Neville Goddard: "Freedom for All" (1942) [FULL BOOK]

Content

Consciousness as the only reality

Public opinion will not long endure a theory that does not work in practice. Today, perhaps more than ever before, man demands proof of the truth of even his highest ideal. For ultimate satisfaction, man simply seeks a principle that is for him a way of life—a principle that he can accept as true.

Discovery of the Principle

I believe I have discovered just such a principle in the greatest of all scriptures— Bibles. Through my own mystical enlightenment, this book reveals the truth hidden in both the Old and New Testament stories.

Key thesis

Consciousness is the only reality. Consciousness is the cause, and manifestation is the effect.

This fact constantly attracts the reader's attention: he can and should always keep "first things first.".

The Path to Change

Having laid the foundation that a change in consciousness is necessary For any change in external expression, this work explains to the reader a dozen different ways to achieve such an internal transformation.

Conclusion

It is a realistic and constructive principle that works. The revelation it contains, if applied, will set you free.

— Neville Goddard

THE UNITY OF GOD

The basis of being

“HEAR, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.”

Hear, O Israel: Hear, O man, created from the very essence of God: You and God are one and undivided! Man, the world, and all in it are conditioned states of the unconditional, God. You are this; you are God, raised as man.

Whatever you believe about God, you are. But you will never know it is true until you stop looking for confirmation from someone else and admit that this supposed “other” is you.

God and man, spirit and matter, formless and formed, creator and creation, cause and effect, your Father and you are one. This in whom all conditioned states live and move is your “I AM,” your unconditioned consciousness.

The nature of consciousness

Unconditioned consciousness is God, the one and only reality. By unconditioned consciousness is meant the feeling of awareness; the feeling of awareness that “I AM”, besides, who I am; the consciousness of being, separate from what I perceive as existing.

I AM AWARE that I am a man, but I do not need to be a man to be aware that I am. Before I was aware that I am someone, I was—as unconditioned awareness—aware of being, and this awareness does not depend on whether I am someone else. I AM self-existent, unconditioned consciousness. I have been aware of myself as someone else; and I will be aware of myself as someone else; but I am Eternally aware whether I am unconditioned formlessness or conditioned form.

As a conditioned state, I (a person) can forget who I am and where I am, but I cannot forget that I AM. This awareness that I AM, this awareness of being, is the only reality. This unconditioned consciousness, I AM, is that cognitive reality in which all conditioned states (self-conceptions) begin and end, but which remains unknown to the knower when all that is known ceases to exist.

The world is like a mirror

Everything I have ever believed myself to be, everything I now believe, and everything I will ever believe myself to be are only attempts to know myself, an unknown, indeterminate reality.

This unknown knowing consciousness is my true essence. I AM the unconditioned reality conditioned by what I believe myself to be. The world is my conditioned consciousness, objectified. What I feel and believe to be true about myself is now projected into space as my world. The world—my mirror self—always testifies to the state of consciousness in which I live.

The law of cause and effect

There is no accident or misfortune responsible for what happens to me. And predestined fate is not the author of my successes or failures. Innocence and guilt are only words that have no meaning for the law of consciousness, except that they reflect the state of consciousness itself.

The consciousness of guilt brings condemnation. The consciousness of lack brings poverty. Man is forever embodying the state of consciousness in which he is, but somehow he has become confused in the interpretation of the law of cause and effect. He has forgotten that it is the inner state that causes the outer manifestation—«As within, so without.» In his forgetfulness he believes that an external God has reasons for actions that are incomprehensible to man; or he believes that he is suffering because of past mistakes; or that blind chance plays the part of God.

One day, a person will realize that his own "I AM" is the God he has been searching for for centuries, and that his own sense of awareness—his consciousness of being—is the only reality.

The hardest thing for a person to truly understand is this: that "I AM" within him is God. This is his true being or Father state, the only state in which he can be sure. The Son - his idea of himself - is an illusion. He always knows that he є, but that, by whom she is an illusion created by herself (the Father) in an attempt at self-determination.

The Revelation of “I AM”

This discovery shows that everything I have thought of as God, I AM. «I AM the resurrection and the life» is a statement of fact about my consciousness, for my consciousness resurrects or makes visible what I am conscious of.

«I AM the door… all that came before Me are thieves and robbers.» This shows me that my consciousness is the only entrance into the world of expression. Accepting the consciousness of being or possessing what I desire to be is the only way I can become that.

«"I AM the beginning and the end" - my consciousness is the cause of the birth and death of any expression. "I AM sent Me" - my consciousness as the Lord sends me into the world in the image and likeness of the one I realize myself to be.

Defining God through oneself

«I AM the Lord, and there is no God beside Me» — my consciousness is the only Lord. «BE still and know that I AM God» means that I must still the mind and know that consciousness is God.

«"Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain." Now that you have discovered your "I AM" as God, do not claim about yourself that which you would not claim about God, for in defining yourself you define God. What you are conscious of is what you have called God.

Your unconditioned consciousness and that which you are conscious of are one. The thinker and the conception are one. If your idea of yourself is less than what you claim to be true of God, you have robbed God, the Father. Do not take the magic name of God, I AM, in vain, for you will be forced to express all that you call yourself. Define yourself by your highest ideal.

THE NAME OF GOD

Consciousness as the basis of being

It cannot be asserted too often that consciousness is the only and unique reality, for it is this truth that liberates man. It is the foundation on which the entire structure of biblical literature is based.

The stories of the Bible are mystical revelations, written in Eastern symbolism, which reveal to the intuitive the secret of creation and the formula for liberation. The Bible is man's attempt to express in language the cause and method of creation. Man discovered that his consciousness is the creator of his world, so he set forth the story of creation in a series of symbolic plots.

Features of Eastern symbolism

To understand this most remarkable book, one needs intuition sufficient to interpret what is read. The Bible is written symbolically, because the language of the East differs significantly from the Western one in terms of expression techniques:

  • Example with hands: The saying, «If your hand offends you, cut it off» does not refer to the physical body, but to the rejection of any form of self-expression that causes harm.
  • Example with a rock: For a Western person, "being on the rocks" means bankruptcy, while for an Eastern person, a rock is a symbol of faith, security, and a solid foundation.

Biologically, there is no difference in feelings (love, hate, ambition) between East and West, but the symbolism and metaphors are very different.

The Mystery of the Name Jehovah (JOD HE VAU HE)

The first step to unlocking the mysteries of the Bible is to understand the meaning of the creator's name— Jehovah. This word consists of four Hebrew letters, in which the entire mechanics of creation are hidden:

1. JOD (I AM)

It means the absolute state, unconditioned consciousness, or the feeling of indefinite awareness. It is the all-encompassingness from which all conditioned states originate.

2. HE (Idea/Son)

Symbolizes the "only begotten Son", a desire or mental state. It is a clear mental picture or idea that you want to embody.

3. VAU (Deed of Association)

Symbolizes the process of joining consciousness (JOD) to the desired state (HE). This is the ability to feel and believe in the reality of what has not yet manifested. To believe is to live in the feeling that you are already in the imagined state.

4. Second HE (Objectification)

It signifies the outward manifestation of this inner agreement. The world is the "Son" who testifies to the state of the "Father" (your consciousness). The visible world cannot do anything by itself; it only reflects the subjective state of JOD HE VAU.

The formula of creation

The process of creating anything in your life looks like this:

  1. JOD: You are simply aware of your existence.
  2. HE: You are aware of something specific (a desire).
  3. VAU: You become conscious. that, that you are already this desired state (belief/feeling).
  4. HE: You objectively see the result in your world.

«"Let us create man in our image." This means: let the subjective state (JOD HE VAU) create the objective manifestation (HE) as its copy. The world is the objectified likeness of your inner state. This understanding is the key to liberation from your own unwanted creations.

LAW OF CREATION

Biblical Symbolism and the Story of Noah

Let's look at one of the biblical stories and see how the prophets and writers of ancient times revealed the process of creation through oriental symbolism. We all know the story of Noah and the Ark: Noah was chosen to create a new world after the old world was destroyed by the flood. According to the Bible, Noah had three sons: Shem (Shem), Boor і Japheth.

Decoding of names: Formula JOD HE VAU HE

These three sons, together with their father Noah, form the same magical formula of creation contained in the divine name JOD HE VAU HE:

  1. Noah (Father)
    • Value: The dreamer, the builder of a new world.
    • Conformity: Equivalent JOD — unconditional consciousness, your "I AM.".
  2. Shem (Shem)
    • Value: «"Name." This is your goal, purpose, or idea.
    • Conformity: The second letter of the divine name is HE (first).
  3. Boor
    • Value: «"Warm", "alive". This is a state of feeling that unites consciousness with desire.
    • Conformity: The third letter of the divine name is VAU (act of connection).
  4. Japheth
    • Value: «"Expansion", "continuation". This is an objectified state, a visible result.
    • Conformity: The last letter of the divine name is HE (second).

The role of each "son" in your life

You are yourself. Noah — the creator of your world. The process of realizing your desire goes through the following stages:

  • Birth of a Sim (Ideas): The first thing you create is a name or a defined goal.
  • Ham's Secret (Feeling): This is the secret of the "Father" (your "I AM"). It is through feeling that your consciousness connects with the desired object. This is the "mystical marriage" between Noah (consciousness) and Shem (desire). Feeling actualizes the state, making it alive.
  • The Appearance of Japheth (Manifestation): This is your outer world, proof that you possess the secret of creation. Ham automatically «serves» Japheth, because without inner feeling (impression) there can be no outer expression.

Practical application of the Law

The secret of creation lies in the ability to experience the invisible as already existing. As it is said: «"And God calls that which is not as though it were"».

Algorithm of actions:

  1. Realize yourself as Noah: You are a creative consciousness.
  2. Identify your Sim: Name a clear goal or thing you want to have.
  3. Become wise like Ham: Close your eyes and feel that you already have it. Don't ask "how" - just adopt the mental attitude of someone who already has what you want.
  4. Wait for Japheth: Your feeling will inevitably embody the word or name into material form.

Feeling is the secret of creation. Use this law to experience the joy of seeing your dreams come true.

THE SECRET OF FEELINGS

Bible Story: Isaac and His Sons

The mystery of feelings or the calling of the invisible to visible states is beautifully told in the story of Isaac blessing his second son Jacob with faith based solely on feelings, as he blesses his first son Esau.

It is recorded that Isaac, who was old and blind, felt that he was about to leave this world, and, wishing to bless his firstborn son Esau before his death, sent him on a hunt for delicious venison with the promise that upon his return from the hunt he would receive his father's blessing.

Now Jacob, who desired the birthright through his father's blessing, overheard his blind father's request for venison and the promise to Esau. So when Esau went hunting for venison, Jacob killed and dressed a kid from his father's flock. Putting the skin on his smooth body to feel like Esau's hairy and rough brother, he brought the deliciously prepared boy to his blind father Isaac.

And Isaac, who relied only on his feelings, confused his second son Jacob with his first son Esau and declared the blessing of Jacob. After returning from the hunt, Esau learned that his smooth-skinned brother Jacob had replaced him, so he turned to his father with a request for justice; but Isaac replied:

«"Your brother came with cunning and took away your blessing. I made him your Lord, and all his brothers I gave to him as servants."»

Psychological interpretation of symbols

Simple human decency should tell a person that this story cannot be taken literally. There must be a message for a person hidden somewhere in this treacherous and disgusting act of Jacob! The hidden message, the formula for success hidden in this story, was intuitively revealed to the writer in this way.

  • Isaac (Blind Father): This is your consciousness; your awareness of being.
  • Esau (Hairy Son): This is your present objectified world: gross or intelligently felt; the present moment; the present environment; your present self-concept. In short, the world that you know through your objective senses.
  • Jacob (Smooth-skinned son): It is your desire or subjective state, an idea that has not yet been realized; a point in time and space, distant from the present. Jacob is your defined goal.

When the smooth-skinned Jacob (subjective state) is correctly experienced by the father (consciousness) as reality, he becomes objectified and displaces the rough, hairy Esau (former state). Two things cannot occupy a definite place at the same time.

Blessing mechanics

Your consciousness is the cause of your world. The state of consciousness you are in determines the type of world you live in.

Always remember that Isaac was blind. He didn't see Jacob, he felt him:

“Come closer, my son, so I can feel you.”

You do not see your desire objectively; you simply feel it subjectively. Like Isaac, you sit quietly and send your first son (the objective world) on a hunt, distracting yourself. Then you invite the desired state, your second son Jacob, to come closer. First, you become aware of it in your immediate surroundings; then you draw it closer and closer until you feel it in your immediate presence as real and natural.

“If two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.”

The two who agree are Isaac and Jacob (you and what you desire). Isaac's secret is to mentally separate tangibly tangible (your current physical condition) from imperceptibly tangible (what you would like to be).

Practical application method (3 steps)

First: Suspension

Send your first son Esau—your current objectified world or problem—on a hunt. This is accomplished simply by closing your eyes and diverting your attention from limitations.

Second: Fixation of Time and Space

Consciously determine the natural time and place for fulfilling your desire.

  • Time: If it's Sunday, start feeling the silence and naturalness of Sunday right now. Create a subjective reality of this time.
  • Space: If the desired thing is somewhere else, feel yourself there. You are not making a mental journey; you are destroying space. Create a «presence» – a «hereness.».

Third: The Embodiment of Desire

In the absence of Esau (problem), invite Jacob (solution).

  • Imagine or think about what you want.
  • Mentally bring him closer: “Come closer so I can feel you.”
  • Feel its strength, its reality, and the excitement of ownership in the room where you sit.

Result: Return of Esau

Now open your eyes. This brings you back to the objective world. Your hairy son Esau has returned and says you have been betrayed. But like Isaac, you will say:

«"I have made him your Lord, and all his brothers I have given to him as servants.".

You have established a psychological state that objectifies itself by fulfilling the name of Jacob—the substitute.

Practical exercises

  1. Creating a thing: Imagine a piece of furniture in an empty corner of a room. Feel it there until a wave of “obsession” with that reality arises.
  2. Creating a place: Sitting in New York, feel like you're on a liner in the Atlantic. Look back at your New York apartment as a memory. If you can do that, you've prepared the place.
  3. Creating time: Let go of the present moment and experience the reality of the time (day or year) you are seeking to experience.

Knowing your power to bless, you can open the door to any prison—the prison of illness, poverty, or everyday existence.

SHEBAB: THE SECRET OF MENTAL PEACE

“Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day shall be a holy day to you, a sabbath of rest to the Lord” (Exodus 31:15, 32:5, Leviticus 23:3)

The Psychological Significance of the Six Days

These six days are not twenty-four-minute periods. They symbolize a psychological moment when a certain subjective state is recorded.

  • Subjective work: These six days of work are subjective experiences. They cannot be measured in terms of sidereal time, because the real work of fixing a certain psychological state is done in consciousness.
  • Time measurement: The time spent consciously defining yourself as who you aspire to be is the measure of these six days. The shift in consciousness is the work accomplished in these six creative days.
  • Result: Psychological correction is measured not by the time spent on correction, but by the completion of this interval (the achievement of the state).

The mystery of the letter VAU

The true meaning of the six days of work (creation) is revealed in secret VAU — the sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet and the third letter in the divine name JOD HE VAU HE.

  • VAU function: Means «to nail» or «to join.» The creator is connected to his creation through feeling.
  • Six days as joining: Mentally separating oneself from the objective world and binding oneself through the secret of feelings to a subjective state is the function of VAU, or the six days of work. The time required to fix this feeling is the true measure of creation.

Shabbat as an incubation period

There is always an interval between a fixed impression (subjective state) and the external expression of that state. This interval is called Saturday.

  1. Mental rest: Saturday is a mental rest that follows a fixed psychological state; it is the result of your six days of work.
  2. Mental pregnancy: This rest is the incubation period of manifestation. “The Sabbath was made for man”—it was made for manifestation, not the other way around.
  3. Entry requirement: There can be no Sabbath, no period of mental rest, until the six days are over—until the psychological adjustment is made and the mental impression is fully created.

Consequences of Not Keeping the Sabbath

Man is warned: if he does not keep the Sabbath (does not enter into God's rest), he will not receive the promise—he will not fulfill his desires.

  • Reason: There can be no peace until a conscious impression is made. Unless a person has convinced himself that he already has what he desires, he continues to desire (to feel a lack), and therefore has no peace of mind.
  • The concept of sin: To sin is to fail to achieve the goal. If a person does not make a conscious impression, he is in a state where there is no peace. “If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin” - knowledge of possibilities imposes responsibility for their realization.

Cyclicality of Creation

When a conscious impression is made, it is automatically followed by Shabbat—the interval during which the word becomes flesh. But this is not the end:

  • The implementation of an idea disturbs the peace.
  • The person defines a different goal.
  • A new six days of work begin.

A person cannot find peace until he realizes his desire. To do this, he must become a “good spiritual shooter” — learn to let go of the objective state and adapt to the subjective.

The Drama of the Crucifixion and Resurrection

The story of the crucifixion beautifully dramatizes these psychological periods:

1. The choice between Barabbas and Jesus

  • Barabbas the robber: Your current self-image, which deprives you of what you would like to be (your current problem).
  • Jesus the Savior: Something that will save you from limitations (your desire/freedom).

2. The process of liberation

  • The release of Barabbas: You let go of the problem by distracting yourself from it.
  • The Crucifixion of the Savior (Sixth Day): This is a fixation of consciousness on the state of “I am free.” You deny the evidence of sensations and subjectively experience the joy of freedom. Before sunset, you must complete the fixation with the feeling: “It is all over.”.

3. Burial and Resurrection (Seventh and First Days)

  • Burial: You enter the Sabbath (mental peace) knowing that the subjective fixation will inevitably be resurrected.
  • Resurrection: The objective embodiment of your idea in the physical world.

Your consciousness is God, resting in the knowledge that “this is good” and “this is finished.” Your objective feelings will confirm this, for “the day will reveal it.”.

HEALING

The versatility of the formula

The formula for the cure of leprosy, as revealed in the fourteenth chapter of Leviticus, is most illuminating when viewed through the eyes of the mystic. This formula can be prescribed as a positive cure for any disease in the world of man—physical, mental, financial, social, moral—anything. It does not matter the nature of the disease or its duration, for the formula can be successfully applied to any of them.

Biblical text (Leviticus 14)

Here is the formula as it is recorded in the book of Leviticus:

“Then the priest shall command to take for him who is to be cleansed two live and clean birds… and the priest shall command to kill one of the birds….. And he shall take the live bird and dip it in the blood of the slain bird; and he shall sprinkle on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the live bird go free into the open field…. And he shall be clean.”

A literal application of this story would be foolish and useless, while a psychological application of the formula is wise and fruitful.

The Symbolism of the Two Birds

A bird is a symbol of an idea. Every person who has a problem or wants to express something other than what they are currently expressing can be someone who has two birds. These two birds or concepts can be defined as follows:

  • First Bird (Problem): This is your current self-image; the description you would give if you were asked to describe yourself—your physical condition, income, responsibilities, nationality, family, race, etc. Your honest answer to these questions will inevitably be based solely on the evidence of your feelings, not on any wishful thinking. This true self-image defines the first bird.
  • Second Bird (Decision): It is determined by the answer you would like to give to these self-definition questions. In short, these two birds are what you perceive yourself to be now and what you aspire to be.

Every problem has its solution. For sickness is health; for poverty is wealth; for weakness is strength; for imprisonment is freedom. Only the problem and the solution are considered.

Psychological drama of healing

You are a priest who is now performing a drama about the healing of a man from leprosy. You are a priest, and with this formula you are now free from your problem.

Step 1: Killing the First Bird (Dismissal)

First: Take one of the birds (your problem) and kill it, drawing its blood.

  • Blood is consciousness: «He has made from one blood every nation of men.» Your consciousness is the only reality that animates what you are aware of.
  • Mechanics: Distracting from a problem is like draining the blood from a bird. By distracting from any condition, you are draining the life force from that condition. You are killing your problem by distracting from it.

Step 2: Immersion of a live bird (Adoption of a new state)

Into this blood (your consciousness) you immerse a living bird (a decision). This you do by freeing yourself to be the desired state now.

  • Analogy with Isaac: You become blind to your problem (the first bird) because you have become distracted from it. Your attention (the blood) is now focused on the second bird (the subjective state), and you sense and experience its reality.

Step 3: Seven-time sprinkling (Fixation)

Seven times you are told to sprinkle the one that needs to be cleansed.

  • Value: This means that you must live in a new self-image until you enter the seventh day (Sabbath) in your mind; until your mind is calm or established in the belief that you are actually expressing or possessing what you aspire to be.
  • Result: When you completely convince yourself—you have symbolically sprinkled yourself seven times—then you are as free as a bird that has been released.

Conclusion: Incarnation

This story is a psychological play, dramatized in the human mind:

  • High Priest — your consciousness (I AM).
  • Leper — you with your problem.
  • Killed bird — your current limited view of yourself.
  • Live bird — a free decision that you release into the world.

You are recreating this great drama within yourself, taking your attention away from the problem and focusing it on what you want to express. Living in the awareness that you are now what you once desired to be is like a bird in flight, free from the limitations of the past and moving toward the realization of your desire. Your subjective impressions should be embodied in your world.

DESIRE: THE WORD OF GOD

«So shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth; it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.» (Isaiah 55:11)

The nature of desire

God speaks to you through your basic desires. Your basic desires are words of promise or prophecy that contain a plan and the power to express. By basic desire is meant your true purpose.

  • Basic desires: This is the voice of your «I AM» (God) that reveals the beginning and the end («I am the beginning and the end»). This is the word of prophecy.
  • Secondary desires: They concern the ways of awareness and the paths of realization. They are the secret of the Father and are never revealed to man in advance.

Error of intervention in the “Middle”

Man constantly violates the law by adding to or taking away from the words of prophecy:

  1. Addition: When a person begins to plan "how" a desire will be fulfilled, they add to the word of God, not knowing that what is desired already has its own power of expression.
  2. Withdrawal: When a person compromises and agrees to less, believing that it is easier to achieve a goal, they take away from the word of God.

The inevitable result of such violations is death, epidemics, failure, and disappointment.

Consciousness as a source of desires

Your desires are the natural and automatic result of your present self-concept. God, your unconditioned consciousness, is impersonal. He gives you what your conditioned state deems necessary.

  • To change the nature of your desires, change your perception of yourself.
  • «"There is nothing unclean in itself, except for the one who sees something as unclean.".

The Golden Rule and the Boomerang Law

«"Do unto others what you would have them do unto you.".

This rule is based on an immutable law of life: Since consciousness is the only reality, what you feel for another person is a gift you have given them.

  • Accepted gift: It becomes a reality for another.
  • Unaccepted gift: If a person does not accept your condition as true for themselves, this gift returns to you and is embodied in your own world.

Your world is a gift you have given yourself. It is made up of your idea of yourself PLUS your ideas of others that have not been accepted by them.

Discipline of the mind

  • Wise man: She sees no obstacles. She knows that the fixed subjective state already has ways of expressing itself ("Before they ask, I've already answered").
  • Undisciplined person: It sees opposition and, through disappointment, forms desires for destruction that ultimately return to itself.

The Mystery of Pesach (Easter)

The story of Passover is the mystery of a change in consciousness, a transition from restrictions to freedom.

  • Man with a jug of water: The eleventh disciple, Simon of Canaan. A symbol of a disciplined mind that hears only noble and good statements. To follow him is to tune your mind to perceive only good.
  • Easter holiday: This is the moment when you shift your focus away from the present self and embrace the consciousness of being who you want to be.

This feat is accomplished through the twelve disciples—the twelve disciplined qualities of your own mind.

FAITH

“And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.” [Matthew 17:20]

The True Meaning of the Mustard Seed

This faith in a grain of mustard seed has become a stumbling block to the man. He has been taught to believe that a grain of mustard seed signifies a small amount of trust. So he naturally wonders why he, a mature man, should lack such a small measure of faith when such a small amount guarantees success.

  • Not the measure, but the quality: A grain of mustard seed is not a measure of a small portion of faith. On the contrary, it is absolute faith.
  • Consciousness: The mustard seed is aware of itself as a mustard seed. It knows no other seed in the world. It is sealed in the belief that this mustard seed, just as the sperm sealed in the womb, is aware of its human being and only its human being.

Faith as a tool of creation

A mustard seed is truly the measure of faith needed to achieve any of your goals. But like the mustard seed, you too must lose yourself in the consciousness of being only what is desired.

  • Sealed condition: You remain in this sealed state until it explodes and reveals your conscious claim.
  • Symbolic correspondences: * Faith is the secret of creation, VAU under the divine name JOD HE VAU HE;
    • Faith is Boor in Noah's family;
    • Faith is a feeling that Isaac blessed and made his son Jacob.

By faith God (your consciousness) calls the unseen as if they were and makes them visible. It is faith that seals you in this conscious state until your unseen claim matures and is expressed.

Practice: How to carry your mood

How would you feel if you were who you wanted to be?

  1. Wear the mood: This is the feeling that would be yours if you were already who you want to be.
  2. Sealing: Soon you will be sealed in the faith that you are.
  3. Objectification: Then, without effort, this invisible state objectifies itself; the invisible becomes visible.

In this mental silence or tombstone gaze, you remain confident that you need no one to roll away the stone, for all the mountains, rocks, and inhabitants of the earth are nothing in your eyes. No one can stop this conscious state from manifesting itself.

Word of God

This conscious state, when properly sealed by faith, is the word of God, I am. The Word of God (your conscious state) must become incarnate so that you may know: «I am the Lord… there is no God beside me,» «The Word became flesh and dwelt among us,» and «He sent his word and healed him.»

The Technique of Healing a Friend (The Mystic's Secret)

You too can send your word and heal a friend.

  • Definition: Determine what he would like to be or possess. Now you have the word of God.
  • Process: 1. Sit quietly and adopt the mental attitude of listening. 2. Recall the familiar voice of your friend. 3. Imagine that you actually hear his voice and that it is telling you that he is or has what you wanted. 4. Impress upon your consciousness the fact that you have actually heard him; feel the rapture.
  • Refusal: Then completely give up (let go).

“Speak, Lord, for your servant hears.” Your consciousness is the Lord speaking in the familiar voice of a friend. When you have made an impression, you will not be moved by outward appearance, for that impression is sealed, like a grain of mustard seed, and will ripen to its full expression in time.

ANNUNCIATION

“And the angel said to her: You will conceive in your womb and bear a son… How will this be, since I do not know a man? And the angel answered her: The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you…”

The Mystery of the Immaculate Conception

Using a friend's voice to impregnate oneself with the desired state is beautifully told in the story of the Immaculate Conception. It is a story that has been told for centuries all over the world, but the person was not told that it was written about her, so she did not receive the benefit that it was supposed to give her.

History reveals the way in which an idea or word was made flesh. God, we are told, begot an idea, a son, without the help of another. He then placed His conceived idea in the womb of Mary through the help of an angel who made this announcement to her and impregnated her with that idea.

Four Characters in the Drama of Creation

A simpler way of fertilizing consciousness has never been recorded. The roles in this inner drama are distributed as follows:

  • Father: Symbolizes your consciousness.
  • Son: Symbolizes your desire (specified goal).
  • Maria: Symbolizes your receptive attitude towards reason.
  • Angel: Symbolizes the method of fertilization (imaginary voice).

Practical method: Step by step

1. The Birth of an Idea (Father and Son)

A father begets a son without the help of another. You define your purpose—you clarify your desire without the help or advice of another person. A clarified desire is a perfectly formed seed or an only son.

2. Choosing a messenger (Angel)

You choose a person in your world who will be genuinely happy to witness your wish come true. Using the voice of an angel or a friend is the shortest, safest, and most reliable way to self-fertilize.

3. State of Receptivity (Mary)

You adopt a receptive mind position, a listening position. Imagine that you hear the voice of the one you have chosen. Have it tell you how lucky you are to have fully realized your desire.

4. The moment of conception

You remain in this state until you feel the excitement of hearing good and wonderful news. The emotional excitement is the moment of conception. It is the moment when you self-fertilize, when you truly feel that you already have what you only wanted before.

Result and Implementation

From this subjective experience, you, like Mary in the story, will understand through a changed attitude of mind that you have conceived a son. You have established a certain subjective state and will soon objectify it.

After that, you secretly go about your business, telling no one about this flawless self-fertilization, confident that in time you will express this impression. This principle is immutable: apply it, and all the inhabitants of the Earth will not be able to stop you from fulfilling your desires.
