Editorial Reviews

From the Author

This book grew out of a weekend intensive on "Bringing the Course to Life." The impact on the participants of the techniques and approaches we offered was so great that we decided to turn the workshop material into a book.

We offer these techniques and approaches to you in the hope that they do for you what they have done for us––that they enable you to unlock the meaning of "A Course in Miracles" for yourself.

This review is from: Bringing the Course to Life: How to Unlock the Meaning of A Course in Miracles for Yourself (Paperback)

This volume by Allen Watson & Robert Perry, #24 in a series based on A COUSE IN MIRACLES, IS USELESS. The interminable references in parenthesis to what is presumably other parts of the series don't help unlock the meaning of the Course. The authors should refrain from publishing a separate book on their own understanding of the Course.

This volume deserves NO Star.
