ACIMblog bulletin for March 2013:
A conversation with Lyn Corona and Susan Dugan about our shared interest in, and application of, the teachings of Kenneth Wapnick
I recently recorded a video conversation with Susan Dugan and Lyn Corona about our shared interest in, and enthusiasm for the work of Dr. Kenneth Wapnick and the Foundation for A Course In Miracles (FACIM). We shared several examples of the teachings that we’ve found helpful over the years of studying this prolific and insightful treasure trove of work and the purity of the translations. Susan’s Forays In Forgiveness blog has a generous – and growing – archive of interviews (with Kenneth Wapnick and Gary Renard), audio and excellent weekly posts, each sharing her easy-to-relate-to – and often amusing – personal forgiveness lessons with corresponding generalized insights from the Inner Teacher of Kindness we all share. Lyn Corona, also deeply inspired by Kenneth Wapnick’s insight’s about ACIM, established the School of Reason, and also shares eloquent insights on her personal blog, Becoming Learners Together. All highly recommended – and it was great fun renovating these websites with such excellent content! (If you would like an assistance with an ACIM (or related) website, please contact me, since I very much enjoy making, updating and maintaining sites like these. :-)
New daily post updates option
I recently added a way to quickly and easily subscribe to automated post updates to the ACIMblog.com website. Just enter your email below where it says the “ACIMblog.com post updates by email” on the upper right hand corner of any page, and click the “Subscribe” button. You’ll automatically get an email containing any new posts to ACIMblog.com made the previous day. Of course, if you prefer just getting one email a month, the bulletin you’re reading now (if you’re reading this in your email program) will still continue to provide that service.

Doug Sparks “Rules For Decision” Workshop – Boulder, CO – 20Apr2013
Doug Sparks will present a “Rules For Decision” workshop in Boulder Colorado on April 20, 2013. In this one day workshop, participants will look searchingly at the very practical instructions from the first section of Chapter 30 in ACIM. This will be a “how to” class… “how to get your day off on the right foot (mind) and keep it there.” Details here…
Online ACIM study groups and presentations
There are several ongoing ACIM Hangout study groups and meetings; here’s a link to the ACIMExplained YouTube Channel (which has LOTS of wonderful videos) including regular interviews, presentations and online study group meetings. Enjoy, and join in if you feel inspired to share in the fun. Check back regularly on the calendar of upcoming online ACIM Hangouts for new events to participate ‘live’ in, and/or watch later. Here’s a how-to page with best practices for participating in these Google+ Hangouts.
Recent additions to ACIMblog Favorites
The ACIMblog Favorites (Amazon “aStore”) has new additions of ACIM-related books, videos, audios, Kindle and other media. I’ve recently added several new ACIM titles on the Amazon ACIMblog Favorites page and will keep adding more.
If there are books, videos, audios or Kindle selections you recommend, but don’t see here, please let me know what you find truly helpful so I can add them to the lists.
Recent reviews of The Geometry Code
Thanks to Susan Dugan, Mike Lemieux, and Marianne O’Sheeran for their recent, complimentary reviews of The Geometry Code: Universal Symbolic Mirrors of Natural Laws Within Us; Friendly Reminders of Inclusion to Forgive the Dreamer of Separation. Another fellow author, Jonathan Joshua, wrote the first review – Thanks, Jonathan! – in 2012. Huge thanks also to Gary Renard, Cindy-Lora Renard and Roberta Grace for adding The Geometry Code book (with a Foreward by Gary) to the “Gary recommends” book list on Gary’s website.
The Kindle version of the book became available September 2012. Many thanks to all who encouraged me to complete it, have purchased it and all your support … so very appreciated! :-) BTW, if you prefer a ‘treeware’ (paperback) version, you can order it here. Here are abundant details about the book – which really IS an ACIM-studies book, despite the prominent appearance of the word ‘geometry’ in the title.
BTW, even if you don’t have a Kindle, there are lots of other platforms you can read the Kindle version (or any Kindle book) on, including smartphones such as iPhone and iTouch, Android, Windows Phone 7, Blackberry, Windows and Macintosh computers, and tablets like iPad and Android tablet. Enjoy! :-)
