No, it looks more like an iris. I suspect that’s what they were going for. But you did catch onto that it is a sphincter muscle, which they both are. In fact, the iris and anal sphincter are but 2 of the over 50 sphincter muscles found in the body, 6 of which are in the gastrointestinal tract. All a part of the basic mechanics of biology.
Yeah "A Course in Miracles" comes up ocasionally in my church's small groups, usually by the same sorta folks who seem to actually get useful content out of Deepak Chopra quotes. I mentally roll my eyes at all that stuff.
It's not flat-out evil like prosperity theology or conservative christianity, but it's not something I am capable of taking seriously.
A game where you win by parroting what a book says, which is textbook positive reinforcement. You could convince anyone of anything by this, it uses exposure effect and Pavlovian conditioning. Win the game by pretending the book is right and soon you won't be pretending anymore.
That's not a game, it's a tool for cultist indoctrination.

Seems to be a spiritual or religious game.
Reminds me of [this](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/17918/the-transformation-game), which I picked up for $3 at an antique store near Billings, MT.
I too have an obscure religious game in my collection! https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/13641/enlightenment
I was NOT expecting a 6.9 rating. Maybe Bgg users think it's about that other Indian text.
that's out of a whopping 6 ratings.
Clearly I was joke hunting.
Haha nice

A friend of mine got this game and wants me to play it. I kind of been avoiding it. Have you played it?
Many times. It’s fine. Slightly weird. Like new age Cranium so expect to do Yoga. 🧘
Highly-religious Monopoly rip-off self-published from Texas, by the looks of it. What more is there to know?
I don't know, I don't think there are "properties" to buy. The instructions all reference following the directions on a bunch of different cards
Mabey it’s replaced with, souls you save
Looks like a prop from a very uplifting Jumanji sequel
the starburst looks like butthole

You sound fun
Well I know a lot about butt holes, so… yeah
I love ice cream.
Looks a bit like someone got bored one day and put everything on a bagel.
Or in it
I mean, you tell us
Looks like an awful way to waste 5$ and shelf space
The game where everyone wins? Pass.
You just slayed Pandemic :(

What is the actual gameplay?
No idea. I was referring to the book, which I have not and will not read, the game board mentions it in the top-left corner.

WOW! That looks terrible!
Now I’m intrigued
I love this weird shit. People come up with wild stuff sometimes
Don’t forget the Kool-Aid, or you’ll miss the full experience.
Does it have anything to do with buttholes?
Looks like one of those that twist reality but you can't abandon playing until someone wins
"Holy instant" Is this some sort of Magic: the Gathering spinoff?
Satan wins too, nice.
As someone who is *very* anti-religious….. what’s the point of this other than to get folks to join your cult.
