lecture nid 1242 'Eternity Within' delivery date 1966-10-04, agreed by catalog #321 and an independent chrome banner ('Neville Goddard 10-4-1966'); a second, uncorroborated catalog claim (1967-01-17, catalog #331) is a separate delivery this dateline does not speak to and is not preferred over the corroborated pair.
Two months before this lecture, in August 1966, Neville had been so gravely ill that, as he puts it, no insurance company would have given him a week to live. He recovered and describes himself, at 61, feeling as strong as he had twenty-five years earlier, framing his return as necessary so that he could still tell others of the revelation he had received -- that the risen Christ awakens within every person, making each hearer, in truth, the Father of the biblical David.
