What does Neville have to say about scripting, and why am I writing this?
Neville has plenty to say about scripting, and uses examples in his teachings to show us the power of scripting.
One of the first examples I can think of is the script writer in Hollywood. His producer had ever only called his scripts good. By the power of imagining the script writer took the producer from saying, good, to saying, absolutely sensational. By the power of imagining the script writer advanced his producer to go from good to great, then to absolutely sensational.
Another example was of the woman who had a rift between her, and her son, her daughter-in-law, and grandson. She desired reconciliation, so she wrote herself 2 letters, one from her daughter-in-law, expressing they missed her, and one from her grandson, saying, I love you Grandmother, thanking her for a birthday present, and telling her he had also missed her. Every day she reread the letters, feeling the joy of them. On the eighth day the exact letters she had written to herself came in her mail. Written by her daughter-in-law and grandson, they were identical to the letters she had written.
This quote from Neville nicely encapsulates scripting~"Take the conversations with your friends today, were they pleasant, were
they arguments, no matter what it is, were they negative?
Then
Rewrite the SCRIPT and just imagine the conversation to have taken place
that now you are rewriting for the first time. And it will take place,
for everything in your world that you behold, though it appears without,
it is within, in your imagination. And this wonderful imagination of
yours is Christ Jesus. Imagination is the actual habitation of every
created thing. No matter what you see in the world, it springs from your
imagination." The Pruning Shears of Revision
Which brings me to the point of this article. We are instructed to rewrite the script, not to keep dwelling on the same old script.
Recently, I wrote a post because I noticed a trend of complaining posts. This is what I wrote. I am going to write a book called The Ten Commandments of Neville Goddard. Here is the first commandment. Thou shalt not get online and script out the 3D reality that opposes one's desire. We know by the previous examples cited that scripting is powerful. What do you think the power of physically writing out grievances does? It impresses the mind with the old story. Nothing in the world will change, if one keeps dwelling on the old story. As a matter of fact, we know by the example of the imaginal letter writing that whatever we impress on our minds becomes 3D reality.
Everything in our world starts inside, in our own imagination. If change is desired it starts within. Repent means to change your mind. So change your mind inside, and the outside will reflect the change. Script a new story. Thank you, for my wonderful life, full of abundance and love. Script a new story and watch it unfold. Your mind is a garden, hedge it about with love and fill it with lovely thoughts, and you will find the most beautiful things happen when you write a beautiful script.
Blessings to every one of you.
