A Course in Miracles - Hardcover Original Edition
Product Details
Weight: 3.43 lbs
The great classic work, A Course in Miracles, is devoted to teachings about who we are, our relationships to God and with each other, and the actually mental nature of our bodies and the world.
There are three constituent parts to the Course: The Text, a Workbook for Students, and the Manual for Teachers:
- The Text lays out the theoretical foundation for the metaphysical system of the Course.
- The Workbook contains a series of 365 Lessons to be practiced daily for the purpose of retraining the mind and healing our perception.
- Finally, the Manual contains information for and about advanced teachers of God.
The Course is also about miracles, which students understand to be, in part, a shift in perception to healed vision. But miracles are more than a shift in perception, because the shift has consequences in the world as we see it. The Course is a self study educational program for retraining the mind that is spiritual, rather than religious, in its perspective. Although The Course uses Christian terminology, it expresses a universal experience, and its underlying ontology is reminiscent of ancient refrains, echoing the world's most hallowed traditions.
Review:
I, Rev. Tony Ponticello, teach A Course In Miracles classes through the Community Miracles Center. I use the Original Edition in all the classes that I teach. I lecture frequently about ACIM. I always quote from the Original Edition when I lecture. I write about ACIM. I always quote from the Original Edition when I write about ACIM. This means that I think that the Original Edition currently is the best ACIM edition readily available to ACIM students. This should be obvious. (Isn t it obvious?) Do I think the Original Edition is perfect? No. I think it s the best practical alternative we currently have. Taking even this position has been a risk. Many, many more people still use the Foundation for Inner Peace edition. I would have a greater possible student base if I used the FIP edition, no question. I know teachers who still use the FIP version even though they believe the Original Edition to be better for just this reason of having a larger base of perspective students. However, I don t use the FIP edition. That edition is not acceptable to me anymore. There is, in my opinion, a better, readily available book. That book is the Original Edition. --From Miracles Monthly, Vol. 25 No. 4, June 2011
Author:
The story of the Course began when Columbia University research psychologist Dr. William T. Thetford decided he had had enough of the the intensely competitive and negative climate he was experiencing and declared to his colleague, Dr. Helen Shucman, "There must be another way, and I am determined to find it. She agreed to help. What ensued was a dramatic progression of waking dreams for Shucman, which culminated in October of 1965 with her experience of a voice which spoke clearly in her mind, saying, "This is a course in miracles. Please take notes."
