The following is my understanding of this and it may or may not actually agree with the teachings presented in the "Law of One"...
To me it means that we are all the same but having a dream that we are different/separate.
The differences we perceive between us are merely illusions based on our belief that we are not the same (i.e. "as you believe, so it is for you").
The apparent differences between us are not really there (thus the illusion reference), but our belief in the separation makes them appear real to us.
The mechanism for implementing this in the dream is the 'ego'.
In reality, we are all One and the Same, still sleeping safely at Home with our Father forever safe from harm; we have never left home.
However, we are having a nightmare where we experience the 'dream' of separation from our Father... and individuality.
None of this separation actually occurred, but we believe it did, therefore in our nightmare/dream it is real to us...
Our believe in separation and our feelings of guilt and fear that we feel because of our belief that our Father will somehow harshly judge us for dreaming these nightmares has the effect of keeping us in this cycle of death and rebirth.
In effect, we are running from our selves, constantly forgetting the Truth of this as we traverse lifetimes.
The way out of this mess is forgiveness. We must forgive everything and everybody completely and totally and awaken from our dream of separation and death. Ultimately, we must forgive ourselves because we believed that this was even possible... even though it never was.
Therefore our corollary belief in our Father's harsh judgment of us is also one of illusion... There was never a split from our Father,; our dream of separation is merely a dream and not subject to harsh judgment by our Father.
Our Father would never judge us harshly, but we BELIEVE that He would, and because of this, we die and reincarnate seemingly endlessly in an insane attempt to hide from Him.
Much like the prodigal son story in the Bible, our Father waits for our awakening from our dream of separation to celebrate our JOYning with Him in full knowledge that we could never really leave. But because we share complete and total power with our Father, all that we believe comes to our awareness and we view it as 'real'. It is not real, but we believe it is, so we experience it as 'real'.
The solution is to awaken from our dream of separation, forgive ourselves by realizing that this is not real, and then KNOW that we are completely safe forever with our Father.
Hope this helps.
Best to you!
