Kenneth could you recomment me a good forum on ACIM..? I re-try the course
after it didn’t get me 🙂 a few years ago, but strait away i’m full of all
kinds of questions ..
If the answer to the question “How do you know the earth is round?” is “I’m
not exactly sure that it is”, then the answer to “Who is the author?” is
“I’m not exactly sure.”
Seems plausible to me that Helen Schucman merely tranced into a
more-or-less egoless state, while using the religious framework of which
she was raised around to help explain her ideals.
Kenneth, wonderful review. Simplified, and encouraging. I first was
introduced to this book five years ago by a co-worker, and it was
overwhelming, and seemed to be jumbled talk by a psychologist. I gave the
book back within a month. However, two years ago I had this strong need to
get the book again, and I ran out to purchase it. Surprisingly, it was easy
to understand everything I laid eyes on. In fact, reading its philosophical
non-traditional Christian teachings helped me read the KJV bible with a new
eyes, and gained more understanding. It really does move you to focus on
your connection with God, and step away from your ego. I am more peaceful,
and have a wider unifying attitude than before.
And all the verifiable history of the bible is of people that really lived,
the Jewish people and their history and all the people that currently live
today who claim the resurrection is true, all the martyers and the
verifiable prophecies that came about, all the archaelogical findings are
merely illusions of your mind. The words in the Course in Miracles trump
all this and the special revelation of the authors give you permission to
reason away a ton of facts! Truth itself becomes an illusion! Untruth has
no meaning as well.
Well done!! Thank you for mentioning George Bush, because he was the most
difficult for me to forgive! But forgiveness came! I’m so pleased there’s
nobody there! Keep up the great work!
I do believe it was Jesus who was talking to the writer. I have read the
bible and to me I was confused because certain things were said but not
really explained into detail. Course of Miracles words sound like Jesus is
speaking and explaining all of the teachings he shared about who we really
are and forgiveness and love was the monumental message. .I love this book
cause it really stirs up my inner self to see the truth of how much I am
loved and I now understand what Jesus was saying in the Bible. Thank you
Mr.Bok for explaining and for unveiling the true Author of this great book.
Ken, thanks very much. Enjoyed this vid. I am 62 and started meditating
(under great teacher) 2 years ago. Meditation has “made me less angry and
more peaceful”. 😉
I have a hard time getting through large books, but ACIM seems like it
would be worth trying. Thanks again, Dave F.
I am still studying it and I plan to be a teacher concerning this profound
message. Mr Bok, What changes have you experienced through this course in
your life? Thanks for sharing
Hi Kenneth, I like your explanation very much!! I started with the Course
on April 1st. I find it very clear and ‘know’ it is the Truth. Thank you
very much and I will become member on you channel. Love, Wilma from the
Netherlands
Hello Kenneth, Thank you for your wonderful work.I have been a student of
the Course for 4 years have come through many layers of understanding.
Since ACIM is a self study it is sometimes a lonely journey. It has been a
great blessing in the last year and a half to find teachers on the
internet. You all have confirmed to me that I am not losing, but gaining my
mind. Thank you for your time your sharing and your love.
yeah, but philosophy is a human endeavor, it is a “view of life” from an
individual human perspective, not the perspective of the Holy Spirit. ACIM
is from the Holy Spirit’s perspective which is probably something we can’t
pretend to fully comprehend while in a body. :o) But i hear what you’re
saying.
It looks to me like his ego has hijacked his spirituality and this is more
common than many people realise. The ego is the sneakiest, most cunning
system imaginable and it will wait patiently, playing dead for as long as
it takes for the right moment to sneak back in and hijack our minds without
our awareness. We then still think we are awake and all spiritual……but
in reality our ego rules once again with more discretion and subtlety.
Hello my friend, I wasn’t implying that the author of ACIM was an imposter.
I would like to believe that the author is Jesus Christ himself, but I have
no revelation that it is or isn’t. I refer to the book off and on, and
enjoy it very much! Keep up the good work. Your video is very good. Better
then alot I have seen on the subject.
Just one point: ACIM isn’t really “philosophy”. It outlines the Truth of
our existence and then it SHOWS you the truth of your existence. It is a
guide that culminates in what must be considered a MYSTICAL EXPERIENCE (the
Revelation). thanks!
Kennneth, what is your fist language? Have you read that translation yet? I
also doit in Spanih, and going to start the exercises in Italian to
practice. Love, Leandro
hi Kenneth, so good to have you on my telly to talk about course 🙂 loved
it, I am subscribing. Always good to remind oneself and by reminding to
accept the truth and align oneself with it. <3
You are really uglyyyyyy
This guy is awesome…

forgiveness?

Bravo, Kenneth! I’m totally sharing this with my 770-some-odd friends on

The bigger the name…………the more chance the ego has got to sneak
back in.

Singlish! (Singaporean-English) 🙂
Merci! 🙂
Mystical experiences yes, encounters with masters no, (well, who knows, I
may have met many undercover ones already ha ha)..
why obsess over a word? Perceptions are all that matters.
@maxgreenster Thanks Max 🙂
Very thoughtful. Thank you.
