*** Do you believe in miracles? Or do you just not know very much about them? If the latter is the case, and the question of miracles does interest you, a course "about changing your mind to find peace and true spirituality within'' is being offered next month by Ashton Associates . For $10 a person, participants will be able to listen to Dr. Antonio Monteiro dos Santos, a clinical psychologist and author, speak on a subject that has generated a great deal of discussion in these spritually starved times, including a recent cover story in Time magazine. Dr. dos Santos, who has lectured on at least three continents, is the author of the book "Magical Moments'' and one of the editors of the Portuguese version of "A Course in Miracles''. A co-author with Drs. Carl Rogers and Maria Constanca of "When the Heart Speaks'', he also has forthcoming books on spirituality, psychology. On August 8, Dr. dos Santos will speak between 6.30 p.m. and 8 p.m. at the Cathedral Hall in Hamilton. Interested persons should call 295-0999.
