“Teach only Love for that is what You Are”
A Course in Miracles Study Group
"We serve life not because it is broken, but because it is Holy" Mother Teresa
Study Group
A Course in Miracles helps one "undo the past in the present, and thus release the future".
You are invited to join with others in a read-and-discuss format. Although this three part book is designed for self study, meeting in a group setting can enhance its ability to understand its message. It is designed to help one begin to "remove the blocks to the awareness of Love's presence, which is your natural inheritance".
The facilitator for this group is Laurin Kyle Boyle, a 5 year "student" of A Course in Miracles and an Ordained Minister with Pathways of Light whose Ministry is based on the principles of A Course in Miracles.
There is no fee to attend & all are welcome
Although A Course in Miracles is a self-study course, many people have found it helpful to read and discuss the material with others. These groups have formed independently and are not focused around any central organization. It seems to appeal to people from many walks of life and various religious affiliations.
One purpose of the Course is to help students get in touch with their own Internal Teacher. It helps people heal the sense of separation and loneliness that many feel. Each of the three volumes of A Course in Miracles has a specific direction.
The "Text" is designed to present many ideas on a theoretical level. Much of how people perceive the world is based on their preexisting perceptions. The text explores this, and shows how it applies to how the world "seems".
The 365 lesson "Workbook" provides a practical daily experience of the philosophies presented in the text. This is where the healing of self identity and of relationships reaches deeply. Happiness happens as negative or limiting attitudes are transformed.
The "Manual for Teachers" answers questions students may have and further defines terms as it guides one through a new way of looking at all things, with forgiveness, to an attitude of peace and joy.
Contact me. We are presently meeting on Wednesday evenings in Squamish and a new group can form in Whistler if there is enough interest.
Welcome to A Course in Miracles Study Group
This is a special opportunity for you to learn more deeply what a wonderful and holy person you
already are! As you become more at peace and joyful in your everyday thoughts and actions, you
will begin to radiate that spirit out into the world. As we change who we perceive we are, the
world seems to change too. That is the MIRACLE that A Course in Miracles is referring to. Our
self concept affects how we perceive the world. And the greatest healing that occurs is to
our relationships and our sense of separation from one another. What does it take?
A little willingness!!
Welcome to a “journey without distance!”
Suggested General structure of meetings:
Gather ready to start on time, get restroom and refreshments taken care of.
Begin with sharing time to check in - briefly, how are you, what is happening
in your life.
Start the focus toward the study portion. Signify a beginning with a bell or candle.
Meditation— guided or not, music or not, to begin inner focusing on the work at
hand.
Read and discuss from the material. Share your thoughts with one another, not just
the moderator. You may wish to have a notebook or pencil to mark the book or
make notes.
Close with a short Workbook reading, and take a moment to dedicate your best
efforts to the week ahead.
Rules:
Non-judgment of self and others as we go through the personal growth process.
Confidentiality—all things discussed within this group are not discussed elsewhere.
Trusting each other with this allows for deeper personal exploration.
Each one is responsible for what one does or doesn’t get from the group or material.
Resources:
A Course in Miracles book, occasional other related publications, music, videos,
techniques that can make learning more deeply personal, and practical in everyday
life.
And our greatest resource is ourselves and our commitment and willingness to
grow with one another!
