Scripture urges us to revise, to forgive, and change our thoughts, thereby changing the conditions of our life. This is how it is done.
Neville teaches revision as a technique to change the conditions of one's life by mentally altering past events or conversations to align with a desired outcome. By revising the past in imagination, one changes the present and future.
Christ Is Your Life
Since his son has always been tops in math, he was annoyed and instantly revised the report card. Suddenly angry with himself he said: “I am tired of the responsibility of this power and life’s many needs of revision. My son is a big boy now, let him do it for himself,” and awoke.
Revision is the act of mentally changing an undesirable past event or perceived reality to a more favorable one. Neville's friend's dream illustrates the immediate, almost automatic, application of this power, even if the friend later felt weary of the responsibility.
Faith
You can revise the past. If I can make something, I can unmake it. Whatever I can create, I can uncreate. Whatever I can make, I can unmake. He said: “You can’t do it. For we use entropy in our laboratory every day, and entropy means the past is unalterable; you can’t change it. If the past could be changed, I wouldn’t know what I am doing in the lab…” I said: “I don’t care what you say. I know what I’ve done. And you can undo the past. You can change it.”
The past is not fixed and unalterable; it can be revised through the power of imagination. Just as one can create, one can uncreate or change past events by imaginatively altering them in the present moment.
The Art Of Dying
There is only complete forgiveness of sin – no judgment and no argument, but man can change facts. The past can be unmade. So a man has done this or that. Use your strange Imagination and “turn the great wheel backward until Troy un-burns.” It means to revise.
Revision is the technique of using one's imagination to 'unmake' or change past events. By mentally re-enacting a past scene differently, one can alter its impact on the present and future, demonstrating that the past is not fixed but malleable through imaginative power.
Three Propositions
Here is a lady this past week; she has heard the story of revision; her husband calls her and it's a big deal, it runs into a fortune, he had sent off 600 feet of film to Acme and they've returned the film, only the first 300 were good. The second three were duds, as they call it, not a thing was on it, a complete blank. ... She sat down when her husband called her, desperately called her: she sat on the bed just where she had received the call, put the receiver up, and sat in the silence until she heard within herself that phone ringing and across that wire the same voice, but now not an anxious voice but a tender loving voice, which was her husband, explaining that the whole thing had been resolved, they had found what seemingly they had lost forever. She sat in the silence for one hour and ten minutes, and there she listened and she listened until her whole body became still in hearing only what she wanted to hear. And an hour and ten minutes later while still in the silence the phone rang; it's her husband calling to say that Acme just called him to explain and excuse themselves, it was their mistake, they had found the missing 300 feet of film. And there was not a dud, it wasn't a blank, the whole thing was perfect.
Revision is the act of mentally rewriting past events or undesirable news to conform to an ideal outcome. By imaginatively experiencing the desired resolution, one changes the inner state, which then manifests as a corresponding change in the outer world, effectively altering the past's impact.
The Law And The Promise
Man must go back in memory, seek for and destroy the causes of evil, however far back they lie. 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. Changing your life means changing the past. The causes of any present evil are the unrevised scenes of the past. The past and the present form the whole structure of man; they are carrying all of its contents with it. Any alteration of content will result in an alteration in the present and future.
Revision is a manifesting technique where one mentally re-enters a past undesirable event and replays it in imagination as it should have happened. This act 'destroys the causes of evil' by altering the past's content, which in turn changes the present and future, as man's past and present are a continuous structure.
