Book Description
A Course in Miracles is a spiritual path that focuses on the forgiveness of others and the release from guilt and fear. Its focus is practical, yet the entire path rests on a lofty vision of ultimate reality.
In expressing this vision, the Course answers age-old questions, such as, What is real? Does God exist? What is our true nature? Why am I here? The Course's answers are profound, but often hard to understand, and the goal of this book is to organize and present the Course's metaphysics in a way that is coherent and understandable.
Topics include:
Time and space vs. infinity and eternity
The nature of God; the nature of Christ
The criteria for what is real
Common sense reality
Heaven
Reflections on the nature of the world
The message of A Course in Miracles
