Years after reading Neville's book instruction to lie flat with head level (no pillow) to release the sense of personhood, Barry asked him about it and Neville laughed it off: 'Well, I never do it that way anymore.'

Years after reading Neville's book instruction to lie flat with head level (no pillow) to release the sense of personhood, Barry asked him about it and Neville laughed it off: 'Well, I never do it that way anymore.' [Date evidence: 'probably five or six years' after Barry first read the books (c. 1958) — early-to-mid 1960s]

    Source Freedom Barry Neville GoddardBarry first-hand source says he raised the book instruction with Neville probably five or six years after first reading it circa 1958.
    Reasoning Applying Barry's approximate five-to-six-year offset to the independently sequenced 1958 reading yields 1963-1964; the approximation does not support a point date.
Verbatim (witness's words)

You remember how Neville used to say in his books about lie flat down with your head on a level with your body, not on a pillow. [...] I spoke to him about that later, probably five or six years later. He says, “Well, I never do it that way anymore.” (Laughter)

Neville (as quoted): "Well, I never do it that way anymore."
