Work From The Cleft
I re-read Neville Goddard's Seedtime and Harvest. Backwards. Chapter nine through one (I like to know where I am going). I heard, "take it up a notch." Neville said the Bible is all psychological. It is that, but up a notch. It isn't about psychology; the characters are the psychological elements of the mind. Nothing in the Bible is about any man.
Jesus Christ is the QUALITY of our consciousness being the action of the Ineffable. It is not me thinking of something, but my MIND thinking it. Perhaps I should say the Original Mind in me. Each of us are two, though one: the Original Mind, and the human annexed, two natures combined. I can say, "I believe," but it is a matter of my MIND believing; otherwise, I am FANTASIZING that I believe. I remember He is Glorious God, but MIND must remember He is Glorious God. It is a step less of dualism in the mind. So when I am doing the Producer, Author, Director, Actor thing, it is my MIND doing it if I have the right focus. Focus is being in the cleft behind God and seeing through his eyes.
In Seedtime and Harvest, Neville writes about Jacob's ladder as being stages of values, of meaning, and their corresponding levels of consciousness. There is the basic observation of the physical, the how, the why, and I suppose you could impose the seven Essene Mirrors as steps of the ladder, layers of our being. And YHWH, the action of the Ineffable's imagination at the top.
What I got from this was that manifestation comes from the top down. Changing here involves changing the top. That is why we have to relax and enter sleepiness, to float into the unconditioned YHWH state. YHWH is the top manifesting here, and allows us to become him unconditioned to revise this state. Chalk it up to the Law of Reversibility (everything is one every which way it can). Go there, de-condition, re-condition as you will, and establish the consequential sign of that desired state made real. It is a prayer technology.
Confucius' The Great Learning keeps coming to mind. Confucius' part takes all of a few minutes to read. Incalculable value in it. "To illustrate illustrious virtue; to renovate the people; and to rest in the highest excellence . . . lay in the investigation of things." We must know exactly what we want. Don't sell yourself short. Expand what you desire, your definition of it. Grand scale. Sure, we are satisfied with bread and raiment, but ALL of Canaan is given us. What all there do you want? Assume it.

This is the "classic" text:
The Great Learning, by Confucius (written ca. 500 B.C.E)
What the great learning teaches, is to illustrate illustrious virtue; to renovate the people; and to rest in the highest excellence.
The point where to rest being known, the object of pursuit is then determined; and, that being determined, a calm unperturbedness may be attained to. To that calmness there will succeed a tranquil repose. In that repose there may be careful deliberation, and that deliberation will be followed by the attainment of the desired end.
Things have their root and their branches. Affairs have their end and their beginning. To know what is first and what is last will lead near to what is taught in the Great Learning.
The ancients who wished to illustrate illustrious virtue throughout the kingdom, first ordered well their own states. Wishing to order well their states, they first regulated their families. Wishing to regulate their families, they first cultivated their persons. Wishing to cultivate their persons, they first rectified their hearts. Wishing to rectify their hearts, they first sought to be sincere in their thoughts. Wishing to be sincere in their thoughts, they first extended to the utmost their knowledge. Such extension of knowledge lay in the investigation of things.
Things being investigated, knowledge became complete. Their knowledge being complete, their thoughts were sincere. Their thoughts being sincere, their hearts were then rectified. Their hearts being rectified, their persons were cultivated. Their persons being cultivated, their families were regulated. Their families being regulated, their states were rightly governed. Their states being rightly governed, the whole kingdom was made tranquil and happy.
From the Son of Heaven down to the mass of the people, all must consider the cultivation of the person the root of everything besides.
It cannot be, when the root is neglected, that what should spring from it will be well ordered. It never has been the case that what was of great importance has been slightly cared for, and, at the same time, that what was of slight importance has been greatly cared for.

Greetings from Chile!. Do you know know Jean Pierre Garnier Malet and his explanation about the double?. Very interesting similarities with what you are saying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fr0nqMDi03A

Malet is interesting. Says ancient Greeks taught this principle of double time, that it is as ubiquitous as life itself, yet demands that no one may teach it but himself. Neville was teaching it, or at least something very much like it, before Malet was born. It is much like the basis of quantum jumping, even C. S. Lewis shares the concept in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
