Do not be afraid of the ego. ²It depends on your mind, and as you made it by believing in it, so you can dispel it by withdrawing belief from it. ³Do not project the responsibility for your belief in it onto anyone else, or you will preserve the belief. ⁴When you are willing to accept sole responsibility for the ego’s existence you will have laid aside all anger and all attack, because they come from an attempt to project responsibility for your own errors. ⁵But having accepted the errors as yours, do not keep them. ⁶Give them over quickly to the Holy Spirit to be undone completely, so that all their effects will vanish from your mind and from the Sonship as a whole.
The Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond your belief, because truth is beyond belief and His perception is true. ²The ego can be completely forgotten at any time, because it is a totally incredible belief, and no one can keep a belief he has judged to be unbelievable.
The whole purpose of this course is to teach you that the ego is unbelievable and will forever be unbelievable. (A Course in Miracles, T-7.VIII.5:1–6:2;7:1. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)
We each are responsible for our beliefs. They are the basis of all our perceptions. We see what we want to see. The wish for specialness leads to seeing images of differences. These images may be frightening or comforting, but none represent the unified, changeless Love that is all of reality.
The Holy Spirit in our mind is there to teach us to perceive beyond the images of separation to the truth of our unity with all. As we join with Him, we will learn that nothing we have perceived under the ego’s direction is believable. With this lesson, the veil of separation is dispelled. We see the presence of Love everywhere.
