If we are to look at the natural world, whether from the perspective of a physicist or of an artist, we can see that everything in nature originates from, exists in and leads to oneness and balance, because the creation is meant to ever more reflect the beauty and goodness of the divine nature, which is One.
We can then understand that all that opposes natural laws of harmony leads to human experiences of separation, chaos, suffering and fear. These forces of chaos could be called “dark forces”.
These forces currently promote endless war as a way to peace, the ruin of our earthly environment as a way to wealth and abundance, bigotry, intolerance and oppression as a path to righteousness, and tyranny as a form of security, because they conquer us by dividing the world and derive their temporary power from our global fears, conflicts and despair.
The most important question today is then spiritual, yet it is not necessarily those who hold the Bible, the Koran or the Torah in their hands who are on the side of the light.
Watch what any given culture, civilization or people, no matter who or what they claim to be, do to the land, the air, the water, to all of creation and to humanity, and you will know whether they are on the side of harmony or chaos, and promote peace or inequity and suffering, and their own selfish aims at the expense of others and of all forms of life, and in opposition to the divine spirit, which, unlike our presently very misguided civilization, needs not control or possess everything in the outer world because it is already everything, it is All, and One.
