Think It Now

Neville Goddard's "technique" of the Law was to live in the end: to imagine what it would be like if it were true, and to mentally, experientially believe that you were there, and then to fall asleep. The thing is, experientially means sensually--using the senses. Transported in his imagination, Neville would feel a thing that was in his "there." He would see the place as really being there, see its scenery, see the people there, feel their handshakes, hear their voices, smell the plants and smell aromas inherent in the scene. The tastes, textures, and sounds he imagined felt with his senses were those of the world he wanted to experience, and believed he did experience with all the joy and love and gratitude of having experienced it in reality.

Neville took all this as being part of the process of prayer. "When ye pray, believe ye receive, and ye will," Jesus says in Mark 11:24. But it is a heap of stuff to come up with when you are going to sleep. In the Bible, the Jews were to center their lives around the Law, their experiences. They were to remember their history, the Exodus, God's voice at Mount Sinai, the giving of the Law--how they are supposed to act and think about the world that is supposed to be. It was loyalty to THAT world 24/7, regardless of whatever was happening in this world. The Jews were to be focused on THAT world, be keyed up for it, believing they received it now, not just when they went to sleep.

Get yourself keyed up for what you desire and in promise have received. What will the feeling be like when it is true? What will you feel, and what will it feel like? Feel it! What will you see? See it! What will you hear? Hear it! Inventory the world "there," and imagine each thing real experientially. Practice the experience of hearing voices and feeling grips and items and feeling satisfaction. As arrived. And honor the One Who arrived it.

Think of these experiences now so that you remember them then. The Milta (Miltha) is both complete and becoming, imagined (as the Ineffable has assumed Itself fully manifested) and imagining (as the Manifestation of the Ineffable becomes manifest). You are not hoping it will happen; you are remembering that it DID happen, and what a wonderful day you just had!
