Neville Goddard's Final Lectures
Tungkol sa ebook na ito
In Neville Goddard’s Final Lectures, scholar of esotericism Mitch Horowitz introduces, annotates, and collects the fullest record yet of talks the mystic giant Neville Goddard delivered in the closing months of his life in 1972. Mitch also reveals previously unknown details of Neville’s death.
Many of these valuable lectures have never before been transcribed or anthologized. Within them, you will discover Neville at the peak of his cosmic and personal vision. The teacher compellingly describes the purpose of your human journey from sleeplike ignorance to resplendent awareness, and he offers practical and compelling instructions on how to use the causative powers of your imagination—the source of all creation.
Mitch’s introduction, “Into the Silence,” newly documents the circumstances of Neville’s death and surveys the depth and range of his closing ideas, left as a testament to seekers everywhere. Mitch also annotates these lectures, providing clarifying historical and literary references. The book is rounded out with Mitch’s updated timeline of the mystic’s life.
Neville Goddard’s Final Lectures is a capstone and legacy capturing some of the teacher’s most supple thought. It is, finally, a tribute and testimony to a man who gave us a vastly greater understanding of humanity’s purpose and destiny.

Neville Lancelot Goddard, simply known as Neville, was born in Barbados, West Indies on Feb. 19, 1905, the fourth child in a family of nine boys and one girl. He came to the United States in 1922 and enjoyed a career in the theatre. His interest in mysticism grew as did his esoteric interpretations of the Bible. He studied with a man named Abdullah for many years, learning Hebrew and delving deeply into the hidden symbolic meaning of the Kabbalah and scripture. Neville began lecturing and travelled throughout the United Sates, making his home In Los Angeles. Just as Seth gave us the immortal words, “You create your own reality,” Neville has told us how with his spectacular phrase, “Imagining creates reality.” What a gift to humankind! He also translates the Bible in a new light, explaining how the stories and parables are psychological dramas representing our consciousness. That all of its characters and actors are personified qualities and attributes of our consciousness. Neville passed on Oct. 1, 1972.
