My Take on “Good and Evil”
This philosophical topic goes back to the beginning of humankind. Yet, it remains subject to many interpretations. Today’s Newsletter positions itself to present crucial viewpoints and hardcore facts of how Good and Evil interplay, how societies have survived and failed, and the possible course for a healthy humanity. My take is that people and nations do not know the hidden powers or schema behind Evil—a most subtle force to be recognized when addressing survival. See what you can find.

Philosophical Snippets
Will we ever learn? This famous quote by Edmund Burke two hundred and twenty-five years ago is yet to be fully appreciated.
”The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
The well-planned invasion of a sovereign nation with a democratically elected president is a disgrace to the free world. One man with ambition can put thousands of people into desperation, pain, and dead children. Why? How low can one’s conscience be? That’s dark. On the other hand, all those good people, afraid of unpleasant anticipations, don’t stick to their gut, don’t fight, and find excuses, no matter how intelligent they are. Is that being in the Light?
The key phrase here is to remove yourself.
“It may be regretful and unwise to remove yourself from the struggle of right and wrong, good and evil.”
—President Ronald Regan

Is Love the main driving force of the Soul?
I wonder if peace or love is a more important driving force of the Soul. Or do both embrace each other?
Peace is only one, as you know; when you attain it, you are in heaven. But peace without love is not enough.
There are several different vibrations of love. Love for yourself is the first one. If you do not love yourself, you cannot love others.
Then you learn loving others. You experience friendship, love, and love for humanity. One day you meet your twin flame, then intimacy and erotic love is a new vibration of love you will learn. And then love for your children and family.
If you have love in your heart but not peace of mind, you cannot profoundly enjoy this love. For instance, if you love someone dishonest to you, your passion will not drive you towards peace because your mind will drive you crazy. In such a situation, love could diminish over time and sometimes transmute bitter energy.
If your love is unconditional, then it will begin soon to transmute into agape, God’s love, that also brings peace in your heart and mind. When achieving agape love, whatever happens to you will not affect the love you feel throughout your whole body, heart, and soul. Thus, you will be in a state of Divine Love and Peace.
This divine peaceful love that expands limitlessly throughout the Universe is the driving force of your Soul and the Universe.

Purpose of Being
“Without creative pursuits, humans are nothing.”
The basis of purpose is the intent to create. Your options are either perpetuating GOOD or accepting EVIL. You have a choice to manifest beauty or accept catastrophe. The fundamental difference resides in the truth that humans have the gifts to create virtually everything imaginable. However, Evil is an external influence that, if accepted, becomes part of your being: mentally or emotionally.
Most people understand the realms of goodness but fall extremely short of understanding the unyielding depths of evil. Evil opposes Life. Evil penetrates the depths of consciousness. Evil deteriorates and kills.

For Humanity
Vladimir Putin said: “I am the wealthiest man, not just in Europe, but in the whole world. I collect emotions. I am wealthy in that the people of Russia have twice entrusted me with the leadership of a great nation such as Russia - I believe that is my greatest wealth.”
So, my friend, why are you scared of NATO? Democracy? Why do you need more? Are you trying to fill your rich emptiness?
Throughout all civilizations, from one millennium to another, millions of men go into battle, fight wars and die for the cause of their leader, whether king or queen, emperor or self-proclaimed god. And these causes predominantly set themselves in the house of one’s ego and quest for more power. In short, men are followers. They find their desires embedded in the roots of those that lead a false path beyond hope clouding their imaginations.
We need warriors for goodness and peace, not excuses for men to kill or perpetuate evil. So, we now turn to the purpose of the military. The question asked: “Is the military designed to protect a harmonious and peaceful society or to expand the ills of evil?

Featured Commentary
What was the intention of creating man?
Humankind was not created but developed throughout. In other words, humankind did not begin here on Earth. Instead, the intention of creating humanity was to grow and expand the Universe.
It’s humankind’s intents, thoughts, words, emotions, experiences, dreams, actions; all this is intelligence that helps Universe evolve, develop, and progress more and more.
Take the case of planning to build a hospital. So many people participate in this project, from planners, architects, builders, designers, etc. In the same way, every realm of the Universe and every person on the Earth contributes to Universal growth, wherein the magnitude of people lack any awareness of their contribution.
If humans are aware of how each of their intents changes the whole Universe, people would be more cautious about what they think, say, execute, or even avoid doing because all of these create a consequence. Are you aware of your creations at any moment?
Fortunately, it is out of our hands if the Universe somehow gets destroyed. It will continue developing and evolving from ashes like the Phoenix since it has an eternal structure that cannot end.
So, people, be aware of your role in Universal evolution because you live in this creation, so make it better for your multidimensional lives you will continue to live eternally.

One more favor, I’m doing my best to make the contents of my post commanding. That is, asserting one to sense its importance and step forward with action deeply.
”The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
You never really got back to this.
You ended with, “ be aware of your role in Universal evolution because you live in this creation, so make it better for your multidimensional lives you will continue to live eternally”
Understanding the ways of the universe is only half the battle. The other half is our actions, what we do in the world and what we leave behind.
You alluded to the Russian invasion of Ukraine which is a fascinating ordeal because of the two nation’s deep history and geopolitical dynamics.
The last time that Putin invaded was 2014 (Crimea) and before that 2008 (Georgia). He has a strategic long term vision for his country and only the previous Trump administration in the US was able to keep Putin at bay - DIPLOMATICALLY.
When we talk about good men standing up against evil, I think this is one good example of someone on the world stage in a position of power doing just that. And those who fail to recognize that, fail to see their part in understanding the battle against good and evil.
You say, “light and darkness are abound. The difference is our perception. “ I am not sure what to do with that. I think we must always ask ourselves, what are you going to do, and where are you going to do nothing? There is a time and place for doing nothing, or non-ado. And when it comes to good and evil, we must not do nothing. Because when we do nothing, or too little too late, megalomaniacs do evil things.
Thanks for sharing.
This forum insightful and necessary. It provokes discussions we must have to find our way to world healing.
