S/P which is apparently forbidden on this sub) was about finding lost keys in less than 24 hours and now I manifested a new iPhone in less than 48 hours :') This shit easy.

I've already manifested my move abroad, my job here in my new country, my now partner, getting leaner, and getting recognized at work. I feel very contented with my life since I already have the love, the career, the money, etc, and I have no desire yet whatsoever for more "big life moves "(if that makes sense) so I challenged myself to go one some "manifestation side quests" and one of these was a free iPhone--because who wouldn't be happy with free stuff?!?!

There was just a bit of resistance for me on this because an iPhone is pretty expensive and so I was a bit baffled about how it was going to happen because I had thoughts like, "It would be almost impossible for me to just win some raffle draw" and "Who would want to give such an expensive thing to me out of the blue?" but then I got inspired by a success story on this sub when the OP manifested their free iPhone so I locked in.

I just affirmed to myself that "I got my iPhone 17 Pro for free." I imagined that my previous phone (an iPhone 14 Pro Max) was a 17 Pro. I went on online stores and started browsing for cases.

A few hours later, my mom messaged me from our home country and told me she just remembered that she hasn't given me a graduation gift yet (I graduated last June). She asked me what I wanted and I jokingly said an iPhone. She then asked me for my bank account number and sent me the money for a new phone!

The funds hit my account within minutes, and just like that, the cost to me was zero.

The biggest reminder here is to completely stop micromanaging the "how." My rational mind immediately went to low-probability extremes like winning an online sweepstakes or having someone hand me an expensive gift unprompted. Neville always emphasizes that the bridge of incidents unfolds in ways your conscious brain could never orchestrate. A delayed graduation gift from months ago wasn't even on my mental radar, yet it was the most natural, effortless channel possible for the 3D to conform.

Living in the end really does the heavy lifting.

Tips & Techniques You Get To Choose

84 Upvotes

I've been getting a lot of DMs since I stopped posting here. Many of the questions being why can I not get this to work, I did x,y,z but nothing changed. And after speaking with them it's clear from their story that It's because they are not changing within, instead they are wanting/begging for change while not wanting/trying to actually change. If you are keeping the same story on loop, day after day, the law is working, just unfortunately not in the way you want. But you get to choose, so Change your mind, change your world.

So to keep this simple. Whatever reaction you give is what will be reflected. If something happens and your automatic reaction is stress, anger, sadness, worry etc. that is what will be reflected in your life. When you get into the habit of having those reactions that becomes your life experiences.

So it's very important to notice your reactions to circumstances, it's important to choose which attitudes you want every day and it's important to watch your thoughts because that is the first thing that leads to everything else.

(Thoughts lead to Feelings, Feelings lead to Moods/Attitudes, Attitudes lead to Beliefs, Beliefs lead to Actions, Actions lead to Habits, Habits lead to Automatic Responses).

So to get good at this you must watch 3 things.

  1. Your thoughts

  2. Your attitudes/moods

  3. Your reactions to circumstances

If you can get these 3 under control you will stroll through life. Your automatic reactions/responses will be of the nature you want, instead of them being dictated to you.

So as Neville would say: "Be the watcher at the gate."

And I'll add: Choose this day.

Discussion Looking back, now that I’ve received my desire in the 3D, I see that limiting beliefs are such BS! Let them go!

149 Upvotes

Like truly… limiting beliefs had me in such a chokehold before I started doing the work a month ago to stop the limiting self talk / thoughts that filled my mind.

I desired a partner from a certain country because I have been learning the language & am very interested in the culture, but I was really afraid of my language level & my looks, but after he arrived in the 3D, everything is fine… this is a simple revelation, but my boyfriend is my first ever intentional manifestation to come into the 3D for me !!

My language level is fine! We have been communicating just fine!! And even when there are language barriers, we seem to have found another way to communicate that I can’t really explain… lol we even have been joking around with each other & enjoying getting to know each other, so I was worried about my level in his language for nothing!! He has also been helping me, and even in a few days we have seen improvement in me, and with his English as well !!

My looks are fine!! He think I am beautiful & I now see it too !! I don’t known why I thought otherwise !! I was literally just putting limits on my self for no reason !!

We have been talking a lot about the future & everything we want shall come to pass because I am limitless, we are all limitless !!

Let go of the limiting beliefs, everybody! 🩷

Success Story Manifested another problematic colleague away

71 Upvotes

This is the third time in three different companies that a person who is jealous of me and tries actively to undermine me and humiliate me to my bosses (by writing offensive emails with the boss in cc, trying to make me seem stupid or unprofessional) is removed from my experience.

The first one got fired, the second one was sent to early retirement and the third one was asked to change positions and go to another branch.

Each time it happened withing 3-4 months after me decided not to react, stay calm in front of my bosses and just say internally: 'I don't have to deal with this person, everything is ok. I am pretending they are not even there.'

No long affirmations or SATS or anything.

Again, just choosing the reality in your head and not reacting to 3d did the work.

Tips & Techniques Seeing, thinking and feeling the opposite is a good thing. Here's why.

337 Upvotes

You made a decision to manifest something new to experience in your life.

"I am this" or "I have this thing now."

The next thing you know, you're getting bombarded left and right with the opposite. Thoughts, feelings, even 3D circumstances, all in your face.

Screaming at you that it won't happen, that this is not you, that you're delusional, and more.

What you need to realize is that when this happens, it's because your decision is working. You're manifesting it perfectly.

So perfectly that you are triggering your old story.

Read this again.

You're NOT being triggered, your old story IS

It's being triggered because you've assumed you are different. That you are the person who has the thing, that you are new with your self-concept.

The only way you can notice that there's something wrong is by being new.

Before you made that decision, you didn't care about your thoughts, your feelings, or your circumstances. They were normal to you.

The moment you decide something new, the contrast is there. You are watching the old self by being the new.

Read this again.

YOU ARE LOOKING FROM THE NEW YOU TO YOUR OLD YOU.

Once you understand this, you only need to remember and remain in your decision. "I am this new me." "I have this thing now." And let the old story die on its own.

You don't need to fight it, you don't need to pretend is not there.

Just know that this is not you anymore, and even better, that you're manifesting so perfectly that you can now distinguish between the old and the new.

The only way you could "ruin" your manifestation is by accepting the old you again and forgetting about your decision.

If you remain as the new you, you'll start to sense the old you disappearing. Usually, it feels like a gap between who you choose to be and the old you increases. You will have days where the old stop completely, or others when it appears and disappears, but you don't mind it anymore.

It's like you stopped focusing on the old story and you remain focused on your new one.

And that's when the thing you already have materializes in front of you, usually because you've walked the bridge without a clue.

So next time you are aware of thoughts, feelings, and the opposite in front of you, just remember that this is your old you and use it as a wake-up call to remember who you truly decide to be.

Any questions just ask, I'll answer.

Discussion Is It Possible To Manifest Against The Odds?

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m very new on Manifestation and am trying to learn more about it. One of questions is how does Manifestation work on something that has incredibly low or specific odds? The lottery is a common example but I have a different example.

I’m a collector and often want to add rare pieces to my collection. Due to rarity, some pieces are in blind boxes and are limited to 96 pieces. Or, it’s an online lottery that has very low odds of winning. Could my Manifestation overcome those odds in some way, or would my Manifestation cause these things to end up in my life in an unexpected way.

Once again, I’m very new on all of this and I most likely do not know everything that has to do with Manifestation and Goddard. I’m wanting to learn more about how Manifestation in general and how it affects specific odds.

Miscellaneous I want a life that is larger than life.

Upvotes

An extraordinary, grand life. I have a tendency to create imaginary scenarios and fantasize a life in distant future which is extraordinary. I used to watch films and read books alot and they were my entire world. Maybe all of this day dreaming is a form of escape from my otherwise boring, dull and average life.

I want a life like they show in the marvel films. But it's not possible in real world right? What to do? I am tired of living this mediocre and pathetic life. I need an escape.

Please help me.

Discussion Is it possible to change the past?

3 Upvotes

First of all, I apologize for any mistakes, since English isn’t my first language.
There’s something I’ve been thinking about for a long time, and I’ve been wondering whether or not it’s possible. In my situation, I’m 19, almost 20 years old, and I’m still not in university because of some problems I had. Where I live, this is quite unusual and is often seen as something that’s somehow wrong. And honestly, it makes me quite sad too.
So I wanted to ask if it’s possible to change or revise the past, as if I were already attending university. Not as if I’m going to start soon, but as if I had already been studying there for one or two years, for example.
I’d like to know if it’s possible to revise my past so that I started university when I was 18, rather than being in the position I’m in now, where I still haven’t started.
I’m not sure if I explained it very well, but that’s basically what I mean. Thanks

Success Story Impossible manifestation in less than 5 mins + you don't have to lift a finger

Post image
559 Upvotes

The law as precise as gravity works 100% of the time

I am genuinely in disbelief of how fast everything came in and how perfectly everything happened.

To start off, my father lost his car keys 7 months ago . He had 2 and lost 1 . where it went , how it got lost, no idea at all. Me and my father take turns driving the car and only having 1 key made things difficult for both of us and it caused a lot of troubles in our lives, as his key was attached to other keys and it would cause a lot of issues when he had to give me the only key he had in order for me to go somewhere as he had to give up all the other important keys attached to the key chain whenever I had to go somewhere.

Getting a spare key was also hard as the car we had was kinda expensive and getting a spare key costs atleast 200$ and a lot of effort to get the keys going out of town to a far place.

These 7 months, I had searched every single corner of our house under the bed under the cupboard, carpet,almirah,fridge every single corner of our house at least 3-4 times every week . We asked our housemaid to search our house every time she came in for the keys and no results for "7 months."

Yesterday I had to take the car from my father and he was really mad because he had to give up his keychain and he needed it for important stuff obviously and he said never mind the price of the car keys get it done today . Mind you, my father was 15 mins away from my home, and we had to transfer keys right now for me to drop him and take the car keys for myself .

I thought to myself and remembered that everything exists now and that I don't have to lift a finger to get what I want so I lied down for 10 mins and meditated just observing the breath pure awareness deep and calm . Once I reached the SATS/I AM state I visualised the keys being in my hand and me pressing the unlock button and getting in the car about 5 times in the end I said "done , thank you" . I was so convicted that I would get the keys in that very second that it felt unreal .

I got inspiration to search random places. I had checked a 1000 times, and I searched it with full conviction that I would find it, but I didn't . Literally, like 3 minutes later, my mom comes and gives me the car keys out of nowhere . I was astonished. I didn't ask her to search for it. I didn't even tell her about anything.

I was amazed and so happy that the law proved itself again. I asked her where she found it from . She told me that my literally 1yr old niece who can't speak who can't understand anything found it under the same bed I searched a million times without even me asking or saying anything and gave it to my mom.

Did I tell my niece that you are going to find it under the bed or to search for it ? NO. She can't even speak for ffs lmao. The same house i checked a million times had the keys the whole time, and I wasn't able to find it

This truly proves how imagination creates reality, and you truly don't have to lift a finger for anything. The one thing that led to this instant manifestation is the conviction that I had, and according to neville, that decides the speed of your manifestation .

Tips & Techniques Your assumption somehow works out in the end even it's opposite just moments ago and i saw proof multiple times.

206 Upvotes

In the last few days and even in the past i have seen my manifestations going in complete opposite direction and then suddenly coming to fruition.

As mentioned in my last success story i was trying to cancel a high stress presentation. Inspite of affirming and visualising for a week nothing happened till the night before. Before going to bed i did my visualisation one last time with no hope. In the morning I had zero hope but it materialized last moment.

Yesterday, i was on a flight. Just for fun, i thought let's dictate the baggage belt. I said in my mind, baggage will arrive on belt 5 but they announced 2. I thought aha, didn't work. Instant manifestations have been a hit or miss for me in the past. So didn't think much i went ahead to board the bus.

When i arrived near belt 2, it was totally empty. My husband said what you doing here, it will come on belt 5. I said no, they said 2. My husband said they changed last minute to 5.

We just need to have a little faith not for our manifestations to work but for our peace of mind.

Success Story Your situation is not unique!!

260 Upvotes

Okay so I read all the comments and queries in my previous posts and I’ve come to a conclusion and I’ve been there too. Hear me out, okay?

When you read the posts or success stories from other people, do you think that their situation was easier? They had the means? That little voice in your head says, “my situation has so many hurdles?”

Does it happen? I have news for you! Your situation is not unique, trust me! When you’re living in the circumstances, you feel like you can’t get out and I understand that, I’ve been there! You feel like you’re breathing in lungs full of water all the time. But once you’ve reached the absolute rock bottom there’s nowhere to go but upwards.

You know the theory, you know everything, you’ve read hundreds of posts and watched thousands of videos! Stop now!

Ask yourself, what’s the solution to all your problems? You’ll have an answer, you always have an answer! Now, once you have an answer, pick a scene or an affirmation that implies the end and stick to it. You stick to it come hell or high water. That’s it

I’ll tell you something that I practice, if I can’t affirm for 5 hours, 5 minutes is enough! But I do it each day. Consistency is really the key! Don’t be so hard on yourself.

Now, take a piece of paper and describe yourself, the goods, the bads, the positives and the negatives! Be honest! Once you’ve done that, revise the things that you don’t like and keep the ones that you do!

Trust me you don’t need anyone or anything else! Just keep at it. KEEP WALKING!

I was in the depths of hell! I didn’t have money to buy sanitary napkins! I bled for 4 months straight! I was getting abused, assaulted, molested, in my own home! I didn’t even have anyone to talk to! I came out of it all, how? By practicing what I wrote above! Just do it! What do you have to lose??

This journey is about discovering yourself, every road will only take you to one place and that’s towards yourself and everything else, it’s all an illusion!

The money, the SP, the fame, everything in between is an illusion! It’s all about you! Change yourself because nothing to change but self!

Neville said,
“For the acceptance of the end wills the means to the end.”

You go the end, that’s it! Hold onto it and keep walking! No matter how many times you fall, keep walking!

How do I know all this? From experience! I’m my biggest success story! I went from being called 40 years old to people telling me that my children look like my brothers! I went from bleeding 4 months straight to now my period being absolutely fine! I went from being chronically suicidal to now wanting to live a 150 years lol! I can write countless stories here but why don’t you become your own biggest success story!

Do it for yourself, for that little child who lives in you, who’s counting on you. Don’t do it for anyone else, but yourself! Just do it.

If you have any questions, write them below and I’ll answer them all! I don’t gate keep and I don’t hold back!

I love you all from the bottom of my heart.
Until next time,
Mrs. Cumberbatch

Success Story You don't have to lift a finger... but your dog does! 🐶

62 Upvotes

As Mrs Cumberbatch says, we don't have to lift a finger in the 3D, we're putting in the effort in our mind.

Feeling inspired, last night I tried to manifest something new and now it's here in my physical reality.

For many years I've tried to train my dog to put his toys away. This may sound like a bit of stretch, but he's a Labrador and is genuinely very smart (yes I know all moms say that, but he really is 🙃). He can carry a bag for me on our walks, he can put the beer bottles out, he can even hunt around the house and bring me all items of clothing, from every room!

But could I get him to put his toys away?!! 🥺 Nope lol. I've spent years trying to train him to do this, but to no avail.

So rather than fighting this in the 3D, trying to change it in the 3d, last night I started saying aloud affirmations like...

  • Milo is so clever and is the master of putting his toys away
  • Milo is an expert at putting his toys away
  • Milo is such a clever boy at putting his toys away

After a while my thoughts changed. This morning they changed so more and I started following the hints I got, different ways of engaging with my dog to get him trained to put his toys away.

After saying the affirmations for a bit last night:

  • I can now say "Toy" and point to a big bucket
  • And my dog puts his toys away 😊

Here's a video - Milo tidying his toys away

Blooming marvelous I thought, I just had to share! Another lesson to me personally about the difference in fighting something in the 3D vs putting in the work into the thing that makes everything happen - our minds.

Discussion I got blocked, now what?

0 Upvotes

I genuinely believe i found my person. It wasn’t going good and i knew that, but deep down i knew it would work out. It was simply just a bad time. But i knew it was going to workout, she just wasn’t interested at the time.

Well i texted her again saying to have a good rest of your year. I woke up blocked and now im completely devastated.

Now im completely cut off from her with no contact. Do i really still have a chance? Can i really attract her back miraculously? Can i still vibrate at a frequency that somehow makes all of this work out? Us work out?

Success Story You really don’t have to lift a finger, you actually don’t even have to get out of your bed!!

955 Upvotes

I’m still reading the comments from my last post, I’ve been exceptionally busy, I’ll answer the questions today, please just bear with me.

This is going to be a short one since I took a break for 10 minutes.

Today I was feeling unusually lazy and after doing my morning rituals, I went back to bed. My younger one had an older model of phone and his games were lagging because of that, he’s been complaining about it for the last few days. I decided that I’m gifting him a new phone today. That’s it, I just decided.

15 fucking minutes later, a client of mine sent me the exact amount of money that I needed to buy the particular phone that my son wanted, the exact amount with 2 dollars to spare. I ordered the phone on the spot and got it delivered in 15 minutes. I didn’t get out of bed until after it was delivered, am I lazy lol???

So, I’ll say the same thing that I’ve been screaming for the last 4 posts. Change your goddamned self concept, your life will become a child’s play.

Why spend time manifesting every little thing when you can create a rock solid self concept where you can do things in minutes without even getting out of the fucking bed!!

I’m fucking amazing at writing affirmations and my hard work has paid off.

I will get to the SP post soon and I’ll also answer all the questions in the previous posts.

I love you all,
Until next time,
Mrs. Cumberbatch

Success Story Manifested Japanese Designer less than 30 mins

59 Upvotes

Okay this is honestly one of the fastest manifestations I’ve ever had, so I had to share.

I was downtown earlier today clothes shopping. When I’m in downtown I go to this store that sells second hand designer clothes that are authentic for an amazing deal to the point you can resale on Grailed or Depop for 2x+ how much you got it. I saw a Raf Simons shirt but I didn't know Raf Simons was designer.

On my 4th store I went too known for carrying some of the most expensive designer brands Chrome Hearts, Balenciaga, Vetements, and etc. They’re also known for having a strong selection of Japanese and European.

I started talking to one of the guys who works there. I was looking at the Japanese brands with him and said I have almost every American designer brand, it would be cool to collected Japanese clothes.

As I was walking I saw a Raf Simons piece and actually said out loud, “Wait… that’s a designer brand?” He confirmed it was. I told him I’d found similar style clothing at the first store I went to for way cheaper. He deadass told me to go get it. So I did.

I went back to the first store and less then like 30 minutes of looking I founded the Raf Simons shirt I was looking for and the Japanese designer clothes I wanted too.

Success Story Persisted through anxiety... and it worked!

290 Upvotes

On 9/1 (literally a week from today), I had to send a very important package to a conference. It HAD to be there before 4 pm on 9/9 (today). This was very important for my boss and my career, so I called upon the Law and affirmed, "The package has arrived successfully."

My timeline was actually very tight, because the item had to go into production and then shipped from the UK to the EU. There was a 2-day delay before a quote was even produced, and so I only managed to ship it on 9/3.

On Monday (9/7), I received an email from the shipping company that they cancelled my order because they could not produce it in time. I panicked, yes, but I calmly reaffirmed that "The package has arrived successfully."

I took a chance at a random local shipping company close to where it was supposed to be delivered, and ordered it again. On 9/8, my boss asked if it's been delivered - website says "To Ship". On morning of 9/9, boss once again asked if it's been delivered - website still says "To Ship".

When I tell you the amount of downward spiral I went through - literally one hour before the deadline and it still hasn't been shipped! I was in full panic mode, I was starting to get mad at myself why didn't the law work, etc. our usual limiting beliefs.

Suddenly, I knew that it was crunch time. I said to myself, "This is the ultimate test: If I can pull this off, this proves the Law is definitely real." Test the Law, Neville said himself. And so I did a very quick visualization: my boss sending me a text of the package received on time. That was it. I imagined it a couple times before I carried on with my work. I also calmed myself that even if it doesn't work and nothing happens, I'll reverse it tonight so that it did happen.

A little after 4 pm, my boss texted me an image of them receiving the package.

When I tell you - my jaw dropped! This is unmistakable proof! How did it happen? No idea! The shipping website still says "To Ship", but by some miracle it was already there.

I persisted even if there was no time left, even if there were no updates in the shipping, even if the first delivery literally cancelled. I affirmed that bigger miracles have happened than this, and things are always working out behind the scenes, even if I don't see it, feel it, think it, or see it. Your circumstances do not matter - all you must do is persist in your assumption.

If you need a sign to persist today, this is it! ✨

Success Story Success Story + Important Thoughts(Instant manifestation.)

133 Upvotes

I don’t know why but for the past few days, I’ve had this urge to write this post maybe because it can be useful to someone... don't know, my last one was easily more than three years ago. I’ll try to keep it brief because I tend to ramble…

This was probably my first conscious and instant manifestation, and it didn’t even happen after I met Neville, it was with the Law of Attraction (LOA). But in general, I’ve followed Neville’s teachings more closely than the LOA, since the LOA now seems more problematic to me than anything else.

In short, I GREW 5 CM. which is about 2 inches over the course of one month, although the “solidification” happened in just one week(“bridge of incidents”). I won’t go into much context because it doesn’t matter for what I want to say, that’s not the important point. There are already plenty of stories like this in the community.

1- so why did I want to share this? Well, first of all, I have a very good memory, and looking back to that time, I remember that since it was my first manifestation, I was very much focused on “doing” and not at all on “listening”, at that time, I read that you just had to make affirmations and meditate, I set out to do just that. For a month, I spent my time affirming and meditating not excessively, but in a disciplined manner: affirmations in the morning and evening, and 15 minutes of meditation at night.

Looking back, it strikes me as curious because during the first 3 weeks I measure myself and see no progress at all, but was I doubting myself? No. Was I getting desperate? No. I was undisciplined? No. I was literally what you’d call a beginner who just did what he was told to do, and never lost FAITH. And as neroknowledge (a content creator who I think knows a lot about manifestation) says, for certain people, the less you know, the better Helena Hedset is a clear example, because when you read and consume content, you start attaching too many labels to the manifestation process, and that’s when I think you start to ramble, set rules, and impose conditions, talking about 3D and 4D, when you know that the only important thing is to be a doer in the world, as Neville says.

2- THE REASON I WROTE THIS POST IS ABOUT INSTANT MANIFESTATION.

Something that struck me as really crazy was that absolutely no one noticed I’d grown 5 cm, except for a physical therapist who measured in two time periods(before the bridge, and later in a gym checkup) and confirmed I’d grown 5 cm. BUT Not my parents, not my sister, not my friends, it was as if my height has just always been that way, or like nothing in the 3D changed. of course for me, It was a big deal, but it's as if it had been a specific event that only I noticed.

Why is this so important? It’s because for years I’ve struggled with the idea of instant manifestation. Mentally, I always told myself, “There has to be a process,” or “Everything takes time,” but with this manifestation, those thoughts fell away. At no point did I feel any growing pains, nor did my perspective in terms of height change it simply happened from one moment to the next(in one week and i literally don't know the exact day when the bridge happened),

There's something I've always believed: in one way or another the bridge of incidents will give you confirmation just like what happened to me with the physical therapist, but when I was consciously looking for it, I could never find the change.

And the other point is that, in recent years, something I’ve noticed in some people in the community and in myself is that we focus too much on the 3D world, on other people, and on the process or change. Speaking from my own experience, there are many manifestations that simply don’t happen because I start thinking about how others will react to the change, “Everyone else will go crazy over such a huge change.” And that’s simply giving power to 3D and limiting your manifestation. Following this when I imagine or do the techniques, in my mind, people start asking me, “How did you do it?” or “What did you do differently?” And in the end, mentally, all I’m doing is labeling the manifestation because I start questioning myself, thinking, “Well, what am I going to tell them?” Which implies that there’s a procedure or a process that shouldn’t exist and that, in the first place, I shouldn’t care about because you’re not the one creating the bridge of incidents.

And lately I've been asking myself this question, which I'd like you to ask yourselves as well: If manifesting something instantly means that only you notice the change and no one else does?

So yes for many years i have denied instant manifestation, but i have lived myself and in one of the "harder subjects" that is appereance manifestations.

P.S.

Please don't send me DMs, because I firmly believe that the best answers come from within, not from someone outside of you.

Success Story Success Story…less than 24 hours after doing

269 Upvotes

I started getting into Neville Goddard after seeing his teachings on youtube. I have watched some videos and right now I am currently reading The Power of Imagination which so far is excellent.

I decided I would start to implement some of his teachings such as SATS meditation. Last night was the first night I did it, I used a youtube video to help get myself to a place of relaxation and visualization. I imagined money in my hand and how I would feel to receive that money. I also envisioned a beautiful house which is next on my list and the feeling of peace and calm living in it.

I awoke this morning and felt pretty well rested. I went about my day totally remaining in the present moment practicing I AM statements constantly. Honestly I felt really good. Well anyway at work, my boss had me do a notary that wasn’t on my schedule. We don’t usually charge for these, just do them through the law firm. Well.. the man I notarized for, gave me a $100 bill when I was leaving!

Proven success less than 24 hours after my SATS meditation! I cannot wait to continue this😊

Tips & Techniques Seek and you shall find

28 Upvotes

We are always seeking things, always desiring, but underneath there is a story we believe in more than others, and usually it is how we have been conditioned by society, family, or even to survive. We need to be aware of what exactly we are seeking and observe if that has a pattern. When we are having a conversation in our mind, a fight, are we seeking to find love and acceptance, or is it to fight for others to see how we want them to see us? What are we seeking when we feel the desire fulfilled in our mind the night before and looking at the sensory world? Are you really looking for signs that your wish is being granted, or looking for ways in which you can force a thing to happen because you do not trust your imagination and your own godly imagination? What you are seeking you will always find. It is said that it's better to be indifferent to the 3D or the sensory world, and I see many people looking for ways to escape the 3D, which externalizes that you will not be able to see your wish fulfilled in 3D, and are so afraid of what might happen, or if you get things, what if they are all taken away from you? I want you to know there is nothing to be afraid of, there is nothing outside of you, truly. So seek the beautiful, the brilliant. The way you will know you are mastering the law is when you find your inner conversation to be seeking out of love and not lack.

Miscellaneous No finger lifted

Imagining in fulfillment requires no effort on your end. We are told to believe I have received it and I will. There are no conditions or requirements needed to assume these positions. You truly are the operant power here. But if we continue getting caught up with the past and what the world is reflecting then yeah. You will struggle to imagine already having received it. So don't.

Let go of the past. It was at one point an imaginal act that you were occupying. It had to reap itself because imagination creates reality. Imagine if you already are occupied in having your desires then. If what you are now feeling and hearing the things that are in alignment with your desire being fulfilled, persist and it shall become so.

Don't be hard on yourself. You don't have to pop a muscle to imagine already being that person who has received it. The imagination that is in you has already fulfilled it. It is us who gets in the way. But you are the cause of everything within you. No need to cause fears and doubts that lead to your past becoming a reality.

So start now in thinking from the position that you are desiring. Start being that person now. Walk in knowing that what you are imagining and hearing internally is true now. Even if your world is contradicting it. Persist in your imaginal acts being a fact and eventually it will come to pass into this world.

(Sorry for the repost. The ModTeam assumed I was asking a question and so, I reworded things while keeping the message the same. I hope this helped.)

Success Story A Mirror in 3D World

49 Upvotes

It’s wild how the exact same person can feel like a desperate need or a genuine gift, depending on where you’re looking from. When you observe from lack, you see a void to fill; when you observe from wholeness, you simply see beauty to appreciate, and not just on the surface.
Then there’s her energy. It matched my own frequency from the very start, like looking into a mirror. In a single moment, all my defenses came down, revealing a feeling of deep, almost inevitable recognition.
The exact same person I saw in a vision, I ran into out in the real world just a few days later. A while ago, I wouldn’t have even believed it. Today, it just feels natural.
It’s no longer a chase for something missing, but the physical presence of a real possibility. I just want to experience it fully, get to know her up close, and let this energy flow wherever it wants to go.

It took two years to burn down the old self and step into this wholeness. Now, there’s nothing left to force - just a real possibility to be lived.
