A Course In Miracles
A Course in Miracles is so pure, so wonderful, so powerful, and so much more spiritually advanced than any other piece of the world's literature (previous and present), that you have to truly experience it to think it. But those whose minds are also attached to worldly thoughts, and lack the underlying thirst for accurate spiritual knowledge that is needed for its understanding, will likely not comprehend a single entire web page. That is not because A Course in Miracles is confusing - on the contrary its principles are remarkably simple - but rather because it is the nature of spiritual expertise that these who are not ready to comprehend it, merely can not recognize it. As stated in the Bible, at the beginning of the book of John: "The light shineth in darkness, and darkness comprehended it not".

Ever given that I very first became aware of the majestic and awe-inspiring presence of God, I have enjoyed reading a lot of superb spiritual works like the Bible (my favorite parts are the Sermon on the Mount and Psalms), the Bhagavad-Gita, the Upanishads, the Koran and the poetry of Kabir and Rumi. None of them come close to the greatness of a Course in Miracles. Reading it with an open mind and heart, your fears and troubles wash away. You turn into conscious of a marvelous enjoy deep inside you - deeper than anything you knew prior to. acim starts to look so vibrant for you and your loved ones. You feel adore for every person such as those you previously have tried to leave excluded. These experiences are very effective and at occasions throw you off balance a little, but it is worth it: A Course in Miracles introduces you to a love so peaceful, so strong and so universal - you will wonder how so several of the world's religions, whose aim is supposedly a comparable expertise, got so off track.

I would like to say right here to any Christian who feels that his church's teachings do not genuinely satisfy his thirst to know a kind, merciful and loving God, but is somewhat afraid to read the Course due to the fact of others' claims that it is inconsistent with "correct" Christianity: Don't worry! I have study the gospels several occasions and I assure you that a Course in Miracles is entirely consistent with Jesus' teachings even though he was on earth. Never worry the fanatical defenders of exclusionist dogma - these poor men and women consider themselves to be the only carriers of Jesus' message, and the only ones worthy of his blessings, although all other will go to hell. A Course in Miracles reflects Jesus' true message: unconditional really like for *all folks*. Even though he was on earth, Jesus stated to judge a tree by its fruit. So give it a attempt and see how the fruits that ripen in your life taste. If they taste bad, you can abandon A Course in Miracles. But if they taste as sweet as mine do, and the millions of other correct seekers who have found A Course in Miracles to be practically nothing significantly less than a heavenly treasure, then congratulations - and could your heart usually be abundantly filled with peaceful, loving joy.
