The ego is always trying to find ways to prevent you from closely examining its thought system. "Loudly the ego tells you not to look inward, for if you do your eyes will light on sin, and God will strike you blind."
As J explains, this is not what the ego is REALLY worried about. "...Beneath your fear to look within because of sin is yet another fear, and one which makes the ego tremble. What if you looked within and saw no sin? This 'fearful' question is one the ego never asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the ego's whole defensive system too seriously for it to bother to pretend it is your friend."
Don't let that last statement scare you, by the way - for that is never J's intention. The ego already hates you. If it gets vicious, so what? It would have eventually, anyway. The weird thing is that now when you think about it, you realize that whatever it is that hates you is not really on the outside, it's on the inside - right along with you. The murderous thought system of the ego can no longer be denied and projected. Your only way out is to undo it. ~ The Disappearance of the Universe
