A Course in Miracles is so pure, so superb, so potent, and so much far more spiritually advanced than any other piece of the world’s literature (past and present), that you have to in fact encounter it to believe it. But these whose minds are as well attached to worldly thoughts, and lack the underlying thirst for accurate spiritual information that is needed for its understanding, will likely not comprehend a single entire page. That is not because A Course in Miracles is confusing – on the contrary its principles are remarkably basic – but rather simply because it is the nature of spiritual expertise that those who are not ready to recognize it, just can’t recognize 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 considering that I first became aware of the majestic and awe-inspiring presence of God, I have enjoyed reading numerous fantastic spiritual works like the Bible (my favorite 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 aware of a marvelous love deep within you – deeper than something you knew prior to. The future begins to appear so vibrant for you and your loved ones. You really feel enjoy for everyone including these you previously have tried to leave excluded. These experiences are quite potent and at occasions throw you off balance a small, but it is worth it: A Course in Miracles introduces you to a really like so peaceful, so robust and so universal – you will wonder how so a lot of of the world’s religions, whose aim is supposedly a related encounter, got so off track.

I would like to say here to any Christian who feels that his church’s teachings do not truly satisfy his thirst to know a type, merciful and loving God, but is somewhat afraid to read the Course because of others’ claims that it is inconsistent with “true” Christianity: Do not be concerned! I have study the gospels numerous times and I assure you that a Course in Miracles is entirely constant with Jesus’ teachings while he was on earth. Never worry the fanatical defenders of exclusionist dogma – these poor people 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 enjoy for *all people*. Although 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 bad, you can abandon A Course in Miracles. But if they taste as sweet as mine do, and the millions of other accurate seekers who have located A Course in Miracles to be absolutely nothing less than a heavenly treasure, then congratulations – and may your heart often be abundantly filled with peaceful, loving joy.
