The phrase from the Bible: "Do not resist evil" is often surprising and not always correctly interpreted. To understand it, you first need to determine what is evil. Are there any specific actions or things, which you can specify how to do evil? Without a doubt, people have repeatedly tried to do it, but nothing can be evil in accordance with a fixed principle. Then what is it? This is something lacking in Harmony, which do not have enough love and beauty, and, moreover, is something that does not fit into our lives. What comes to accept the conditions offered by life, can not be evil.
Evil can be likened to fire
The nature of fire is to destroy all that lies on the path, but although the power of evil as enormous as the power of fire, evil is still weak - as weak fire. How fire can not hold out for long, and evil does not last long. As fire destroys itself, and evil becomes its own destroyer. Why it is said: "Do not resist evil"? Because the resistance gives life to evil, non-resistance allows it to burn down to ashes. Evil is seen in forms of anger, passion, greed, and stubbornness, anger, or betrayal, but the root of evil is always the same - selfishness. In one evil man and possibly shown at the surface and in the other - hidden in the depths of the heart.
In the East there is a saying: "You shall not bear the name of Satan, or he will jump out of their graves. Ill-advised and thoughtless people often make the mistake of waking the sleeping devil, because I do not know the music of life. To learn how to live in peace, must become a musician living. Everyone in the world - this note, people perceive the world in such a way, gets into the hands of a musical instrument. The whole world is an orchestra must play a symphony.
Even in the little things you can see the influence of the same Act. Often the most difficult problems in life arise not because of the difficulties created by others, but because of the inability of the person to understand human nature. For those who understand human nature, it becomes clear that the first and last lesson to be learned in life - this is not to resist evil. After all, resistance becomes fuel for the fire. Tells another: "Do not do it, or asking him:" Why are you doing this? ", Reproaching him:" You must do thus and thus, we do evil only stronger, but tighter bind to human error.
Everyone in this world could be someone like a teacher, but not a teacher in the truest sense, because the real teacher is one who always teaches itself, and the more he teaches himself, the more aware that the world should have so many things learn that life is not enough for that. The more a person learns, the less the evil he sees in others. This does not mean that other evil more or less - it means that such a person is aware of: the enemy, whom he used to see in others, in fact, is in itself. The worst enemy that ever confronted in my life, revealed in his own heart. This causes a feeling of humiliation, but it is also true lesson: look for a control that you resist the other person.
