Photo: As I said, it is the back cover of a book. Even if I had the book – which I don't -, I doubt it would have had a signature. I mentioned the publisher above. The picture must be 70 years old; the guy it represents died in 1972., Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons

Who is Neville Goddard?

Neville Goddard (1905 to 1972) was a Barbadian writer, speaker and mystic, and a figure of the New Thought movement. He grew up in Barbados before moving to the United States as a young adult, and it was there that he made his name, teaching self-help methods built on meditation, self-hypnosis and manifestation.

He was prolific across page and platform alike, producing fourteen books and delivering more than three hundred lectures. That balance tells you something about the man: this was a teacher who worked through the spoken word at least as much as the written one, returning again and again to the workings of mind, belief and inner practice.

Neville Goddard in audiobooks

Goddard belongs in audio more naturally than almost any writer of his kind. A man who gave over three hundred lectures was, in effect, working in this medium all along, and hearing his ideas aloud restores something of their original setting. Prayer, the title in our catalogue, is a compact way in, sitting squarely within the meditation, self-hypnosis and manifestation that ran through his teaching.

UK listeners curious about the mystic strand of self-help will find it focused listening that rewards revisiting – and for practical teaching of this sort, the revisiting is half the value.
