The Way

In Neville Goddard’s teachings, the cryptic imagery of Revelation 13 becomes a fascinating metaphor for the internal dynamics of consciousness . It is not about literal beasts rising from the earth, but about the mental beasts — the wild, untamed states of mind — we entertain within ourselves. These beasts are not demons to be feared but aspects of our awareness waiting to be unified and transformed. The nature of the beast is first inplied as anger and displeasure in the story of Cain and Abel The First Beast: The Dominant State of Mind The first beast, with ten horns and seven heads, symbolises an oppressive state of consciousness dominated by limiting beliefs. The “seven heads” represent the many fragmented perceptions we hold — distorted ways of seeing ourselves and the world, formed when we forget our divine creative power. Just as the “many eyes of God” symbolise expanded divine perception, these heads reflect the scattered, incomplete views of a mind not yet unified. The “ten ...

“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” — Galatians 6:9 Faith is not optimism—it is a state of being . It is the invisible certainty that defines and directs every visible outcome. In the biblical story of manifestation, Abraham stands as the first ' man " to fully embody this principle. His life marks the birth of faith , not as passive belief but as active assumption. Neville Goddard often taught that manifestation begins in the unseen, and Abraham shows us how to stand unwavering in that invisible conviction. The First Stirring of Faith Abraham’s journey begins in Genesis 12 , where he receives the promise without evidence, plan, or support: “Now the Lord said to Abram, Go out of your country, and away from your family and your father’s house, into a land which I will show you: And I will make of you a great nation, blessing you and making your name great; and you will be a blessing.” — Genesis 12:1–2 This promise is n...

In Genesis 18, Abraham sits at the doorway of his tent when three men appear. This moment is more than an encounter; it symbolises the transition from one state of being to another. In Neville Goddard’s teachings, such a doorway represents the threshold between your current self and the fulfilled state you desire to enter. Genesis 4:7: "If you do well, will you not be lifted up? and if not, sin is waiting at the door, desiring to get control over you: but you are to get the mastery over it." This passage suggests that every moment offers a choice: to remain in an old state or step forward into a new assumption . The “door” symbolises the conscious decision point where you master your inner reactions and assumptions. Abraham’s Visitors: Faith in Action When Abraham receives the three men and hears the promise of Isaac, he stands at a spiritual doorway. Though Sarah laughs at the seeming impossibility of the promise, Abraham embodies unwavering faith — a complete acceptance...

Daniel 8 is a story of your mind . Through Neville Goddard’s teachings, we see this chapter as the inner conflict between your current beliefs and a new desire you want to embody. It shows how imagination can overthrow old assumptions and bring a new reality to life. Daniel’s Vision Begins: The Witness Awakens "In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first. And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was at Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai." ( Daniel 8:1–2 ) "Daniel" symbolises the awakened imagination — the part of you that becomes conscious of your inner world and its power to shape outer life. "Shushan" points to a refined, fragrant state of mind, while the "river Ulai" represents the spiritual current flowing within. The vision occurring in the t...

The story of Daniel in the lion’s den (Daniel 6) is often read as an external miracle of rescue. But seen through Neville Goddard’s teachings, it reveals the mystery of spiritual life: your world is yourself pushed out , and every challenge is a test of your unwavering assumption. Daniel as the Embodiment of the Assumed State Daniel is described as being "of the children of Judah" (Daniel 1:6), and Judah means "praise." Symbolically, this shows that Daniel’s power in the lions’ den arises from a foundation of inner praise Daniel symbolises the individual who dares to live fully from the end — the one who has assumed his desired state as already true. He is not moved by appearances or threatened by opposing circumstances. He has taken refuge in his chosen identity and feels it so completely that no external condition can shake him. When Daniel is accused and thrown into the lions’ den, it symbolises what happens when your new state is tested by the seeming facts...
