|
|
There is a lot of information on the internet about A Course In Miracles,
which I will call ACIM for ease. The Wiki
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Course_in_Miracles article is quite
informative.
There is an official site http://www.acim.org/ and even a daily lessons site
http://www.themiracletimes.com/
As a group, those who ascribe to ACIM seem quite an organized and virtuous
lot.
I read it about the same time as when I read the Urantia Book and visited
the Near Death Experience monthly group, many years ago. I kind of think of
it as my New Age era. I think that part of my life was valuable to me, and I
know it helped shape who I am today.
In any case, I just want to let everyone know that I am open to discussion
about any aspect of ACIM.
Thanks for reading. --Kent |

Kent:
Since you posted those, I put together a huge collection of ACIM links
a while back. Hopefully, most of them will still work:

All of the links work, Mark, except the top one, the "complete text".
Presumably there is a copyright.
Most of what I read in your links makes ACIM look like a business.

Thanks. I'll check it.

It *is* a business. Quite a number of people have become wealthy
selling ACIM-related books, going on lecture tours, etc. ACIM is the
most popular new-agey program out there. There is also considerable
dissention on various issues, including which version of the ACIM text
to use.
