Salvation is a promise made by God that we are not separate from God, and that the illusion that we are separate will end. It is a promise that our current state of confusion, despair, struggle and pain is not real and will pass away, taking all its effects with it. Nothing happened.

ACIM Miracle Principles: An Introduction
You can also skip to the full index. A Course in Miracles is not a handbook for a lifelong spiritual practice of nondual bliss. It is not a new age fantasy of oneness with the cosmos.

In A Course in Miracles, time is a human construct the Holy Spirit uses to help us remember our identity in Creation. ItContinue reading “The Forty-Seventh Principle of A Course in Miracles”
