From Words to Experience in A Course in Miracles

In contemporary spirituality, we are told to "go beyond concepts and words" to a more direct connection with God. We are told not to be too "in our heads" because thinking blocks spiritual experience. These are very popular teachings, but how should we view these ideas as students of A Course in Miracles, especially given that the Course is 2,000 pages of words? Not surprisingly, the Course has its own answer to this question - namely, it's is asking us to use words as a way to go beyond words. To put it another way, we're meant to use words as the vehicle to reach experience and, in this episode, Robert and Emily share what that means and how the Course asks us to do it.

Again, so timely…I needed to be reminded of how little focus I apply to the lesson at times and how tolerant I am to mindless mind wandering during the day. And on another point…I just love how you can both laugh with each other and not at each others unique quirkiness…onliness! So thx for the great lesson and the wonderful demonstration of what it means to accept each other and join in joy and laughter. In gratitude always…

This episode was a great delivery device for Course wisdom. Thank you.

This was very good, thank you. I’ve been reading the Course in a deeply contemplative way from the start - that’s the only way you can really understand it at all I think - but I’ve noticed that the more deeply I understand it, the slower I read it! To the point where I usually spend at least an hour on a shorter section. And the meaning just gets more and more profound. I think the issue with words is that in normal life we learn to process their meaning on a very superficial level, because there’s no need to do more than that. So we really have to train ourselves to slow down and seek the deep meaning of the ideas communicated by the words in the Course. Then they can become like gateways to a remembering of Truth, in the same way that art and music can. Personally I find this impossible to do when listening to someone reading out the text or lessons, it needs to be absorbed at your own pace not someone else’s.

Well done! Practical

This is amazing, i typically think of meditation as a story character releasing the story. Now i also see it as a story character thinking only of their author.

just at that point about the paradox god does not know words and also says words are sacred. thankfully the course does have that variance because its a process we can study the course for a life time. But there are times our full attention needs pinning down developing grow roots. so we dont wonder too much and give up its not always easy going for the unseasoned student.

@@tonydimegwu691 Hi Tony! You can order via our store at circleofa.org. I understand shipping is an issue so you can also check out the free app acimce.app (you can also download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play). On the app you can read, listen, and search the Complete and Annotated Edition of the Course. ♥️

@@CircleOfAtonement This is great. I am going to avail myself of the opportunity. Grazie

Ads are so distracting - ruins the whole video

@CircleOfAtonement Месяц назад

We agree the ads are distracting but, unfortunately, that is outside of our control. RU-vid determines what ads go where and when.

@VanEazy Месяц назад

I completely agree! And I’ve found that investing a few dollars here and there for commercial free experiences, like RU-vid Premium, are worth their weight in gold!
