"The Law & the Promise" includes numerous success stories which are genuinely inspiring. His message is simple but powerful: Man is all Imagination. Therefore, man must be where he is in imagination, for his imagination is himself.
This ability to mentally move from things as they are to things as they ought to be, is one of the most important discoveries that man can make. It reveals man as a center of imagining with powers of intervention which enable him to alter the course of observed events, moving from success to success through a series of mental transformations of nature, of others, and himself. When man finally identifies himself with his Imagination rather than his senses, he has at long last discovered the core of reality.
Live as though the wish had come, even though it is yet to come, and you will shorten the period of waiting. The world is imaginal, not mechanistic. Imaginal acts - not blind fate - determine the course of history.
If man does not always create in the full sense of the word, it is because he is not faithful to his vision, or else he thinks of what he wants rather than from his wish fulfilled.
God lives within us and we activate God's power through the use of our imagination.
Neville said people pay too little attention to what he called "this priceless gift"- the Human Imagination- without realizing that our imagination is constantly creating our outside world. He defined "the Law" as our imagination in action, and "the promise" as the mystical moment when we completely realize and accept that we are God!
