The illusion that we have voluntary control over our actions lies at the core of our belief and desire for autonomy/separation from God. Relief from suffering comes from an acceptance that the illusion of voluntary control was not created by God and is therefore impossible. We are not personally responsible for our actions nor even our thoughts, and our sole responsibility is to accept the Correction for our self. This Correction reminds the mind of it’s real thoughts (i.e. “I am Spirit.” and “I am as God created me.”) and undoes the belief in a separate personality self. Such is Peace.
