I'm not sure if this is a rant, or a debate. Things have not been easy to deal with lately, on any realm, but what I am saying has been consistently true from my POV, despite the fact that I have tried to see the other POV.
I get so tired of people saying there is no evil. I mean I understand the eastern philosophy that it is based on, but that philosophy isn't substantiated by the Bible, the Gita, the Gnositic texts, or Alchemy or any other ancient document I have ever seen. If it is in something I am sure it was taking out of context.
It is true that good is more powerful than evil, and that good can outwit evil and use it's intent for good, but there is definately Good and Evil, Black and White, Light and Dark. The power of Darkness is hateful, and and it kills. It tortures and it mames. It fights the light, and it torments it's followers even more than its unwilling victims.
This is a war, this whole world is a war, and there are only two sides, no matter how much infighting may occur, as one side is influenced against another. A line is being drawn, and you have to come down on one side or another. Evil or Good.
It is strange when you speak of evil and good that sex always comes up. Sex isn't Evil. Using, cruelty and greed are evil, and that is true also about sex, as well as money, power and ambition. There is nothing intrensicly evil about sex. Love is beautiful in all its expressions, but sexuality used as a weapon to do harm to another person is evil. Deliberate cruelty towards someone who has done nothing but try to help you is evil.
Evil boils down to no more than love and positive energy based in happiness on one side, and hatred, torture, and abuse on the other. Feeding on someone else's pain is evil. Causing others pain on purpose is wrong.
Are People Evil? Not in their entirity there is no such thing as an evil person. People are basically good, but not pure good. They are corruptable while in human form, but the soul is light. People choose to be evil, and they invite what is inhuman into their being, either knowingly or un knowingly, or sometimes they are attacked and evil catches them when they are weak.
Evil itself is Darkness, and there is no light in it. It cannot co-exist with Goodness. There is no true middle ground anymore, and probably never was. I am not speaking of religion. Any religion can be good or evil, and Christianity has served evil many times, though Jesus Christ is good, many of his human representitives have clearly come down on the side of evil. Magic isnt' evil, there are two sides to Magic, Two sides to Religion, Two sides to wealth, and Two sides to power of every kind.
It is a choice for all of us: Hatred, and feeding off the pain of others, or Love, and making people feel better about themselves. You can spend your life, serving the dark forces, which crush all positive energy, or serving the light which drives out darkness. The two do not mix, and we must decide consciously what we are, and keep that in the forfront of our mind in all our dealings, both astral and physical. Causing pain to others is wrong, It is that simple. Practices which are based on the abuse of other people, or feeding on their misery are wrong.
Also, If you don't want others to feed on your misery then try not to be miserable. I have found that the Darkness cannot feed on positive energy, it can only feed on negative sad tortured people. Positive energy is poison to such creatures. So if you have trouble with evil psi vamps then pump happiness joy and positive power as hard as you can, no matter what they say, or what else happens. Resist evil, and it will flee your presence.
I guess I am saying that I state my opinion, and if anyone wants to debate it OK, but this is how I feel.
