6 Wrong-mindedness listens to the ego and makes illusions; perceiving sin and justifying anger, and seeing guilt, disease and death as real. Both this world and the real world are illusions because right-mindedness merely overlooks, or forgives, what never happened. Therefore it is not the One-mindedness of the Christ Mind, Whose Will is one with God’s.

Through right-mindedness we get to the real world, but even the real world is an illusion. It is a happier illusion, a reinterpretation of the illusion, but still an illusion. To return to the One-mindedness of the Christ Mind, where there is nothing to overlook or forgive, we must first undo what we have done through wrong-minded thinking and to experience our world differently.

There is nothing wrong with the idea of experiencing separation if that is what we want to do. It is not a sin and not even a mistake. We are the unlimited Sons of God and that means we can have any experience we want. However, when we forgot to laugh at the idea and took it seriously, we mistakenly believed in the experience, thus making it true for us. From this mistaken belief fear and guilt arose, and from that a world of separation gone awry.

Choosing to listen to the Holy Spirit is the way we retrace our steps and correct the mistake we made. We can then have the experience we intended before we got lost in fear and guilt. Once we have answered the question, “what would it be like to experience separation,” we can then let the question go, and with it the experience.
