The Treatises of A Course of Love: 2 - Tapa blanda

The discipline required in "A Course of Love" is the discipline to be who we are. No matter how much is learned, if that learning remains in our heads, it is not enough. Unless learning touches our hearts, it’s never going to bring us the wisdom we seek, the peace we desire, or the intimacy and connection for which we yearn. A new and more receptive way of knowing is needed, and is found in this course for the heart. "The Treatises of A Course of Love" is the second volume of the three-book Course of Love series. A Treatise on the Art of Thought “Through mindfulness you will remember who you are. Through wholeheartedness you will be who you are.” A Treatise on the Nature of Unity and Its Recognition “Those who seek an explanation before following a calling, who look for reasons of a practical nature, who would seek guarantees of the rightness and outcome of following such a call, seek for proof they have already been given. The call itself is proof. It is proof of the heart’s ability to be heard; of the heart’s ability to recognize the unseen and to imagine the existence of that which will reveal its true nature and its joy.” A Treatise on the Personal Self “You stand at the beginning, with a Self now devoid of the meaninglessness you attempted to assign to it. You stand empty of untruth and about to embark on the journey of truth. You stand in the transformational moment between the unreal and the real. All you await is an idea, a remembrance of the original idea about your personal self.” A Treatise on the New “True learning has had only one purpose...the purpose of returning you to awareness of your true identity. Be done with learning now as you accept who you truly are.”

Mari Perron had a series of spiritual experience that culminated in 1998 when she was asked by an inner voice to record a “new course in miracles.” Three years and three books later A Course of Love was complete. The books of the series are: A Course of Love The Treatises of A Course of Love, and The Dialogues of A Course of Love Mari lives on the edge of the freeway in West St. Paul, Minnesota with her husband, daughter, grandson, two cats, two birds and one dog, (a perfect recipe for getting daily practice in cultivating stillness and coming from the heart!). She is the author of two books of The Grace Trilogy, of "The Given Self," and is winner of the University of Minnesota's Jean Keller-Bouvier Award for literary accomplishment.
