A Course in Miracles as an Accelerated Path to Healing



Enjoy this excerpt from the renowned A Course in Miracles teacher, David Hoffmeister. David is known for his uncompromising, yet gentle and humorous dialogue, that can lead to accelerated healing.

As a young person, I never had a thought of being a miracle worker and I would say most people that get into A Course in Miracles when asked as a child, what do you want to be when you grow up? Do not say,  Oh I want to be a miracle worker!  I do not think I have met one A Course in Miracles student yet who knew this as a young child.  It is very, very rare. Yet when we open up to it and we open up to being used by the Holy Spirit, then we open ourselves more and more to being available to be used by Him. Then it is like a quickening that occurs. You get more into an accelerated path of the healing.  And open to accepting that healing that has already happened.
When we make no exceptions and work consistently with A Course in Miracles, then we begin to see the miracle is always available for us.  We learn to choose the miracle consistently  and then our perception lightens up, really lightens up and gets very bright and then finally disappears. And you get to see how deep this goes. But we have to get all the way back to releasing everything about linear time and all aspects of linear time to awaken from the dream. So it is not about a personal healing or even about our personal life going smoothly.  
There is even a part in the Teachers manual in A Course in Miracles where Jesus talks about three levels of teaching and the third one is a lifelong teaching/learning partnership. He says "they may be hostile to each other perhaps for life," which guns down any sense of soul mate thing. Oh that is great I have a lifelong learning partner that is going to help me forgive the ego and they may be hostile, perhaps for life.  Oh thank you very much Jesus, that is very enticing.  I can't wait to get into my lifelong hostile teaching/learning relationship. What it is though is the ego is deep and if he is giving a metaphor of a lifelong partnership, he says and should they decide to learn, it is the perfect lesson for them and can be learned. It is very optimistic and hopeful but he is not trying to paint it like the soulmate sites do. He is saying this could be intense and perhaps for life and that is how deep the ego runs.  And I think certainly Bill and Helen, the scribe and the collaborator of A Course in Miracles; nobody could say  that they had an easy ride of it.  It was very very disjunctive. Particularly for Helen but I think for Bill too.
