Neville Goddard Lecture - Awake, O Sleeper . . 01-08-1968 The Bible is addressed to the Imagination . . which is spiritual sensation . . and only immediately to the understanding, or reason. In the fifth chapter of the Book of Ephesians we are told to: “Awake O sleeper and rise from the dead.” Now, reason could never comprehend these words, but the Bible is calling upon Imagination to awaken, telling Him that he is sleeping, dreaming his world into being. But Imagination, now a rational being, does not know this and therefore cannot believe it.
