A Course in Miracles is so pure, so amazing, so effective, and so much more spiritually advanced than any other piece in the world's literature (past and present), that you need to in fact knowledge it to believe it. But those whose minds are also attached to worldly thoughts, and lack the underlying thirst for accurate spiritual know-how that is certainly essential for its understanding, will likely not comprehend a single entire page. That is definitely not because A Course in Miracles is confusing - around the contrary its principles are remarkably simple - but rather because it is definitely the nature of spiritual know-how that these who are not ready to understand it, simply can not understand it. As stated within the Bible, at the beginning from the book of John: "The light shineth in darkness, and darkness comprehended it not".

Ever due to the fact I very first became conscious in the majestic and awe-inspiring presence of God, I've enjoyed reading many fantastic spiritual operates like the Bible (my favourite components would be the Sermon around the Mount and Psalms), the Bhagavad-Gita, the Upanishads, the Koran along with the poetry of Kabir and Rumi. None of them come close for 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 really like deep within you - deeper than anything you knew just before. The future starts to look so bright for you as well as your loved ones. You feel enjoy for everyone like these you previously have tried to leave excluded. These experiences are extremely potent and at times throw you off balance a little bit, however it is worth it: A Course in Miracles introduces you to a love so peaceful, so strong and so universal - you'll wonder how so many from the world's religions, whose aim is supposedly a comparable knowledge, got so off track.

I would like to say here to any Christian who feels that his church's teachings don't actually satisfy his thirst to understand a sort, merciful and loving God, but is somewhat afraid to study the Course since of others' claims that it is inconsistent with "true" Christianity: Don't be concerned! I have read the gospels many times and I assure you that a Course in Miracles is totally consistent with Jesus' teachings though he was on earth. Never fear the fanatical defenders of exclusionist dogma - these poor individuals think themselves to become the only carriers of Jesus' message, plus the only ones worthy of his blessings, even though all other will go to hell. A Course in Miracles reflects Jesus' accurate message: unconditional like for *all people*. Even though he was on earth, Jesus mentioned 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 undesirable, you can abandon A Course in Miracles. But if they taste as sweet as mine do, and the millions of other correct seekers who've located A Course in Miracles to be practically nothing much less than a heavenly treasure, then congratulations - and may your heart always be abundantly filled with peaceful, loving joy.
