Welcome to A Course in Miracles -
The Free Searchable Online Version 🎉

A Course in Miracles (ACIM) is a psychological & spiritual course for removing the obstacles to the natural flow of Love, experiencing peace, and awakening to the Love you are.

In other words - it is a path to spiritual and psychological awakening, inner peace, and experiencing Love and oneness.

Despite how its name might sound like at first, A Course in Miracles is not about performing 'miracles,' 'manifesting your reality,' etc.
In fact, it's the opposite of that: it's a profound psychological & spiritual course that helps us wake up from the dream, rather than changing the dream.

Being a psychological course on top of a spiritual one, A Course in Miracle also dives into the dynamics of our ego-mind and helps you deal with your pain and suffering until you wake up.

One of the main benefits of that is that when understood correctly, ACIM supports your spiritual awakening while avoiding the 'spiritual bypass' and denial of your current experience that is so common amongst so many of the spiritual (and seemingly spiritual) paths.

A Course in Miracles is a very practical course; Alongside an impressive, profound, and transformational theoretical framework ("The Text" part of the course), it offers 365 daily exercises in its Workbook.

Being so practical, ACIM is not an invitation to merely gather more intellectual knowledge; it is an invitation to a process of questioning our stories, beliefs, and perceptions - so that you could wake up, psychologically and spiritually.

Still, A Course in Miracles does give us a framework of intellectual explanations and understandings as well, as it knows the way our mind works, and meets us where we really are in our journey to lead us through the path of awakening.

For example, one of the course's teachings is that metaphorically speaking, we are dreaming a dream in which we 'went down the ladder' from perfect oneness to separation and forgetfulness. This is discussed in The Text and The Manual For Teachers.

But being the practical course that it is, A Course in Miracles doesn't leave us with just the intellectual understanding. Instead, it is here to help us climb back up the metaphorical ladder, and wake up to the eternal reality of truth, love, and oneness.

It lovingly guides us there through the exercises in The Workbook and through correct - even if metaphorical - understanding of what’s going on here, and how we got to this situation in the first place.

With its loving, wise guidance, A Course in Miracles transformed the lives of many of those who chose to study - and practice - this wonderful book. The printed version alone sold well over 3 million copies and was translated to over 27 different languages.

ACIM uses your daily life and your mind to attain the spirit. It uses your current beliefs and experience of reality to reach the eternal, the divine Love that is in you and is you and is everything.

It uses learning and practice to attain an experience - and transformation. It knows you and understands you because it knows your mind, your psychology (conscious and unconscious) as a human being.

Like a wise, loving guide, it gently guides you from where you are - with all your anger, fear, guilt, judgment, anxiety, shame, defensiveness, and attacks - to an experience of peace, joy, and awakening - spiritually and psychologically.

A Course in Miracles is not a religion, and you can use it regardless of your belief, upbringing, or background. It does not ask you to belong to any group, membership, or church. 

It only asks you to be willing to "question every value that you hold" (Text, 24, Introduction), as A Course in Miracles helps and encourages us to see things differently.

It does that because what you believe, the way you see things, is the cause of your suffering and the thing that holds you from waking up. For that to change, you must be willing to re-consider your current point of view. You must be willing to let love in.

So here’s a surprising question:

Can it be that A Course in Miracles doesn’t speak of  'miracles' at all?

Maybe I should ask it this way:

What are the miracles that A Course in Miracles is talking about?

What does A Course in Miracles teach? 

What is A Course in Miracles all about?

In case you don’t know,

A Course in Miracles is a book of well over 1,000 pages,
and although it is a beautiful and extremely transformational course,
it is also very easy to lose sight of its message.

As the saying goes,
sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees.

So here’s something super important
that you want to always remember about A Course in Miracles:

What are 'miracles' in A Course in Miracles?

Forgiveness is the primary ‘tool,’ or practice, that the course offers us.

Properly used, forgiveness is a tool for psychological and spiritual growth.

It’s not just for feeling better with ourselves and in our relationships,
as important as that may be.

But like many other terms, Forgiveness too gets a different meaning in A Course in Miracles.

Throughout the entire course, there is a distinction between 2 thought systems:
That of the ego, and that of Love.

The course makes that distinction between Love’s and the ego’s thought systems
when it comes to Forgiveness as well.

A Course in Miracles was ‘dictated’ by Jesus, speaks of God and the Holy Spirit,
uses Christian terms such as Christ, atonement, salvation, sin, the son of god… 

But is A Course in Miracles Christian in its teachings?

Is it religious?

A Course in Miracles is very far from what it seems to be at first glance.

If you think it is Christian, or even if you think it is new-agey, you’re in for a surprise. 

If you were ever curious about A Course in Miracles and stayed away from it,
thinking that it is Christian or religious...

You can be at peace about that & give it a try.

If anything, ACIM is the opposite of that. Here's why:

Jesus Christ! Can it be that A Course in Miracles teaches the opposite of Christianity?

Many students and teachers of A Course in Miracles don't know or didn't know until the early years of the 21st century that there is more than one version of ACIM, and that the editing process of A Course in Miracles is considered controversial by some.

In fact, many around the world still don't.

For example, it is said that 45,000-50,000 words were omitted from the original handwritten notes that were dictated to Helen by Jesus (version 1 below) compared to the famous blue book, the FIP version (version 5 below). Most of the removed content was omitted from the first 7 chapters of "The Text" section of the book. 

It is also considered by some that while the editors intended to remove only personal materials relevant only to Helen and Bill, more than that was removed during the editing process - even if unintentionally.

For example, in the 1st chapter of the text, we find 53 principles of miracles in versions 1-4 of the course, compared to the 50 principles found in the famous FIP version (the fifth version below); With all honesty and respect to the editors' truly amazing and unimaginable work, the missing 3 miracles do not seem to be personal material that relates to Helen and Bill alone. Having said that, this is just an example. While some of the removed material doesn't seem personal or otherwise needs to be removed, some of it indeed is personal, and it makes total sense that it was removed.

In short, the different versions of A Course in Miracles correlate to the different phases of  scribing and editing the course:

Version 1: The original handwritten notes, written by Helen as they were dictated to her by the voice of Jesus during 1965-1972.

Version 2: The Thetford Transcript.

 A Course in Miracles is a book with 3 parts:

- The Text: This is the theoretical, or metaphysical, part of ACIM. It gives you the framework, the understanding, that helps make the most out of your practice. In the words of ACIM, "A theoretical foundation such as the text provides is necessary as a framework to make the exercises in this workbook meaningful." (A Course in Miracles, Workbook, Introduction)

-The Workbook: 365 daily practices to help you actually make the transformation you want and deserve in life, rather than only reading about it and 'achieving' intellectual understanding about it. As A Course in Miracles so beautifully says: "it is doing the exercises that will make the goal of the course possible. An untrained mind can accomplish nothing. It is the purpose of this workbook to train your mind to think along the lines the text sets forth." (A Course in Miracles, Workbook, Introduction)

- Manual For Teachers: A clear, concise, questions-and-answers style manual to help you better understand what A Course in Miracles is saying (hey, it's a long book...). This is easily one of my favorite parts of the book.

As the manual says, "This is a manual for the teachers of God. They are not perfect, or they would not be here. Yet it is their mission to become perfect here, and so they teach perfection over and over, in many, many ways, until they have learned it. And then they are seen no more, although their thoughts remain a source of strength and truth forever. Who are they? How are they chosen? What do they do? How can they work out their own salvation and the salvation of the world? This manual attempts to answer these questions." (A Course in Miracles, Manual For Teachers, Introduction)

✨It is important to note that the Manual For Teachers has nothing to do with being an 'official' or 'certified' teacher. ACIM has no church, no degrees, no titles, and no organization that you need to be a member of: "A teacher of God is anyone who chooses to be one. His qualifications consist solely in this; somehow, somewhere he has made a deliberate choice in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone else's. Once he has done that, his road is established and his direction is sure. A light has entered the darkness. It may be a single light, but that is enough. He has entered an agreement with God even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer of salvation. He has become a teacher of God." (A Course in Miracles, Manual For Teachers, 1. Who Are God's Teachers?)

You can start your journey with ACIM in any of these parts. Having said that, if it is practice that you want, starting with the Workbook is probably the best idea. If you want to deep-dive into A Course in Miracles' theoretical framework, the Text is where you'll find that. And if you'd like a clear and concise, questions-and-answers style explanation of major themes in ACIM, the Manual For Teachers is the place for you.
