Taking IT in Lightly

Ron Alexander Jon, Like your title LIVING A COURSE IN MIRACLES and your sense of humor - lightness - here is my answer to friend who felt bored at ACIM group and wondered "if she should feel guilty about it"?
Ron Alexander: I used to teach ACIM - a lot of wisdom yet lots of dualism too especially they way it demonizes the body and the "ego" - usually after the week of stating "I am not a body" - there would not be many bodies left in class lol - be careful of the ACIM fundamentalists too - they take the fun out of the mental!
I went through the lessons every day for two years and studied with the "scribe" Dr. Bill Thetford - he asked for it and Helen delivered but never believed in it - so Dr. Bill recorded and wrote what she channeled. Dr. Bill Got it - and lived it! He would sit in bliss just outside the study group, and everytime we would question a concept, he would laugh and tell us to "just tear out those pages" - in other words, the "concepts" were not the Experience which is LOVE IS THE ESSENCE OF YOUR BEING! Dr. Thetford had more peace and bliss and FREEDOM than anyone I have met - and he left his body the next year after telling a friend, "I have never felt so free!"
Welcome your frank feedback Jon Mundy!
