ACIM and miscreation. There must be a better way.



The world has not yet experienced any comprehensive reawakening or rebirth. Such a rebirth is impossible as long as you continue to project or miscreate.
ACiM - Text Chapter Two - The Separation and the Atonement - Section 1 - The Origins of Separation
The mind can miscreate only when it believes it is not free. ACiM Text - Chapter Three - The Innocent Perception - Miracles as True Perception
When the will is really free it cannot miscreate, because it recognizes only truth. ACiM - Text Chapter Two - The Separation and the Atonement - Section 2 - The Atonement as Defense
The acceptance of the Atonement by everyone is only a matter of time. This may appear to contradict free will because of the inevitability of the final decision, but this is not so. You can temporize and you are capable of enormous procrastination, but you cannot depart entirely from your creator, who set the limits on your ability to miscreate. ACiM - Text Chapter Two - The Separation and the Atonement - Section 3 - The Altar of God
Physical illness represents a belief in magic. The whole distortion that made magic rests on the belief that there is a creative ability in matter which the mind cannot control. This error can take two forms; it can be believed that the mind can miscreate in the body, or that the body can miscreate in the mind. When it is understood that the mind, the only level of creation, cannot create beyond itself, neither type of confusion need occur. ACiM - Text Chapter Two - The Separation and the Atonement - Section 4 - Healing as Release from Fear

Whenever you are afraid, it is a sure sign that you have allowed your mind to miscreate and have not allowed me to guide it. ACiM - Text Chapter Two - The Separation and the Atonement - Section 7 - Fear and Conflict
The fearful must miscreate, because they misperceive creation. When you miscreate you are in pain. ACiM - Text Chapter Two - The Separation and the Atonement - Section 8 - Cause and Effect
 In 1965, Dr Helen Schucman was a research psychologist at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center in New York City. Her workplace was not different to millions of others in that politics and status-seeking among staff had created a strained atmosphere. One day, the head of her department, Dr William Thetford, announced he was tired of what was going on, and that there must be another, better way. Schucman agreed to help him find it, and soon after began having strange dreams, then hearing a voice which seemed to want her to write down what it was saying. The first sentence she recorded in her shorthand notebook was "This is a course in miracles."
Eventually everyone begins to recognize, however dimly, that there must be a better way. ACiM - Text Chapter Two - The Separation and the Atonement - Section 3 - The Altar of God
