Prayer & Meditation

Neville Goddard described prayer as accepting the feeling of the wish fulfilled. Instead of directing a request toward a distant power, the person becomes quiet and gives the answered prayer the reality of a present experience.

Meditation also deals with attention, silence, and awareness of "I AM." Neville sometimes used a formal imaginal act; at other times he remained with a phrase, a question, or simple awareness. Prayer supplies the accepted end, while meditation quiets attention enough for that end to feel present.
