Q. What is the origin of evil?

A. Ra: Peace Queen!

First of all we must realize that all things are relative.

Meaning, things that appear "evil" from your perspective may be neutral or even good from the perspective of another. It boils down to your perception.

"Evil" like beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Now, I said EYE not EYES because I am referring to your so-called 3rd eye known as your mind. For it is the mind that sees and is the seat of perception NOT your physical eyes. Our physical eyes are just windows that allow visible light to enter the brain.

Most people associate evil with something that they do not agree with from their perspective. Moreover, most people have no clue as to what the being who is doing the so-called evil deed is trying to work out or create in order for them to be who and what they really are.

They just see the bark, or the outer appearance of a thing. This is why the great Kemetic Messiah said, "Judge not..." and if you are to judge, judge the tree by its fruit. Meaning, look at it in completion, wholly, and in its pure intent & nature.

Consider the man who is contemplating robbing the neighborhood liqueur store. Let us suppose he robs the liqueur store and gets away with $3,500. Later that evening he gets caught and goes to jail. Now getting caught may be seen as bad for his ego but his SOUL may have a totally different agenda!

In jail he has time to contemplate his life, God, his family, why he behaves the way he does etc. His soul may have drawn that experience to him out of a desperate attempt for him to listen to GOD-SELF and meditate on life without the distractions of the hood.

This event may awaken certain genes that can yield a total transformation. Remember Malcolm X? Consider this, 90% of the most revered and respected beings that have ever walked the earth (during the modern world) have been to some form of prison or jail (mohamed ali, Gandhi, Martin Luther King).

Indeed at the time, they were seen as evil, bad or disagreeable to certain individuals and good to other individuals.

Do you not see the unity of opposites in a jail and a monastery?

The bottom line is this, you do not know what good is unfolding out of a seeming "evil" or disagreeable event, so it is best to simply observe and let it go knowing that all events have a place in the unfolding of God's plan.

That is if you believe in an omnipotent, omnipresent, & omniscient the DIVINE.

Good and evil have no objective reality, it is all subjective and based on the perspective and perception of the beholder.

So to answer your question, "What is the origin of evil." You are.

"There is nothing good or evil except in thinking make it so"

~Rabboni Yashua (Jesus)
