Wrong mind is a term used by A Course in Miracles to indicate our decision to hear only the ego, which represents our split mind, and to follow it in its sickness. Since ego always emphasizes separation, our wrong-minded view leads to an emphasis on bodies with separate interests and thus makes for conflict and suffering. Wrong and right mind are ways of being in separation, based on the teacher we are choosing. They yield different effects which, when noticed, are helpful barometers of our learning.
