“How does evil spread, how is it created, are those of us who are breathing out Christ-inspired breath/thoughts able to counteract it at night through the ethers? I have struggled with this question for years, and especially so after reading the chapter in the Secret Teachings book (by Dr. Tazo) on the nature of evil over the past 2 years.”

Hello Dear Angel,
(I shall wisely refrain from greeting the demons as well…)

And yet… In speaking of the spreading/creating of evil, are we not alluding to demonic forces? Which brings us directly to theurgy, as one of the three disciplines mastered by Hermes, master communicator across space and time… What is theurgy? Traditionally defined as the use of supernatural powers to influence or predict events, it practices two opposed forms of magic:

• Black magic, which relies upon an alliance with evil spirits or demons.
• White magic, which relies upon an alliance with divine spirits (i.e. angels, archangels, gods).

Time has come to transcend superstitions concerning theurgy that make it feel like an entertainment device for charlatans… Theurgy is a key part of the mastery of the Self: connected to the TORA letter Qoph and to the TARO of the Moon, it is a high level initiation—potentially the highest—that involves to turn on the light on (our) lunacy. Once the games of Madame Moon are illuminated, rather than suffering from being enlightened/enlightened not and/or from doing the same crazy things while hoping for different results, you are peacefully and sustainably following the behavior of LOVE, moment by moment by moment.

Furthermore, as Moon is unpredictability Herself, you can let go of the need to know and are at-ease with the unknown. The dilemma you mentioned, Linda, “of getting it just right and everything else is wrong” has vanished. And as you open to the experience of ultimate relaxation with life, to its spaciousness, you know to have received your Ph.D. in theurgy… You live “not my will, Thy Will be done” and feel as Sophia, softly cradled in the arms of the Father; IN LOVE! However since Madame Moon asks you to drop control, it is no wonder it would summon powers of rebellion that are quite frankly up to no good: you can bet ego will resist dying with the fierce ignorance that defines it!

As to follow up with your suggestion, could the self-created effects be sourced in:

• The corruption of the Power of Mind/Man and the derailing of generous Manna via jealous, prideful and greedy desires? Which creates…
• The misuse of the Law of Attraction through our sexual divine energy center and thus the subsequent misalignment of our mouth center, the result of which has us incapable to speak harmony into being? Which brings us to…
• Taking things personally, vying for the little self alone instead of working towards the GOOD of ALL? Which furthers…
• An abysmal separation from GOD/GOOD and an identification with EVIL (e.g.; giving a meaning to things, judging them, blaspheming) instead of being balanced within the knowledge of good AND evil and trusting? Which then creates…
• Being entrapped in the shells of ego and soon projecting an infamous lesser God that flips vicariously between being rewarding and punishing? Which has us…
• Remaining in Hell until the negative karma is used up to then be reborn into another lower realm (if only in the same lifetime, again and again)…

Not fun!

On the note of evil—which originates in the selfish desire-body, did you know that Psalm 23 “The LORD is my shepherd. I shall not want” would be more accurately translated as “The LORD is my wickedness. I shall not want?” Same with “Love your neighbor as the Self…” The words “Neighbor” and “Shepherd” in Hebrew are both formed on a root-verb (Letters Resh-Ayin) that means “bad, evil, nasty, wicked.”

So what does that mean? How in the world could EVIL be the guide? The destination of the journey is most certainly the Last Judgment—which means just that; the ability to no longer judge, while yet discriminating. That is the entry into Daath—the sphere of [sexual] knowledge, sexual because it is good/positive as male and evil/negative as female. Then, and only then, will you have access to the Promised Land of an open 3rd eye. Then and only then will end the pain of duality. Then and only then will you have a Kether/Crown perspective at all times, let go of the thought of errors and be able to be at ONE with reality: all distorted sense impressions will drop from you, like old garments… You, on the other hand, will find yourself going straight as an arrow on the middle path of beauty!

So evil (or the illusion of it) has a deep purpose; to bring the Christ, the Messiah of you to arise from the snaky pit and come unto the LOVE of the Father. This vision meets “PAIRfectly” with Dr. Tazo’s beauty-lecture 12:

“The capacity of your own development; overtime, it grows… The more you organize them, the more developed they become. In these specific exercises, the human being grows without going all the way into hysteria. Not given over to any kind of magic [that] perhaps would corrupt the soul. The student is then schooled in a type of morality which allows him to avoid the pitfalls of other paths. Where from the outset, people are taught all kinds of magic powers—powers which, in the end, undermine the foundation of the soul. The foundation of the spiritual development that you take in the world has to be taken under moral forces; These are sufficient to give strength, power and health in a balanced way. So that the virtues of your own being come forth, so that you can coax into the world or nurture into the world the same forces in the people whom you meet.”

I can only be in deep gratitude for the light-bringing demon of you/me that only begged to learn and turn into its angelic Messianic nature!

In JoyLOVE,

PS. Thank you, Martin for beginning this insightful thread: may the warring Mars that is part of your name be balanced by the feathery scales of his Fair Athena soulmate…
