so this lecture is from 1964 and it's called in a vision of the night now if you read these lectures by yourself you will know that I don't speak much on the Redemption part of what Neville's speaking about as far as being redeemed in Christ and his ideas of it and his experiences of it and the re there's a reason why I don't um I'm sort of waiting for the right lecture to talk about it because certain lectures speaks about it more clearly than others but in this one I think I still think we should
speak more about what we spoke about as far as third vision goes now this one he speaks about how you know when you have a dream sometimes you can be its servant and other times you can be its master and when we fall asleep at night we sort of feel sort of Taken like a victim to the dream and we become a passenger sort of watching it kind of happen and other times we become awakened inside of it and then the moment you become awake inside of a dream is when you start to control it
you start to change it you start to modify it and he's basically asking us to start you can start modifying it now and then you will become awake you'll start to see that there's a there's a big connection between what's happening within one person and what's happening without outside of them and for this lecture I'm going to have to read because I don't want to just shorten it and modify it with my own way of speaking because I I want to read what's there so he says let me share with you now A Story by
a man that is respected he goes on to say that this man is Carl Yung he says Carl Yung is one of the great great Giants of the mind if you name three you cannot omit the name of Yung in any list of these three names when it comes to understanding the workings of the human mind I'm assuming the other um the other name would be William James but he said this is what um Carl Yung said he said one night I lay awake thinking of a sudden death of a friend who Fe funeral took
place yesterday I was deeply concerned and suddenly I felt that he was in the room it seemed to me he was standing at the foot of the bed not as an apparition rather it seemed like an inner vision of him and then as I felt his presence there and saw him inwardly as it were because of my work I had to do something about it and so I explained to myself that it was fantasy but then I said to myself suppose it's not fantasy you have no proof that it is and that it is not
fantasy so why not give him the benefit of Doubt and credit him with reality no sooner had I made the decision to credit him with reality he turned and walked towards the door I was watching him walk towards the door and then he beckoned me to follow him and so in my imagination I followed him and he led me through a garden onto a road which led me to his home several hundred yards away when we got to his house he led me into his study then he went forward stood on a stool and reached
up and pointed to a volume a second book of a set of five they were all bound and red but he pointed to the second one on the second shelf from the top he was standing on a stool and as he pointed the second book all bound and red then the vision came to an end and I remained pondering on this change experience it was so strange and exciting to me that the next morning I thought I must investigate so I walked up to my neighbor's home and asked the Widow whether she would allow me
to go into her into the library and look something and she looked something up and she willingly granted I got into the library and there under the Shelf is a stool the very stool I saw in my vision I stood on the stool to reach the second shelf and there were five books bound and read translation from the novels by Emily Zola I picked the second one out and read its title and it's title was on death the legacy of death was the title now he said the contents of the book didn't mean much to
him but it was a title that was most significant and so Neville goes on to now say that basically the main part that he found out of this story that was important was that he credited with reality that he took what was otherwise in his imagination didn't think of it a fancy and credit it with reality and then it took upon and it started to take upon reality and I've shared that in other videos is that I don't try to add so many tones of reality to my imaginal acts I try to believe in them
first and then they start to become more and more real to me I start to accept them first um just like what Carl Jung did he that he AC he accepted he credited with reality and then it started to take upon the form of reality it wasn't just a fantasy you can dismiss things in your mind and say oh it's just fan it's not going to ever happen it's not real but when you start to accept these things as reality they start to take upon reality that's how this works and then he goes on to
say he goes how can you brush this he's talking about Carl Jung's experience how could he brush this off as coincidence like how can you do that you can't brush coincidence has no explanatory power you'll find that word used so much in common talk people would just mention coincidences as if as if it mean really just means nothing a strange incident happened yet it means absolutely nothing and don't look any further that's that's the feeling I get from when we say coincidence there's too many coincidence in my life for me to continue thinking about coincidence
that way you know I I noticed a lot of people I've talked to about this they have moments in their past where they realize about these coincidence that there was something within them that they felt something strange about it yet they didn't investigate it further and that's really all this is so you can say Yung just investigated this this imaginal act further this Vision further just like Neville when he said I will explore this regardless of consequences I will explore it and same goes for you when you go to imagine for yourself regardless of this
is you're going to credit with reality you're going to give it the reality that you other always want to give this dream you're going to stop making it a fantasy or stop making it a dream and and really what it had to do was about it had to do with his his death right and you know Neville goes on to quote scripture he says I'm the god of the living and not of the dead and Neville's so confident that we will all survive this this world of death this realm of death that we're in and
we will survive it but then I'm I'm going to read him now because I'm going to read Neville because he goes on you know step by step basically to to speak on this and I don't want to I don't want to change it so he says now it brings me to this you sit down to change your world and you want something better than than what you have and so you begin to conjure a certain scene that would imply the Fulfillment of your dream you begin to conjure it the average person cannot control their mind
long enough to go from A to B if for instance I assume that I I am what reason denies and my what my senses deny and at the very moment of my assumption I think of all the debts and what people know to be me I take it off that doesn't fit it's like a tight shoe it doesn't quite fit me and so I take off that assumption if I could only put on the Assumption now what's the next up I assume that I am who I want to be if I were if it were
true my friends would know it I wouldn't hide it from them in fact it should be so obvious it were true they would they should see it and the next step the B step would be to bring into my mind's eye and let them see me as they would see me were true now what's the next step well C he's basically listening a b or c then he said c is the third step he says could they keep the secret no they would have to discuss it with friends I would EAS drop and listen to
their discussion of the good fortune that has befallen me and so I would listen have you heard the good news one would say to the other you know what has happened to him you who would have thought that that he could ever get that and I just listen and then I then they tell a story I'm Conjuring up the whole thing I know I am and but I can endow it with reality and not say it's a fantasy or can I endow it with reality can I credit it with reality not say it's a fantasy
it's not an apparition be but because not a person is before me not a thing is before me that is not an apparition so I would say it's a fantasy fantasy all conjured up my imagination but if I could say what Carl Jung said and give it give it now the benefit of the doubt and credit with reality the minute I credit with reality I'm believing whatsoever you ask in faith believe you have received it you will and so I want to stop there for a second again that's he's just he's explaining what one needs
to do when you imagine um I've heard it differently in my own dreams actually where you want to almost feel like a a cons of you almost want to feel like you almost want to let go of the feeling that you're I'm only imagining this you want to let go of that while you're imagining you don't want to keep that feeling there you want to take that off um my issue was never that I couldn't think of it or imagine it it's that some part of me was always I did I always felt this feeling
of well I'm only imagining this the only way to let that go was I just stopped stopped listening to it and the moment I stopped list listening to it and accepted the imaginal ACT that's when it became real to me and then you sort of just let it happen to you that's what I've noticed that you almost want to set the whole thing up and then it happened to you meaning that you you aren't in control of it anymore you set the whole thing up and then you sort of just like press the play button
and it starts to just go that's how I have always seen it but I'm going to go continue in reading this he says so man if he can only control his imagination between A and B he doesn't have to go to C just from A to B take the ne take the first step you assume the end the end is where you begin my end is my beginning so I assume the end I am the man I want to be were it true I would be known by my friends first so i' bring them to
my mind's eye and they see me I let them see me if if I want to talk with them accept their congratulations and not duck but really hold my head up high proud of what H what has happened to me I accept the congratulations then I turn from what is the third step and let them talk between themselves I'm listening to all of it and I'm making it all real to me and then I go to into my wonderful state that is true I begin to make plans of things that I would do going to
do now and then in this simple little drama I now credit it with reality I give it reality and then I see and test God come and test me and then he quotes scripture he says come and test me and see that I will not open the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing so great that you haven't had room on Earth to receive it so come and test me Test the Lord and see and he says I give it all the tones of reality I try to give it all tones of reality all
the sensory vividness that I can muster and whenever I do it it works again for me I I think the the tones of reality I've never really had an issue with seeing clearly in my mind I just didn't believe in it I didn't I didn't trust it I didn't trust it I it's like when someone's telling you something and you just feel I don't trust this person that that's what I would do with myself I didn't realize I was doing that to myself for a long time but I realized that the way to trust it
is to let go and yield that's the way to trust it so you set the whole thing up and you give yourself entirely to it you you almost hand yourself over to it you let go and just give it and credit with reality now he's just strictly speaking in this case of changing one's world or changing oneself but in Carl Yung skates you can do the same thing I've done it with myself where I've imagined certain I found myself in certain scenarios and scenes Within Me certain situations that I credit with reality that led me
to it's almost like you're exploring your own imagination you're you're letting it happen in a sense just letting it sort of develop before you um you don't try to change it you just let it happen but if you want to change it if you want to modify certain things you can take this approach that Neville gives and you can start there uh start with people around you you don't have um I don't even think it has to be people you know sometimes I actually have I just like to over listen I just hear words at
times I just hear a conversation it'll be all black in my mind and yet I'll just hear something and I'll just accept it other times I will see it I will visualize it but it doesn't I've noticed that it's more about believing in its reality that makes it a reality than it is about becoming perfect for the details that those don't matter as much than it is about crediting reality but I found this lecture interesting you know I haven't gotten into the the the Redemption parts of it yet where he speaks about Christ and I
want to but for this one I just want to I found it interesting that he brought up Carl Yung and and spoke about how you know he didn't consider himself crazy for crediting it with reality he didn't call himself mad and I didn't call I didn't at first I I I was never going to call myself crazy for believing in an imaginal act within me but I was afraid to because I didn't know the consequences that's what I was scared I never I never considered myself to go mad so it's interesting how other people explored
their imaginations and decided to credit it with reality even though really nothing told them to do it they just did it on their own accord and and you can apply that same same belief to to yourself and your own life but I'm going to end this one here um I found it interesting I said like I said I want to speak also as well on on his ideas of redemption and Neville's mystical experiences I find them I find them um interesting as well and I've had my own that I want to um parallel with his
but that's it for this one and I just want to notify everybody I also do live talking and q&as as well if that interests you it's for members um it's on the members channel so hope to see you guys there and thank you guys for listening
