WHAT IS A COURSE IN MIRACLES – ORIGINAL EDITION?

The Course is the result of the collaboration between two Columbia University psychologists: Dr. William Thetford and his colleague, Dr. Helen Schucman.

In 1965, Helen experienced what she described as a Voice that spoke clearly in her mind, saying ā€œThis is a course in miracles. Please take notes.ā€ With Thetford’s support and assistance in transcribing her shorthand notes, Dr. Schucman took down some 1,500 typewritten pages of A Course in Miracles over a period of seven years.

As she often explained, she heard a kind of inner dictation and felt compelled to write it down, even though at times she disagreed with the content and resisted the process. The voice, which spoke through Helen, clearly identified himself as Jesus.

The "original edition" is the unabridged volume of the Course as it was completed by Dr. Schucman and Dr. Thetford in 1972 and before further editing had taken place.

WHAT IS COURSE IN MIRACLES SOCIETY?

Course in Miracles Society [CIMS] is a 501 (c)(3) [non-profit] organization incorporated in 2000 which holds the copyright on A Course in Miracles Original edition©. It is an international group of Course students and teachers organized to discover, authenticate, and propagate the Divine Teachings of A COURSE IN MIRACLES.

As students, we seek to increase our knowledge of Jesus' words and to deepen our experience of His teaching.

As teachers, we work to circulate the message of A COURSE IN MIRACLES throughout the world by our words, our deeds, and by the example of our lives.

WHY ARE THERE PEARLS ON THE COVER?

In the months preceding the beginning of the dictation of A Course in Miracles, Dr. Helen Schucman experienced a series of vivid waking and sleeping dreams. In three of those dreams, she was presented with a book. It was thick and black and had large gold letters on the cover. In one of those dreams, she saw it draped in a strand of pearls.

That image is reproduced in the artwork for this edition in homage to Dr. Schucman’s perseverance and dedication to the completion of the Course.

There is an ancient symbolism to pearls. From the earliest of times, pearls have been considered miraculous. Unique in all the world of nature, their beauty comes from the most mundane of substances, and yet, it is somehow transformed by a living organism into one of the most beautiful objects known to man.

And it is the way pearls "play" with light that gives them their fascinating beauty and their almost mythical status. Pearls have become, in other words, an archetypal image of what can happen to the human mind that dedicates itself to perfection, utilizing the hard knocks of daily living as a stimulus to growth.

"The Pearl of Great Price".

That which is of such momentous value that you would sell all that you own to possess it.

"Pearls of Wisdom"

Thoughts that illuminate and simplify one’s thinking, bringing peace and clarity.

ā€œA String of Pearlsā€

A veritable chain of wisdom and insights, spreading out and then interweaving as a string of brilliant flashes that lighten up the very dark world around us.

This app worked great until a month or so ago and it just broke. Now the pop up reminders don't come at time cued. Checked my phone settings and doesn't seem to be on my end--tho possible! Strange. Even uninstalled (which meant I lost all my bookmarked affirmations :( ) and reinstalled and still not working. Any update?? Added: Thanks for your timely reply and update. If you let me know when it happens I will FOR SURE change my Star rating!!

Our developers have completely revamped the ACIM OE mobile app. Also, they are currently in the process of making all updates sync with the APP that the User has already downloaded. Then none of the bookmarks, highlighting, or Notes will be lost. The project should be done around June 15th. [We hope you will change the STAR count at that time. ;-]

So far so GREAT...,, just downloaded it and took a quick look, it's got it all everything a student could want or need ( I am a devote student of the Course for about 3 years or so) and the fact that you guys offer this kind of quality for free is really where it touches my heart ā™„ļø I can truly feel the Love .., so thank you guys YOU ARE AMAZING. - Update : I have used the reminders, both voice and text, and it's giving me a " ERROR HTTP 500 ". Hope you can fix this. (Still 5 starr imo)

Thank you so much for the 5 stars!! To enable Dark Mode, you must enable it on the phone itself, not in the app. Please let us know if you have any difficulties with this. On Android, it is Settings > Display > Dark theme. Regarding NOTES sorting, we will check with the developers in the next update. ;-) Blessings!!
