This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the time
you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can
establish the curriculum. It means only that you may elect what you
want to take at a given time. The course does not aim at teaching the
meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim,
however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love’s Presence,
Which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but
what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.

This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:

Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the Peace of God.
