Good and evil do not exist as two independent forces which continually oppose each other. They are two currents connected to a higher authority: God. They are like the two hands of God, and sometimes one hand slaps the other. The question of good and evil will never be resolved on the physical plane, because that which unites these contrary forces exists on a higher plane. Observing these contrary forces from our human point of view, we can only see that they oppose each other, and we do not understand. Our task therefore is to elevate ourselves to the dimension of this higher authority which can use these two forces for purposes they themselves cannot even imagine. Yes, good does not know everything, and neither of course does evil. He who knows everything is above good and evil, and he is the Lord. So address yourselves to Him, saying: ‘Lord, creator of so many things beautiful, vast, and profound, see how lost I am in the midst of all this. My limited intelligence prevents me from seeing clearly. Send me your angels, that they may show me how to comprehend and to act.
