THE MANUAL FOR TEACHERS
A SUMMARY
“God turns to you for help to save the world. Teacher of God, His thanks He offers you, and all the world stands silent in the grace You bring from Him.”
“And this is the function of God’s teachers; to see no will as separate from their own, nor theirs as separate from God’s.”
“³God’s teachers have the goal of wakening the minds of those asleep and seeing there the vision of Christ’s face to take the place of what they dream.”
⁵The sole responsibility of God’s teacher is to accept the Atonement for himself. ⁶Atonement means correction, or the undoing of errors. ⁷When this has been accomplished, the teacher of God becomes a miracle worker by definition”

AMEN
“Whenever you are in doubt what you should do (and be very honest with yourself, are you aware of all the possible outcomes that making such a decision could have?), think of His Presence in you, and tell yourself this, and only this:
He leadeth me and knows the way, which I know not
Yet He will never keep from me what He would have me learn,
And so, I trust Him to communicate to me all that He knows for me.”
At one point in my life, I had to take a decision: either this God thing is a myth, and only science is true, and from this point on, I shall be an atheist. Or I assume that God is true, and I shall devote considerable time reading, studying, and practicing, not the dogma of the organized religions, but the most logical and spiritually inspiring revelations I can find. This led me to focusing on the teachings and principles of Vedanta and A Course in Miracles. I concluded that by studying and practicing the principles of these sources if I became more unconditionally loving, more peaceful, more joyful, then I have chosen wisely. So be it.
Love & Peace,
Brother Vin
