    Source God Is Lightdelivery claim d2 on lecture nid 1052: chrome dateline 'by Neville Goddard 10/9/67', certain, preferred=1; corroborated by catalog #371 (also 1967-10-09, certain)
    Why Confidence held at probable, not certain, because dating an ongoing habit to a single circa year carries interpretive slack beyond the certainty of the delivery date itself.
    Reasoning 'Night after night' describes an ongoing practice spoken of as current at the time of the lecture, so its year should track the telling rather than an unknown period before it. The existing circa-1958 claim only matches the lecture's older catalog entry, which the corpus has since downgraded to doubtful in favour of the certain 1967-10-09 chrome-dateline reading that the event's own field_told claim already uses; this claim brings field_date into line with that corrected delivery year.

1967-10-09 [exact/certain/final] God Is Light Night after night I go to bed and move beyond the world of dreams into the world of spirit waking, and from there I shoot my fiery arrows, knowing they never miss. Then someone will bring me a message, telling me she saw circles after circles after circles in the air and an arrow penetrate the smallest circle and swivel. She brought back an image, for that is exactly what happens. The arrow never misses its target. 528888
