Neville Goddard "Control your Inner Conversations" Lecture Excerpts (1971)

nevel God art control your inner conversations mind and speech lecture excerpts April 26 1971 if one could only control these inner conversations morning noon and night and carry them right into the dream world he would know what world he is creating stop for one moment and ask yourself what am I thinking now you are carrying on a little tiny inner speech at every moment of time you may be in the presence of someone that the world thinks important but you don't and inwardly you are saying but only God hears it that's what you are actually saying outward you are pleased to meet him and you are flattered with the contact but inwardly what are you saying this is what I ask everyone to observe observe what you are actually doing on the inside for that is what God sees and what you are doing on the inside you are doing in little tiny speech movements and they are crystallizing in the manifested world round about you so if to do was easy as to know what we're good to do well we would all be kings we all would be everything we want to be in this world but we find it more difficult to do it than to know what to do so I could tell you from now until the ends of time but only practice will do it just practice when a man looks and sees a building that seems beyond his wildest dreams of ever acquiring it and he has reasons that he does not share with anyone but his mother she is the only one he takes into his confidence and she despairs because she knows that he could never achieve ownership of that building it's too big too far beyond her dreams or even ambition but he loves her and he shares only with her what he is doing and he sees a sign and flying that he does own it well as he looks at it he could not read the sign and not inwardly repeat it so inwardly he is saying it is my building as he reads his own name on that building and day after day as he goes by he reads his own name on the building which implies that he has it and then out of the blue two years later they fell and a stranger comes in and offers to put the money up to buy it he has no collateral but that day he was owner of the building he didn't conducted the most fantastically marvelous successful business in that firm for many many years and then an offer came that offered him many many times more than he paid for it he paid fifty thousand dollars port of another person's money and sold it without any capital gain for eight hundred and forty hundred thousand dollars there was no capital gain it was all done by inner speech but you could not read something without using your lips no one sees it but I read something and inwardly I am repeating what I am reading I saw the tear on the bus a few months ago going to Beverly Hills and here is a man reading a paper and every word he read he was forming with his lips I could watch him could I have actually interpreted the motion of his lips I could have told you exactly what he was reading for he formed every word what everyone is doing that but not as obviously as he did it so here out of nowhere we create by inner speech through the use of what called mind if you will I like the word imagination to me it inflames me when I imagine a state any state if I can only persuade myself of the reality of the state imagined that's the important thing to believe in the reality of the state imagine but to know what to do is not the same as doing it so if to do worse easy as to know what we're good to do well then chapels had been churches and poor men's cottages Prince's palaces and how many teachers in the world follow their own instruction and then he goes on to confess I can easier teach 20 what we're good to be done than to be one of the 20 to follow my own teaching so I tell you I'm telling you exactly what I know from experience whether it be the law or the promise but I'm not telling you that everyone will apply it wisely I'm not telling you that in the end there will not be a shakedown of those who only pretended to believe it there are many who came out of a traditional background they will return to it and they will genuflect before I hadn't made cross or handmade figure that hangs on the wall and crossed themselves for good luck and think that the speaker who taught them in the beginning has turned into a devil they will but rejoice because these signs must come is part of Scripture and when they come into my world I rejoice because the end is upon me just when they come and they will come and I get thinner and thinner as they separate moving back because they cannot go forward into the top under the high places of a mountain and then you know exactly who understood you and who did not understand you let me now make it quite clear you have the gift you can speak even if you were dumb you still speak inwardly you speak and you form these little speech movements within yourself make them conform to your wish fulfilled do what Robert Millikan did when he was a poor boy and had nothing but a brilliant mind a great great understanding of literature but he had no money and he was tired of his poverty and knowing how the mind works he constructed a sentence that if true would imply he was no longer poor and his sentence is a beautiful sentence I have not I'm going to have I have a lavish steady dependable income consistent with integrity and mutual benefit that was the great Robert Millikan who is the head of Caltech who gave us his discovery of cosmic rays who when he died could leave a fortune behind to these charities I know that the YMCA was one of them they got a fortune from him he already settled on his sons and made them financially independent but he had enough left over to give to his favorite charities and lived a full wonderful marvelous life where everyone who met him benefited by the actual meeting with that great man and he started off from scratch using this simple technique using the simple technique using the gift of God that he gave to every person in this world mind and speech whether you be a Frenchman or an American or any other nationality you have speech and you have a mind instead of accepting what you have already done with that gift you simply ignore it you brought it into being all this is solidified speech the whole vast manifested world and you must turn from it and then reconstruct the sentence change it as this one of whom I spoke to changed the entire pattern he was a poor boy the whole family poor behind the 8-ball financially socially and every sense of the word behind that eight ball and he constructed a scene as he read the so-called letters that implied that the family owned the building hears repeating within himself as he read it and it took two years he persisted and at the end of two years the family owned it and from then on you couldn't stop them and they are still growing and expanding and expanding and expanding because he never forgot how to apply this principle so he has among those who didn't come within it he found it just as easy to do as to know what to do and others can find it easy to know what to do but difficult to do it I've seen it time and time again well what do you do now what sentence would imply that you are now what you would like to be you know what to do and I say it's not knowing what to do it is to doing it someone got the most marvelous revelation I was there the morning that it happened stop spending your thoughts your time and your money everything in life must be an investment and I so loved it I incorporated that thought in the chapter the coin of heaven in my book awakens imagination she would be the first to confess although it came through her and it was her revelation from God to her shared with me and I shared it through the written form with those who read it in the book but she has the first to confess she never applied it so I asked you to really apply it don't think for one second that knowing what to do is going to do anything for you it's the doing it that matters so for every moment of time you know what to do then do it if you find yourself carrying on any negative conversation break it even though it gives you pleasure as it does many people they find such fun in being critical they think they are alone and no one sees them so it doesn't matter no one sees you the only one that matters sees you every moment of time and that's your father he sees into the very depth of your being and he knows exactly what you are doing and your world is built out of these inner conversations so today if you are not satisfied with the world in which you live blame no one but turn within to these two gifts and use them wisely for here we are told to order our life according to our conversations so now what am I actually doing on the inside of myself and I'm doing it morning noon and night I can't stop it if I stop for one moment it isn't you can't stop it you take it into your dreams and you are still talking you are really talking at all moments of time so what are you saying at every moment of time watch it be careful what you are saying because your whole vast world is this inner conversation pushed out and you can change it only by changing the conversation because a conversation is equated with your nature so if you walk the street or you ride the bus or you sit alone you are still talking at every moment of time you're talking and all you need to do to find out what you have been saying is to look at your world your world reflects this inner speech I've seen it every moment of time I am NOT going to tell you I have not faltered I would not for one moment tell you that I'm always in control of the inner conversations so I hope that everyone here not only listens but believes what I've said for I've told you what I know from experience God Himself came and comes into human history in the person of Jesus Christ in you in me in every one but when he comes in you he awakens as you read the story then all that is told in that story concerning Jesus Christ you are going to experience so when you tell the story to those who will readily believe it when you feed them with the loaves and the fish based upon the law how to get the building how to get money how to become famous and all that they love it then you turn and you emphasize the end the promise and a promise is you will be as God you don't need buildings because the whole world is yours and all within it but they can't see that they want more loaves and more fish and then something will happen because you didn't come to bring peace upon earth you came to bring a sward to separate the old from the new and a conflict is on and then suddenly eruptions will take place within families and they will turn completely turn against you but you knowing that you are the central figure of the gospel you rejoice you have nothing but pity for those who couldn't follow beyond a certain point that's all that you have no criticism no condemnation only pity they couldn't go a little bit further but it's all part of the play so I tell you you watch carefully what you are saying morning noon and night when you go to bed at night just watch your inner conversations and see that the Sun is not descending upon your anger resolve it at that very moment and make it conform to your wish fulfilled and make that wish fulfilled a thing of love what would it be like if it were true just what would it be like then carry on a conversation from a premise of the wish were filled all closed in love for anyone that you think of and watch how things happen in your world your night may I tell you if that is your last thought it will dominate the dream of the night you are completely dominated and your father is speaking to you constantly through the medium of Dreams under the medium of vision and you will see the whole thing unfolding within you and you will know that you're the Lord Jesus Christ you don't go out and scream it from the housetops you know it and you walk in the comfort of being the awakened man who is God but everyone say exactly what he wants to say about you and pay no attention to it because they have to do it when you come down to the end they have to do it the separation must take place and you don't justify it self justification is the voice of hell so you don't justify anything and you don't try to always be right another almost incurable disease of man is the necessity of always being right so you don't make any effort to prove that you are right you know what you have experienced and you can't deny the experience so you go your way telling it just as it comes to you and it comes to you in the most glorious manner it's all in Scripture so when you come to the end you aren't disappointed and you aren't surprised that those who sent off alive and free will now take up arms against you and call you insane call you a devil and would disrupt their family life you know exactly what you've done you've only told the truth and when the truth comes into the world it comes not to bring peace but a Swart he is going to separate you from the traditional background that enslaves you in the past because real progress in this world religious progress is a gradual transition from a God of tradition to a God of experience you experience God and the whole thing reflects it it's entirely up to man to choose anything and look into this manifested world and you'll see what we have chosen but every morning you see headlines nothing but disaster you see what man has chosen he seems either to want it or he has fed it look at the editorials we need that in order to sell papers or else we ourselves are demanding and from but you feed upon it morning noon and night we feast upon all the Sun loveliness and carry on these little internal mental conversations with ourselves but they don't remain there they balloon and objectify themselves and become solidified as our manifested world so this whole manifested world goes to show us what use or misuse we have made of God's gift and God's gift is your mind in your speech and it's not your outer speech for we know how deceptive that is you see it's morning noon and night a Salesman goes in and he is trained to deceive the buyer the advertiser is trained to deceive the buyer and everything is on the outside God sees only the inside man sees the outer appearance and God sees the inner man so when you watch your inner conversation you are actually watching the new nature this is your nature and if you don't like it change it you put off the old man and then put on the new man and he will show you the salvation of God and the whole thing one fold within you I tell you from my own experience before the promise was realized in me seemingly I had this conversation with my brother formerly I would argue mentally we were 5,000 miles apart and I needed money at that time and when I found myself arguing with him I broke it tore that entire record up and whether he sent me a nickel or not I loved him and praised him and thanked him and went about my business not knowing where the next was coming from for I had spent a fortune by taking off one solid year and living at the same level that I had lived in previous years and spent money like water then came that moment I needed money and inwardly I carried on a conversation with him and I thought that's a stupid thing to do so I broke that record and then I carried on the most glorious conversation with him like two lovers because I do love him and he loves me and I changed that old man into the new man by changing my conversation with him and I changed that old man into the new man by changing my conversation with him do you know in no time flat unasked a very large wonderful check came to me and no request i didn't appeal at all i was taking it out on the one i loved because i myself had spent the money like a drunken sailor and then here inwardly i'm arguing with my brother and when i broke it and actually carried on the most loving conversation with him all about the family life and all these marvelous things suddenly out of nowhere came a very large wonderful check and i didn't appeal for it so i'm telling you from experience i know it works this way yet if you are in the mood to argue you solos the argument it costs you nothing so you are having the time of your life but it doesn't stop here it's going to balloon and crystallize and manifest itself into your world so watch it and do you know it becomes a pleasant thing after a while to actually carry on lovely conversations it becomes very pleasant so i say to you now as we are going up towards the end believe me i would not deceive you I've told you exactly what happened to me as to the promise I've told you exactly what I've proven as to the law it will not fail you you can take the law and put it into practice now don't wait until tomorrow do it now and know that if you carry on these conversations the promise of the safety of some will take form you will show you the salvation of God in a salvation of God is simply you awaken as God that's how he shows it to you he came and he comes into human history in the person of Jesus Christ and there is only one Jesus Christ so when it happens you are Jesus Christ you don't change your name you are still Mary you're still stand you are still John but when it happens you know who you are you don't go and ask the judge to change your name to Jesus you walk the streets as Stanley still as Mary still as Neville but you know who you are and then when things do happen because you know who you are these things will have to happen they must accuse you of being insane they must accuse you of being deceitful and leading people astray it's all part of Scripture but you are not amazed you only have pity and mercy for those who could not go further than they are and then they fall by the wayside these are the four on which the seed falls the highway among the thorns among the rocks and then on good soil and you can't help it you can only scatter the seed and let it fall where it will and it will fall on those four kinds of soil it always falls on four and as it falls on the good it will simply rise within them and they will have the identical experience that you have had when it falls on the highway quickly other ideas devoured when it falls among the thorns the cares of the world encroach upon it and choke it if it falls on the rock and the rock is not prepared to let the root go too deep the Sun scorches it and suddenly something comes up and it's all gone but when the soil has been prepared it goes deep and it bears a hundredfold now let us go into the silence you
