Things I've Learned About '' a Course in Miracles''
Things I've Learned About '' A Course in Miracles''
1.The Holy encounter
- ''When you meet anyone,remember
it is a holy encounter.As you see him, you will see yourself.As you treat him,you will treat yourself.As you think of him, you will think of yourself.never forget this,for in him you will find yourself or lose yourself.
2. ''To teach is to demonstrate''
- As we demonstrate love towards others,we learn that we are lovable and we learn how to love deeply.As we demonstrate fear or negativity, we learn self condemnation,and we learn to feel more frightened of life.We will always learn what we have chosen to teach.
3. Forgiveness in Relationships
- ''Forgiveness takes away what stands between your brother and yourself.''
- Forgiveness is the choice to see people as they are now.When we are angry because of something they said or did is not who they are.Relationships are reborn as we let go of perceptions of our brother's past.
''By bringing the past into the present,we create a future just like past.by letting go,we make room for miracles.
4. The Holy Relationship
- The purpose of a special relationship is to teach us to hate ourselves while the purpose of a holy relationship is to heal us of our self-loathing.in the special relationship,we are always trying to hide our weaknesses.in the holy relationship,its understood that we are all have unhealed places and that healing is the purpose of our being with another person.We don't try to hide our weaknesses,but rather we understand that the relationship is a context for healing through mutual forgiveness.
5. Wonderful Relationships.
- We don't have to remind God that we'd like wonderful relationships.He's already clear about that.A '' COURSE IN MIRACLES'' teaches that a desire is a prayer.The most enlightened prayer isn't ''DEAR GOD,SEND ME SOMEONE WONDERFUL,'' but, ''DEAR GOD,HELP ME REALIZE THAT I AM SOMEONE WONDERFUL''..
Looking for Mr.Right leads to desperation because there is no Mr.Right, There is no Mr.Right because there is no Mr.Wrong..There is whatever is in front of us and the perfect lessons to be learned from that person..
