The Role of Teachers Series: “Let’s Discuss” Specialness as A Substitute for Love
Seminario web disponible en español: “Conversemos” sobre Un Curso de Milagros: El deseo de ser especial, sustituto del Amor
“The special love relationship is but a shabby substitute for what makes you whole in truth, not in illusion” (ACIM, T-16.IV.8:4).
In a world where differences and comparisons are inevitable, A Course in Miracles teaches there are no distinctions in perfect Oneness. This is Heaven, our true nature and the only Reality. However, learning to extend Love while navigating a world characterized by “specialness” can pose a unique challenge for Course students.
Join this latest addition to FIP’s “The Role of Teachers” series that explores this seemingly complex interplay between Love and specialness through the teachings of ACIM with professional Course teacher Keith Kavanagh and Course practitioners. Together, we explore:
- Understanding Specialness – Delve into the concept of “specialness” and gain clarity on how it differs from Love.
- Practical Application – Learn how to apply Course principles in your daily experiences when faced with differences.
- Holding the Line – Discover how Course teachers and students navigate the challenges of specialness, maintaining the Course’s essential principles in the face of worldly distractions.
Let’s discuss the intricacies, subtleties, and simplicity within the Course’s essential principle of forgiveness. Sometimes an experienced teacher can truly help!
“Love makes no comparisons” (ACIM, W-195.4:2).
