Download or read book A Course in Miracles Explanations of Major Themes written by Michael Dawson and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Course in Miracles can be difficult to understand on first reading as it is written on quite a high intellectual level. It can help to read some introductory material alongside a study of the Course. This series of articles and diagrams is presented with that in mind. This eBook begins with some brief, introductory material covering how A Course in Miracles came, what it is and a summary with charts. It is followed by a collection of 33 articles and diagrams I have written over recent years; they explore many of the themes found in the Course, including the metaphysical and practical teachings. At the end of this book you will find two 'bonus chapters' ('Healing Ourselves' and 'The Ladder of Forgiveness') - excerpts from two of my other books (Healing the Cause and The Findhorn Book of Forgiveness). A Course in Miracles has been the inspiration for this book. What I have written is my own interpretation of some of the principles in the Course and, as such, it cannot match the depth and purity of the original teaching. If you find my writings of interest I would encourage you to study the Course's teaching, for which there can be no substitute.

Download or read book Journey Through the Manual of A Course in Miracles written by Kenneth Wapnick Ph. D. and published by Foundation for a Course in Miracles. This book was released on 2007 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manual has its place in the curriculum of the Course by virtue of its role in explaining how we should teach this course, which means how we should learn it. Its purpose is to guide us in becoming teachers of God through demonstration. In one way or another, each section is about learning how to accomplish this. This line-by-line presentation of the manual is organized around two major themes and variations of these two themes, thus demonstrating through the use of this musical form the masterful way in which Jesus weaves together his message. The first theme unifies all of the seemingly disparate questions posed in the manual-that of separate versus shared interests. This theme is the core of the Course's concept of forgiveness. It is what makes healing possible, and is also the basis of the important topic in the text: the distinction between form and content. It emphasizes that we are all the same, reflecting the much larger theme of the Oneness of God's Son, and his perfect unity with his Creator and Source. The second theme is equally important-in fact, it would not be possible to learn that our interests are shared without it. It is the key to the practice of the Course: asking the Holy Spirit for help. By asking help of our inner Teacher, we become aware of our wrong-minded thought system. In what the Course refers to as our right mind, the Holy Spirit gently corrects our misperceptions.

It was a surprise to gutsy, Kirsten Buxton when Jesus appeared to her, announcing he would be her guide. At twenty-seven years of age, a serious bike accident had left her physically, psychologically, and emotionally devastated, with no control over her life. Having had no previous relationship with Jesus, she began studying A Course in Miracles, and developing trust in the Spirit within. Miraculously, world-renowned teacher of A Course in Miracles, David Hoffmeister, visited her hometown. Jesus told Kirsten to trust this man completely in order to experience a relationship like no other. Her courageous acceptance of this guidance opened her heart and mind in ways she never could have imagined. Throughout this diary of radical self-inquiry, Kirsten candidly exposes her fears, projections, and private thoughts whilst on an epic adventure of holy relationship with a tirelessly happy mystic! A must read for those seeking to intimately apply non-dual spiritual teachings in every aspect of daily experience: in the bedroom, the bathroom, and even the supermarket. This profound and often humorous account is literally a ‘how-to’ guide for awakening.
Download or read book What it Says written by Kenneth Wapnick and published by Foundation for a Course in Miracles. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One year after A Course in Miracles was published in 1976, in response to requests for an introduction that could be handed out to interested people as a way of presenting the Course and explaining its origin, its scribe Helen Schucman agreed to write one. It was in three parts and was called the Preface. As the third of this three-part Preface, "What It Says" was scribed by Helen by the same process of inner dictation from Jesus as was the Course itself. It introduces, as would a musical overture, the major themes to be discussed, thus providing a succinct overview of the spiritual journey presented in A Course in Miracles. It is a remarkable piece, elevating the reader to the same level of form and content found in the Course itself,. This book offers a line-by-line journey through this beautifully written document, in many ways a minor masterpiece.

Download or read book The Dew Breaker written by Edwidge Danticat and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We meet him late in life: a quiet man, a good father and husband, a fixture in his Brooklyn neighborhood, a landlord and barber with a terrifying scar across his face. As the book unfolds, moving seamlessly between Haiti in the 1960s and New York City today, we enter the lives of those around him, and learn that he has also kept a vital, dangerous secret. Edwidge Danticat’s brilliant exploration of the “dew breaker”--or torturer--s an unforgettable story of love, remorse, and hope; of personal and political rebellions; and of the compromises we make to move beyond the most intimate brushes with history. It firmly establishes her as one of America’s most essential writers. BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Edwidge Danticat's Claire of the Sea Light.

Book excerpt: No matter how much is learned, if that learning remains in our heads, it is not enough.

A new and more receptive way of knowing is needed, and is found in this course for the heart. "A Course of Love" was received by Mari Perron and given to be a "new" course in miracles.

Download or read book The Sins of Scripture written by John Shelby Spong and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the history of the Western World, the Bible has been a perpetual source of inspiration and guidance for countless Christians. However, this Bible has also left a trail of pain. It is undeniable that the Bible is not always used for good. Sometimes the Bible can seem overtly evil. Sometimes its texts are terrible. Bishop John Shelby Spong boldly approaches those texts that have been used through history to justify the denigration or persecution of others while carrying with them the implied and imposed authority of the claim that they were the "Word of God." As he exposes and challenges what he calls the "terrible texts of the Bible", laying bare the evil done by these texts in the name of God, he also seeks to redeem these texts, hoping to recover their ultimate depth and purpose. Spong looks specifically at texts used to justify homophobia, anti-Semitism, treating women as second-class humans, corporal punishment, and environmental degradation, but he also delivers a new picture of how Christians can use the Bible today. As Spong battles against the way the Bible has been used throughout history, he provides a new framework, introducing people to a proper way to engage this holy book of the Judeo-Christian tradition.

Download or read book The Case Against Miracles written by John W. Loftus and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For as long as the idea of "miracles" has been in the public sphere, the conversation about them has been shaped exclusively by religious apologists and Christian leaders. The definitions for what a miracles are have been forged by the same men who fought hard to promote their own beliefs as fitting under that umbrella. It's time for a change. Enter John W. Loftus, an atheist author who has earned three master's degrees from Lincoln Christian Seminary and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Loftus, a former student of noted Christian apologist William Lane Craig, got some of the biggest names in the field to contribute to this book, which represents a critical analysis of the very idea of miracles. Incorporating his own thoughts along with those of noted academics, philosophers, and theologians, Loftus is able to properly define "miracle" and then show why there's no reason to believe such a thing even exists. Addressing every single issue that touches on miracles in a thorough and academic manner, this compilation represents the most extensive look at the phenomenon ever displayed through the lens of an ardent nonbeliever. If you've ever wondered exactly what a miracle is, or doubted whether they exist, then this book is for you.

Book excerpt: A leading spiritual teacher of the twentieth century presents meditation as a tool for better understanding not just ourselves but the world around us These selections present the core of Krishnamurti's teaching on meditation, taken from discussions with small groups, as well as from public talks to large audiences. His main theme is the essential need to look inward, to know ourselves, in order really to understand our own—and the world's—conflicts.
