Welcome to the website for School for A Course in Miracles, a school dedicated to helping students understand and apply the teachings of A Course in Miracles.
Changing the way in which we see is the aim of A Course in Miracles. Most of humanity does not yet believe there is another way to look at the world that brings peace. Peace is an internal affair that has nothing to do with external circumstances. Only by transforming the one looking is that change possible.
A student must first decide if he or she wants to become a learner in this way—a way that offers no particular gains to the personal self. Peace of mind is an effect of the transcendence of the personal by shifting from self interests to shared interests.
If you feel called to make this kind of change you won’t be able to stop your Self from following that call. It is as if an internal alarm clock has gone off and it’s time to wake up. Often it goes off when you become disillusioned with your own ability to find lasting happiness.
“The invitation”, that calling to venture beyond a self-centered point of view, goes on all the time. You choose when you are ready to hear it. “Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you can elect what to take at a given time.”
The curriculum is the miracle. “It is a required course”. What is meant by required is that everyone must eventually turn within to learn how to change their mind.
The Course undoes the blocks to the awareness of love’s presence. The Lessons, all three-hundred and sixty five, do the work in a realm that you may not even be aware of, a non-place the Course calls the mind. You learn how not to interfere with, or block, your awareness of your true self.
In 2007, a small enthusiastic group of teachers/learners of the Course joined together to start a school for serious students who wanted to accelerate their learning. As a group, we had collectively logged well over 100 years of devotion to the practice of forgiveness. At that time we called ourselves the School of Reason. The name was later changed to School for A Course in Miracles.
As the Director of the School, I would like to share a word about the faculty. Each of the teachers has pursued their calling vigilantly, sometimes for more than forty years. They have direct experience of the miracle that the required course promises so they can’t be fooled by the substitutes the personal self likes to claim. They know what it takes to sincerely practice forgiveness and to receive the benefits of peace. They know how to help you make the best use of time.
If you are undecided about your spiritual goal and whether the SFACIM might help you attain it, you may find it valuable to attend a regularly scheduled Introduction to A Course in Miracles sponsored by the School. You will find these events and classes posted on our website.
We are here only to be truly helpful.
Sincerely and with love,
Lyn Corona
