What is evil? What is good?
How does it affect us?
The creative mind-force of the source flows on unendingly, and according to the thoughts of your mind, so it is you use it. It is said by people many times, that if God made all things, he must have made those things that are evil as well as those that are good. This is of course wrong, but you must have understanding of the truth, full understanding.
The creative force, that which you call God, sends forth continuous power, power to create. Of all created things, the human race, and us who have passed this way, may create, because we are from the source. The force to create is there, continually flowing, unceasing, the mind-force of God, creative.
Where it is untapped and unused by man, the creation is beautiful, all things are according to the law, and the law as you know is the support by each individual part for the whole; but where humanity contacts this great force it turns it into its own demi-creation, and so if your minds think along the path of evil, evil will be created.
Evil therefore, is an attribute of humanity. Near earth, myriads of beings who have passed this way, and have not known the truth, dwell within the laws they have made for themselves, dark, horrible, not knowing the Light, and as you on earth send out your thoughts, those that are in error, or evil, help to make more dense the blackness in which they dwell.
You have been told many laws, one in particular, the law that like will attract like. You know that in this human world it is so, but your minds, these are the real you, and as you give forth your thoughts, they absorb of the Mind-force, the creative Mind-Force, and create good or evil.
When you think evil you pile error on error.
Yet, millions of people live on Earth, unaware of this one fundamental universal law, and through not having this knowledge, send out thoughts of materialism, aggression, love of possession, envy, malice and hatred.
Until people of this earth learn how to control the mind, we will continue to do this. So it must be obvious that with all the uninstructed millions, much evil, as you call it, goes out from your world to make denser the darkness about your world.
How did this evil start?
Through the original geed of man, not greed of material things, greed of power, power to do more than create in miniature, greed of power to out-countenance God himself.
This is the true meaning of the story of the fall. Today, even amongst those people who listen to the words coming to your world, and there are many of them, even among these I say, are those who seek knowledge, wisdom and power, that they might proclaim themselves above, by their knowledge to do this or that, to set themselves beyond their fellows, forgetting the Great Law of Service.
Evil was born by the greed for power, from this has grown all-evil.
In this place you have been told how fear originated. Materialism was born of the greed for power. All was born of the same greed, and it is evil.
Whether you realise it or whether you do not, the key which will unlock all has been given to you. All that is within the compass of mankind to use without destroying himself. The key will be used according to your understanding. You must discard from your minds the excuse that as it appears to you, so it should be, but strive to understand within your hearts clearly, without any difference of understanding, that each time you think, you work for Good, or against Good.
There is a clear statement of fact, each time you think you work for or against Good. Then include within Good all mankind, as well as the rest of his creation. This is what I mean when I say understand in your hearts, all equally, all the same.
Evil then is greed for any power, all-evil, all was born through the distortion by mankind, of the creative thought force of God, all evil. Among the things that walk and crawl and fly upon your world there are many that have, you would say evil purpose. It is true let us examine them.
The snake, the one with venom, how does he become to be venomous?
Amongst animals of his own class and size, those upon whom he sustains his body, he has no need of venom. He is born according to his dwelling, that which hides him from those who would prey upon him.
You must understand thought. Thought creates. Into the mainstream of creation is injected the venom of the thoughts of man. I told you that here in this place by thought, power for thought, thought brought into direct contact with the great creative stream, you could build what you would, solid, out of thought alone. You have been shown how this can be done, by thinking, by creating Light, and out of light building matter.
When you build evil and use the dark rays you give power to all things that dwell in the darkness and breed venom.
The first venomous snakes were deliberately created by breeding, when man knew how to use force for good or ill. Pestilence, plague, all of these are created in the first place by the breeding in filth, through error. Because mankind pollutes, he breeds pestilence, because he obeys not the law, he creates disease.
In olden times you have read about the worship of the Phallic, in its inception, this religion of the male and female principle was more abundant in purity than your understanding can imagine. The principle of the phallic worship was that as the male principle was absorbed and covered by the female principle, it signified to its highest degree, the blending of each part into one.
For upon your world today, and when you think of what you call ‘sex’, mostly it is nauseating to you. It has become the cause of laughter, and yet this is the principle of divinity, the welding together of two separate parts in the purpose of God. So, the misuse of the law brought to your world all those most vile diseases to which your bodies are heirs. You cannot break the principles, the laws, the immutable will of God, unless you destroy yourselves.
From time immemorial the lewd, low thoughts of men have dwelt upon the most sacred of mankind's abilities, perverted the use of their organs, made them the subject of low jests, and in each action, thought, or word, have used their own mind force to direct the action, thought, or word.
You know, or should appreciate after your teachings, that they took the creative force through their own minds and instead of transmitting light to fashion and create, they transmitted darkness to destroy.
Look at our rotting world today. The answer is in our thoughts, the answer is in the thoughts of those who have gone before you, and this is why, to a few, yes, even unto one, if that one will believe we must give power. That positive thought can help to redress the balance. It can help to raise mankind into thought Light.
All things were conceived in perfection. All things obey the Law; each part of creation did its uttermost to support the rest. Mankind disturbed the balance. You can help to restore the balance.
Unless soon, the force of Light is turned into the minds of men and the blackness of error is driven out by the light, unless soon, it will be chaos. Each of you could of your own thinking become a great ray of Light, intense, powerful, willing the Mighty force of Good to once again illuminate all, to drive away the darkness, and to bring back to your world the Law of Good. You have seen and understood how evil came. You live your lives much protected by the knowledge you have acquired, in a fashion you do partial good, because there are occasions when you sit with thoughts, utterly selfless thoughts.
It is that our world has been created so full of evil?
Direct thoughts of error in antagonism to the God-Mind. This is the fable of Satan, the snake in the Garden of Eden. It was the greed of man for power and knowledge, so he could feel beyond his own world. It is obvious that as the Mind of the creator could only see that which was good, for God is Good, that many things were built, and they were things created by the thought force of the mind of God, being utilized by the great minds of those men of early times, and your stories in so many of your religions of this world, which tell of the fight between God and the devil are symbolic of this.
When mankind builds using pure and holy thoughts, then his creation is good, and will always remain, for it was with this purpose that God created mankind. All need to build and further the work of God, by utilizing the mind force of Good, to build glory upon glory, beauty upon beauty, perfection out of perfection.
You have been told many times that God can only see that which is perfect, this is true. To God evil and error do not exist, for he cannot see, will not see, that which is not perfection. To build that which God will not see, man must use dark rays, for all that is in the Light must be of God, and all that is dark must be built against the Laws of God, and so evil was born in your world - when mankind tried to build as God - in pursuit of greed and power.
Generations of beings of this world have built, and built in error, and once they were used, the forces grew with each fresh error committed in this world, until today. If it were not for the world itself, giving off the Light of Good, the creative light, all would be invisible to the mind of God, but you must remember this -
In the first place it was the few who tried to build, always we must return to this. As the Great Master taught you, in all your religions it was commenced by one, and perhaps a handful of followers, and so evil came from one and a few, and to bring back the Light of sanity and reason, and the dawn of God to mankind, the few must be responsible.
Whether you, my beloved Brothers and Sisters, whether it is you or others like you, who shall earn the right to wield the power which shall be given to you, depends upon your own hearts. If one of you alone can be worthy to raise his or her mind to the realms of purity and truth, to contact, because of your purity of desire, the uttermost power of God, if one of you can do this, regeneration shall be born within your earth.
The methods you must employ are difficult and dangerous. You will not be beloved by your friends, those who still can only see along the dark rays, and to whom the Light is hidden. You will be mocked and crucified many times, and this too, that in the end you will give up, of your own free will, material things, devoting yourselves only to the work of God (Good).
I do not ask you to give up your material lives, no, I ask you only in your hearts, in sincerity and truth, in love and understanding, to read, and read again the words which have been given to you, to absorb within your hearts the truth of those words, and then try to follow those words to their ultimate conclusion. Not I, not one who comes to speak with you, not God, or the power of God shall ask you to relinquish one of your ways, none of your ways, all we ask you to do is to know this truth within your hearts, and when I said to you that in the end you will abhor material things, it will be because your own hearts have told you the path you must take.
Evil we have dealt with in most of its aspects, sufficient enough to know that all evil was not created by God, and that although God created the power from which evil has been created, the power was created for the building of creation and beauty, not for the use to which mankind has put it, but as always there is another side, and that is good.
In your world to-day there are millions of people, of which you are an example, who strive, and it does not matter how vainly at times, for many times they do succeed, striving day after day, year after year, all their lives to send out the help of love and understanding to your fellow men. Help that is given to the aged one, the sympathy and understanding to the little child, the hand that is always stretched forth to one who fell in evil and error, into degradation, or acts of evil.
The eternal forgiveness flowing through you, not uninterruptedly I am afraid, but forever in spasmodic waves, this is all good, it is from this we who know how to use and wield Light, the Light of God that is maintaining your world, and this is all good; but if you examine, each of you, your lives, you find that little material thoughts, and the little thoughts of bad, so much predominate in your daily lives, even the thought of excuse in your minds, excuse of some action, or the thought that tries to hide the action from yourself, all this uses a little of the dark ray, but the thought which says you were wrong, this was bad, you must make recompense, these are Light, these and all good thoughts are what we build with.
When evil is on your world, and when the pressure of unbelief is amongst the peoples of the world, you will see no fair harvest, food will be short. Famine, plague, pestilence, suppression and cruelty, will always rule your world when the thoughts of the children of earth turn away from the purity of thinking in the way of good, you have your own history to tell you these things, but it is our wish that in all things that happen from day to day you shall see and understand the moving of that dark ray, and then understanding the evil things of darkness, you turn your thoughts of light and love in that direction, not uninstructed, but using the full knowledge of the keys which have already been given to you, and more will be given.
Those beings and entities and forces, which are beyond your understanding, work with and for you. We love you. For at times you feel we are there to help you. In your error we love you, and in your goodness you bring light such as you do not understand, from which is fashioned power again to return to your world, creative power to give you good crops, to bring peace to your world, to rebuild your world, that the things of earth may supply the needs of man, and that without these thoughts there would be no crops, no food, nothing.
Do not imagine for a moment that you are the only one asked to take on this task, do not imagine for one moment that all the millions and millions of people who, perhaps once in a day use good in thoughts, are the only ones, from one good thought from each mind, we can revive our world.
The things you have been told make you understand how we use these thoughts, and so we build in matter out of your Light, that which does keep your world, and all that dwells within it, so that you know when things are happy with your world, and crops are good, and peace is in your world, it is because the hearts of men have turned to Good, and when there is darkness and failing crops, it is because so many are using dark thoughts which can only destroy that which in life we build.
We love you for your works of good; you are glorified for it, as we have told you, when you work with goodness upon your world you act as God, you are God. Feel our love in this passing time of yours. Peace be with you always, call upon us, ask of us for any inspiration and truth to help you in your work and we will reply, but I beg of you, do not fail your world, do not fail yourselves.
