Live vs. evil

[Guest guest]

Dear KahKona,

 

Thank you for your comments. I really appreciate your understanding that

imbalances and pain cause people to do behave in hurtful ways because they

hurt. And that evil is often an excuse for people to not take

responsibility for their choices.

 

I am reminded that E-V-I-L is L-I-V-E spelled backwards. We are at choice

at all times. The more balanced we are and the better we feel in our

bodies and about ourselves the easier it is to choose life. And soon or

later we are responsible for our choices. Thanks for choosing to share

from your heart.

 

Sat Nam,

 

RAttana :+)

harsh judgemennt to say anybody is evil, in anyway. People who hurt others

and themselves do so because of psychological reasons, often biochemical,

and perhaps even psychological reasons brought forth from other lives. Many

people in this world are in a lot of pain. Unfortunately, if the pain is

too great and there is no realization that there can be change, it

sometimes turns into malicious or even deadly behaviour. But if I can heal

from the life I used to live, then anyone can. People probably thought of

me as evil at times. They were wrong. I was in pain and hurting.

evil entity. Plain enough, I simply don't believe evil exists- unless it is

another word for extreme imbalance. I see it as a human concept which, all

all too often let's people out of responsibility for their actions. We have

free will, and when we want to be good, we can be very good. When we want

to be bad, we can be very bad. And when we want to be Godly, we can do that

to.
