In a passage describing the full mystical sequence that follows his 'birth from above' of 20 July 1959, Neville recounts that 139 days later he encountered David, and then, 123 days after that, his spiritual body split from top to bottom and he, as the Son of man, ascended like a fiery serpent into his own skull -- the third stage of a sequence that would complete, 998 days further on, with the Holy Spirit descending upon him in the form of a dove after a full circle of 1,260 days.
