The Ego's Trap

Whenever you judge the dream figures and thus make your dream real, you fall right in to the ego's trap - whether you believe that you must atone for sin, or that others must atone for their sins, or that they deserve your condemnation. The Course says, "You cannot dispel guilt by making it real, and then forgiving it. This is the ego's plan, which it offers instead of dispelling it. The ego believes in atonement through attack, being fully committed to the insane notion that attack is salvation." As the Course goes on to say, "...In the ego's teaching, then , there's is no escape from guilt. For attack makes guilt real, and if it is real there is no way to overcome it." ~ The Disappearance of the Universe
