The Complete Conversations with God

by Neale Donald Walsch

Words may help you understand something. Experience allows you to know.

All great discoveries have been made from a willingness, and ability, to not be right.

You will not have that for which you ask, nor can you have anything you want. This is because your very request is a statement of lack,

The correct prayer is therefore never a prayer of supplication, but a prayer of gratitude.

All human actions are motivated at their deepest level by one of two emotions—fear or love.

all action becomes a reaction—defense against loss—

scarcity complex

The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek, therefore, not to find out Who You Are, seek to determine Who You Want to Be.

Life (as you call it) is an opportunity for you to know experientially what you already know conceptually.

The way to reduce the pain which you associate with earthly experiences and events—both yours and those of others—is to change the way you behold them.

You cannot change the outer event

so you must change the inner experience.

that which you condemn will condemn you, and that which you judge, you will one day become.

If I do not go within I go without

It is in not struggling that the process proceeds. It is in surrendering that the victory is won.

Thought is pure energy.

Actions are words moving. Words are thoughts expressed. Thoughts are ideas formed. Ideas are energies come together. Energies are forces released. Forces are elements existent. Elements are particles of God, portions of All, the stuff of everything.

no condition is “good” or “bad.” It just is.

All your life you think you are your body. Some of the time you think you are your mind. It is at the time of your death that you find out Who You Really Are.

It already has the knowledge, but knowledge is conceptual. Feeling is experiential.

tools of creation are: thought, word, and deed.

You cannot resist something to which you grant no reality. The act of resisting a thing is the act of granting it life.

We make real that to which we pay attention.

You are what you think you are.

Doing is a function of the body. Being is a function of the soul.

not from an attempt to produce results, but from an awareness that results have already been produced.

Worry is pointless. It is wasted mental energy. It also creates bio-chemical reactions which harm the body, producing everything from indigestion to coronary arrest,

Do you see how you have created your ideas of “right” and “wrong” simply to define Who You Are? Do you see that without these definitions—boundaries—you are nothing? And do you see that, like Me, you keep changing the boundaries as you change your Ideas of Who You Are?

Consciousness creates experience.

Your thoughts are pure vibration—and they can and do create physical matter!

What you memorize, you memorialize.

disagreement is merely a sign—and a healthy one—of individuality.

every thought I am sending you, you are receiving through the filter of your own experience, of your own truth, of your own understandings,

For fear only paralyzes, while consciousness mobilizes.

The very act of your giving something away causes you to experience that you have it to give away.

your perspective creates your thoughts, and your thoughts create everything—and

way to control your thoughts is to change your perspective.

Assume a different perspective and you will have a different thought about everything.

Lw of attraction

thoughts about a thing, and the experience those thoughts create. You will understand yourself to be creating your own reality.

When you look deeply at something, you see right through

What you look at disappears.

Fear is False Evidence Appearing Real.

worry about what you are going to “give out.” Life is about creating the highest quality giving, not the highest quality getting.

experience of everything is based on your perceptions, and your perception is based on your understanding. And your understanding is based on your myths.

human consciousness of insufficiency—of “not enough-ness”—is the root cause of all worry, all pressure, all competition, all jealousy, all anger, all conflict, and, ultimately, all killing on your planet.

If your objective is to live a life of good health and great longevity, consuming dead flesh, smoking known carcinogens, and drinking volumes of nerve-deadening, brain-frying liquids does not work.

Only what you hold can disappear.
