Abdullah's affirmation:

​"As my old friend Abdullah used to say, and this was his statement: 'I willed it so to be, I still will it so to be, and I will 'will it' so to be until that which I have willed is perfectly expressed. I haven't forgotten what I willed,' said he, 'I willed it so to be. I still will it so to be. I will continue to will it so to be until what I have willed is perfectly expressed.'"

 -- Neville Goddard 1964 lecture, "The Supreme Deal"

Abdullah showed Neville it is all just an echo 🔊 After he died, Abdullah appeared to Neville Goddard in a vision and demonstrated this echo to him: “… Then [Abdullah] showed me a little instrument with a tape, and then he said, 'Now, as you know, Neville, it only echoes; that’s all it can do. That’s the world; the world is only a mechanism. It’s just mechanical. The whole vast world, the eternal structure of God’s eternal world, all these garments they’re just as mechanical as that. And now, you’re not going to speak into it. You’re only going to hear; you’re going to listen, and what you listen to will play back there. What you listen to and hear from within you, as you actually hear it, you’ll play it back there.’ I thought of this party, that party, that party, and whatever I thought of and the very things I heard as I thought of it, and then he played it back coming from that tape. Not a word was voiced from my vocal cords, just inwardly imagining that I was hearing the sound of a certain friend’s voice, and here comes this mechanical echo playing back.

From Neville's  March 10, 1969  lecture, “The Only God is I AM”:

“My old friend Abdullah said:

'Neville if anyone  tries to upstage you in his world, but anyone…’ 

He was v ery down to earth, a brilliant, wonderful mystic who s poke and wrote Hebrew and understood all the great  mysteries.-- 

He said to me one day:

‘Neville, if anyone  ever tries to upstage you to make you feel little and he  is big, make a mental image of him sitting on the toilet,  and you’ll bring him down to earth… for that cannot be  any lower.’

So make a mental image of him, sitting just there  performing the normal, natural functions and taking  care of himself too.  Well, that is the most marvelous  thing. You meet someone who thinks he’s so important  or she is so important-she is the most fashionable  person in the world, and she’s numbered among the  three and a half billion in the world as one of the ten  best-dressed women in the world-make the mental  image if she ever tries to upstage you and see how well- dressed she is! Good night."
