A Course in Miracles truly Transformed me. I love and study many of the sacred scriptures, yet this one has given me the "Miracle" of inner peace that transcends words, space, and time. May we all be peaceful, joyful, and free in 2024. Happy New Year, Dear Friends ❤

Thank you for your explanation of sin. I’ve been feeling very lonely and isolated since my children have flown the nest. I’ve really wanted to reach out to a community and thought about joining a church but the Christian language has put me off because I don’t believe in the concept of sin and it angers me how it is used for control and fear. I’ve had the ACIM book for 10 years and have recently been seeing it in my eyesight every time I walk past the book case. Then today your channel popped up. I will definitely be starting to read it. Thank you 🙏❤

My favorite book for the last 20 years, and I am 70 now. I studied many, Blavatsky, Kabbalah, Baghavad Gita, our Bible, so much info...and when the Course chose me (I actally salvaged the book from my church, they were going to throw it away as Heresy) it slowly changed my world and mind. I did the structured 365 lessons, learned a lot, but the real magic started when I just randomly opened it and BAAANG, there was the answer to my doubt or question or anxiety ! I use it like that now, a book of divination, open on my desk 24/7, and we have becopme inseperable friends. Thank you, Holy Spirit !! The first thing the Course says is- NOTHING REAL CAN BE THREATENED NOTHING UNREAL EXISTS HEREIN LIES THE PEACE OF GOD Shalom

As a Hindu, I am into learning all capital T truth from all wisdom traditions, including acim. Access to all of this universal paths…What a gift from living in these times. On another note, the language-ing, the not including of women except in very limited ways, and being generally non inclusive , has always been a big red flag for me for my religion and even the more mystical sects of other religions. Even 12 step literature. I think it’s changing more now but…that’s also been an issue for me.

It is so encouraging to see our younger people getting into ACIM. There really isn't another teaching like it on the planet because of it's mind training aspect and focus on the true meaning and practice of forgiveness. And of the many spiritual teachings I have studied, none have talked about the ego the way the Course does. While the meaning of the Course is, in reality, simple...it's just not easy because it takes a lot of willingness to apply it consistently. If you are happy with your life and are seeking a spiritual teaching to help dress it up, then the Course is not something you would want to look at. But if you are finally seeing the insanity of this world and realizing there isn't any lasting happiness or peace, and at that point where you are saying, "There has got to be a better way!"...then the Course would be very helpful for you. If you find yourself in that situation, I would highly advise reading "The Disappearance of the Universe" by Gary Renard first. It's a phenomenal book that explains the message of the Course incredibly well. I hope this helps!

As we practice and let go of the ego, seeking ends. No more seeker. The ego seeks and never finds.

Thank you, Brenda! A Return To Love by Marianne Williamson introduced me to this book. I purchased it but haven't dived into it just yet. This is my sign that it's time to pick it up now... Sending you so much love and light all the way from Chicago ❤🙏🏻✨️ Happy New Year everyone! I know this will be our greatest year yet.

Very impressive that you have the inner wisdom to understand A Course in Miracles. I got the book 20 years ago, put it aside because I couldn't quite relate to it back then. But, 20 years later, it's finally making sense to me.

This book, just changed my life. I found I was unconsciously or unknowingly placing myself in situations which caused me pain; both physically and emotionally. I did this because I thought I had to atone for my sins or get right with God by showing, or proving, I suffer for Him or Her. I fully believed I was suffering for God. I was duped. God does NOT want me to suffer. He/She wants me to be HAPPY. My former view, goes directly to the meaning of the Crucifixion. If it is payment for sin, then my suffering was the correct method. However, if the Crucifixion was to show we are in a dream state and nothing can actually hurt me, it allows me to Forgive and Love. My suffering was never needed, wanted or desired by God. In fact it hurts the Christ Body.

If we talk about aspects of dual gender like Hinduism does with Shiva and Shakti, I believe He refers to the Unmanifest and She to the Manifest (Mother Nature if you will). Like on Genesis when God made Eve from a part of Adam. They are both One and the same. In the Course the Son would be Shakti, the whole Universe. The Father, the Unmanifest, the Godhead. And the Spirit the Union between them both, like explained in the Holy Trinity.

I hated the word God and at first had to rethink and undo this misunderstanding I had about it as you were saying. I am a gay man and there is a lot of stigma in the word God within the community. I left my last bf because he didn’t understand and was trying to pull me out of the spiritual path. I had to make a choice. Is not about sexuality nor gender. God is All. The word HE is generic. Like mankind. It has nothing to do with gender.

i like the idea that spiritual work is both learning the good traits and unlearning the bad habits. A Course in Miracles is really good for that.

Thank you. I really enjoyed this video. I've had the Course from 2018. Tried to finish it, stared over probably more than 10 times... Loved it, hated it. I threw it in the trash a couple of years ago because I thought it just a load of c*ap. Now I regret that I've done it and I'm thinking about getting myself another copy. I can't count how many times I got frustrated with it and how many I just fell in love with it... That said, I was wondering if you have - or are planning on doing - a series on ACIM. I believe you can learn so much more by sharing the ideas of the Course. And I love the way in which you explained those paragraphs. Sorry for the long comment. Thank you again for this beautiful, meaningful video.💖

There is a zoom class out of the Agape Church in L.A. that meets on Tuesday nights @ 6:00 PST. I also co-moderate some Clubhouse rooms for ACIM. The Clubhouse rooms are under A Course in Miracles house. Let me know if you want the link to the zoom class.

Yes the Christian language totally off put me. Each time i get back to it, i love it and really change my inner understanding or at least find a validation to what is weak in me, father and he he he came up, all the KZfaq comment section of repetitive language of trying to recruit you just no. I understand words like sin and atonement and all that. They are helpful vocabulary. And ego or not i don't care or like using the word ego, i just get questions and i need an answer, why no she why this constant he he, as if she doesn't exist. Like it's written by a male narcissist. Here you might say ego, past reference, personal projection, i don't care. I have the right to raise questions and not be ok with this language. I so wish theylre was an alternative version. I started reading she instead of he each time and say idk fairy or something else each time it's father, or son, it's hilarious i have to do that. I still get back to it once in a while. Can you tell about the Christian language. Why is it? I know a little background on the research but still don't get it. So much explanation to the depths, no explanation to father and son.

And i am also ok with the usage of God. All this father son and he part symbolises centuries of oppression and patriarchal punishment and order that I just can not pass by. If I had an explanation I can pass the trigger. And this has nothing to do with ego, if it is then I don't care because it is valid. Ego also has the right to talk.

Everything else I couldn't agree more. It gives me a lot. It's like a remembrance. It's humbling. It's extremely valuable when something humbles and centers you without a trauma : D
