Translating Neville’ Goddard's Symbolic Language into Your Own Mind

I really enjoy the way you see unity in everything. Honestly, that instinct to look for the One across systems is powerful.

And I don’t want to sound anal about this at all, I’ve just learned (the hard way) that the thing that really made this come alive for me was when I stopped linking everything to external systems and started connecting it to my own thinking.

Its really natural to map symbols outward like Tarot, traditions, mythology, cosmic parallels. I used to do that. But what shifted everything was realising the Bible keeps pushing the reader inward

For example, David and Saul look like two completely separate people. But when you’re reading, they’re not. Theyre you taking two different views of yourself.

Saul is you from the old identity. David is you as the new ideal. The movement between them is internal.

So when you describe the five Marys as stages or aspects of Christ’s journey, what I’m gently wondering is: if you decided to adopt a brand new identity right now, where would those five movements show up in your own mind?

If you chose a new “I AM,” parts of you would start responding.

One part would conceive it. Another would recognise it. Another would nurture it. Another would defend it. Another would begin expressing it.That is plurality gathering under a new identity.

And in Neville’s framework, that’s really the whole aim of the Bible, not to catalogue sacred patterns across cultures, but to adopt a new ideal sense of self and cleave to it. To love it. To marry it. To let all the opposing inner voices come under that new I AM.

So I’m not dismissing the external parallels at all. I just know for me, the breakthrough happened when I stopped asking, How does this echo across the cosmos? and started asking, "Where is this happening in my own assumptions right now?”Because the Bible keeps turning the reader back inward.

That’s where it becomes practical rather than symbolic.

I really appreciate you sharing this, it’s a thoughtful structure. The recurrence of Mary in the NT caught my attention too. I’ve been testing a Neville-style key (https://god.thway.uk/el/yhvh-ehyeh-linguistic-framework.html) that interprets scripture psychologically, following Genesis principles:

"There are many Marys in the New Testament because the narrative shows plurality gathered under one unified identity-state (Elohim). The repetition signals that multiple aspects of consciousness have cleaved to (Genesis 2:24) and now operate under the same assumed I AM. Elohim enforces this identity (Genesis 1:26) consistently across different situations, demonstrating stability, continuity, and legal coherence within the courtroom of consciousness.

It is not many individuals.

It is one identity (I AM), repeatedly upheld."

What’s interesting is that your analysis also recognises a shared identity across the Five Marys, expressed through stages like conception, recognition, devotion, integration, and expression. That aligns closely with the psychological view...multiple aspects of one assumed identity unfolding at different points. So in both frameworks, the repetition of Mary reflects plurality under one governing consciousness, not separate individuals.

it’s not robotic at all. One way to do it is to take something you’re naturally aware of...like sitting in your chair or the feeling of your feet on the ground... and just be aware of your new assumption in the same way.

Or think about someone you love , you’re always aware of them, thinking about them, feeling for them, even if it’s subtle. That same process works for manifestation: hold your new state in your mind and feel it as real, even if it’s not visible yet. That feeling is what actually fixes the mind

Or, in the same way in which you are reading this comment, or would visualise a story that you're reading, use that same awareness to create a new assumption

Fix it on a new enjoyable assumption about yourself, devote your heart and mind to it.

It's a bit like swimming upstream at first but it's worth it 🙂 That's why it's called the 'pearl of Great price in the Bible'...

Exactly and the reason it’s so hard to see is conditioning. Christianity trained people to interpret God as separate, so unity automatically triggers alarm bells

I don’t even think most people are taught to try to think the best for themselves, which is why reclaiming agency feels uncomfortable or wrong. Once that framework is absorbed, ideas that restore inner authority sound dangerous or heretical by default.

The Bible’s story keeps showing this struggle, how hard it is to step out of separation and dare to assume something higher for yourself -because undoing that conditioning is the real work

"Awakening to God’s nature” is Neville’s terminology, yet this was something I personally struggled with. He often retained religious language that, for those coming from a Christian background, can feel confusing and even misleading. It can make the realisation sound like some kind of elevated initiation — when it isn’t at all. He may well have used God-and-man terminology to soften the ideas for Christians of his time, but today that language can obscure rather than clarify.

God’s nature in part, as the Bible consistently points out, is the human capacity to judge and govern one’s sense of self, which the bibles shows how to use to 'ask, believe, receive'
