It's About You

Despite what you see, there’s just one of you and one mind. But that presents a problem for you that you can’t see. The projection of a universe of time and space that you can see is coming from that one unconscious mind. That’s where the projector is hidden. Thus your unconscious mind knows everything. If that’s where everything that you’re seeing is coming from, then by definition, on some level, your mind knows everything. Even the truth is buried there, waiting to be remembered. And if the unconscious mind knows everything, then it knows that there’s really just one of you. That’s good news and bad news. 

Here’s the bad news. Because the mind knows everything, including the fact that there’s just one of you, it will interpret anything you think or say, no matter how subtle, about another person, to really be about you! And it will determine how you feel about yourself, and ultimately even what you believe you are. That’s why the Course says every choice you make establishes your own identity as you will see it and believe it is. That’s why the Course emphasizes that as you see him you will see yourself. And it’s true. ~ The Lifetimes When Jesus and Buddha Knew Each Other
