A Course in Miracles

Summary: Turn Around and Look Another Way...
Review: This has not been the alpha and omega of truth for me. It was the alpha however. The beginning of a never-ending change. This book summoned a life transformation. I am in many respects not the same person I used to be. I live and think very different. I have stepped out of formal society altogether. Many changes brought about from this association have been unpleasant and unacceptable to those close to me. These changes have been very difficult for myself as well. Yet, the heart and soul know their purpose, and for once in my life I am following it. Most of us spend our lives pleasing others, and we are oblivious to it. This book will bring about real change if you are true to yourself. Hold on to your shorts folks, you're in for the ride of your life...

Summary: The truth, enlightenment, unconditional love in a book.
Review: When I first discovered 'A Course in Miracles' I knew within the first 10 minutes of seeing the introductry video, that this was what I'd been waiting for. This was my spiritual path. The person with whom I watched the video said I floated up the road after seeing it. As I read the book (almost non-stop)I realised it was a direct link from reality to the world. It's meaning was as plain as day (if almost impossible to adhere to) and to me it was wholly unambiguous. Once you accept the precept that it is an enlightened work, all the concepts that seem totally outrageous become like long division to a 5 year old. This book has enabled me to let go of all the past hurts I'd collected scince childhood and thereby presented me with a clearer perception. The writing itself is beautiful and no holds barred. To me, this is by far the most important book (if not essential reading), of the century.

Summary: False teaching! Beware!
Review: This book should be more aptly titled, "A Course in Deception" because that is what it is. To base a book on information obtained through spiritual channeling is dangerous. How can the author claim the voice who dictated the book is the voice of Jesus when the information contradicts God's true word. Do your homework and ask God to reveal the real truth found in His Word, the Bible. Don't let the answers you want to hear be mistaken for the truth

Summary: A Course In Miracles is to be EXPERIENCED !!
Review: A Course in Miracles is so rich in content that it needs to be read and thought about one paragraph at a time. The wonderful aspect of it is that each truth it opens and shares is later opened wider for you and again still wider. It is not unlike the bud of a rose slowing opening and showering you with it's beauty. The wording of it's message leaves little doubt about its origin. Approached with due respect for love it is an incredible, wonderful experience.

Summary: The Third Testament
Review: This book has probably had more effect on my life and thinking than any other. It occupied much of my life for a full two years, and still, many years later, I read in it with a smile, like I listen to the works of Bach... somehow remarkable and hopeful that it happened at all. It is one of the truly great works of civilization -- not just a New Age fad.

It is not a work to be accepted on faith, but of inner science -- I have little patience for things that want me to accept premises just because somebody said so. Everything in this book led me from conclusion to conclusion in a manner I could verify from my own internal processes... And the book did most certainly lead me through a process of increased awareness relative to the foundation of my being.

For example, I always instinctively felt mind to be prior to matter, but I was always confused about the dichotomy as well. I now feel solidified in my understanding. The material realm is truly a thought... it cannot be otherwise. Love is literally the foundation of all things. There is no attainment other than forgiveness (rightly understood), through which all things are accomplished.

And then when the Interent happened, I learned about all these power struggles, organizations and discussion groups relative to the book. I feel thoroughly disconnected from most of them... at the very least, the effort to restrain the populace to the one true interpretation of the work seems to my obviously counter to the work's nature. The way I read it, the very gesture of trying to impose a forcible limitation on someone's natural process in order to produce the desired Result runs counter to the achievement of this Result -- the achievement of it is guaranteed to be frustrated.

Oh well. I suppose it's inevitable... but don't let the nonsense fool you. This one is for real. This one is Great.

Summary: Renewal.
Review: When I first heard about ACIM I was concerned at how the book would mesh with my traditional religious beliefs. Reluctantly, I purchased, and read (slowly, a few pages a day)ACIM. I am amazed at how profound this book is. How unjudgemental. Our world really does need to slow down in this Internet connected age. I also recommend "Life and Death on the Internet" by Keith A. Schroeder. This book will also help you cope with our rapidly changing world.

Summary: He never left! He is inside our hearts all the time!
Review: It's a Miracle! I've had the books in the shelf for 14 years and could'nt understand a world. Than during a liberating-breath session I brooke through and met myself...that is to say Him! And since a couple of years I now repeat every time i feel tempted: Get thee behind me, ego...! Allthough we think it's mission imbossible,to pass through our egos,that is exactly what we are here on earth to do. That's our only chance to escape hell and reunite with God,our Creator. But don't you worry, He is there all the time to help you. Just call for Him...He is inside you!

Summary: Depending on where you're at, this might be your way...
Review: I picked this book up five years ago during the dissolution of my 1st marriage. I read 5 pages, did 4 lessons, and tossed it aside. It meant nothing to me. Five months ago, I picked it up again, only to find my heart awakened by it's simple and profound truths. This isn't THE Couse in Miracles, but it is A Course in Miracles.

Summary: It is the framework of truth that I refer to.
Review: It is the framework of truth that I refer to. I can now easily know what is real(& embrace it), and what is an illusion(which I give to the holy spirit & God for correction).I am now in constant communication directly with GOD.

there are some people who have studied ACIM, but have not been able to hear GOD's voice. This may be because of the other voice inside their head(the internal critic/ego/judge)is louder and holds a false belief system opposite GOD's Divine Truth. Some confuse this other voice for intuition or GOD's voice, but it's not. They however cannot distinguish between them, they get mixed messages, and it all seems very confusing.

If this happens, I recommend the following: 1)Ro-Hun Therapy which clears the other voice enough to hear GOD's TRUTH instead. It's an integrated, systematic,rapidly acting,energy based psychotherapy

and

2) a daily meditation to stay centered & clear of the other voice and acts as a ladder to reach GOD's VOICE of TRUTH. I have been divinely inspired to create a booklet with such a meditation. I have found it very powerful in my ACIM process,and so have many others.

Your welcome to write to me ([e-mail]) for more information on the above. In Divine Friendship, Your sister Debbie :-)
