People of all religions and spiritual traditions
need to be mindful not to blame ‘bad people behavior’
on made up myths like the ‘devil’…
This has disastrous effects.
This is one of the many issues with organized religions
that need to transcend to Higher, Deeper, and wiser ways.
By all means,
include the core meanings of the Divine message,
but unless old archaic perspectives are not transcended…
Only more hate, wars, division and turmoil will ensue.
When people are taught that ‘bad people behavior’ is evil…
“the work of the devil”…
Then,
There can be no negotiating with “evil”…
Even if it is your wife, husband, parents, siblings, neighbor…
This just continues to perpetuate the problems man has created for himself.
I hope all people can find, in their own way,
A way to bring about the teachings of Divinity
in way that does not perpetuate the
misery, pain and suffering that most of humanity needlessly faces.
We don’t have to wait to die and go to “heaven” or nirvana
before we can be liberated from the inherent troubles, we all face…
Unless we work on the core reasons of
why our collective societies
continue to struggle with ‘bad people behavior’…
It will feel like “hell on earth”
until humanity no longer has a chance to move from
an existence of deficiencies…
to live in a world of abundance.
