What Does Yielding To The Wish-Fulfilled Mean? - Edward Art (Neville Goddard Inspired)

so now that I've made this you know this playlist of daily trying to do daily lecture reading and and my own just take on these things I've gotten a lot of questions that the one consistent question I keep getting is is what does it mean to yield and can I explain a little bit more about yielding and that comes from the art of dying that lecture that's one of my favorite lectures I I highly recommend reading it just because it really satisfied me in my doubt because I couldn't let go of my own doubt I

I was afraid to let go of it and I think what I needed was to know that somebody else had the exact same doubt which is what if it doesn't work what if I because I had no problem really giving myself to this imaginal act I had no problem imagining it in fact in fact having a pretty vivid imagination myself it can actually be very terrible because I can imagine all the wrong things and they actually feel very real to me and they feel awful but I can also Imagine wonderful things and they actually do

feel wonderful but I could never give myself to them I always felt this resistance within me to actually yield and give myself to this this what is only a dream a wonderful dream if that but but I always had this Reserve in the back of my mind which was I don't have a problem letting go and giving myself to it I'm just afraid it doesn't doesn't work if I do and every time I've ever let go of that feeling that doubt and just gave myself to it it worked every single time it didn't fail me

the times I failed was when I kept listening to that doubt and so that that that doubt that you feel it really it's really the price that you have to pay to yield and so yielding really is paying the price and the price is your worry and your doubt that's the yielding and so no matter what question comes up what reason comes up what doubt comes up do you want it if you want it then you have to give this up to be it because we we receive what we are not necessarily what we want

but we can become what we want if we're willing to give up what we've been told about ourselves let's say it's something on the outside told you and yet you believed it or you tell yourself certain things you know if you know yourself one way and you want to be different you will remain what you know if you want to be different you have to know yourself to be different and so that's why Neville says we don't get what we want we get what we are if you can understand that then you will become different

you will stop wanting and you'll start to become the thing you want to be and that involves a level of yielding and yielding doesn't yielding is it's really always the answer what I've learned from practicing it every time I go to imagine either for someone or for myself there's always that little resistance that I have to let go of it's always there and then the moment I yield I gently yield it gets easier and easier next thing you know it becomes smoother in the inside the yielding is is really the oil that makes it smooth

again it makes you imagine smoothly and so the best way I can describe yielding it's like you're like it's just like what William Blake said it's like you're falling backwards like just the same way when you fall backwards you let go you realize there's nothing you can do to move your arms as much as you want move your legs you're falling backwards there's nothing you can't grab onto anything you're letting go completely just the same way you fall asleep at night you can't fall asleep unless you let go anyone who's had insomnia knows this anyone

who has difficulty sleeping knows that you're not letting go you can't your mind's racing you're constantly thinking thoughts and but all of a sudden you get so tired you let go and the next thing you know you fall asleep you don't you never really remember exactly when but you fall asleep and then you wake up hours later and maybe you went on some journey within yourself on the depths of yourself you found yourself in a dream doing this that and the other but then you come back here and that dream might have changed you it

might have shown you something but regardless you don't remember exactly when you fell sleep you yield you yield you surrender is another way of saying you surrender to it surrender yourself yourself to being different you can come up with a million reasons all the time and you can create one by the day every day you can create a reason as to why you can't be in a certain State even though you want it you can create reasons I I created thousands of reasons why I couldn't every day I created a reason it was either something

from my past something in the future can go wrong it was what someone else said I had to obey the words of other people because I thought I had to and it and it just no matter how many times I heard Neville say what is does it matter what they think if it works what does it matter it's like I that I just it didn't penetrate my mind enough I just still it still mattered and then all of a sudden you yield and then you start to become that and the next thing you know people

will still talk and say the same things and it doesn't matter because you start moving into you start to create yourself out of your own imagination so so if I create if man creates himself out of his own imagination then I have to and I and I receive what I know then I have to become something different I have to actually become it inside myself I can't just want it all the time I have to actually start being it and then little by little this imaginal self of your starts to push itself out into the

world and you next thing you know people have to greet it it doesn't then you realize it doesn't really matter what they say what matters is what I'm imagining it's not what other say creates reality it's imagining creates reality and what am I imagining God's name is not not he is or she is it's I am and the moment you start to go well well they said this and so therefore well that's not your God they they is not your God it's I am what am I doing inside I'm doing something I'm believing in the

words of other people I'm believing that I'm believing in my reason even though I can see Within Myself that it's already done I can see within myself that I already am I'm going to look towards my reason and believe my reason because my reason feels true but really can I persuade myself just like Isaac and Ja Jacob can I persuade myself to where what I desire feels true to me and it's no longer a desire it gets transformed into a fulfillment and I accept this fulfillment I yield to it even though my reason tells me

this even though all the words have told me this even though I've told myself something for many years can I let go of it that's another word of saying yield is Letting Go and maybe there's just needs to be different words that should be added to yield yield just it made sense to me when I heard it once I heard you yield to it it's like it you know what it feels like it almost feels like an explosion as Neville says it's like you you are about to you're about to let go and believe this

and yet you feel at times I notice my heart would race you feel a deep fear you feel doubts coming you feel like all of this attack is happening and all these reasons start coming and then you really feel like it's about to explode the moment you yield you let go it's like you've accepted it and all of a sudden all of that washes away it's like it didn't even matter that's what it feels it always feels like it's building up it's building up it's building up all this doubt is building up and next thing

you know you accept it and it's just it just explodes and there's no more doubt there's no more all it's replaced with is relief and peace and com and composure and you know it you know yourself to be different now you moved some State you can't deny it you can go back if you want but you can't deny you've moved that's another thing I couldn't do is that when I would move into a certain state of mind that I wanted to be in I couldn't deny it I would doubt it but I couldn't deny that

I moved inside and when I couldn't when I realize I can't deny I moved that's when I realized that yielding is the answer because I always moved when I yield when I Let Go are surrender these are just the same synonyms this the same thing that I'm saying it's always this climax it feels like it leads to this climax of letting go of yielding and he says so you play your last card and you say to yourself what if it doesn't work you let that go you don't even answer it you yield the answer is

in your yielding if you're looking for an answer that's the answer it's not in your it's not going to be found in trying to answer a what if you won't know that's another thing you have to accept you don't know when or how you yield it really is that old saying of you jump and then the the net will appear I mean that's that's essentially how it always feels like for me at least it always it always feels like that I always think I I can't or it can't but I see that it it did

and then I believe it did and it's always comes from me letting the I can't go it always works that way and it really hasn't worked a different way and so someone comes to you they start telling you something and that is unfortunate and you want to imagine something fortunate for them and you think I don't see how this could happen but I yield to it I let go I yield to the Unseen I just give myself to it and it requires of me it's always the price to pay is my reason my doubts my

worries are always the price I have to pay to get there and I never regret it I have never regretted yielding and so that's what I mean by yielding that's what I mean what is it what is it what does it mean to yield to the wish fulfilled that's that's how I I took it from his lectures and this is this is this my ideas now you might have a different way of saying it a different way of approaching it but this is just what I learned from Nevels this is what I've learned from my

own practice it always it's a lot easier it gets easier um it's just in the beginning when you're starting and it feels like when the pressures are on and you feel it's urgent and you feel you feel the it feels like a like a very climactic moment where you have to you have to accept you know Neville has a lecture called impotence you have to accept impotence you can't do anything all you can do is accept this if you accept that you will accept it if you realize that you you can't turn you want to

turn to somebody you want to run to someone and have them fix all your problems you want this but you realize you can't go anywhere can't escape your own imagining all I can do is direct it all I can do is change it all I can do is imagine myself differently when you do that you will do it when you see there's no other option God's name is not he is or she is it's I am when you see that you won't go to another you will yield to that you will change so that's what

I mean by it I just I want to answer that question because I find it important because and it it doesn't matter what it is in front of you and that can be difficult to accept but the circumstance doesn't matter can you like before you sleep tonight can you yield into something different regardless of everything can you do it and you'll see that you can will you do it is another question you can do it but will you do this will you give up your worry right now and you can do it for a moment

it doesn't have to be perfect you just Neville when he said he imagined himself s out of the army it wasn't like a perfect image he just he yielded to it though the best he could so can you do it the best you can can you let go and yield and no longer um and give up the question of what if it doesn't work can you let that go cuz that was a big worry of mine like I had I was like yeah I can I can believe this but like what if me beli in

it like nothing happens I was always a fear of mine and every time I've ever let that go it always it always seem to work so that's my that's my answer on this I'm obviously going to speak more about this because there there to me this is one of the most important parts of what Neville has spoken when it comes to imagine I find the yielding part to be and that's why he put a um a chapter in his book called impotence and it's Empower of your awareness I would recommend you read it because it's

basically describing this he you know he could have called it yielding but it's really the same idea um so um I'm I'm going to end this one here but I hope that kind of gives some clarity on this this idea of yielding but again um thank you guys for listening and also I'm going live this Friday um December 6th at 2:30 p.m. for members so hope to see you there and again thank you guys for listening
