Questions about the method
Did Neville Goddard write this manual?
No. We wrote it in 2026 from his books and talks. The instructions are his, and each short quote carries its source.
Is SATS part of the method?
The drowsy state is. The word is not: fans say SATS for his state akin to sleep, and those letters appear nowhere in his books or talks.
Do I need to do all seven?
No. Pick one and run it for a week before you judge it.
Does the method work?
We make no promise about results. In his 1944 foreword he asked readers to practice and let personal success do the convincing.
Is the method the same as the law of assumption?
The law of assumption is the idea. These exercises are how he told people to practice it.
