Foundation for A Course in Miracles
奇迹课程基础
The Foundation for A Course in Miracles is a study and re- treat center established in 1982 by cofounders Kenneth Wapn- ick and his wife, Gloria Wapnick. Wapnick, a clinical psycholo- gist, was a close friend and associate of Helen Schucman and William Tetford, the two people whose collaboration was the initial stimulus for the scribing of A Course in Miracles (ACIM). He first saw the manuscript of the Course in 1973 and worked with Dr. Helen Schucman, the person responsible for channel- ing the Course from an entity she believed to be Christ. He helped prepare the manuscript for publication and has sat on the executive board of the Foundation for Inner Peace, the corporation founded to publish and distribute the text. He be- came a full-time teacher of ACIM soon after it was published. Wapnick was raised Jewish but turned agnostic. After read- ing the works of Thomas Merton, however, he had decided to convert to Catholicism and become a monk. He was on his way to Israel to move into a monastery when he met Helen Schuc- man. Gloria Wapnick is a former social studies instructor and high school dean of students who has been working with A Course in Miracles since 1977. Raised a Catholic, she drifted away from the religion. In 1977 she had a session with Pat Rodegast, the person who channels an entity named Emmanu- el. Directed to Wainwright House, a seminar center in Rye, New York, she found herself in a class on the ACIM. She met Wapnick at a conference on the Course. They were married in 1981 。Founded to facilitate the Wapnicks’ teaching work, by 1984 the Foundation for A Course in Miracles (FACIM) evolved into a teaching and healing center in Crompond, New York, which was quickly outgrown. In 1988 the Wapnicks opened the Acad- emy and Retreat Center in upstate New York, and in 1995 began the Institute for Teaching Inner Peace through A Course Encyclopedia of Occultism & Parapsychology • 5th Ed.
奇迹课程的基础是一个研究和再治疗中心，由联合创始人肯尼斯·瓦普尼克和他的妻子格洛丽亚·瓦普尼克于1982年建立。Wapnick是一位临床心理学专家，是海伦·舒克曼和威廉·特福德的亲密朋友和合伙人，这两人的合作是绘制奇迹课程（ACIM）的最初刺激因素。1973年，他第一次看到该课程的手稿，并与海伦·舒克曼博士（Dr.Helen Schucman）合作。海伦·舒克曼博士负责从一个她认为是基督的实体那里引导课程。他帮助准备手稿以供出版，并担任内部和平基金会的执行董事会成员，该基金会是为出版和分发该文本而成立的公司。该书出版不久，他便成为ACIM的全职教师。瓦普尼克从小是犹太人，但后来变成了不可知论者。然而，在阅读了托马斯·默顿的作品后，他决定皈依天主教，成为一名僧侣。他在去以色列搬进修道院的路上遇到了海伦·舒克曼。格洛丽亚·瓦普尼克（GloriaWapnick）曾担任社会研究讲师和高中学生会主任，自1977年以来，她一直在学习奇迹课程。作为天主教徒，她逐渐远离了宗教。1977年，她与帕特·罗德加斯特（PatRodegast）进行了一次会面，帕特·罗德加斯特为一个名为Emmanu-el的实体提供渠道。她直接去了纽约黑麦市的温赖特之家（Wainwright House），这是一个研讨会中心，她发现自己在上ACIM课程。她在课程的一次会议上遇到了瓦普尼克。他们于1981年结婚为了促进Wapnicks的教学工作而成立，到1984年，奇迹课程基金会（FACIM）演变成了位于纽约克罗姆邦德的教学和治疗中心，该中心很快就发展壮大了。1988年，Wapnicks在纽约州北部开设了Acad-emy和Retain Center，并于1995年成立了通过《神秘主义与超心理学百科全书》第五版课程教授内心和平的学院
