Neville Goddard on love
Love runs through his radio talks and the later lectures: as the nature of God, as the way imagination should be used, and as a power that changes us into what we contemplate.
“You and I can contemplate an ideal, and become it by falling in love with it.”
“Everything else will pass away but love will endure forever.”
“We must be in love if we are to know what love is.”
“Love and hate have a magical transforming power, and we grow through their exercise into the likeness of what we contemplate.”
“If you would fall in love with what you really want to be, you would become it.”
“We must be the thing itself to actually know it spiritually. We must be in love to know love. We must be God to know God.”
“Love is the fundamental necessity of our life.”
“Love is our birthright.”
“The original birthplace of imagination is in love.”
“Love is not love if there is no beloved.”
“Love and fear are the mainspring of our mental machinery.”
“The man who really finds himself cannot do otherwise than let himself be guided by love.”
“So, do it lovingly. Whatever you do, do lovingly. I don't care what it is.”
“This meant a complete reversal of man’s normal attitude towards life from “I will love him if he first loves me”, to “He loves me, because I first loved him.””
“Remember that Love is always creative, causative in every sphere from the highest to the very lowest.”
“We must learn to know ourselves as Infinite Love, as good rather than evil.”
“But we can do the loving thing only when all we imagine is full of love for our neighbor.”
“Therefore, let us look at man through the eyes of imaginative love which is really seeing with the Eye of God.”
“Your feelings of love, hate or indifference all spring from your own consciousness.”
“Through the wise and loving use of imagination, man clothes and feeds Christ, and through ignorant and fearful misuse of imagination, man disrobes and scourges Christ.”
“Imaginative love lifts the invisible into sight and gives us water in the desert.”
“Whenever you are in doubt, do the loving thing, and you've done the right thing.”
