Metaphysics- the Miracles of Spiritual Living
Final Essay Rev. Lucinda Parker
In 1996 as a result of a personal incident I thoroughly studied A Course in Miracles. I had no phone, no tv, no job and a real need to discover. Dr. Loretta M. Siani’s, course is absolutely the best discussion of the ACIM philosophy I have ever seen. She has remained true to the teachings and thoughts of ACIM. It was a great review for me. It actually was a wake up call for me.
The lessons are well thought out and logically organized. Letting go, surrendering our egotistical beliefs, learning to accept and pay attention, performing true miracles in our own life are the core philosophy of ACIM. Dr. Siani takes each principle and explains, expands, and makes one really think. Most importantly, this course makes us personally and spiritually act.
I needed a refresher in some areas. This course came into my life, again, at the right time. And while I am not suffering from any personal dramas at this time, this course made me realize that I was straying from my own personal power ever so slowly, but ever so definitely! Even what we envision as success can cause destructive imbalance within our life, and I was headed there.
The most important lesson, and the one I was totally forgetting about, particularly at work, is about perception and being right. We get wrapped around ideas that we think are the only truth, that we must be right. That ego within us will destroy us. As I worked through the perceptions and beliefs that I was feeling at work, I realized I needed to realign my thinking and adjust my behavior. I’m glad to report that the stress and frustration I was feeling two months ago with individuals at work is gone. I can see the situations and people for what is really occurring. I don’t come home upset anymore and the stress dreams have stopped.
Thank you for offering this course in Miracles. I enjoyed it and it has put me back on track.
