| T3:17.5 | That mistake was seeing God as “other than” and separate from the Self. While it was important to the desired experience to learn the lessons of what was observable within the physical realm, to have begun to forget the unobservable began a process of unlearning or forgetting of the truth that has led, through the learning of untruth in the mechanism of time, to the world in which you now exist. It may seem ridiculous to say that the untrue can be learned, but this is exactly what has been learned during the time of your experience in physical form. Since your true Self could not learn the untrue, a new self, which we have called the ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the true, your true Self had to be appealed to for this learning to take place. |
