Seedtime and Harvest
* Available in THE NEVILLE READER ISBN# 9780875168111 *
2010 Reprint of 1956 edition. Seedtime and Harvest focuses on key mystical messages that run through Biblical Scripture, showing how familiar Biblical stories and passages provide insight into the metaphysical principles that form the foundation of physical experience. The tale of Cain and Abel, Jacob's ladder dream, and many other passages are explored to spark deeper understanding of consciousness and empowerment. Neville intersperses his interpretive insights into scripture with real-life examples of the workings of spiritual law, helping to show how the Bible can provide important guidance to students no longer comfortable with a literal reading. Neville's opening chapter notes that any who enjoy the old familiar verses of Scripture are discouraged when they themselves try to read the Bible as they would any other book because, quite excusably, they do not understand that the Bible is written in the language of symbolism. In Seedtime and Harvest, Neville offers insight to those who seek to reconcile their love of the Christian Bible with non-sectarian truths about being and self-hood.

"Events appear on the screen of space to express the different levels of consciousness in man. A change in the level of his consciousness automatically results in a change of the phenomena of his life. To attempt to change conditions before he changes the level of consciousness from whence they came, is to struggle in vain. Man redeems the world as he ascends the vertical scale of meaning. "

Wow, another amazing book.
This deeply informs one on consciousness, changing the demand to have a change in supply, lacking the need to harshly judge or condemn others, and finding the deeper meaning of life than what it is known to be. It also teaches how one can break down, clearly, the experiences and parables in the Bible. Compelling work.

1/9/24: still love reading people's success stories and being reminded of how to create the life I want once I realize I'm constantly manifesting the one I'm already living. I just need to decide what I want, keep focusing on that and be patient while it's unfolding and take steps to get to it as I feel intuitively. It's possible for anyone who believes it and is willing to make the change. Not a fan of the Bible quotes and some of the language feels bumpy to read, but the core message is the same.
I really enjoyed this one. It felt easier to read and understand than some of his other books and I always love reading the successes people have had in applying what he teaches and using other quotes to back up what he says.
I look forward to coming back to this many more times in future and seeing what else I can learn from it.

If you have been alienated and dumbfounded by the literal interpretation of the Bible and the associated evangelical groups, this maybe a way back via hermeneutics. My understanding is that Joseph Campbell studied Neville and you will find a psychological interpretation to the Bible more compatible with modern day thinking.
