The Course is the result of the collaboration between two Columbia University psychologists: Dr. William T. Thetford and his colleague, Dr. Helen Schucman. In 1965, Helen experienced what she described as a Voice which spoke clearly in her mind, saying “This is a course in miracles. Please take notes.” With Thetford’s support and assistance in transcribing her shorthand notes, Dr. Schucman took down some 1,500 typewritten pages of A Course in Miracles over a period of seven years. The voice, which spoke through Helen, clearly identified himself as Jesus. The “original edition” is the unabridged volume of the Course as it was completed by Dr. Schucman and Dr. Thetford in 1972 and before further editing had taken place. WHAT IS COURSE IN MIRACLES SOCIETY? Course in Miracles Society [CIMS] is a 501 (c)(3) [non-profit] organization incorporated in 2000 which holds the copyright on A Course in Miracles Original Edition©. It is an international group of Course students and teachers organized to discover, authenticate, and propagate the Divine Teachings of A COURSE IN MIRACLES. As students, we seek to increase our knowledge of Jesus' words and to deepen our experience of His teaching. As teachers, we work to circulate the message of A COURSE IN MIRACLES throughout the world by our words, our deeds, and by the example of our lives. WHY ARE THERE PEARLS ON THE COVER? In the months preceding the beginning of the dictation of A Course in Miracles, Dr. Helen Schucman experienced a series of vivid waking and sleeping dreams. In three of those dreams, she was presented with a book. It was thick and black and had large gold letters on the cover. In one of those dreams, she saw it draped in a strand of pearls. That image is reproduced in the artwork for this edition in homage to Dr. Schucman’s perseverance and dedication to the completion of the Course. There is an ancient symbolism to pearls. From the earliest of times, pearls have been considered miraculous. Unique in all the world of nature, their beauty comes from the most mundane of substances and yet, it is somehow transformed by a living organism into one of the most beautiful objects known to man. And it is the way pearls “play” with light that gives them their fascinating beauty and their almost mythical status. Pearls have become, in other words, an archetypal image of what can happen to the human mind that dedicates itself to perfection, utilizing the hard knocks of daily living as a stimulus to growth. “The Pearl of Great Price”. That which is of such momentous value that you would sell all that you own to possess it. “Pearls of Wisdom” Thoughts which illuminate and simplify one’s thinking, bringing peace and clarity. “A String of Pearls” A veritable chain of wisdom and insights, spreading out and then interweaving as a string of brilliant flashes that lighten up the very dark world around us. A string of pearls is, in other words, the perfect symbol for ~”A Course in Miracles. ”FACEBOOK: TWITTER: ## ACIM Original Edition Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/8e/ba/70/8eba709d-3bdc-62f6-dda3-1d188420a83e/8.jpg/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/3d/7b/0d/3d7b0dd6-4c92-10aa-dff3-457833d777e2/5.jpg/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/1b/ae/ec/1baeec85-f9e1-9956-a28f-3b1178712d1a/4.jpg/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/4a/b2/e5/4ab2e544-b7ac-5d5a-74b9-efef89f20625/7.jpg/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/f8/89/f2/f889f2c6-0656-caf3-3513-88bdd9c99248/2.jpg/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 6](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/c8/f6/51/c8f651b4-100c-6585-f420-699820ee892d/3.jpg/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 7](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/ef/9b/70/ef9b70df-0077-c88e-7ee6-22965d7dd1cd/6.jpg/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 8](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/13/de/2b/13de2b63-db36-88ba-2fc9-e9294fa1c70c/1.jpg/1242x2688.png) ## ACIM Original Edition Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 25 (66%) - 4 stars: 3 (8%) - 3 stars: 3 (8%) - 2 stars: 1 (3%) - 1 stars: 6 (16%) ## ACIM Original Edition Reviews in United States ### ****- "Audio too slow and not adjustable" Love everything about the app except the audio. I can’t even bear to listen to it at the delay and speed. I use the reading feature on my iPhone but wish it was just in the app so I can adjust it. It’s waaaaaay too slow. And the music is nice but unnecessary I feel. Thank you all for what you do. 🙏 Please fix. 🙏 -- Zamoura Mayo, 2023-12-26 ### ***** "Best ACIM App" This is always my go to because I use the audio often and love the slower voice, light music and accessibility of the audio without having to use Siri! Thank you so much🙏🏻 Side note: I have seen the server down sometimes lately. Is this something that is a glitch or just a server issue? -- MD JG LP, 2023-10-07 ### **--- "Audio" The reader for the audio is a little slow and usually there are speeds for audio. Maybe it’s there and I can’t find it? Also, how do we cut the music out while he reads. I feel like I am missing something. Can’t imagine that there aren’t any choices. I can’t listen and hear words when music is in the background. I have a condition that i cannot listen to music. It’s an irritant to my brain. Please separate the music from the voice. Thank you. -- Doc287, 2023-03-01 ### ***** "UPDATED - Works Great Now!!!!! Audio only works for every other section" UPDATED POST: Audio now works….awesome!!! I just got through the entire text and will now move onto the lessons. I find this to be a great app to listen to while I am doing other simple things like driving or watering the garden. The music and pace of speech is perfect for me while I am doing other things. The calming music seems to put me into a place where I am more able to comprehend the true meaning of the course which I have found difficult to do by reading and studying the course. Overall, it feels like this app helps me to let go of all the craziness in this world and be more receptive to the amazing teachings in A Course In Miracles. This app is helping me realize all of God’s blessings are within us and it is merely our responsibility to let go and decide to truly trust God. God bless. ********************** ORIGINAL POST: I absolutely love this app and want to switch my rating to a 5. However, once I got to Chapter 9, the audio only works for every other section and this continues in Chapter 10 and perhaps beyond. I have an iPhone and restarted it a few times hoping the problem would go away. I am left to assume the recordings have been erased on the server? I waited several minutes for each blank recording to come on but nothing ever happened. Recordings that work only take a second or two to load. Overall, this is an awesome app and I love the relaxing music, calm voice, and pace of the recordings. I just wished all recordings worked as I am having a hard time understanding The Course given the missing sections. My understanding of The Course increased significantly listening to the recordings. I think the calmness somehow has a better way of channeling the message to me verses reading it myself or with others. Please do check if there is anything wrong on the server side with the recordings. Thank you and God bless. -- MikeS63825, 2022-12-03 ### ****- "Audio Speed" Hello. I just downloaded your App. It looks great, very complete with all three sections and audio. I appreciate all of your work! However, I find the audio speaker’s voice a bit slow for my ears and taste. And, some may find it a bit fast to follow. Most audio Apps have the ability to set the audio speed to various rates; 0.8, 1, 1.25, 1.5, etc. I think this App would be just perfect if you could add an audio speed button like most audio Apps to accommodate those of us whose ears and brains process words at a different rate than the speaker is reading! Is this possible? Could you please add this in the next update version? Thanks so much for your time! -- Susanmichelle, 2022-06-18 ### ***** "Workbook pages hard know how to open" Need to see the arrows on the far right of screen to open individual workbook sections. -- sokamura, 2021-06-08 ### ***-- "Can only play sections" I love the narrator’s voice and the peaceful music intros. I’d like to listen to this app with headphones while meditating. I would give 5 stars, but I find it annoying and disappointing that I can’t play it as long as I like... I can only play one section at a time. Then you have to manually forward and press play again to hear the next section. This doesn’t work for meditating or driving. I don’t understand why you can’t play the whole book without pause or interruption. -- Azmegan, 2020-08-05 ### ***** "ACIM is life changing. Ive been waiting for this app for 20 years" Traveling around the world, I cannot imagine being without this app on my iPhone and iPad. It is always easily with you, all texts offered in a well designed app. Most importantly, easy to access daily lessons every single day. A bonus for me is the ability to LISTEN to a professional voice artist reading the texts with a beautiful European tone. Feels very personalized as if Jesus is speaking directly to YOU. The subtle background music is inspired. I look forward to my time with ACIM every day. Give it a solid month, you will see a positive change in your perception and approach to this world or dreams we live in . . . and be at peace. Thank you for the effort put into this. -- JoeVogt, 2020-03-22 ### ***** "Priceless" This app is amazing, just the reminders make it essential to keep the lesson in the foreground, a big thank you to all involved in creating it! -- Mirrorbook, 2020-01-17 ### ****- "Audio not playing on Bluetooth headphone" This app is really great. All three books in one app. Thank you. However, the audio does not play on my Bluetooth device. It always redirected to the iPhone speaker. Are you experiencing the same issue ? -- lo22019, 2019-12-15 ### ***** "OMG! Perfect App!" "I highly recommend this App, not only because I know of the tremendous amount of work that went into the creation of this APP by CIMS in close collaboration with the Developers but also because no other APP offers so much in functionality: I can read the complete Course, take notes, bookmark my spot and also listen to the Daily Lesson. Plus, the reminder option lets me record anything I want in my own voice and schedule it as a reminder to do the Lesson. I love this App!!" -- CoyoteDreams, 2019-11-30 ### ***** "Need an urgent update ( dont work on ios 13)" Need an urgent update , work on ios 13 that was just sent to all iphones. Please update it :) -- JLWolfe, 2019-10-07 ### ***** "No Record found" What’s wrong? -- Coyote^..^Brown, 2019-09-05 ### ***** "ACIM OE" I made daily use (throughout the day) of the previous ACIM Original Edition app and LOVED it! I put it on my Apple Watch so I would frequently be reminded to do the lesson. It greatly improved my practice! I didn’t think it could be improved. But it HAS been! The new version has bookmarks and a collapsible table of contents. This makes finding the day’s lesson in moments! Collapsing time! 🤗 Thank you, Rev. Reja, for your high standards and tenacity, not taking “not sure if we can do that” for an answer! I am back in the saddle and very glad!!! 🤗💕🤗 -- Courselover, 2019-08-31 ### *---- "Incorrect description" Update 5/20/19 The books are not IN the app as stated in description. You may only use when on a data plan or using hotspot. My phone plan has no data and thus I cannot read this when I am without one. Description is thus incorrect. I will be asking for a refund for now and I hope to return when you have updated the app and fixed your description. :) Please update we would much appreciate it :) I am leaving a low score to remind the developers of this app that people still want to buy this book but we need some fixes and updates. The triangle for audiobook won’t work and play audio as promised. I just got this app so I will explore more, update, and enjoy the ride even if the audio never gets fixed. Although I would just love it if it was because my eyes may need a rest from reading my cellphone screen. Thanks :) much appreciate the time and effort you still had to make this app in the first place. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋 -- Mermaid_trix, 2019-05-20 ### *---- "Does not keep reading place" I have enjoyed the course in miracles Since 1981, in reading groups and in private. I gave this app 1 star due to not keeping the reading spot after closing the app. Is an update planned to fix this ? -- Ron sparks, 2019-02-04 ### *---- "Audio component ." Can’t find audio component as stated in the description. -- Gransbwa, 2018-10-23 ### ***-- "No bookmark capability" If there was any book in the world I would need a bookmark for, it would be ACIM. Having a book app like this without bookmark capability is.... unique. Also window for text is too small. Would like to maximize window to full screen for reading on phone. -- liskrik, 2018-07-18 ### *---- "Needs fixing" It does not stay on lesson or page. Please fix this. -- Lucky@52, 2018-04-30 ### ***** "Thank you!" I have this version of the book at home and I am so excited to see it as an app. It’s great to have all the books together at my fingertips. I also have the Urantia book app which is nicely put together with some additional features I find super helpful. One, is the option to have just text on the screen when reading. The other is to easily bookmark a page by tapping the top of the screen. Finally there is a random quote function which I use all the time whenever I just need a pick me up. Thanks again for everyone who put this together. Many blessings. -- therben, 2018-02-07 [View all ACIM Original Edition reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## ACIM Original Edition Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Free | Belgium | Books | #335 | ## ACIM Original Edition Discovered Keywords -
