The Ego-Body Illusion (Paragraphs 1 & 2)

V. The Ego-Body Illusion

T-4.V.1. All things work together for good. 2 There are no exceptions
except in the ego's judgment. 3 The ego exerts maximal vigilance about
what it permits into awareness, and this is not the way a balanced
mind holds together. 4 The ego is thrown further off balance because
it keeps its primary motivation from your awareness, and raises
control rather than sanity to predominance. 5 The ego has every reason
to do this, according to the thought system which gave rise to it and
which it serves. 6 Sane judgment would inevitably judge against the
ego, and must be obliterated by the ego in the interest of its self-
preservation.

What seems so simple? Your delusions haven't changed anything other than your opportunity to
live a meaningful and productive life. Being a deluded asshole isn't the easiest way to proceed
through this existence, I hate to tell you. But maybe you can pass the word on to St. Ellen and
her Robot.

Thanks!

Just for the heck of it, "Mike", what am I deluded about? Let's see how you can handle a very
simple question.

I see, you're deluded about me being deluded, along with everything else you're deluded about.
That's what happens when you confuse your delusions for facts.

You're completely irrational, "Mike", but as I keep saying, the Student becomes the Teacher, so
no big surprises here.
