With this “iCourse” we share a Pathway as “Life-navigation“for personal use and development. Following an extensive introduction here, it is the aim to propose an Alternative Psychotherapy for our daily needs now. And it is therefore inevitable that in some instances quite sensitive if not painful issues are gently touched to evoke the awareness for the addressing of the eventual origin of problems.
Many of us have ourselves experienced daily life becoming disappointing, dis-encouraging and dreadful in the end, or even extremely painful and tragic.
This “iCourse” is therefore meant for those who have at last discovered and concluded, that our life is in fact something like a dream, very like to a nightmare so vivid and seeming real, that we think and feel that we cannot anymore afford ourselves to disbelieve this, as our dreaming the world.
This proposal for an applied Alternative Psychotherapy is herewith shared with the Students and Teachers all over the world of what is known as “A Course in Miracles”. It is well known that the first three Grand-Teachers of the Course in Miracles were themselves professional Medical Psychotherapists.
On the other hand, it is of importance to acknowledge that this kind of “Life-navigation” will be useful for everyone who also appreciates and practices Spiritual Teachings , such as the Teachings of The Supreme Great Spirit (i.e. God) from the libraries of the Gospels, of the Church of the West and the ancient Church of the East in China and Persia, concerning the Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, Yeshua bar N’zareth, who at the dramatic summit of his mission revealed in the end The Christ. The word ‘Christ’ means ‘anointed One’ ( see: 2) : The Gospel of The Beloved Companion, @ 32:4). It is therefore not a name but a supreme blessing .
This re-training of the mind , endeavouring a consistent change of mind, is based on the fundamentals of the original Evangelic Faith i.e. faith in the Good Message ( ‘euangelium’, ‘euaggelion’) of the authentic and non-canonical New Testament.
Most importantly we discover these fundamentals also in the contemporary sources of our time, of which the content of “A Course in Miracles – Urtext Manuscripts – Complete Seven Volume Combined Edition 2008′′ is a good example.

SOME EXAMPLES :
==========================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1)
A Silk Road Gospel : The Secret Sayings of Ye Su – originating from the Gospel of Jing Jiao, the “Religion of Light” as it was as such acknowledged and accepted by the Tang Emperor DeZong , at the beginning of the ancient Medieval Church of China, 635 AD.
No 11. Mary said “I love You Ye Su”. Ye Su said, “that is a good start., the Kingdom is born from Love.”
No 63. Ye Su asked Mary, “What shall you do when I return from the dead?” Mary said,”If you were to return from the dead, I would observe awe-struck silence and speak to no one about it. Ye Su said, “You have learned well Mary. You shall be My Apostle.“
“The Secret Sayings of Ye Su”, which was brought to surface by Mr.Wang and Mr.Chang in 1996 and superbly translated by Jay G. Williams in 2004, is now available from bookstores and the web.
And with the silent courtesy of the Gentlemen Wang, Chang and Williams the text of these sayings is added to the MENU located at the top (right) of this page, for eventual further reading.

2)
The Gospel of The Beloved Companion – the Complete Gospel of Miryam the Migdalah ( i.e. the Tower ).
The basic text is written in capitals only, so that is respected here.
32:2 THEN MIRYAM, THE BELOVED COMPANION,TOOK A JAR OF OIL OF PURE AND EXPENSIVE SPIKENARD AND POURED IT UPON THE HEAD OFYESHUA AND ANOINTED HIM. AND THE HOUSE WAS FULL OF THE SWEET FRAGRANCE OF THE OINTMENT.
32:3 AND SEEING WHAT SHE HAD DONE, THE DISCIPLES THERE-FORE GRUMBLED AGAINST HER AMONGST THEMSELVES.
32:4 BUT HEARING THIS, YESHUA SAID TO THEM, “LEAVE HER BE SHE HAS ANOINTED ME FOR WHAT I AM COME TO DO, AND DONE WHAT SHE IS APPOINTED TO DO.
ONLY FROM THE TRUTH I TELL YOU, WHENEVER THEY SPEAK OF ME, WHAT SHE HAS DONE WILL ALSO BE TOLD IN MEMORY OF HER.
YOU DO NOT KNOW OR UNDERSTAND WHAT SHE HAS DONE. I TELL YOU THIS:
WHEN ALL HAVE ABANDONED ME, ONLY SHE SHALL STAND BESIDE ME LIKE A TOWER. A TOWER BUILT ON A HIGH HILL AND FORTIFIED CANNOT FALL, NOR CAN IT BE HIDDEN.
FROM THIS DAY FORTH, SHE SHALL BE KNOWN AS MIGDALAH, FOR SHE SHALL BE AS A TOWER TO MY FLOCK, AND THE TIME WILL SOON COME WHEN HER TOWER SHALL STAND ALONE BY MINE.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
39:5 WHEN YESHUA THEREFORE HAD RECEIVED THE VINEGAR, HE SAID,
“IT IS FINISHED.”
AND HE BOWED HIS HEAD, AND ONE OF THE SOLDIERS, HEARING THIS, PIERCED HIS SIDE WITH A SPEAR, AND IMMEDIATELY BLOOD AND WATER CAME OUT.

We finally arrive into the contents of “A Course in Miracles – Urtext Manuscripts – Complete Seven Volume Combined Edition 2008′′ . Here are indeed concrete answers given to us for today.
“Urtext” stands for the original and authentic wording of what “a course in Miracles“, for the two trans-scribes Helen Schucman and William Thetford ( both professors in Medical Psychology at the Columbia University, New York) became. It was indeed a joined trans-scribal mission in almost daily sessions, which lasted for seven consecutive years, from 1965 towards 1972.
And it seems that it was understood, accepted and lived by, by just one of the two trans-scribes of this Manuscript. For indeed it is a free to choose curriculum for the individual, powered by our ‘little willingness” to join in the process to a profound understanding and acceptance of his or her origin and identity.
It is absolutely NOT about groups, religions, churches or movements.
It is concerning me and You! It is in our day-to-day silent and personal research for the “de-coding” of this source, through which it’s Origin inspires us to develop a truly Happier and Peaceful life.
Amongst many others did this decision to choose, occur for example to Hendrik Th. Lilipaly (see www.cross-of-christ.com), William Thetford and, a very long time ago, also to Mary Magdalene ( i.e. Miryam the Migdalah). And in so doing they found and accepted their identity, their Salvation and also their origin in the Supreme Great Spirit, Who is called “God“. He is in constant communion with ALL of us in the Spirit of CHRIST.
And to our astonishment, the newly resurfaced “The Secret Sayings of Ye Su”, which is a GOSPEL from the Jing Jiao, the “Religion of Light” ( as it was officially accepted by Emperor TaiZong in 635 AD), preceded , regarding its profound contents, the “Course in Miracles” which was completed in 1972 .
Saying No 32 clarifies this as follows: “The Kingdom is Agape made manifest among us. It is one great MIRACLE. If you know Agape, the Kingdom comes.”
And not only that, but the “The Secret Sayings of Ye Su”, reveals the depth of Faith of Mary Magdalene, and clearly reinstates her appointed role (in Saying no. 63) as the first Apostle, i.e. the ” Apostola apostolorum” in the very first beginnings of the Christian movement.
She was chosen by Yeshua (i.e. “Jesus” ) Himself , Who named her, in the aforementioned Gospel of The Beloved Companion as
“the Migdalah” (i.e.”Tower to My flock”, 32:4).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What does “iCourse” stand for ?
“iCourse” means internet-based Curriculum, here becoming freely available for everyone.
And we open-mindedly and consciously share the Platform of choices where You can follow the links to some seven various thought-traditions i.e.:
- The Gospel of The Beloved Companion – the Complete Gospel of Miryam the Migdalah,
- The Gospel of Mary of Magdala,
- A Silk Road Gospel : The Secret Sayings of Ye Su,
- The Gospel of Luke,
- The Gospel of John,
- Message to East-Asia – www.Cross-of-Christ.com
- A Course in Miracles – URTEXT Manuscripts,
And thus our dedication to Spiritual Mental Care brings us to the following tasks: Information and Mind-training.
And in this case is the practical Mind-Training in A Course in Miracles a very relevant CHOICE, sine it is given to us through two thoughtful people of this time for the solution of our strictly personal and general issues with OUR life-time and “modern” world now.

This vast library, which extends to 7 volumes, in the printed version as a book ( Syllabus! ) , contains the Coded Information for a practical Personal mind training for the attainment of a Peaceful and Happy mind for everyone, NOW.

This is based on the Accomplished Forgiveness–Mission of Christ, above the Cross, which we can NOW realise within ourselves through HIS Power of TRUE Forgiveness.
AND … we all possess the Inheritance and therefore our claim on it, during our lifelong process of Mind-Change, eventually aided by the aforementioned 7 Spiritual Sources given us for this moment and time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BUT ….. WHY a “crash-course” ?
In times of a world-wide crisis as of today, I could witness in my Medical profession the many crash-courses during the first “lock-downs” which were needed for the acquisition of new personnel for the coping with the emergency situations at the Intensive Care Units. A huge and growing number of Corona-virus stricken people, being seriously diseased or perhaps already in a pre-mortal state, is badly needing their newly acquired skills and care.
And it is through this vision of the world today, that “A Crash Course in Miracles” emerges, with the purpose to join in the CARE and RELIEF of the MIND-based issues of our personal life, of suffering and of death
This awareness is becoming seriously relevant in this ongoing pandemic crisis.
It is also dedicated to those who deliberately partake in the actual wars in Eastern Europe and in the rest of our world, with the endeavour to stand for and defend the Freedom and Dignity of Man.
The vast URTEXT library containing the 7 volumes, represents an almost unsurmountable body of information, and is the consistent foundation of this first urgent Crash Course, in seven practical stages.
Remote from any pretension, we gladly invite you to join in the reading and the exercises with us.
You can do these 7 Stages at the beginning of the 7 week-days. And while You eventually repeat this ‘cycle of 7’ in the following times, You can attain the depth and strength in Your spiritual growth to learn to decode all this and the authentic texts , for the practical application to the benefit of Your mental , psychological ànd physical welfare. ( here is a Medical Doctor spreaking too …)
