Let us look at it this way, for a moment. There have been good people in the world, and in the air, as it were, there is a reservoir of goodness. And also there is a reservoir of that which is terribly evil – we’ll use the word ‘evil’ just to convey – unrelated.
Good is not the outcome of evil, there are two separate activities in human beings. There have been a tremendous lot of people in the world who have said, ‘Let’s be good, talk about goodness. Let’s write about it.
Let’s think about it. Let’s try to live it’. There is another group – terrorists, the evil.
It exists in the air. Right? Must exist in the air.
After these million years – like the television, what do you call it? Q: Waves. K: Now, this thing which is called evil is predominating now.
Right? I’m just examining, sir, don’t accept it. This is dominating the world – atom bomb, terrorists, national divisions, the crazy things that are going on in this world.
The other is not in opposition but it is also working on its own. And that seems to have very little effect on this, apparently. Right?
Are we together so far? I want to examine this a little bit. Q: Perhaps even a diminishing effect.
Perhaps, there’s a polarisation of the two. K: Synthesis of the two? Q: No, a polarisation of the two.
K: What do you mean by that word? Q: That the good is affecting the evil less and less, and vice versa. K: That’s right.
That’s what I’m saying. The good is affecting less and less the other. How do I make that thing which is good all-enveloping?
You follow my question? I’ve done prayers, I’ve worshipped, I have done all kinds of things in order to resist the other, but the other is getting more and more dominant, more and more powerful, and the other is getting less and less. Apparently, that’s… don’t discuss the ratio and all the rest of it.
Can that goodness communicate to the people who are indulging in the evil? You understand what I’m talking about? Q: Why doesn’t it communicate now?
Why does not the good communicate with the evil, now? K: Perhaps it is. After all, you are very good.
Suppose you are very good in the highest sense of that word. And I’m not. I belong to the other camp.
Your very being good is somehow affecting me though I may not know it. It is not some mysterious process, it is a chemical process. You follow?
It’s like fresh air and air that has been polluted. The fresh air is always coming in, but I’m always polluting it. So, how do you help?
No, how do you see that your air remains pure wherever I am? Am I conveying something? Q: Yes.
