Truth
Lecture Summary
The Truth That Sets You Free
In this lecture, Neville Goddard explores the nature of truth as it relates to consciousness and creation. Truth, for Neville, is not a fixed external fact but a living reality that shifts as our inner assumptions shift. The truth that sets you free is the truth of your own divine nature — that you are the operant power, that imagination creates reality, and that by assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled, you align yourself with the deepest truth of existence.
Truth
"Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." This is not a promise about external facts — it is a promise about the nature of consciousness itself.
The truth Neville speaks of is this: you are the operant power. Your imagination is God. What you assume to be true about yourself and your world becomes your lived experience.
Most men live in a world of appearances, mistaking the shadow for the substance. They believe that external conditions cause their inner states, when in fact the reverse is true.
The truth that sets you free is the recognition that you need not wait for the world to change. You can change your inner assumption now, and the world will follow.
Test this truth for yourself. Assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled. Persist in that assumption. And watch as the world rearranges itself to confirm your inner conviction.
