The Happy Scrapper

A Course in Miracles is so pure, so wonderful, so potent, and so significantly far more spiritually sophisticated than any other piece of the world’s literature (previous and present), that you have to actually encounter it to think it. But these whose minds are also attached to worldly thoughts, and lack the underlying thirst for accurate spiritual knowledge that is necessary for its understanding, will likely not comprehend a single complete web page. That is not since A Course in Miracles is confusing – on the contrary its principles are remarkably simple – but rather due to the fact it is the nature of spiritual understanding that these who are not ready to understand it, just cannot 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 because I first became conscious of the majestic and awe-inspiring presence of God, I have enjoyed reading numerous fantastic spiritual works like the Bible (my preferred components 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 turn into conscious of a marvelous enjoy deep within you – deeper than anything you knew ahead of. The future starts to look so bright for you and your loved ones. You feel adore for everyone such as those you previously have tried to leave excluded. These experiences are really potent and at instances throw you off balance a small, but it is worth it: A Course in Miracles introduces you to a really like so peaceful, so strong and so universal – you will wonder how so a lot of of 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 do not genuinely satisfy his thirst to know a type, merciful and loving God, but is somewhat afraid to read the Course simply because of others’ claims that it is inconsistent with “true” Christianity: Never worry! I have study the gospels several times and I assure you that a Course in Miracles is entirely constant with Jesus’ teachings whilst he was on earth. Never fear the fanatical defenders of exclusionist dogma – these poor people feel 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’ correct message: unconditional enjoy for *all men and women*. While he was on earth, Jesus said 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 correct seekers who have found A Course in Miracles to be nothing at all much less than a heavenly treasure, then congratulations – and could your heart constantly be abundantly filled with peaceful, loving joy.
