A COURSE IN MIRACLES
Try not to be put off by the format of this book, nor the fact that when you are reading it, especially for the first time, you may not be able to take large sections of it in. Please just continue and eventually you will come onto a section that will suddenly mean something to you personally. I was tempted not to buy this book and read instead books that have been written as a consequence of others reading this book...I am so glad that I was brave enough not to opt for this shortcut. 'A Course in Miracles' is a personal journey and a journey that no other author can take for you. If your life's journey has taken you to the moment when you clicked onto Amazon and you typed into the search option...'A Course in Miracles', then this will be the moment that your life will change for ever, you will discover that your life and the lives of the people that you meet can be different and that there is a practical power you can harness that practiced over time will bring you peace and happiness. Don't let the moment pass you by. As the authors of this book would say...it is a choice between heaven and hell. Best wishes to you all!

A true miracle of words
It is not very often we come across a book that says so much about who we are and why we are here. The error in perception, the illusion of separation, and why there is no such thing as guilt and sin are all central to its theme, and yet there is so much more. The wording of the text is almost biblical in tone, but such is the strength of its message it cannot fail to inspire those who open its pages. If you are genuine in your desire to understand the true meaning of your existence, including the cause of all your pain and suffering, then this really is the beginning of a journey that will change your life forever.

`Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it was lost to you through your desire for something else. Open the holy place that you closed off by valuing the "something else," and what was never lost will quietly return.'

It is a truly inspirational book without comparison. My only advice is that you take your time and understand the true depth of its message.

A Book for Life
Firstly, this is not an easy book. It took me four goes to finally get through it. It can be turgid in its prose and repetitive in its content. Its subject matter can be, at times, wildly difficult to grasp. And yet . . .

Yet it may just be the most important book ever published.

I walked away from the Bible and orthodox religion some years ago. There was just too much that I simply could not accept. Too many unanswered questions.

But this book has a wholeness, a completeness which leaves no question unanswered. The logic of the case it presents is faultless.

Buy this book by all means. And dont get demoralised if you cant get through it on the first try. Or the second! Remember me! This book starts where the Bible leaves off, and I do not mean Revelations! This book is a philosophy of life, a guide and an explanation. You owe it to yourself to read it.

But do not expect it to be easy!
