Neville teaches "Five Lessons" master class

In his 1948 Master Class Five Lessons, Neville gave students specific biological indicators of spiritual awakening: a blue light on the forehead, a shrill whistle in the ears, and autonomic nervous system shifts.

Adjudication: Row 1 anchors to the specifically named and published 1948 'Five Lessons' Master Class, a near-primary reference. Row 0 relies on a retrospective 1971 remark ('Master Class... $40 for my five talks') that plausibly refers to the same 1948 class misremembered, but could also describe an earlier, separate 1945 Los Angeles class predating 'Five Lessons' -- the evidence doesn't cleanly resolve which, so a human should confirm whether these are one class misdated or two distinct classes.

    Why Does not bear on whether the 1971 '$40 for my five talks' remark is this same 1948 course or a separate 1945 one; that remains open per the existing adjudication.
    Reasoning Neville says this lecture is the fifth night of a five-night course, and the past four nights are the four prior lessons of the same 'Five Lessons' master class this event records. The owning lecture's certain delivery claim (1948-03-01) fixes the fifth night; read as four consecutive preceding calendar nights that places the first night at 1948-02-26 (1948 is a leap year, so Feb has 29 days). This narrows the existing year-only 1948 field_date to a specific week. Capped at possible because the 1948-03-01 anchor is itself catalogue-sourced (note reads 'Neville lectures catalog #5', copied from linked historical event 5) rather than independently re-derived in this packet, and because 'past four days'/'nights' is read literally as consecutive calendar nights rather than confirmed as such.
