Purpose is within duality

'Perception has no purpose'   'In God you cannot see. Perception has no function in God, and does not exist.

-Lesson 43

Just a few lessons before, you are not living a random life.... 

'Your passage through time and space is not at random. You cannot but be in the right place at the right time.'  Lesson 42

The idea of perception and purpose requires duality. Both concepts are worldly ideas. For one to see, the object needs to be other than us. 

Purpose supports the idea of an individual self living in a world of otherness, thus god has no purpose external to himself.
