Although you are One Self, you experience yourself as two; as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and body.This sense of being split into opposites induces feelings of acute and constant conflict, and leads to frantic attempts to reconcile the contradictory aspects of this self-perception.You have sought many such solutions, and none of them has worked. The opposites you see in you will never be compatible. But one exists. The fact that truth and illusion cannot be reconciled no matter how you try, what means you use and where you see the problem, must be accepted if you would be saved.

Problems that have no meaning cannot be resolved within the framework they are set.Two selves in conflict could not be resolved, and good and evil have no meeting place. The self you made can never be your Self, nor can your Self be split in two, and still be what it is, and must forever be. A mind and body cannot both exist.

And the mind which serves the Spirit is at peace and filled with joy. Its power comes from Spirit, and it is fulfilling happily its function here.Yet mind can also see itself divorced from Spirit, and perceive itself within a body it confuses with itself.Without its function then, it has no peace, and happiness is alien to its thoughts. Yet mind apart from Spirit cannot think. It has denied its Source of strength, and sees itself as helpless, limited and weak. Dissociated from its function now, it thinks it is alone and separate, attacked by
