A Course in Miracles by The Foundation for Inner Peace
A Course in Miracles is a set of self-study components published by the Foundation for Inner Peace. a course in miracles is metaphysical, and explains forgiveness as applied to day-to-day life. Curiously, nowhere does the book have an author (and it is so listed without having an author's name by the U.S. Library of Congress). Even so, the text was written by Helen Schucman (deceased) and William Thetford Schucman has connected that the book's material is based on communications to her from an "inner voice" she claimed was Jesus. The original version of the book was published in 1976, with a revised edition published in 1996. Part of the content is a teaching manual, and a student workbook. Since the initial edition, the book has sold many million copies, with translations into almost two-dozen languages.

The book's origins can be traced back to the early 1970s Helen Schucman initial experiences with the "inner voice" led to her then supervisor, William Thetford, to contact Hugh Cayce at the Association for Investigation and Enlightenment. In turn, an introduction to Kenneth Wapnick (later the book's editor) occurred. At the time of the introduction, Wapnick was clinical psychologist. Soon after meeting, Schucman and Wapnik spent over a year editing and revising the material. An additional introduction, this time of Schucman, Wapnik, and Thetford to Robert Skutch and Judith Skutch Whitson, of the Foundation for Inner Peace. The 1st printings of the book for distribution have been in 1975. Since then, copyright litigation by the Foundation for Inner Peace, and Penguin Books, has established that the content of the initial edition is in the public domain.

A Course in Miracles is a teaching device the course has three books, a 622-web page text, a 478-page student workbook, and an 88-page teachers manual. The components can be studied in the order selected by readers. The content of A Course in Miracles addresses both the theoretical and the sensible, though application of the book's material is emphasized. The text is largely theoretical, and is a basis for the workbook's lessons, which are practical applications. The workbook has 365 lessons, one for each day of the year, even though they don't have to be done at a pace of one lesson per day. Maybe most like the workbooks that are familiar to the average reader from earlier expertise, you are asked to use the material as directed. Even so, in a departure from the "normal", the reader is not needed to think what is in the workbook, or even accept it. Neither the workbook nor the Course in Miracles is intended to complete the reader's learning merely, the materials are a begin.

A Course in Miracles distinguishes between information and perception truth is unalterable and eternal, even though perception is the world of time, change, and interpretation. The world of perception reinforces the dominant ideas in our minds, and keeps us separate from the truth, and separate from God. Perception is limited by the body's limitations in the physical world, hence limiting awareness. Much of the experience of the globe reinforces the ego, and the individual's separation from God. But, by accepting the vision of Christ, and the voice of the Holy Spirit, 1 learns forgiveness, each for oneself and other folks.
