Good Evils: Soul making process given from God |
Why there is evil and suffering? We may have asked it ourselves. What was
the reflection we arrived at after a while? Different approaches would depend
upon how we understand goodness especially based on our view of the world and
God. Often definite nature is given to evil and accordingly we understood
different sources of evil. Such identification of source of evil has led us at
times to condemn the world, our own body and our very existence. Faced with the
situation we also have to see the purpose of evil; mainly as seen a punishment.
Can we begin to understand the problem of evil from a different
perspective which would give much more meaning to our lives? Individually and
collectively we feel the brokenness of the world which was and which is of
tomorrow. Not only that we bear the choice of a defective will in the past but
we also enjoy the fruit of the goodwill of people live whenever in time. Seeing
thus evil is not a burden but an invitation to responsibility to a mutual
building. After trying to give answer in every way that we take to blame is
God. When we take up the above consideration God too take His place within or
although the unified history of sorrows and joys taking due responsibility and
enabling humankind to grow. When we
think of the meaning of evil it has to do with the degree of making possible of
certain forms of life, or equally of certain individuals considered concretely.
Being with and within another being is very important if we want to carve
beauty out of evil. Evil is something ‘being given’ to us to
shoulder it with gratitude especially when one is unable to contain it alone.
One may be able to take up every evil getting into the being of another but how
it is possible when someone suffers death? I try to bring alive what his/her
death makes absent. This would be the call to the humankind in the face of
evil: do everything in remembrance of the abundance of goodness in every being
– created and uncreated - which the shadows of evil covers for some time.
