Neville describes waking on Sunday morning after a night spent, in vision, teaching different ethnic groups: he addressed Black congregants as a Black man, Asian listeners as an Asian man, and white listeners as a white man, taking on whatever pigment his audience needed while insisting his true nature was Spirit, without race. He offers this as proof that the physical body and its appearance are only a temporary "mask," worn to be seen, over the one imperishable being underneath every human form.
