FAQS
What is 8 Billion Mirrors?
8 Billion Mirrors is my personal blog where I explore and reflect upon the teachings of A Course in Miracles (ACIM). It's a space dedicated to spiritual growth, inner reflection, and documenting my journey through the 365-day ACIM workbook
What is A Course in Miracles (ACIM)?
ACIM is a self-study spiritual text that aims to help individuals transform their perception from fear to love. It consists of a Text, a Workbook for Students, and a Manual for Teachers, offering profound teachings on forgiveness, inner peace, and self-awareness.
Why did you start this blog?
I started 8 Billion Mirrors to commit to completing the ACIM workbook and to share my reflections and experiences along the way. After several attempts at the course, I felt that documenting my journey would help me stay accountable and connect with others on a similar path.
What can I expect to find on this blog?
You can expect daily reflections on each lesson from the ACIM workbook, insights into the teachings of ACIM, personal experiences related to the lessons, and reviews of complementary books on spirituality and self-growth.
Do I need prior knowledge of ACIM to follow your blog?
No prior knowledge is necessary. I aim to make each post accessible to newcomers while also offering depth for those already familiar with ACIM.
How often will you post new content?
I plan to post daily, corresponding with each lesson in the 365-day workbook. There may also be additional posts on related topics as inspiration strikes.
Can I join you on this journey through the workbook?
Absolutely! I encourage you to follow along with the lessons and share your thoughts and experiences. Together, we can support each other in this transformative process.
What if I miss a day or fall behind?
That's perfectly okay. The journey through ACIM is personal, and it's important to move at a pace that feels right for you. There's no need to feel guilty—simply pick up where you left off.
I am not affiliated with the Foundation for Inner Peace.
This is a personal blog where I share my reflections and thoughts as I systematically work through A Course in Miracles text and workbook.
As I grow, my views may change, and these reflections are simply a snapshot of my current understanding.
If you find them helpful, that's wonderful. If they don't resonate with you, I encourage you to explore your own thoughts and insights. Everyone's journey is unique.
