I Hope An Interesting Note On Neville's "Technique"

Neville was in New York and wanted to go to Barbados. He didn't imagine somehow of getting money for a ticket; he imagined BEING in Barbados. Neville wanted out of the army. He didn't imagine finding some way to get discharged; he imagined BEING home in New York. Neville was in Barbados, but needed to get passage to New York. He didn't imagine miraculously acquiring a ticket; he imagined BEING on the ship ready to sail. In the Lord's Prayer (Alexander's Aramaic version) it says, "Give us the bread for our daily need." Not means to get money for the bread we need, but the bread--finished product--itself.
