Light - the only weapon we should use

08/24/2011

The two principles of light and dark are forever at war in the world. If you take sides with darkness, light will attack you, and if you take sides with light you will be attacked by darkness. You should know this and be ready to defend yourself. But you will have to be careful with this too, because it’s not a question of defending yourself any way you can; the only weapons you should use are those of light. Yes, for if you fight back using the means of darkness – hate, cruelty and violence – you will go crashing down into regions where these hostile forces confront each other and tear each other apart, and you will experience darkness and weakness. Bear this in mind: these enemies are a temptation presented by the invisible world. To get the better of them, we tend to fight back using the same methods they use. But enemies can also be a blessing, if we seek to respond with the higher weapon, light.
