A. In a Parable, of course! Perhaps millions of ACIM students have given up on The Course, finding it too difficult and frustrating to fathom. Most long-time ACIM students, myself included, have found themselves at a loss for words when attempting to relate The Course’s message to newer students or the curious inquirer. In letting go the wish to be the one to come up with the answer, it came to me. I asked simply how Jesus would explain his Course, and The Parable of the Stars began to take form. I laughed, thinking to myself “How else would Jesus tell the story?” The gift of this parable has changed my own life, and those of readers who find its clarity invaluable in making their way through The Course. Long-time students report its simplicity helpful in avoiding ego-relapses, and call it their “go-to book” to share with their loved ones who may be questioning their sanity. $11.50 + $3.50, S & H. The accompanying The Parable of the Stars CD, narrated by Lainie Beavin, songs by John Beavin, and sound effects by Tom Sciro: $10.50 + $3.50, S & H or book and CD: $19.95 + $3.50, S & H. The original music in John Beavin’s CD, God Is the Light in Which I See complements The Parable of the Stars with songs such as The Forgotten Song. Course students will recognize the title song as the title of Lesson 44 from the Workbook. Once understood, the “Light” which God really is becomes non-threatening to everyone, religious, agnostic or atheist. The album is also fun and funny, in keeping with the ACIM teaching that all true healing lies in our “remembering to laugh at the tiny mad idea” (of separation from The Light, and thus, from each other.) $14.95+ $3.50, S & H. Treat yourself to all three-The Parable of the Stars book and CD, plus the God Is the Light in Which I See for just $29.95 + $3.50 S & H—a savings of $7.45.
