Prayer - Neville Goddard

PRAYER: THE ART OF BELIEVING

by Neville Goddard

Chapter 1

LAW OF REVERSIBILITY

"Pray for my soul, more things are wrought by prayer than this world

dreams of" (Tennyson).

PRAYER is an art and requires practice. The first requirement is a

controlled imagination. Parade and vain repetitions are foreign to

prayer. Its exercise requires tranquility and peace of mind, "Use not

vain repetitions, for prayer is done in secret and thy Father which

seeth in secret shall reward thee openly." The ceremonies that are

customarily used in prayer are mere superstitions and have been

invented to give prayer an air of solemnity. Those who do practice

the art of prayer are often ignorant of the laws that control it. They

attribute the results obtained to the ceremonies and mistake the

letter for the spirit. The essence of prayer is faith; but faith must be

permeated with understanding to be given that active quality which it

does not possess when standing alone. "Therefore, get wisdom; and

with all thy getting get understanding."

This book is an attempt to reduce the unknown to the known, by

pointing out conditions on which prayers are answered, and without

which they cannot be answered. It defines the conditions governing

prayer in laws that are simply a generalization of our observations

The universal law of reversibility is the foundation on which its

claims are based.

Mechanical motion caused by speech was known for a long time

before anyone dreamed of the possibility of an inverse trans-

formation, that is, the reproduction of speech by mechanical motion

(the phonograph). For a long time electricity was produced by friction

without ever a thought that friction, in turn, could be produced by

electricity. Whether or not man succeeds in reversing the

transformation of a force, he knows, nevertheless, that all

transformations of force are reversible. If heat can produce

mechanical motion, so mechanical motion can produce heat. If

electricity produces magnetism, magnetism too can develop electric

currents. If the voice can cause undulatory currents, so can such

currents reproduce the voice, and so on. Cause and effect, energy

and matter, action and
