The principles of miracles as presented in a course in miracles are foundational guidelines that define what miracles are.
These principles explain how miracles function and their purpose.
According to these principles,
Miracles are expressions of love that result from shifts in perception from fear to love.
Miracles are gifts of transformed vision from the Holy Spirit.
Studying these principles retrains our mind to recognize truth,
Dissolving feelings of separation or guilt,
Ultimately opening our awareness to inner peace,
Self-knowledge,
And genuine happiness.
The 10th principle from a course in miracles states that the use of miracles as spectacles to induce belief is a misunderstanding of their purpose.
Principle 10 clarifies that miracles are not to be public demonstrations,
Not to be used to persuade others through dramatic displays.
Yeah.
The true function of miracles is quiet,
Internal healing,
And the correction of perception.
A miracle's purpose lies not in outward spectacle,
But in fostering love and healing within both the giver and the receiver miracles emphasize the shared spiritual equality of all of us.
The core value of miracles is their ability to heal,
Not to convince or convert others to miracles through showmanship.
Prepare for meditation.
Internalize your awareness.
Close your eyes.
Draw your senses inward,
Away from external distractions.
Take a few deep breaths and relax.
Remove all expression from your face.
As thoughts or sensations arise,
Simply acknowledge them,
Let them pass,
Returning your attention to your breath.
Take a deep,
Calming breath as your body relaxes further.
You are now standing in a limitless open space.
There are no boundaries,
Only the subtle vibration of spacious light all around.
And you are at the heart of pure potential where nothing needs to be defined and every part of you is fully accepted.
Your feet touch lightly this luminous ground,
Yet you sense no weight,
Just soft support.
The air embraces you with a quiet presence.
Take a few moments to notice any tension in your body or any expectations in your mind.
Relax as consciousness expands into infinite space.
Shapes and scenes begin to emerge before you.
Faces and situations.
Perhaps moments when you wanted your actions to be noticed,
When you hoped your light would be affirmed by others.
As these moments arise,
You become aware of any impulse to defend to justify or to impress simply observe that each image,
No matter how vivid is only light transparent and substantial.
Watch as these scenes fade away,
Leaving no trace on the infinite openness of awareness.
Now direct your attention inward to your heart center where a radiant point of warmth glows quietly and gently untouched by all that appears around you by any event that seems to arise beyond your stillness.
Your heart center glows with quiet steadiness filled with luminous light of inner clarity.
This light is not flashy.
It does not seek attention.
It is strong,
Quietly,
Powerful,
Deeply calm.
This light exists solely for its own being complete and untouched in its existence.
The miracle manifests as this pure inward radiance as ways of peace spreading out from your heart center,
Dissolving any inner pressure to show or to prove your worth.
Miracles are not summoned to be witnessed.
They are experienced as a subtle transition from effort into ease.
You are now deeply aware.
This is the natural movement of miracles,
Subtle,
Restorative,
Quietly real miracles need no observer,
No demonstration.
Notice how choosing to abide in this light rather than searching for approval sends quiet waves of compassion outward,
Touching the world more deeply than words or displays ever good settled into the quiet dignity and steady power of a miracle valued for no other reason than it's being say to yourself,
Say in your mind,
My presence offers peace.
My being radiates healing.
My presence offers peace radiates healing.
As we prepare to return to our regular state of thoughts,
Feelings,
And actions at time and space,
We bring this peaceful inner awareness with us with the knowledge that miracles remain the silent power within us requiring nothing more than our acceptance.
I am a vessel of peace through my being healing unfolds.
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.
