Why should one who works hard in metaphysics always seem to lack?

Because he has not really applied metaphysics. I am not speaking of a mamby-pamby approach to life, but a daily application of the law of consciousness. When you appropriate your good, there is no need for a man, or state, to act as a medium through which your good will come.


Living in a world of men, money is needed in my every day life. If I invite you to lunch tomorrow, I must pick up the check. When I leave the hotel, I must pay the bill. In order to take the train back to New York my railway fare must be paid. I need money and it has to be there. I am not going to say, "God knows best, and He knows I need money. "Rather, I will appropriate the money as though it were!


We must live boldly!
We must go through life as though we possessed what we want to possess.
Do not think that because you helped another, someone outside of you saw your good works and will give you something to ease your burden.
There is no one to do it for you.
You, yourself must go boldly on appropriating what your Father has already given you.
Neville, 1948
