Evil - is merciless for those who do not take its side

01/19/2018

If you truly want to take up the path of good you must be aware that you will not be able to escape attack from evil. Because evil is what it is, it will continue to see you as its enemy and you will not convince it to change its nature – whatever you do, it will fight you. Evil only spares those who have sided with it: it protects them and rocks them to sleep so that they remain under its influence as long as possible. But if, on the other hand, you refuse to put yourself at its service, then you arouse its hatred. You may say this is awful. But it is in fact thanks to this hatred that you will go far. For all the great initiates, evil was implacable, and those who knew how to interpret events could see in it a clear sign. Because only those who have been hated by evil to the very last are worthy of receiving the supreme Initiation. Those who did not understand, pity them, ‘Oh, the poor soul; how unkind fate has been to them.’ But those who understand, rejoice and say, ‘They are destined to reach great heights.’
