About the book:
A COURSE IN MIRACLES is intended to help you improve your thinking and brighten your life by learning to get in step with your true Self.

However, none of this happens overnight; it takes time, but it is the best possible use of your time. The purpose of this book is to clarify the content of the Course so you will have minimal difficulty in understanding what it is saying.

An index for A Course in Miracles CLARIFIED is also available.
Unfortunately, most beginning Course students have no idea that they have two invisible and contradicting inner teachers: The Holy Spirit, and the ego.
Most beginning students have never realized they were listening to either teacher; much less how to distinguish between these two teachers. Beginning students of the Course are so “upside down” in their thinking, that they haven’t a clue concerning what the Course is trying to get across to them. You can actually spend a lifetime trying to understand and apply the Course with little success, and I speak from experience! As its title indicates, A Course in Miracles CLARIFIED is a quick and easy guide to help you through the Course in less time and with less frustration than most Course students experience.
First and foremost, A Course in Miracles shows us how to think for ourselves and how to take control of our lives. Now we have to ask, “Who wouldn’t want this for us?” Our ego. That’s who. Your ego will tell us that the Course is too difficult to understand and apply. On the other hand, the Holy Spirit will encourage you to read and understand the Course’s Text and will help you to successfully apply the 365 daily lessons.
In spite of the fact that the Course identifies all of us as potential teachers of the Course, and 92 Course pages are dedicated to the “Manual for Teachers;” there are those who believe Course students should not engage an outside teacher, but should only rely on their “Inner Teacher” to explain the Course to them. The thousand-plus books that have been written about the Course and hundreds (possibly thousands) of Course teachers testify to the fact that outside help (books and teachers) is absolutely necessary.
