Miracle (Master Class Series): The Ideas of Neville Goddard
4.5/5
()
About this ebook
In this concise Master Class, PEN Award-winning historian and New Thought scholar Mitch Horowitz guides you through the methods of Neville Goddard, one of the most radical mystical voices of the past century. Neville taught one simple idea: your imagination is God, and if you properly learn to harness it, you can literally shape your world.
Mitch provides a three-step guide to Neville's methods, and something much more: He grapples with the question of tragedy and loss, and how we can understand the workings of mind-causation in our complex world. Never dodging difficult questions, never settling for pat answers, Mitch presents a challenging, practical, and incredibly engaging look into the ideas of a metaphysical master. Both newcomers and veterans will come away with a different perspective on their lives.

Introduction
Welcome to the Master Class Series. Each of these courses instructs you, in ten simple, straightforward lessons, how to benefit from the causative powers of your mind.
The lessons are designed so that you may experience one each day, all of them at once, or in whatever configuration you want. Do the exercises in your own time and at your own pace—but it is crucial that you do them. This series supplies hands-on philosophy. At the end of each course, you’ll find a short quiz to reinforce your knowledge.
The Master Class Series is designed to provide you with a new estimate of yourself, and of your highest possibilities.
Lesson
ONE
Extremist Self-Responsibility
What is a good way to live? This question has occupied the human mind since man’s earliest attempts at self-expression.
When seeking the good life, we are often caught in a sense of denial. We make a nod—and rightly so—to Golden Rule ethics; but we omit the indelible fact that most of us are also searching for some semblance of personal power, for the ability to enact and see through our plans in the world.
Where can this power be found? Does it even exist? Imagine for a moment that your emotionalized thoughts and mental images literally create everything in your world. How would that change your life? Would you be willing to test such a proposition?
That was the challenge brought to modern life by Neville Goddard, a twentieth-century metaphysical philosopher and lecturer who issued the dramatic claim that the human imagination is God. Neville wrote under his first name, which reflects how I’ll refer to him in this course.
The mystic and teacher argued, with elegance and congruity, that any time you encounter the term God, Yahweh, or Christ in the Old or New Testaments, you are actually encountering an allegorical reference to your own thoughts and emotive states, which literally outpicture the reality around you.
Each of us, Neville taught, is literally the Creator clothed in human flesh, slumbering to his own divinity. We live, he said, within an infinite network of coexistent realities, from which we select (rather than create) experiences by the nature of our emotionalized thoughts and expectations. In that sense, the words that you are now encountering are your own words—they are rooted in you,
