Guest guest Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hare Krsna A man has no right to consider anyone bad. The evil that is perceived in someone, is not in him, rather it is fleeting. The flaw in human nature is that he forgives himself for the evil that he does, but on perceiving evil in another, brings them to justice. The duty of a spiritual aspirant is to bring himself to justice and forgive others. Being a part of God, everyman is inherently flawless. "Ishvar Ansh Jeev Avinashi, Chetan Amal Sahaj Sukhraasi." (Manasa, Uttara 117:2)Therefore we should not establish evil in anyone. It is improper to consider anyone bad by perceiving the fleeting evil which visits them. Another person may be bad or good, but by us considering them bad, we are inviting that evil in us. By considering others bad, bad thoughts will be born in our mind, and they will cause enmity, anger, partiality etc With the manifestation of these evils in us, our actions become impure. Therefore we should not establish evil either in ourselves or in others. Establishing evil is neither for our welfare, nor the others.
