" The
world is not in need of a new religion, nor is the world in
need of a new philosophy...
The world needs people who, through
devotion to God, are so filled
with the Spirit that they
can be instruments through which healings take place..."
- Joel S. Goldsmith
" I
do not believe that God has imposed suffering upon anyone to
punish them or to teach them a lesson.
To me this is stupidity and ignorance. Human beings seem to
have assumed the prerogative of
determining that God inflicts the suffering. Actually, we appear to be responsible for our
suffering through ignorance of our Divine
nature." -Hernest Holmes

"Hi
Nick, I have just become familiar with your work,
and not only am I impressed but also deeply
apreciative of your calling. I always appreciate
authenticity and an ability to take a seemingly
complex study and simplify it for the masses. I
have been involved in A Course of Miracles for
years, but so moved by your genuine calling of how
you teach it so everyone 'gets it'. It's also very
cool you have the background in Comedy and music,
it makes for an interseting and well rounded soul.
So, I thought I'd just drop by and say, "hey,
awesome work!!" Many blessings, looking forward to
future connections," Lisa Zimmer

Watch
Nick on this video sharing about how
simple A Course in Miracles is, and the
pitfalls many students fall into:

Nick
Arandes, before publishing his
latest book entitled What Happens
When You Let God,  he was part of the self-help
movement for close to 20 years. Published
4 books, produced CDs and DVDs, wrote
countless articles and touched the lives
of many people worldwide before
becoming homeless, broke and diagnosed
with a thyroid tumor. Then a miraculous
turn of events led him to the teachings of
A Course in Miracles. That's
when he discovered that to live a happy,
fulfilling, joyful and peaceful life
requires no struggle at all.
"My
purpose in life is to bring love, peace,
joy, happiness and encouragement to every
person whom I come into contact with. To
help them surrender to the Power within
which guides their lives easily and
effortlessly in order to experience their
True Self. And with this website my
mission is to create an environment where
people can experience the Divine Love of
our Creator. A place where if doubt, fear
or worry sets in, they can be reminded of
who they really are."

Excerpt from What Happens When You Let God's
introduction:
 "Pretty much, every course I took
had some sort of hidden agenda, whether it was
through meditation, mantras, hard work,
determination, visualization, focus, weekly
meetings, it was all about control. This seemed to
be the central message I received from every
teacher, healer, and guru. It was also the same
message I received from every course, seminar and
workshop I attended. When I felt my life was not
working, I was taught that "I" needed
to do something in order to change it or fix it.
But what if the reason my life was not working
was because "I" was trying to do something
in order to change it or fix it? And what if
the change I was trying to make happen could end up
being more disastrous than beneficial?

Testimonials: "The parenting question in your
book is right on. You don't have to be a parent to
understand what could possibly work.
If you use
me as your control group, you have 100% success!
I had just
read in your book LAST NIGHT that you don't have to
use the process of forgiveness with kids, but
rather "ground 'yourself' by asking the Holy Spirit
for peace and guidance".
Anyway, I don't
remember what I said. I said whatever the Holy
Spirit guided me to.....something about loving her
no matter what and how I am changing and its
probably a little scary for her even though she
likes it and will always be protected.
In the short
time since then, her ego has been sleeping. How
amazing is this?! P. O. College Professor

" Hi
Nick, I have read your book and enjoyed
every minute of it and am encouraging people who
are looking for a lighter interpretation of A
Course In Miracle to read it. I enjoyed
your book tremendously and it made a lot
of things clearer for me. I have to say
what is attracting me to read you is your example.
Your way of being, open about your life, and the
trust you have in the Holy Spirit is what I am
looking for in my life.
Nick, I love the way you write-we can hear
you talk- and I think what I appreciate
the most is the simple and right to the point
answers. I notice that often ego wants
us to talk and talk or write and write about stuff
when questions and answers are actually very simple
if we refer back to A Course In Miracle. You are
always very direct and simple. It is very helpful.
Thank you Nick for helping with the day to day
stuff. You have made the Course very practical and
easier to follow. Love and light," Nathalie

"Nick,
I am reading your book What Happens When You Let
God. It is truly very inspiring and never
fails to bring me a strong sense of
peace. Marianne
Williamson and Wayne Dyer are
two of my favorite authors, and I have to say that
your book is in the
same category with their books.
Also, as far as its application to the Course in
Miracles, it really demonstrates all that
which is possible through the simple act of
forgiveness and the process of
surrendering." -Megan

"In
his magnificent book, What Happens When You Let
God, Nick asks What would happen if you let go and
let God and then he becomes a Master guide helping
us navigate our inner terrain with love as the
safety net! He embodies ACIM & offers
guidance and clarity to those of us who
resonate with ACIM and journey with him. He gives
his attention to every detail of the Course,
always consistent with the
message as revealed and never lets
himself or us be sidetracked or distracted from the
teaching by a mind that struggles with letting go
and letting God! I love Nick's book and I
often carry it with me should I forget to remember
who I really am, and that, 'I am as God
created me'!" Love, -Carol Ann McVane

dedicated student of A Course in Miracles. I

"Hi
Nick, Thanks for your words of wisdom yet again and
also for the perfect prayer/s that you have given
to me personally and on your website. Thanks for
your book, it is amazing. I particularly loved the
introduction on the beach in Puerto Rico, with the
sea, and yourself as a friend., it was quite
lovely, to make people feel that they are not alone
and are cared for on lifes journey. I am looking
forward to reading the rest of the book so that it
may help me to be happy and fulfilled in life."
Love, Ruby O'Neill

 " Nick, just to let you know that I
have 6 more pages to read of your book.
It has been excellent and a real
down-to-earth approach to ACIM. Talk
about "when the student is ready". First, it was
Nouk and Thomas' book, then Gary Renard's 2 books
and then yours. Many thanks," Pat Hendy

"When
I started to read your new book tonight there were
many passages just in the first 10-15 pages on the
book that just 'buzzed' me. This is going to be one
really enjoyable book to read!!! And I AM ready to
'let go and let God'." -Derek Neilson,
Australia

"I
am still trying to recover financially from a
divorce which left me thousands in debt but
introduced me to ACIM (mixed blessings, huh?!). The
past month was particularly rough, and a friend of
mine gave me her (name undisclosed) tapes, thinking
they would help me find a way out. As I listened to
them, my ego started to say, "Yeah, THAT'S the
ticket" but the other voice (it wasn't very small,
and it certainly wasn't being still! LOL!) was
saying, "HELLO! Where does "be vigilant only for
God" fit into this? YOU ARE GOING THE WRONG WAY!".
The conflict which raged in me brought me to my
knees and I found myself thinking if things got any
more painful, I would have to end it. Then, I read
about your book on d. Patrick Miller's website
(Gary Renard referred to the website in his
newsletter) and ordered it. It just arrived, and
reading about your experience, I am reminded once
again to which voice I am supposed to be listening,
and am feeling at peace once more. I also
appreciate the fact that you don't set yourself up
to be the next Course Guru. I look forward to
reading the rest of the book, and working in the
workbook. I hope someday to meet you and thank you
in person. Love," Meg S.

"I
read "How The Story Began" and tears flowed. I
instantly got it! All these years working with
spiritual healing (I won't even mention all the
paths), I got it straight away: I have wanted right
up till now for God to do it MY WAY! Yeah, this was
the true insight I needed, coming from the depth of
my soul. THANK YOU! I got up and felt like writing
to my friend Nick." Love, Veronika W. }

"Nick,
I love your book and I am passing it on to my
clients. I loaned my copy to one person
just this afternoon and after 3 minutes, he asked
me to order him a copy. By word of mouth
you'll have a best seller :-)" - Mark

"Hey
Nick, I wanted to e-mail and tell you how much I'm
enjoying your book! I really like how you explain
how good intentions can still come from the ego. I
am understanding more and more the difference
between being led by spirit and being led by
anything else. Your book kept me company last night
as I lay awake for hours. It is comforting to read
through the stages and see my path is in line with
what it is supposed to be. Once again, gratitude
seems so inefficient to describe what I feel. Thank
you for showing me what is possible I'm glad you
were led to me!" -Patty Oneal, Ph.D

 "Hi Nick, I received your book
Saturday, and have about half of it read- I've been
letting it resonate within-feeling it-I really love
your self expression and interpretation, and in the
explaining of the love, forgiveness -
process...really great info to refer back again to
in those times of tests...more info than I
anticipated. It speaks to my soul well. Love,light
and blessings!!" -Lisa Zimmer

"I
won't type too much here because I know you are a
busy person; but I just have to say how authentic
you really are. This would be the second time that
I've contacted you via e-mail, since learning of
you, and you've taken the time to answer me on both
occasions. I truly appreciate that you are
"genuine" and appreciate all that you do."
(Feel free to share my sentiments on your
website for any and all who are considering
listening to your teachings).
Sincerely, Jennifer Tilley

"Your
way of Trust to let go and let God is refreshingly
evident in your understanding, empathy and the
surrender that I feel from your response to me. So
I just wanted to thank you for the gift of such a
refreshing and Loving email and I ordered the book
because after reading and feeling your email and
your peacefullness behind it, I decided that a book
written from such an author is truly worth the
wait." Mark M.
