Neville Goddard on revision

“This going into the past and replaying a scene of the past in imagination as it ought to have been played the first time, I call revision - and revision results in repeal.”

“It is a most healthy and productive exercise to daily relive the day as you wish you had lived it, revising the scenes to make them conform to your ideals.”

“He changes his future as he revises his day.”

“Try to revise your day every night before falling asleep.”

“Forgiveness is, in fact, experiencing in imagination the revised version of the day, experiencing in imagination what you wish you had experienced in the flesh.”

“Every time one really forgives – that is, every time one relives the event as it should have been lived – one is born again.”

“The causes of any present evil are the unrevised scenes of the past.”

“Every revision is a victory over himself and therefore a victory over his enemy.”

“To revise the past is to re-construct it with new content.”

“If a man begins to revise even a little of the vexations and troubles of the day, then he begins to work practically on himself.”

“The one who discovers the secret of revision cannot do otherwise than let himself be guided by love.”

“It is to the pruning shears of revision that we owe our prime fruit.”

“Mentally rewrite it and make it conform to the news you wish you had received.”

“And it's fixed, as you say, but I'm quite sure one could go back and revise that past and change it.”

“Forgiveness is a matter of deliberately withdrawing attention from the unrevised day and giving it full strength, and joyously, to the revised day.”

“You can revise the day to please yourself and by experiencing in imagination the revised speech and actions not only modify the trend of your life story but turn all its discords into harmonies.”

“Because imagining creates reality, we can carry revision to the extreme and revise a scene that would be otherwise unforgivable.”

“Revision is of greatest importance when the motive is to change oneself, when there is a sincere desire to be something different, when the longing is to awaken the ideal active spirit of forgiveness.”
