The Spiritual Battles. For Reflection



There have been wars and conflicts through all life. But, does somebody know how they originated? There are many questions regarding this topic but let's begin interpreting and understanding in a personal way, the most delicate area of the spiritual fight. This area is life and specifically the conscience. And inside the conscience, the heart. Evil is always most interested in perverting, in justifying evil as good, up to the point where you do not need to justify but to express it. Its maximum condition is to lose the capacity of repentance, of recognizing evil and glorifying what is against morals and reaching an extreme corruption until concluding with the denial of God which not only is the spiritual death but the psychological and physical death too. Evil is corrosive and it feeds with the lie, the arrogance and the selfishness. When the heart of man has some of these characteristics, man becomes perverted and his reason begins to dissipate. Evil claims the thought of man and it feeds lie and deceit, blinding the heart with the false criterion of the power that gives the vanity of feeling superior, which takes man to break the natural freedom and to do all kind of aberrations, stimulating a bestial lust, a consumerism and an addictive selfishness, which make him violent, controlling, malignant and possessive. Evil can be subdivided in categories, utilizing occultist terms, in the obsessive legions, which induce to perpetuate acts of psychological vampirism, controlling the mind and the moral of the persons who surround us and even to have the sensation that we are the center of power, that we are the owners of the truth, even owners of the life of the others, in every sense and every extreme. The heart, then, looks compulsively for the satisfaction of an obsession, which is never satisfied, because evil does not give security, lasting confidence, or self love; but it conceals itself with violence, insolence and unlimited aggressiveness. The spiritual battle has two contenders: selfishness and unconditional Love. Man experiences a heavy inner battle since the sense of responsibility, tension and censorship, makes him recognize that this life has the most unhappy purpose: discriminate, abuse and use others, with the only objective of enjoying the decadent compulsion for power and control. Good approaches in many ways and warns man of his error. But most of the times, man is not interested in the inner conflict, and he does not conciliate, or repent and he starts to die spiritually, which makes him arrogant and to act without due consideration in his ideas and methods.He, then, does not measure the consequences, only looks to be the center of power, refusing compassion, love, repentance and forgiveness. Then, what do we have? An individual far from truth, possessed by his own ambitions, without expression and without any sign of affection and tenderness, losing the respect for everything in existence. But as the forces of evil keep entering the heart of man, they feed him with a false vision of reality and constantly deceive him. This comes to be like a mask, but later, another masks appear, that are related to corruption and degeneration, which take him directly to go against the good. After all this, the mind of man self pretends to be in control. This mask of refusal makes that he let his senses go wild, that he justifies his excesses, and that he repeatedly attacks the good. On the other hand, the answer of good is to call to order to nature, man, life and spirituality. The excess is not even pleasure but the lack of being able to feel the true pleasure. But evil charges again, against man, trying to get the final conquest and evil confronts man with faith, with religion, with his principles, even with God Himself; evil convinces man that he is the science and that he is the objective, that he is practical, intelligent and powerful. That he has all and even more, That all the rest is worthless. When man reaches this stage, he has lost the ability of reflection, self-criticism, he has left the natural good and has found that all his wrong ideas have been strengthened . Then, solidarity, humanity, the family have died for him since evil has made man believe that he has no limits.
