Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

'Evil' is just a subjective characterization, no more and no less.
IMO, we are each responsible ( response-able) for choosing how we respond to whatever may be done 'to' us - whether this be the result of random co-incidence or because we have chosen or 'attracted' such experience, i.e. because of our own 'karma'.

I have noticed in light being subjective, people do loosely put evil (harm), but don't see it that (subjective) way. So it is not seen and justified it is not. What is the basis of this subjectivity. I think this thought is the least understood part of the cycle because someone in the we chooses to do where another that is part of the cycle can choose to break the cycle instead of continuing it. When saying one chooses, this implies choice.

If a person writes a check to pay a bill, we assume some form of karma is at play.
But what happens if the check never gets honored by the bank? What happens if the person writing the check forgets to sign their own name? Is it the signer's fault? The bank's fault? The receiver's fault?
Or it could it be the person was not properly told how to write a check?

If a person is accustomed to driving on the left side of the road, what side of the road will the person probably drive on if they are extremely tired and in a country that drives on the right side of the road?
