Law of One Study Guide V.2

[SuperManny]

What's the story behind the ACIM quotes? As a former student of ACIM, I totally understand the appeal of the LOO to somebody familiar with the kind of rhetoric and thinking featured in the Course. But... shouldn't the Law of One be able to stand up on its own - especially in a reference work? I'll keep this concern in mind as I review V2; thanks for posting it.

I absolutely agree that either path is quite able to stand on its own. I'd say the primary reason Bob included the ACIM references, is that almost all his students were also students of ACIM, and in fact some of them were quite new to the Law of One material.

As I noted in the introduction, this guide was put together for a Law of One study group. These groups were usually quite small, because Bob was teaching out of his home and didn't have room for a large group. Typically we'd start out with around 20-some people and finish the class with less than half that number. He'd simply announce the start of a class at his Sunday talk at the Oasis Institute, which is completely based on ACIM, [hence the reason fot those references.]

Another reason is that Bob was writing his book "A Practical Guide to ACIM" at the same time he was teaching the last class, and I'm sure the ACIM teaching was on his mind at the time.

Would their be any interest in putting this in a wiki format so that the group could collaboratively put together a better (there's always room for improvement) study guide on an ongoing basis?

I think this is a great idea, especially if you could get some serious Law of One students involved. As comprehensive as these study guides are there are still some subjects that were not touched on. For instance Bob didn't have the luxury of using the online sites that Tobey Wheelock was so kind to put up, making the study and research of the LOO immensely more accessable.

For this project, I think perhaps the original guide would be better suited, or maybe some combination of the two. For instance it wouldn't be relevant to include ACIM quotes, etc. Just my 2¢...
