Every Natural Effect

Every natural effect has a spiritual cause and not a natural. A natural cause only seems. It is a delusion of the perishing, vegetable memory. We do not remember these moments in time when we imagined certain states. So when that imaginal state takes form so we can see it with the outer eye, we do not recognize our own harvest and deny that we had anything to do with these natural effects that are taking place in our world. Because our memory is faulty, we do not remember.

All events and circumstances in the physical world ('natural effects') originate from an imaginal act or assumption ('spiritual cause'). The failure to recognize this connection is due to faulty human memory, which forgets the initial imaginal act, leading to the delusion that natural causes are primary.

Fulfillment Of Gods Plan

So, I tell you there is no such thing as an accident in this world. No. There is no such thing as a natural cause. Every natural effect has a spiritual cause, that is, an imaginal cause and not a natural. A natural only seems. It is a delusion of our fading memory. We can’t remember when we set it in motion.

There are no accidents or purely natural causes; every event in the physical world (natural effect) originates from a spiritual or imaginal cause, which is often forgotten due to fading memory.

Here, “Every natural effect has a spiritual cause, and not a natural. A natural cause only seems. It is a delusion of the fading, vegetable memory.” [Blake, from “Milton”] ... So, every so-called act in the outer world that seems a cause in itself – may I tell you, “Every natural effect has a spiritual, imaginal cause, and not a natural. A natural cause only seems. It’s a delusion” – of what? “– the fading memory.” Man can’t quite remember.

Neville, quoting Blake, asserts that all events and circumstances in the physical world (natural effects) originate from spiritual, imaginal causes, not from other physical events. What appears as a 'natural cause' is merely a delusion, a result of humanity's 'fading memory' of their own imaginal acts that set the events in motion.

“Every natural effect has a spiritual cause, and not a natural. A natural cause only seems; it is a delusion of our” -- fading, I would say, “memory.” (Blake, from “Milton”) For here in this world I can’t quite remember when I imagined that which is now taking place in my world. I do not recall it. I can’t quite remember when I set it in notion.

All events and conditions in the physical world are the result of prior imaginal acts (spiritual causes). What appears to be a natural cause is merely a delusion stemming from a forgotten imaginal act.
