Dear Mr. Perry:

This firm is counsel to the Foundation for "A Course in Miralces"
("FACIM"), the lawful and exclusive owner of the copyright in the work "A
Course in Miracles" (c) (Second Edition) that includes the Text, the
Workbook and Teacher's Manual. As you are aware, FACIM obtained ownership
of the work through a written assignment from the Foundation for Inner
Peace ("FIP").

Of particular concern to FACIM is your Current Workbook Lesson
Commentaries found on the Center's web site at
http://net.sedona.net/acircileofa/curwkbk.html. [their mistyping] First
and foremost, neither the Foundation nor FIP has given Circle of Atonement,
or either of you individually, permission or other authorization to use the
copyrighted material in this manner. Furthermore, your use includes
verbatim copying of the principal themes of each of the 365 daily lessons
contained in the Workbook, with summaries of the Workbook's instructions
and abridgements of other portions of the Workbook lessons, and
"commentary" consisting of substantial copying and paraphrasing of the
Text. Based on our review, this unauthorized use of FACIM's copyrighted
work appears to extend well beyond the parameters of fair use even in the
non-profit, educational setting. Furthermore, the descriptions of your
Workbook Companion, Manual Study Series and the Electronic Text Class,
contained in your catalogue of publications, strongly suggest that these
materials may exceed the limits of fair use as well. Thus, in light of the
foregoing, you are respectfully requested to cease and desist from all
future distribution of any of these materials in all forms.

In addition, it has come to FACIM's attention that neither you nor Allen
Watson have received express permission from FIP to quote extensively from
the Course in your series pamphlets, despite the fact that the vast
majority [mistype] these pamphlets contain a statement that you have such
permission. Please provide us with evidence of such permission. If you
cannot provide us with such evidence, we demand that you cease and desist
all further distribution and sale of these pamphlets.

It is our hope that we can resolve these issues amicably, so that FACIM
will not be forced to seek all appropriate legal remedies available to
protect against the unauthorized use of its valuable copyright interest in
the above-referenced work.

Very truly yours,

[Signature]
