125: A Course in Miracles and Nonduality: Are They the Same?

A Course in Miracles is frequently described as a “nondual” path. It’s true that both the Course and nonduality teach that everything is ultimately one and separation is an illusion. However, there are significant differences as well, and those differences amount to contrasting worldviews. In this episode, Robert and Emily present a general overview the distinctions between nondual teachings and A Course in Miracles. Topics covered include fundamental differences related to “self vs. no self”, the nature of God, the idea of whether A Course in Miracles uses dualistic language to lead us to a nondual truth, what the Course specifically says about personhood, relationship to others, free will, and more. If you’ve assumed A Course in Miracles is a nondual path – or if you want to know more about how it differs from nonduality – this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
