Book Reviews of A Course in Miracles: Combined VolumeBook Review: yes, yes, Yes, Yes, YES, YESSSS! Summary: 5 Stars
Over the years I read about "A Course in Miracles" referenced in other books. On occasion I would pick it up in a bookstore and look at it briefly, but found it to be confusing. It wasn't until after we read "Disappearance of the Universe" by Gary Renard that my husband and I decided to read the "Course," and oh what a difference that has made in our lives! The message of this book is the Truth, folks. I highly recommend that anybody interested in the Course first read "Disappearance" as a primer for the Course. But I recommend everyone read the Course. The message Jesus gives in the Course is what he was trying to say when he was here on this earth, but earthly egos got in the way. If you want to know who you are and what life is all about, this book will tell you. Becoming a student of the Course will help you to experience the joy and peace that we are all searching for and that is our rightful inheritance because that is how we were created - to "teach only love, for that is what you are"! The more I read the Course (and I'm on the second reading of it) the truer it rings, the more deeply I understand God and our relationship to him. The Truth floods my heart with a joyful YES, YES, YES!!!
Book Review: Music to my ears Summary: 5 Stars
This book is amazing. It is a masterpiece of mind training and cutting edge philosophy. It leads the reader towards a peaceful interpretation of life.
I found this work when I was having severe health issues and was in deep despair. It did not disappoint me. Working with the lessons I was able to find new attitudes towards my problems that gave me hope. Eventually this led to actual physical healing.
This book delves heavily into the function of the relationship in healing and as identity. This was way before people were talking about "quantum entanglement" and the "intersubjective" perspective. Each reading brings new insights. Applying it to your own life brings about a deep sense of connection.
The text can be thick at times. I have met many people who have been turned off by this factor. It's well worth the work to understand it. I began to sing the lessons to myself to make them easier to integrate and memorize. Since much of the lessons are in iambic pentameter, this works very well. They even work well as rap music!

Book Review: RETURN Summary: 5 Stars
After a near death experience I spent a decade trying to get back to that experience of pure love. Death is not the end of anything, it is an opening to completeness. In fact there is no such thing as death, just a trick played out in the mind. As the Course states you do not leave this world by death you leave it by truth. I can not express my complete gratitude I have towards this book. After searching for many years with no avail to suffering, this book brought me home. I hope to repay my gratitude towards mankind by doing some spiritual talks on near death and I have started towards my Life Coaching Diploma. To all those in search of pure truth, please I urge you to study the course. Many Groups meet on a regular basis to study and the complete audio books are available online [...].
May all beings be free
Book Review: Life Changing Summary: 5 Stars
This book changed my life. It helps me learn how to love people and myself. I have studied religions, metaphysics, and new age philosophies and this book is easily the most important book I have ever read. I have been a student of the course for 16 years and as a result I am full of peace, love, and happiness and see the world through eyes of love. It has healed my relationships with people in my life as well as soothed my anxieties.
The text is very challenging to read and it is helpful to have a study group or a primer to help you understand the topics. The workbook is easy to follow and gently guides you through 365 practical and effective daily meditations.
Do yourself a favor and buy this book. Do the people in your life a favor and practice its principles. :)
Book Review: Life Changeing Expeirence-Gods Gift to us! Summary: 5 Stars
A Course in Miracles is unlike any book I have ever read. It changed my soul-It has helped bring me to the Truth-Gods Truth and Mine. It teaches that we must forgive ourselves and others-truly forgive-and this is the beginning of our salvation. I believe every word of this book and believe every word is God. I am Catholic, 54, and just now with the help of this book found the path to my salvation. I probably sound like a religious fanatic, but I am just excited and feel profoundly blessed to be given what I consisder a great, great blessing. I have found the path to God. You must be ready to understand the enlightenment or awakening that is discussed in this book. If you are not ready you may not understand the book. I was ready. I highly recommend A Course in Miracles. Gods gift to us.
