The Miracle of Trust: Overcoming the One Obstacle to Love's Infinite Presence

Reader Reviews
Quite an amazing treatise on another way of looking at things; actually, it's a way of not looking at things and disassociating from beliefs and judgments. They distinguish the ego from the real Self (which they call the Unified Self). The six stages of Trust, they say, directly correlates with the six stages of releasing the ego, which is what is distinguished in "Take Me To Truth" (an amazing, 5-star work also). One thing they say which I find really helpful to remember in distinguishing the ego from The ("my"?!!) Unified Self is that whenever I'm experiencing anger, fear, pain, etc. (as opposed to Peace & Joy), then I can simply know that I'm in ego. This helps me to be able to at least know when I'm in ego, even if I find it near impossible to extricate myself in the moment ("all the world is a stage..."). They speak highly of Byron Katie's Work, which is great at teaching self-awareness through the psychological (and meta-physical) principle of projection (other people being a reflection of your projection). Through Katie's simple 4-step questioning process, one can realize that everything the ego (not Katie's terminology per se, as she ultimately has no terminology or beliefs) believes is not true and therefore, as Nouk and Tomas teach, everything can be forgiven because of complete self-responsibility in creating one's experience (and, as such, nothing really happened anyway). One thing that has drawn me to ACIM through Gary Renard's and Nouk/Tomas' works is that it is non-dualistic. God, it seems, being Absolute, can really only be approximated (!) in describing through non-dualism; dualism is of this earth and the ego). I very much appreciate what Nouk and Tomas have gone through to be able to put out such great work and I thank them for doing so.
