What Is Evil?

Does God allow evil to exist? If God is universal, infinite, and omnipotent, then what is evil? If God is the essence of life, of health, and of selfless, nurturing love, then where does malignant will and selfishness, hatred and harmful behavior, come from? What is evil?

The answer must be that God is Itself in a condition of expanding, penetrating and enlightening the universe. God is constantly becoming. And we who recognize the becoming of God as the underlying trend of all life can will ourselves to be carried along by the positive energy and become part of the force for good, the antidote to evil. We are the light shining into the darkness of chaos, illuminating the human soul.
