Living A Course in Miracles

Book excerpt: The essential guide to one of the most influential spiritual works ever written. In 1976, a mysterious “Inner Voice” called out to a woman named Helen Schucman, dictating a system of belief that ultimately became A Course in Miracles. This book, totaling 1,333 pages, went on to sell more than two million copies around the world. Its lessons are meant to be digested one at a time; those who study ACIM do so over years, often struggling to progress through its resonant but difficult-to-comprehend truths. Jon Mundy-who knew the Courses founders and the text from the very beginning-is the perfect guide to the books central tenets. Using passages from ACIM, he illuminates its teachings on such subjects as the self, forgiveness, desire, health, money, addiction, and the afterlife. Through Jons lively storytelling and in-depth knowledge of the Courses wisdom, readers gain wisdom that might otherwise have taken them a lifetime to grasp.
