A Course In Miracles” received by Dr. Helen Shucman from Jesus is a masterful examination and exposé of the ego, the false personality, and how it undermines all efforts to know one’s true self and be free. The role of forgiveness Is an antidote to the negative patterns of the ego and a prevalent theme throughout the Course.
ACIM is a practical guide to freeing the mind of the egos destructive influence enabling you to ‘hear the voice’ of your true self. It aims at shifting duality-based perspectives back to Unity consciousness, from the illusion of separation back to the reality of Oneness, so that we can live in this dualistic world but not be ‘of it’ and thereby contribute to its healing and upliftment.
The shifts away from ego-based thinking to an experience of our true self are the ‘miracles’ that the course aims to facilitate. The great work before us, then, is to transmute the lie of separation, the illusion of the ‘dream,’ back into the truth of Oneness our real home, from which we have never left.
From “A Course In Miracles”:
“This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the time you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you can elect what you want to take at a given time. The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love’s presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all encompassing can have no opposite.”
“This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.”
If you are a current student of “A Course In Miracles” or simply interested in self discovery these talks can serve as a review or an introduction respectively. Each posting will focus on one aspect of the course. These talks are not a substitute for doing the 365 workbook exercises that will give deeper meaning to the courses information and engage its transformational potential.
The purpose is to learn to differentiate between the false personality or egoic thinking mind and the real you or Divine mind; to silence the ego’s distracting messages and ‘hear the voice’ of your true self. By embracing the Divine mind rather than identifying with the ego, we come into harmony and are healed on all levels, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically.
I am an energy healer and have created a process called Quantum Body Balance© for distance energy healing should you be interested in pursuing that as an additional support. I work with Jesus or Yeshua to accomplish this work. The high frequency energy of Divine love is transmitted from Yeshua through me to the recipient. Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual issues can be addressed and it is particularly suited to assisting you in connecting with your life purpose, if that is your desire.
