The Way

Many of the Psalms begin with the phrase “To the choir master ,” or “To the chief musician.” At first glance, this may seem like a musical direction. But when read through the deeper symbolic understanding taught by Neville Goddard, it reveals something intimate: it is not a note to an external temple musician, but a spiritual instruction directed within. "If I make use of the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a sounding brass, or a clashing cymbal." — 1 Corinthians 13:1 The choir master represents the inner conductor — the ordering principle in your mind that brings all thoughts and feelings into harmony. This inner conductor is none other than Elohim — the plural “gods,” “rulers,” “judges,” and “mighty ones” within you . According to Strong’s Concordance, Elohim is a plural noun that points to the many forces within consciousness: your assumptions, moods, and self-concepts. Neville taught that Elohim —  God —  is not an external god but your ow...

Throughout the Scriptures, the horn appears again and again as a herald of momentous change—sounding alarms, summoning action, and ushering in transformation. Seen through Neville Goddard’s Law of Assumption, the horn becomes a perfect emblem of how our inner beliefs, when vibrationally “amplified,” reshape both consciousness and the world around us. Horns as Amplifiers of Inner Assumptions Biblical horns—often fashioned as ram’s horns (shofar)—serve to magnify sound. In the same way, our deeply held assumptions act like spiritual trumpets: the more feeling and conviction we pour into them, the more forcefully they echo into the subconscious, precipitating real-world change. Neville taught that imagination and feeling are the causal energies of manifestation; horns simply dramatize this principle in physical form. Joshua’s Trumpet and the Walls of Jericho “So the priests blew the trumpets, and when the people heard the sound, they shouted with a great shout—and the wall fell down fla...

In the language of Scripture, symbols speak louder than facts. Among them, the harp stands out — delicate, tuned, and profoundly alive. It doesn’t thunder like a trumpet or strike like a sword. Instead, it plays — gently, inwardly, calling forth feeling. The harp is imagination. And its strings are tied to the heart. When David takes up the harp to soothe Saul, it’s not merely sound — it’s spirit. Saul, troubled and restless, represents the old self: reactive, fearful, bound by the senses. David, the symbol of divine awareness and awakened imagination, does not fight him. He plays. He brings harmony to the dissonance through inward poise. This is what imagination does when rooted in the heart: It brings order to chaos. Peace to noise. Vision to despair. And yet in Psalm 137 , the people hang their harps upon the willows. In exile, they say: "How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land?" Their imagination — the bridge between what is and what could be — is sil...

Throughout the Bible, music and dancing accompany some of the most powerful scenes of transformation, restoration, and celebration. But beneath the surface, these elements speak not just of outward events—but of inner spiritual processes. According to Neville Goddard, the Bible is not secular history but a spiritual manual written in symbolic language, showing how imagination shapes reality. In that light: Music symbolises the tuning of the imagination—aligning the inner world to the desired state. Dancing symbolises praise—the spontaneous expression that bursts forth when the state is fully accepted as real. Together, they represent the complete arc of manifestation: from inner harmony to outward joy. Music as the Tuning of Imagination “But now bring me a minstrel.” And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the Lord came upon him. — 2 Kings 3:15 (KJV) When the prophet Elisha needed revelation, he didn’t begin with action—he asked for music. The music p...
