    Best quote from Ancient Roots of Modern Manifestation

    “

    The universe is mental, and your imagination isn't separate from the creative force of the cosmos; once you assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled, the external world must rearrange itself to match that internal state.

    Input question

    I want to know about the book the Kyballion as well as other key esoteric sources that relate to manifestation and reality creation. i’d like to know how this overlaps with manifestation and with Neville Goddard teachings, and talk about where Neville learned his manifestation knowledge from , as far as I know he learned a lot from an african teacher name beginning with A?
