Do we know what the role of Satan is in creation and in life? Except in a non-subjective way, the average person does not see Satan’s violent resistance against the goodness and alluring attraction of God. It is known that the great saints who were close to deliverance saw the devil manifest himself in a form to tempt them, yet the devil does not require such theatricals to ensnare the common man. For this conscious force it knows a little or subtle temptations are usually sufficient. Satan is the great master of persuasion and when a person tries to do good by avoiding the temptation of this world, he suddenly finds it “a coincidence” that out of nowhere opportunities and people seem to conspire to get him out of his chosen path of a determined self. -control.
In its current stage of evolution, a life without difficulties would be of little value to the common man when there are lessons to learn to grow and the need for an incentive to know one’s own creator. An ideal existence in a different realm and time is not an illusion, it is possible, but it is reserved for those who have graduated after having learned the lessons assigned to them during each lifetime on earth.
Good and evil in this world are nothing more than shadows of light that shape the contrasts essential to create the universal cosmic film of God. Against the dark backdrop of evil is seen the white purity of justice demonstrating its virtue. All the children of God must pass through the test of cosmic deception in order to acquire good judgment that allows man to differentiate good from evil and also possess the willpower to overcome all tests and trials to finally free himself from the game of cat and mouse temptation of Satan. You will find that when you want to do evil in this world, this will help you, just as it takes no effort for a ball to roll down the hill, but when you want to start on the spiritual path, you will find yourself swimming against the sky. world stream.
God could simply counteract the influence of Satan’s temptation, but this would counteract man’s free choice and make him a pawn. In the scheme of the Lord’s creation drama, His cosmic spectacle is perhaps discovering whether His children will choose to choose Him (applying good judgment) over the deceptive power of Satan’s appearances (cosmic deception). Man succumbs to evil due to the influence of prenatal and postnatal tendencies and bad habits of the past that are consciously driven by evil satanic entities residing in the brain. Evil obsessive entities can be dislodged from the brain by practicing self-control, right actions, and higher meditations given by one’s guru. Every worthy cause requires hard work against hostile forces, but we must fight these forces with an iron fist. If you use good judgment at all times, you will ultimately succeed.
In a certain sense, misery is the benefactor of man, because it forces him to seek sadness-transcendence in God. Except in a relative sense, it is difficult to find a dividing line between good and evil. Seeing Satan as a real being is rejected as a mere medieval superstition and who could be slain like a dragon by the sword of a conquering knight. By saying that the origin of evil is subjective, some try to explain that Satan arises from psychological causes of the actions and thoughts of man himself. Perhaps this could be said in an atrocious case committed by souls who were so wicked that they caused affliction to their fellow men; But that does not take into account the premature death, injury, and pain of illness. Some see evil as subjective and all these miseries as a result of the bad decisions and actions of man due to the lack of unity with the universal rules. It is certainly true in this sense that evil begets itself in the life of man. There is a divine gift of free will that man possesses to align himself with the immortality, peace, and goodness of God.
It seems that only after being burned by the seductive flames of painful excess do many learn to control themselves. It is far more prudent to avoid harmful lessons by observing the painful consequences inflicted on others by exercising good judgment and spiritual guidance. Many facts support the argument that evil is subjective and that people can be held responsible for the misuse of reason that subsequently causes disharmony and creates evil. However, the explanation is flawed and cannot adequately explain all aspects of evil in creation. Due to the influence of Satan, man is affected by a fallacious conception of death as annihilation, instead of imagining its underlying immutability. Satan, casting his net of deception like a fisherman around all mankind, is constantly dragging man into the bondage of finiteness, death, and deception. Satan continually tries to bait mankind with promises of pleasure and greed and guides people to repeat self-destructive reincarnations and destruction. Once a wish is fulfilled, the dazzling temptations of Satan force man to fall into his worldly webs, always suggesting new wishes in the consciousness of man to induce him to reincarnation again and again.
Satan could be annihilated in an instant by the Almighty, but because God gave all men and also Satan, souls of independence can only be released with your cooperation and permission. There is such a deceptive attachment to the physical body that has been created by Satan that even at this time if God offered freedom and deliverance to all the masses, few would be eager to leave this joyous playground to flee from their relatives. bodily home with all its possessions and sensory pleasures. Those attached to the body oriented to the senses are uncompromisingly reluctant to give up the pleasure known as the mysterious joy of the spirit.
Earth is the school where so much learning must be experienced before man is ready to use his free will to discriminate against the emancipatory patterns of God and all the deceptive patterns of Satan that bind the soul. Man cannot be held responsible for being tempted, but he is responsible for choosing to act on evil temptations. From the beginning the satanic force is, was and will be the devil, as we know, the liar and murderer.
Millions of bacteria and armies of invisible virulent microbes silently move about our land on the prowl, like ravenous insects, to wipe out the harvest of humans. Animals and plants that have no karma or free choice of their own are infested with innumerable diseases. Death by cataclysms, famines and floods where millions of people are destroyed, it seems impossible that bad karma has caused such suffering and that so many have been annihilated at the same time. How do you explain cannibalism in nature? Big fish eat little fish – baby salmon survive by living off their mother’s meat.
If God is good and man is made in the image of God, then logically man should be nothing other than good. So why do men murder each other in war and out of territorial and industrial selfishness and why can’t this be avoided through parliamentary negotiations? Why do thoughts of greed, revenge, jealousy, wrong judgment, and selfishness arise in the human mind? It is because evil existed from the beginning to deceive and influence man’s free choice. The power to influence wrong decisions in men, all death-bearing germs, natural cataclysms, physical temptation, animals that attack each other and the devastating forces of nature were not created by man. The story tells of the burning of witches and martyrs at the stake in the name of the Christian faith, the crusaders who fought in the name of Jesus who preached love to the enemy and the Aztecs who before their idol Gods cut the hearts of their prisoners of war, more than a hundred at a time. The Indian emperor Tamerlane killed nearly a million Hindus after his conquest and despots like Hitler who gained control of power to wreak havoc and horrors on civilization.
The unsolved riddle still persists. Did God in his perfect plan have Satan at his origin? God himself responded to Isaiah: “I am the Lord and there is no other; I create evil and make peace, I form light and create darkness, I, the Lord, do all these things.” Some men rebelliously protest why the almighty Lord who knows the sufferings of man would let vulnerable mortals suffer the scourge and temptations of Satan. Don’t assume that God is having fun in your heavenly existence with selfish joy. God is definitely suffering the tragedies of man’s late evolution to his heavenly paradise. God’s compassionate love has been generously expressed. He has sent divine saviors to us through his incarnate children, who aloud speak his silent voice from the kingdom of heaven.
While one is still fighting deception, it is sheer madness to reject objective or subjective evil. We urgently need to protect ourselves and be on the lookout for destructive patterns of temptations and evil everywhere. Man should never consider it possible to beat Satan at his own game. Just when someone feels invulnerable and bulletproof, Satan cleverly deceives his challenger with some subterfuge and the opponent loses. It is better not to play their game of temptation. There are numerous entertaining games on God’s playing field to test one’s mettle and show whether one can come out as a commendable winner. It is wise not to reject Satan as nothing more than a hoax. Always remember that the environment is stronger than the willpower. Be careful who you interact with at all times.
