Neville Goddard: The Complete Reader Kindle Edition

This collection of books is genuinely worth it's weight in gold. Honestly, each and every one of the books in this collection is a masterpiece in and of itself. Neville Goddard was truly someone who had a tremendously deep and clear understanding of how Imagination does indeed Create Reality, and he had a remarkable ability to translate that clarity and understanding into extremely accessible, usable and inspiring words, ideas and concepts.Any one of the 10 books in this volume "The Complete Reader" can be one of the most valuable tools anyone could ever have for the purpose of deliberately shaping their lives and Earthly experiences into what they want. I mean that most sincerely. I have read them over and over again, and will continue to do so for the rest of my life. Neville's soul and honest intentions to be of service to his fellow human beings shines through every paragraph, and his profound confidence and optimism come through in every sentence. Clearly, Neville Goddard LIVED the philosophy that Imagination is literally God in Action, and that whenever one says "I Am", that's God. Not only are countless examples of using his techniques and ideas given and demonstrated, as are countless examples from the lives of others, but anyone astute enough to really feel the being that Neville was while reading his books and listening to his lectures can easily tell that his confidence and experiential knowledge were exceeded only by his sincerity.I have personally been working with the principles and specific techniques Neville offers in these beautifully written gems in this collection, and can testify that if one truly applies the principles and techniques, with genuine sincerity and a real willingness to believe (even and especially in the power of belief itself), that one can indeed have great success in creating the life that they want - not only for themselves, but for others as well. There is considerable repetition of the basic principles and truths in these books, but that is a very good thing indeed. One can never revisit the truth enough, when the truth is that you, your awareness of being, your imagination, your "I Am", is literally God itself. And sprinkled liberally through the repetition and reiterations (which often have subtle, very important additional details) of these truths are additional, phenomenally powerful concepts and practical applications of the concepts, any one of which is worth the price of this book.For example: How many of us have ever stopped to consider that what we think of other people literally shapes our experience of them, and also literally has an impact on who that person is and how they express themselves? How many of us are open minded enough to even contemplate that our impressions of others actually help to create behaviors and character traits in those others? Even among some of the best and most honest metaphysical and spiritual teachers out there (and believe me, I've studied many of the greats over many decades), very few of them step into this kind of territory. Can it be that by using feeling and imagination and belief that we can affect someone outside of ourselves, in direct opposition to what most societies and cultures believe and espouse? The answer, according to Neville (and me) is categorically Yes. Can we have a better experience of someone who we previously have had only unpleasant or negative experiences with, by changing our internal dialogue, imaginal visions and expectations regarding him or her? Indeed we can, and I have proven it multiple times by applying Neville's unparalleled wisdom. A couple of quotes from Neville in this regard: "Others only echo that which we whisper to them in secret" (from https://freeneville.com/mental-diets-transcript-free-neville-goddard/ among other places, including these books), and (paraphrasing this one): Don't rob others of their ability to be all they can be by thinking small of them.I could go on and on. But I have already shared so much. I may add to this review later, but meanwhile, here is a poem I wrote on New Year's Eve of 2016, after studying and applying Neville's work for about 5 or 6 months. It is called I Resolve. I am still doing my level best to apply this wisdom every day, and will do so forever. Any comments would be very welcome.I Resolve written December 31st 2016 by James GalushaI ResolveTo make better use of my imagination and to be available to help others do the sameTo remember that my consciousness is God and that physical life is a school for image makingTo walk in gratitude with every step and in that gratitude reclaim my status as the CreatorTo imagine great things about other people and sustain my focus on who and what they would like to beTo remember not to identify with states I am in and to master moving from one state to anotherI ResolveTo be aware that everywhere I go people show me who I amTo remember that the entire world is myself pushed outTo notice that everything I see and hear mirrors and illustrates to me the good use or misuse of my imaginationTo consistently and passionately invite the God within me to awaken fully and completelyTo reactivate my ability to create exactly what I desire in life by sustaining the memory of imaginal power as GodI ResolveTo cooperate with the process of The One Being awakening from its' self imposed amnesiaTo choose noble thoughts and actions and by example inspire others to take the high road within and withoutTo feed and nurture the beautiful impulses within me by dwelling on them and in themTo always remember that I have the capacity to believe things into being and to use that capacity for GoodTo listen when the voice within me says "I Am God" and to overcome the habit of invalidating that ideaI ResolveTo use all of my senses as vividly as possible to clothe the assumption and feeling of my wishes already fulfilledTo rise above the habit of giving away my power to anything outside of myself by remembering it is ALL WithinTo never let the sun set on my angerTo focus on lovely things and on my goals and ideals as already realized as I drift off to sleep each nightTo remember that the mouth of God is the mind of ManI ResolveTo believe in the power of belief itself and to overcome all habits contrary to this most fundamental truthTo use my imagination and faith to create paradise by shaping the clay of my consciousness into that imageTo help others to Enter the Kingdom by walking in the assumption that their desires for ascension are fulfilledTo recognize that there is only one Being playing all the roles and that holographically we are ALL that one BeingTo see God behind each and every mask on each and every player on the stage in this play called LIFEI ResolveTo Create Heaven on Earth by Believing It Into Existence

Awesome book of instructions that proved to be true if you consistently practice what it teaches.

By far, Neville's work trumps ALL. ALL . I had found out about him "randomly" on the internet and joined a FB group that works with his teachings. One of the things I like the most about Neville, is that he says "Test yourself". So this is what I did. I immediately began putting some of his principles in action, and the results were astounding. Sometimes even IMMEDIATE in terms of my thoughts. ( whether good or bad). It gets to be very exciting. The great thing about this book that I really love is it is easy to read in chapters. You will NOT get bored. Another great thing is that in I think every chapter, there is a personal story from Neville when he was still alive and teaching this. The stories are amazing. ( And, you cannot believe these stories until you start "testing" it yourself.) This is truly an inspirational, thought provoking work. Everyone should have this book. In my case, this is getting added to my list of things to buy for birthdays, and Christmas. In the short time I have been following Neville, (3 months) I already have a number of "wins' and things that came true for me! And fast! (At last 15-20!) In truth, this really is a book about consciousness. And I have to say, I am dumping all of my other spiritual/self help books, because there simply is no comparison. There is Bible verses in here, that TRULY explain what the Bible was talking about. I can guarantee, if you buy this book, start studying it, start applying the principles, your life WILL change for the better. I hope to add to this review, because I am keeping a journal about this. My only regret is that I didn't find him 20 years ago, but I am so happy that I found him now! SO, go test yourself!

This reader is absolutely wonderful! David Allen has truly done an outstanding job compiling this. It has some of the best Neville Goddard books. It is surprisingly light and easy to hold, and the font is decently large considering the number of books it contains. The reader is also well bound and stays open, which is great when I am highlighting and underlining certain nuggets of wisdom.A suggestion I have is that as you read each book, search on youtube for an audio version of that book and listen to it to reinforce the message. For example, I searched on Youtube for the audio version of the Law and the Promise and found this one -[...] (there are several to choose from, but keep in mind that not every book will have an audio equivalent). After I read a chapter from the Reader, I would listen to the audio version the next day while getting ready for work or driving. I did this because while I found grasping the message intellectually to be understandable, practicing it, maintaining my faith and continuing to believe it over a prolonged period of time was challenging - mainly, because, as Neville Goddard suggests, we are very much influenced by our senses more than our imaginal minds. This practice is learning how to do the latter.I'm still in the beginning stages and have learned there is "focus" curve to these teachings. For example, when I revise my day as I lay in bed and find it hard to focus on the daily events, I remind myself that similar to learning how to balance in yoga, falling off, or in this case, being distracted by another image or thought, then coming back to focus is part of the practice. Keep trying. The more you practice, the better you will become at this.During the past two months that I have been grasping and practicing these teachings, I have found that I am significantly less anxious and more confident. I am empowered with the ability to choose how I want to feel. I can catch myself quickly when I start to imagine something negative and turn it around or revise it in that moment. Prior to this, I would get caught in a negative spiral, but not anymore.I hope to post an update about my manifestations in a few months. Until then, happy reading!

Its great to have most of Neville Goddard's work in one book. A bit bulky to carry though, but worth it!

Your efforts have made many millions understand the real meaning of the scripture and spiritual.There are a few of his sermons missing though, but the main message has been conveyed!Try to make a compilation of his (auditorium) lectures too.Thank you again Allen & AEP!

The Only Book you ever need to readRead it again and again until it gets imprinted in your brain and most importantly DO WHAT IT SAYS. IT WORKSForever grateful to Neville for sharing his teachings

Goddard permette di accedere a nuovi mondi. Da leggere.

There are many reasons why you might buy this book, whether you are already well versed in Neville Goddard and want to own the only collection available to contain all of his books in the closest possible original form in print...All the way through to listening to his 1950s original lecture recordings with a very distinct 'crackle' about his interpretation of scripture and the power of god (or in Nevilles teachings our own wonderful human imagination)I stumbled across Neville through the law of attraction several years after reading the infamous secret, you could say it's been quite a journey.I'll be the first to admit 'he seemed a little heavy' at the time, not being a biblical scholar (let alone someone who had ever once read the bible) his quotations from scripture initially shut down my brain and left me looking elsewhere...Who'd have thought today I'd be helping the older generation understand how to make sense of some of those verses in an entirely unique and personal way!!? If you'd have told me I would have been doing that a year ago - I might well have laughed at you.The day this book arrived I couldn't put it down, since then it has for want of a better word become 'my life companion' - a strange statement you might think... so let me explain:This is definitely not a book you'll read once and throw on your bookshelf, atleast it isn't if you want to truthfully benefit from it.Each book is clearly separated from the next, starting with some of the more simple ideas and gradually building upon the preceding volume until you arrive at the more intricate works: inevitably requiring a little more careful attention.Neville has a habit of wording thing's in a way that can seem simple enough in places and yet contain so much more than they first appear to be...I've even found myself paying for courses by mentors and coaches to better understand those hidden meanings - it's potentially saved me years of struggling to get beyond my own personal limitations.Gradually you'll come to realise a lot of his core teachings are a theme that runs throughout the books. He appears to have been gifted to be able to approach them from more directions than a compass, whilst maintaining a subtle yet empowering focus on developing your own understanding through definite laws (as he has come to know them) and stories of absolute success in applying them.The stories themselves range from those he has been close to, his own life and the blessed individuals he has helped along the way.If I could sum up what he is trying to say without over complicating it, I would perhaps suggest he is attempting to help people realise how to awaken their creative power...Of course later in Nevilles life he eventually moved towards something more mystical and no longer cared much for the material things most of us mere humans still find ourselves seeking when we become his students.He is certainly not one to put any grimace on our earthly needs - he doesn't force any doctrines or beliefs on others; this absolutely isn't a book on buying into a religion...What it is though : is a doorway into a journey for those who are willing to 'test him and see' that will end up leaving you a very different person than you were when you opened these pages...Possibly even rethinking everything you thought you knew and inspiring others to do the same.Whether it's your time today or in 30 years from now, this is one book you should absolutely consider in your lifetime.
