The origins of evil are the same as the root causes of all mankind's problems: ignorance, prejudice, apathy, hatred, envy, jealousy, and greed which arise from within man because of his yetzer harah (evil inclination). Evil arises from ignorance about YHWH's6 instructions, ethics and morals, a lack of sympathy, compassion, and empathy for your neighbor, and lusting after more than one deserves and needs. Evil is manifest through the behavior of man, but yet it exists beyond the realm of actions it exists in the heart and... More >>>Book can be downloaded.

✦ A Call to the Kind-Hearted ✦
Since the dark moon of early 2008, darkbooks.org has endured as a sanctuary for those who seek forbidden knowledge and sacred fire. I give freely of my time to keep this library breathing — but time, like flame, is not without its fuel.
The keeping of this archive, the tending of the digital hearth, and the answering of messages from kindred spirits — all these I do between the labors of earthly survival. My days are divided between devotion and the demands of coin, for the mortal world does not pay in candles and dreams.
Should you find it within your heart to make a contribution, know that your gift lightens my burden and lengthens the hours I may spend among the tomes. Even the smallest coin, placed upon the altar of this work, helps keep the servers breathing and the gates open.
Let this work endure.
Let the library grow.
Let knowledge remain free as fire and as ancient as bone.
The origins of evil are the same as the root causes of all mankind's problems: ignorance, prejudice, apathy, hatred, envy, jealousy, and greed which arise from within man because of his yetzer harah (evil inclination). Evil arises from ignorance about YHWH's6 instructions, ethics and morals, a lack of sympathy, compassion, and empathy for your neighbor, and lusting after more than one deserves and needs. Evil is manifest through the behavior of man, but yet it exists beyond the realm of actions it exists in the heart and mind of every man and woman. As long as mankind exists, you will find the evil inclination (yetzer harah) within him. It is a matter of man's free choice and exercising the gift of free will.
The Torah is in the form of a book but it not a book. It is not a written text but a living text. Concealed within it is a living soul, a consciousness. It is alive it is aware it knows itself and its Creator, and it knows mankind. The Torah cannot be read like a book, as that only disguises its real intent. One has to go behind the written text of the Torah and find its hidden secrets, as these are the paths to contacting its living essence. Then it will speak to you and you will hear the voice of the Torah, the inner voice of your consciousness, in the secret place where the conscious mind unites with the unconscious.
