acim in Miracles is so pure, so great, so strong, and so much a lot more spiritually advanced than any other piece of the world’s literature (past and present), that you have to truly expertise it to think it. But these whose minds are also attached to worldly thoughts, and lack the underlying thirst for accurate spiritual information that is essential for its understanding, will probably not comprehend a single entire page. That is not since A Course in Miracles is confusing – on the contrary its principles are remarkably basic – but rather due to the fact it is the nature of spiritual knowledge that these who are not ready to understand it, basically can’t comprehend 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 since I very first became aware of the majestic and awe-inspiring presence of God, I have enjoyed reading a lot of wonderful spiritual performs like the Bible (my favourite 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 grow to be conscious of a marvelous adore deep inside you – deeper than something you knew prior to. The future begins to appear so bright for you and your loved ones. You feel love for everyone such as those you previously have tried to leave excluded. These experiences are quite potent and at times throw you off balance a small, but it is worth it: A Course in Miracles introduces you to a love so peaceful, so sturdy and so universal – you will wonder how so a lot of of the world’s religions, whose aim is supposedly a similar knowledge, got so off track.
I would like to say here to any Christian who feels that his church’s teachings do not genuinely satisfy his thirst to know a type, merciful and loving God, but is somewhat afraid to study the Course since of others’ claims that it is inconsistent with “accurate” Christianity: Never be concerned! I have study the gospels numerous times and I assure you that a Course in Miracles is entirely constant with Jesus’ teachings although he was on earth. Don’t fear the fanatical defenders of exclusionist dogma – these poor individuals think 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 adore for *all individuals*. While he was on earth, Jesus stated to judge a tree by its fruit. So give it a try and see how the fruits that ripen in your life taste. If they taste poor, 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 located A Course in Miracles to be absolutely nothing less than a heavenly treasure, then congratulations – and may possibly your heart always be abundantly filled with peaceful, loving joy.
