Welcome

Welcome to The Unlearning School. The site is about working with A Course in Miracles: for more about the Course and further links, see below.
A Course in Miracles
is a complete course of learning for any individual to study in private for their own relief and enlightenment.
The purpose of the commentaries here is to clarify my own thoughts about the Course and to invite further consideration of this profound and beautiful work.
Some of the ideas ... you will find hard to believe, and others may seem to be quite startling. This does not matter ...You are asked only to use them. It is their use that will give them meaning to you, and will show you that they are true.
Remember only this; you need not believe the ideas, you need not accept them, and you need not even welcome them. Some of them you may actively resist. None of this will matter, or decrease their efficacy. But do not allow yourself to make exceptions in applying the ideas the workbook contains, and whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, use them. Nothing more than that is required.

Soul Mates? Forgive the One You Love

In some ways all the workshops in the present series have been leading up to the theme of the next two: the special relationship. The Course distinguishes between the ‘special love relationship’ and the ‘special hate relationship’, and these are the topics of the next two workshops. On Saturday 11th February the theme of Workshop 6 will be Soul Mates: Forgive the One You Love.

There can’t be many workshop topics that include both sex and Jesus. But don’t get too excited (or worried) – we will also look at loneliness, snoring, a few of your favourite things, and the intricate dance from intimacy to…extimacy. The workshop is about the immense attraction (and pain) of the special love relationship, and its potential to become what the Course calls the ‘holy’ relationship. We can learn to loose the ties that bind and enter the ‘ark of peace’ two by two: that is, you and the Other. You and every other.

All workshops in the present Forgive Your Life for Not Being What You Meant take place on the second Saturday in every month in Andover, Hampshire SP10 3RQ. Numbers are few as space is limited, so advance booking only. Cost: £15. For enquiries, bookings and directions contact anna@unlearningschool.com or phone 01264 395579.
