and I just want to go to just give an overview in all of these just kind of just just to give a refresher on everything we've talked about which is so we start off with our real beliefs are what we live by that if we really believe in imagining creates reality we will live by this this premise in our life we will become imaginative rather than striving to be some type of um anything other than that which would be Perfection or enough or something where some some insecurity that the world gives you that you have
to somehow Follow by and and and fix you don't have to fix the world's insecurities you just need to start to become an imaginative for yourself and then we spoke about Esau and Jacob and how these are real States Of Consciousness that that we fall into when we or really it's a drama that we practice when we imagine and when we start to imagine and exercise the inner man of imagination we start to exercise Jacob and then we talked about counting the cost which really go which ties together with the pearl of great price we
can almost put those two together and the pear of great price which is really what it's talking about the count of the cost to me you can kind of shape that towards a state of mind where if I'm going to move into a state of consciousness I would have to let go of the State of Consciousness I'm in which is causing me whatever stresses and pressures and worries I have to let all this go to pay the price for my new state now the pearl of great price is from a more foundational standpoint that there
is no other cause other than my own imagination now that is from a if in a sense one's addressing a state and the other is addressing God or the cause and you have to buy the Pearl the Pearl is God in this case you have to buy the pr of you have to give up all your beliefs and see that the foundational phenomena of life is your imagination and we spoke about the art of dying which I would say that ties into what I just said about moving into one State of Consciousness is really he
says it as a way of death you must let go entirely of your own ideas of what you think you are you completely cease to be those things you no longer are those things and you imagine yourself the way you want to be and then in the Holy One we spoke about how or he spoke about how he used this law to get out of the army and how this was an illustration of how when you are in Egypt when you feel enclosed and you want to be freed you are in Egypt at Egypt at
that point it's just a metaphor and Pharaoh has said no to letting yourself go to letting yourself be free and and you basically have to go to God he went to his own i amness instead of going to some person in Authority he made in that case this was a story to make his own I amness become his own authority instead of going going to some power on the outside some man on the outside and then we talked about the levels of vision how there's singlefold double fold a three-fold and fourth fold vision and how
these one represents just the plain view of a tree is a tree or fire is a fire a candle is a candle and then the second vision is to see those things as symbolic representations of one's life and the third would be to take certain States Of Consciousness or these symbols and create a narrative in the story that represents and implies a change about you and then fourth fold vision is basically basically you are actually you've actually moved your Consciousness into a different place you're actually like meaning that let's say you have a dream you
are actually there you're completely conscious in that dream you were there you're in another place and you were interacting in that world and he but really all you really needed was three-fold Vision here to rearrange certain States and weave them together to create some image and that image rep implies something about you and then in the vision of the night lecture we spoke about how Carl Yung had this vision and he decided to credit it reality and it became real to him and so that is what we must do when we imagine something we have
to credit we have we have the power or the oper and power to Grant reality to States within us we might have States within us that we don't believe we doubt them but they are within us regardless and we have to believe in them credit them reality to make them a reality and then in the game of life we spoke about how you can think the game is stupid to IM that we make ourselves out of our own imagination and it can feel unfair at times but if one knows this principle they can get out
of the position they're in and really it is it to play the game effectively you'd have to start becoming imaginative and not really rely solely upon your own intelligence and yeah your own knowledge you would have to go beyond these things and imagine yourself the way you want to be above your knowledge you're above your reason above your doubt you go above all of these things that you otherwise see from your perspective and you get in so your imagination puts you in touch with different states of Consciousness that you might doubt your senses doubt it
that's for sure and your your reason doubts it and you might doubt it as well but it puts you in touch with these states of Consciousness that you otherwise have to believe in and become imaginative and Grant reality to these things that play this game effectively then we spoke about how there is no fiction that if the premise is true that imaginary creates reality then there can't be fiction and so when you go within yourself and you see yourself the way you want to be that's not a fictional you it's not just imaginary don't don't
ever think it's just imaginary it put you in touch with a certain state of conscious it put you in touch with a certain version of you that you otherwise can believe or not believe but if you to believe it is to become aware that you already are that thing that's the way to move inside is to see that it's not fiction you already are that and that's how you move it's so we move effectively through assumption on the inside we move effectively through different states of being on the inside through assumption through assuming we already
are and then we spoke about imagining creat reality and how how the the the girl did not leave herself in a state of crying when she was in distress the rain she decided to change her tears into the salt and she decided uh the salt of the of the ocean and she she changed her imaginal really she changed her circumstance in imagination to being in Samoa even though she wasn't necessarily there in the moment she was actually in a pretty distressful position but she imagined Beyond her reality she put third level Vision into she put
these symbolic representations into a narrative and created that narrative for herself and then she received the money to go and so you can see how she used uh second and third Vision in that story to create this narrative that implied that she was in Samoa the way she wanted to be and then in the real man we spoke about how we're here to change the imaginal you the the one in imagination is the one that you have that's where you move inside that's actually who you are and that's more core to you than simply the
Flesh and Bones that we wear that the what I'm imagining what I'm doing on the inside side is more me than it is this flesh and Bone and what I do on the inside I'm creating myself out of my own imagination what I'm believing in my own imagination that is what I'm creating myself out of and in this lecture he quotes George Bernard Shaw and he says some men see things as they are and say why I dream of things in every were and say why not and he relates this to the story of Christ
that Neville says I just believe in the story of Christ if that's the pattern to to save me then I'm going to believe in it I say why not but he also relates that to on this level he relates that to again changing and moving in the inside that you imagine yourself the way you want to be and say why not why doubt it you know why doubt the dream why doubt a dream you know dreams are not meant to be doubted they're meant to be believed in and you meant you're just like Carl y
you credited reality and then to move on I'm just kind of going through this quickly we talked about I really changed the title of this which is forgiveness creates reality but he really equates imagining in this case to forgiveness which is can you partake in the nature of its opposite forgiveness is one and the individual's ability to partake in the nature of its opposite and so you see how all of this remember the nature of its opposite is an AFF fiction the nature of his opposite is the way you play the game is to entertain
yourself with it the nature of its opposite is using three a third level Vision um you're crediting at reality the nature of its opposite you're counting the costs which requires you to let go of what you otherwise are thinking and entertain yourself with the nature of its opposite if you do practice this then you are living by this belief you exercising Jacob you can see how all of it starts to link together it's really just it's saying the same thing just differently but for me that has always helped me saying something really simple in a
one one quote fashion just never did it for me I need I had a lot of questions and I had a lot of I needed a lot of answers and so for me this really paints a beautiful story of what I'm supposed to do in because certain scenarios feel different than others but in reality it's the same practice it's the same discipline and you can see how all of what he's saying and really to me what it's coming down to is again it's yielding it's the real practice for me you can call it forgiveness you
can call it imagining I always see it as a form of surrender a form of yielding that is what I've always seen this I I've seen it work as crediting reality is a form of to me yielding to it you know when I say that when Carl Yung credited reality he started to follow the man in his imagination he was in a sense surrendering to to his imagination like he was going to allow it he was going to entertain itself he was and in this case he entertained the opposite right cuz at first he called
it a fantasy he called it an apparition but then he decided to entertain it for a moment what's the nature of this opposite what would be you'd have to say it's reality and so he entertained it as reality and so there are other people who decide in their moments of in life to just to uh credit their own imagination as reality even if you don't know this work you can people do this all the time they decide to just do it one day they just cast their bread upon water they just do it they just
entertain the nature of its opposite they say this is a fantasy within me but I'm just going to allow it for the moment to be a reality and so I always the way I practice it too is like before you fall asleep feel after something feel after some type of Brilliance or some type of beauty or some type of wonder inside of you don't try to solve a problem just feel it credit it reality as well or or dream it or imagine it and just entertain a a the nature of that opposite which is in
this case fantasy or reality if you see it as fantasy try to entertain it as a as a reality within you and you'll see that you'll you'll start to follow that man in a sense you start to follow the dream so I just wanted to give a brief overview on this just to kind of just to kind you know it's good to have this kind of overiew where you see how it's all kind of linked up and and I'm not picking these lectures on purpose to do this it's more that I've just noticed um a
pattern in a lot of his lectures and I try to just bring that thread and um weave some type of image together and I'm noticing that there's always there's always a correlation but he says it differently in different lectures that really spark Clarity to me so yeah I hope that this kind of helped um give an overview and that if you know for those who are following along and if you haven't followed along too well I mean this will kind of just jump start and help you understand what's what's really happening in these lectures and
so I'm going to end that one here and I just want to let everybody know I do live q&as where you know I answer questions and do some live talking for the members Channel and I also offer one-on ones so if that interests you just just email me and you can get the in the description you get all the information there but this week I'm doing actually a public live so it's going to be on Friday December 13th at 2:30 Eastern Standard Time hope to see you there and um again thank you guys for listening
