Evil is often thought of as an external force, something separate from us, lurking in the shadows. But in this episode, Gary Zukav offers a transformative perspective—evil is not a presence but an absence. It is the absence of love, of light, of consciousness. As humanity undergoes an unprecedented shift, we are faced with a choice: to continue in fear and darkness or to bring love into our lives and the world around us.

Gary explains that removing evil from the world begins with removing it from within ourselves. Darkness, or fear, manifests in our frightened parts of personality—our anger, judgment, and resentment. The key to transformation is not in suppressing these emotions but in acknowledging and challenging them. By becoming emotionally aware and choosing to act from the healthiest parts of our personalities, we create authentic power and shift the world around us.

The solution to evil is not punishment or eradication but love and awareness. As Russian novelist Alexander Solzhenitsyn observed, the line between good and evil runs through every human heart. By choosing to cultivate love and compassion, even toward those who lack it, we begin to dissolve the darkness—both within ourselves and in the world.
