Woman gives Neville her written mystical account

A woman in the audience gave Neville a written account of an inner mystical experience: she woke with the words "Now I understand," realized they had not been spoken by her own voice but by her friend Jan's, then heard a further voice say "I am in you and you in me," which brought her to a felt understanding of the oneness of being. Neville read her account aloud in the lecture "Suffering Is Like That of David" (1968-04-08), using it to illustrate that the same fatherhood (the imaginal "David" in everyone) unites people who otherwise look nothing alike.
