Thoughts on Healing
This is an ad-libbed video.
I was talking about healing as discussed in Psychotherapy, Purpose, Principles, and Practice. This is a supplement to A Course in Miracles. You may not have ever read it. I know I didn’t get around to reading it until last year. That was when someone asked me to do so with them. I was surprised to discover that it is really an amazing read. I have facilitated three groups through a Pathways of Light course based on the supplement, which only enriches the experience. I’m not very good at just talking about the Course without anyone prompting me with questions. So, it is not smooth, but it is helpful nonetheless. Or so I have been told.
Here are a couple of the passages I read from.
Healing is holy. ²Nothing in the world is holier than helping one who asks for help. ³And two come very close to God in this attempt, however limited, however lacking in sincerity. ⁴Where two have joined for healing, God is there. ⁵And He has guaranteed that He will hear and answer them in truth. ⁶They can be sure that healing is a process He directs, because it is according to His Will. (ACIM, P-2.V.4:1-6)
Sickness takes many forms, and so does unforgiveness. ²The forms of one but reproduce the forms of the other, for they are the same illusion. ³So closely is one translated into the other, that a careful study of the form a sickness takes will point quite clearly to the form of unforgiveness that it represents. ⁴Yet seeing this will not effect a cure. ⁵That is achieved by only one recognition; that only forgiveness heals an unforgiveness, and only an unforgiveness can possibly give rise to sickness of any kind. (ACIM, P-2.VI.5:1-5)
