Parents who blame themselves for the bad behavior of their grown children may be a little more satisfied. To a large extent, they are not to blame for this, at least when it comes to their educational influence on their offspring. Parents cannot change their character through their upbringing; they can basically do nothing about it. However, they can contribute to their child learning to control and not show their bad qualities, and through educational training, they train them to hide their negativities, according to the cultural and social stereotype in which their family and social environment are located. The innate nature of the soul, even if it tries not to show itself outwardly, bubbles up inside and breaks through the shell of social customs. When a relationship crisis occurs or a social situation escalates, a person’s true nature manifests itself, and then people wonder „what is happening to these people, where did they get all this tendency to brutality and betrayal…“. It didn’t come from anywhere; it was always there, hidden behind the customs set by upbringing and social norms about what is appropriate and what is not. When social customs change, the boundaries of what is acceptable shift, and objectionable acts are tolerated. We see this in today’s rapidly changing times.
People often think that all people are basically good. This is not the case at all. It is a fundamental and confusing cliché that has entered the human collective mind from spiritual or religious teachings. The reason for the emergence of this superstition was probably the intention to manipulate people into believing the deceptions and forgiving negative spirits.
The soul is not a completely mysterious and enigmatic entity that exists somewhere. We know something about the soul, or at least we think so. The soul is manifested from higher spheres to the human, manifested on the earthly level. If the being is not on the physical plane, then it is manifested on the astral plane, reflected also from higher spheres. The soul is a complex phenomenon; it is what defines a person, sets his physical body, his emotional and mental states; and therefore his behavior and all his changes. The soul is like a matrix in a printing house, according to which a book is printed – a person. A person is a reflection of the soul in the mirror of the earthly world visible to the senses, and vice versa, the soul is an image of a person.
Souls were created with different natures, with different shades of Light and different Signs, and these then manifest in a person from his beginning, throughout his existence. Together, we can summarize them under the term Properties of the Soul. Very simply, for better understanding, we could say that souls were created as Positive or Negative. A soul has more properties, and when the majority of them are significantly opposite, we can say that it has negative (bad) properties and therefore that it is a Negative Soul. The opposite is also true; when a soul has positive properties, it is a positive (good) soul. Even a Positive Soul can be dark, because it can have a lot of blockages and programs stuck to it, which are all dark and blacken the soul.
Souls that were created as Negative are essentially favored in that their characteristics predispose them to rule. Rulers of nations, in relationships, in families, in jobs, in social functions, at various levels of power and tyranny. Unscrupulousness, climbing up on the backs of others, enjoying power, predatoryness, lack of conscience, manipulativeness, deceit, all this helps them to become rulers, to climb steeply and quickly up the career ladder. They often abuse their gifts and their power for their own pleasure, for the pleasure of power, for enrichment, for enslaving others, for tyranny, for destroying lives, up to the destruction of the world. This will ultimately lead them to Damnation if they do not change in time and permanently.
Positive souls do not enjoy power over others very much, fame does not satisfy them that much, excessive wealth is an emptiness for them. Positive ones become typical victims and slaves of Negative, powerful souls. They cannot defend themselves against Negative ones, they think that this is how it should be, that it is the Status Quo that cannot be changed. When Positive ones do not use their Qualities and intuition for a long time, they become stunted and then remain in slavery to Negative ones for ages. They become their food, their slaves and servants; they join the Negative Side of Darkness and help it with the acquisitions of their abilities and talents.
The power of the Negative lies in their innate aggressiveness, ability to lie with a smile and charm, to shamelessly manipulate. They lack a conscience. Their character traits are mixed in varying proportions. Within their negative actions, their intuition does not tell them anything in the sense that they are doing something wrong, and their conscience does not discourage them from doing so. Extraordinary feelings of guilt do not discourage them from bad deeds because they are hidden as inactive, covered with a thick layer of pleasant feelings resulting from power over others and from the negativities they commit. The Negative ones, in their dark mind and low intuition, often think that they are acting correctly, despite the obviously negative consequences of their actions. They have not used their conscience for a very long time and have always covered it up, and so it has become stunted, similar to when your legs degenerate because you have not used them for a long time.
Souls also have reason, intelligence, and feeling, and they have them available in order to recognize how it is. If the Positive ones let themselves be deceived and enslaved by Negative people (souls), then they are also on the road to the Nightmare Alley. The evolution of the Positive ones consists in recognizing how it all is and moving in a certain sense also towards the center, from the opposite side than the Dark ones. They must learn that being too good is not always good and may lead them astray. They must become a little Negative in order to resist the Negative souls and free themselves from them. What it means to “become a little negative” is individual.
