Product Description
New York Times Bestseller As Seen on Oprah A Return to Love is Marianne Williamson's moving and joyous account of the life-changing principles of A Course in Miracles, the revolutionary self-study program of spiritual psychotherapy that is sweeping the world. According to the Course, a miracle is a shift in perception from fear to love. In A Return to Love, Williamson discusses the principles and practice of miracles, the releasing of fear which blocks our awareness of love, and the forgiveness of ourselves and others which sets us free.
Mariane Williamson reads on two cassettes.

The Importance of Love August 18, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book talks about the importance of love and forgiveness, using "A Course in Miracles" as a basis for its explanations.
The message in this book seems good. In a perfect world, there would be all love and forgiveness to all mankind, and then everything would be all perfect (but then again, if it were a perfect world, there would be no sin and no need for forgiveness). The book just seems to superficial to me.
Don't get me wrong - the message about love was good, and I agreed with most of what the book says. I do believe that love is powerful and we need more love and forgiveness. I just wish it was as easy to have it as this book lets on.
I felt too much information was given from "A Course in Miracles" rather than from the author herself (most every page had a reference to "A Course in Miracles"); that's why I couldn't give the book more than 2 stars. Also, the book was unnecessarily drawn out; the point was gotten on a quarter of the pages.

For many years, I have been looking for a way out of my personal hell which has included depression, self subotage, painful thoughts and self loathing. I have tried among many other things, willpower, counseling, religion etc. This book has done it for me. I am a brand new person after reading it.

Miracle from return to love March 4, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Reading this book helped lead me to the "miracle" of forgiveness I have been trying to find/give for years. Marianne hits on many vein's that need to be opened - love and forgiveness for one's self and others. I am constantly referring back to this book and marking it with my highlighter!
Shelf-righteous February 28, 2008 4 out of 13 found this review helpful
My greatest fear? Buying a book that is discussing another book. I bought this book after watching Coach Carter (Widescreen Edition) on DVD. What I found was an intelligent woman whining on and on about "stuff". She's very smart, but then she has read The Seth Material, which basically tell her how to frame her experiences. The whiny tone was so infuriating that I wanted to slam dunk it in the trash. I couldn't get past the half-way point because after a while she was complaining about people she should leave alone. Marianne seems unhappy and quite content to take it out on the American public. I'm so happy I'm not an American. But maybe that's why I don't get what she's on about. It's better to read the Seth material and other books by Jane Roberts as background first, and then try doing a A Course in Miracles after. If you are looking for good reading material it might be better to look at her primary sources and struggle with it yourself.
