Illusion

2006-01-28T18:24:00.000-06:00

I'm posting the new readings for the topic of Illusions, along with the listing of pages which can be used with the text instead of printing out the readings.

However, Reading 14 is from two books outside our text, Psychotherapy: Purpose, Process and Practice, and The Song of Prayer. I would recommend printing out Reading 14 in this series if you don't have these books.

Trying a new method

2006-01-24T20:20:00.000-06:00

The printouts are pretty lengthy, and I'm bundling sections now instead of single paragraphs, so maybe a listing would be more helpful.
This would require having your book with you, and finding portions of the reading.
Let's try it out over the next few weeks and decide which method works best.

Stuff to get started

2005-08-02T10:31:00.000-05:00

Welcome! We're glad you are considering joining us!

Here's how to prepare for our workshops:

All readings are PDF files (adobe acrobat reader is needed to open and print this file). If you do not have adobe acrobat on your computer, you can download the free reader from this site:
Adobe Acrobat Download Site

For the first meeting, you'll need to read the Description of A Course In Miracles, and the Reading for Relationships Workshop 1.

Sometimes there will be extra readings that dovetail nicely with our work from A Course in Miracles. Links to such books is under Workshop Extras:

A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson is based on A Course in Miracles and has a Chapter on Relationships.

A Course In Miracles, the textbook

2005-08-02T00:14:00.000-05:00

If you are interested in buying a copy of the course book itself, you can get it at Amazon.com.

I can recommend the used copies as I buy these quite often and find the descriptions of their condition to be quite accurate.
