estimated · probable · preferred
Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 009)
Reasoning
Passage 546833: 'He brought forth his child in me ... by the birth of the child in me.' The birth of the child is the event of 20 July 1959 (8497 'the divine child comes forth in Neville's 1959 experience', 1274).
before 1965
bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [546833] belong to telling lecture nids [1852]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1965 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1965 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 12 February 1965
bound · probable
Why
Existing before-1965/possible bound (phase4 L6a envelope) left in place; this is a sharper addition.
Reasoning
The 'birth of the child in me' testimony describes a completed personal experience with no stated date of its own, so it can only be bounded by the telling. The lecture's delivery is established at 1965-02-12 (probable, sharper than the year-only value the existing before-1965/possible bound used), so the bound sharpens to before-1965-02-12 at the same probable ceiling.

Everyone can grow into their vision if they will only actually believe the story. God told me a story in the beginning of time, and that story was he would so become me that I would become God. But he didn’t impose it upon me that I had to believe it, he swore it unto himself. I didn’t have to believe it—that’s unconditioned. But while I am passing through the horrors of the world, I must imitate God as a dear child and impose upon myself the same kind of a story, and believe it. Not take anyone into my confidence, simply take myself and believe it. So I must imagine that I am the man that I… |
