The Ethiopian rabbi and mystic who was Neville Goddard’s primary teacher in New York City. He taught Neville the Law of Assumption and the Kabbalistic interpretation of Scripture.

The act of taking on the feeling of the wish fulfilled. To assume is to treat a desire as a present fact, regardless of contradictory evidence from the five senses.

The only reality. Pure awareness is the “I AM” consciousness that precedes all labels, titles, and conditions in the physical world.

The realization that one’s imagination is actually God in action. When imagination is “awakened,” the individual no longer feels like a victim of circumstance.

The series of natural, often seemingly mundane events that occur after an assumption is made, which lead directly to the manifestation of the desire. One does not need to force this bridge; it unfolds automatically.

The spiritual state of already possessing or being that which you desire. In the Law of Assumption, “being” precedes “having.”

A fixed mental attitude. To believe is to accept something as true. In Conscious Creation, we change our beliefs to change our world.

The cause and substance of the entire world. Everything you see and experience is a manifestation of your specific state of consciousness.

In Neville’s teachings, Christ is not a historical figure but the power and wisdom of God within man—specifically, the Human Imagination.

The moment an idea or desire is accepted by the subconscious mind as a fact. This is the “spiritual pregnancy” that eventually births the manifestation.

The concept that people in your reality have no free will separate from your concept of them. They reflect your internal beliefs, assumptions, and inner conversations back to you.

The final destination of a desire. Practicing the “End State” means living from the moment after your wish has already been fulfilled.

The title of Neville’s most famous book and its core message: it is not the thought, but the *feeling* of the reality of the state that impresses the subconscious.

The realm of imagination where all possibilities exist simultaneously. While the 3D world is restricted by time and space, the 4D is where we “plant” our desires.

The name of God in man. Whatever you attach to “I AM” (e.g., I am wealthy, I am loved), you must eventually become in the physical world.

The silent dialogue you carry on with yourself throughout the day. These must be aligned with your wish fulfilled to manifest successfully.

The spiritual law stating that whatever you assume to be true—and persist in that assumption—will harden into fact.

The practice of mentally and emotionally occupying the version of yourself that already has your desire, regardless of what the 3D world shows.

The disciplined practice of monitoring and redirecting thoughts and inner speech to ensure they consistently match the state of the wish fulfilled.

The physical crystallization of an internal state. It is the evidence of things seen after they have been felt in the imagination.

The act of remaining loyal to your new assumption even when the 3D world provides evidence to the contrary. Persistence is the hallmark of the successful creator.

A method where you review your day at night and “re-edit” any unfavorable events into the way you would have preferred them to happen.

Rewriting the past in your imagination to change the present and future. By changing the memory, you change the current vibration of your consciousness.

Responding emotionally to the 3D world in a way that reinforces the old, undesired state. Mastery involves learning not to react to unwanted evidence.

A drowsy, meditative state reached just before sleep or during deep relaxation. In this state, the subconscious is highly suggestible and open to being “impregnated” with a new assumption.

The point of mental rest after an assumption has been successfully impressed on the subconscious. You no longer feel the need to manifest because you feel you already have the thing.

The sum total of everything you believe about yourself. Changing your self-concept is the most powerful way to change your entire life experience.

A term used in modern Law of Assumption communities to refer to a specific individual with whom someone wants to manifest a relationship.

The three-dimensional world of the senses. It is considered a shadow or an “after-effect” of past imaginative acts, not the primary cause.

“Thinking Of” is viewing your desire from the outside (longing). “Thinking From” is seeing the world from the perspective of your desire already being fulfilled.

Specifically the sense of touch. Neville taught that by “entering the Western Gate” (feeling the texture of an object in imagination), you anchor the reality of the state more firmly.

The state of mind where you no longer desire the thing because you possess the conviction that it is already yours.
