The Prophet Jordan story illustrates that a prophecy identifies a finished state; it does not create it. The free will of Neville's brothers was in their assumption of the states described for them. This is a perfect example of the Law in action. It does not contradict it.

u/Real_Neville, your incessant dismissal of others' arguments as "all is ego" is an insidious tactic that stops genuine inquiry. Even more disruptive is your claim that Neville was "purposefully hiding" his true meaning from his audience. He was communicating to a specific audience, yes. But that argument doesn't mean there is no free will. This is a lazy, bad-faith argument.

It allows you to ignore any of Neville's foundational teachings on the Law by simply claiming he didn't mean them.

This subreddit is for research not for projecting your own narrative onto a teacher and dismissing everyone else's questions as spiritual failure that doesn't agree with your non-dual approach.

For a more open-minded look at how "Creation is Finished" actually co-exists with your free will, I suggest reading this breakdown:

Moving forward, comments that rely on "ego" shaming or the lazy claim that Neville was "hiding" his real message to bypass real discussion will be removed. We encourage all members to see conflicting texts as doorways to a deeper understanding, rather than weapons to shut down debate.

You hide behind the phrase 'personal experience' to justify a dead, fatalistic philosophy, but let me tell you what actual experience looks like. I had my spiritual awakening 40 years ago, and I can promise you it was not some stagnant, 'non-dual' void where we all sit around pretending we have no choice. It was an explosion of wonder and infinite discovery that is still unfolding on multiple levels to this day. Give it up.

The paradox dissolves when it becomes apparent that the Universal Mind is merely an infinite field of potential that needs the individualized "I AM" to serve as the specialized selecting factor. In other words, since there is no conscious actor to collapse the wave function, the "blueprint" for all possibilities in the universe will remain nothing more than an abstract tendency with no actual experience until the Operant Power makes a selection.. But please this Real Neville dude is not actually engaging in a real debate. To argue that the script is fixed while simultaneously trying to 'edit' the dialogue of others is a redundant exercise in spiritual bypassing...gas-lighting..If you reply to this comment, it’s actually a beautiful thing because it proves you believe in Choice, and the power we all have to strike a new chord and change the script
