T-26.VII.2. All illness comes from separation. 2When separation is denied, it leaves. 3For it goes away as soon as the thought that brought it has been cured and replaced by common sense. 4 Illness and sin are considered effect and cause in a relationship that is hidden from consciousness, so that it can be carefully protected from the light of reason.
T-26.VII.3. Vina asks for punishment and her request is granted. 2Not in the truth, but in a world of shadows and illusions built on sin. 3 The Son of God understood what he was going to see, because perception is the fulfillment of desire. a course in miracles 4 Changes in perception, created to replace fixed knowledge. 5 But the truth has not changed. 6 It cannot be perceived, but only recognized. 7 What is perceived has many forms, but none has meaning. 8 To tell the truth, its absurdity is quite obvious. 9 Truth aside, it seems to make sense and be real.
T-26.VII.4. The laws of perception are opposed to truth, and what is true of knowledge is not true of anything outside of them. 2 But God has given an answer to the world of sickness, which applies to all its forms. 3God's response is eternal, although he works in time where it is needed. 4 But because it is from God, the laws of time do not affect its operation. 5He is in this world, but he is not part of it. 6For it is real and dwells where all reality should be. 7 Thoughts do not abandon their source and effects, but seem to be outside of them. 8 Ideas are from the mind. 9 That which is projected outward and appears to be external to the mind is not outside at all, but is the result of what is within, and has not left its source.
T-26.VII.5. God's response is where there must be faith in sin, for only there can its effects be completely and without cause annulled. 2 The laws of perception must be inverted because they are the inversion of the laws of truth. 3 The laws of truth will always be true and cannot be reversed; however, it can be seen the other way around. 4And this needs to be corrected where the illusion of conversion lies.
T-26.VII.6. It is impossible for one illusion to be less susceptible to truth than others. 2 It is possible, however, that some are more valued and less willingly sacrificed to the truth for healing and help. 3No illusion has truth in itself. 4 Still, some seem to be truer than others, although this obviously doesn't make any sense. 5 All the hierarchy of illusions can show are preferences, not reality. 6 What meaning takes priority over truth? 7 Illusions are illusions and they are false. 8 Your preference gives them no reality. 9 Neither is in any way true, and all must yield with equal ease to what God has given as an answer to all. 10 The will of God is one. 11 And every desire that seems to be against His Will has no basis in truth.
