Evil - watch that it doesn’t interfere with the good you want to do

07/23/2014

Most people are neither nasty nor evil-minded; many sincerely wish to be useful to others and are even able to be so. But good thoughts and intentions are not enough for truly doing good. Those who want to help others must begin by studying themselves and trying to get rid of all the elements within them that go against the good they want to achieve. Good and evil are in fact so tightly entangled in each person that dark forces often manage to take advantage of their good will. And although they are convinced they are being helpful, all sorts of elements other than good ones interfere with their actions, and the people who should have benefitted end up being only victims. If you really want to help others and do something positive for them, work patiently each day to try to neutralize those inner states that might serve as magnets for the negative currents circulating in the atmosphere. And at the same time try to intensify the states that attract beneficial influences to you.
