That which the student will do well to remember is that, with every people except the Christian nations, the Devil is to this day no worse an entity than the opposite aspect in the dual nature of the so-called Creator. This is only natural. One cannot claim God as the synthesis of the whole Universe, as Omnipresent and Omniscient and Infinite, and then divorce him from evil. As there is far more evil than good in the world, it follows on logical grounds that either God must include evil, or stand as the direct cause of it, or else surrender his claims to absoluteness. The ancients understood this so well that their philosophers&amp;amp;nbsp;—&amp;amp;nbsp;now followed by the Kabalists&amp;amp;nbsp;—&amp;amp;nbsp;defined evil as the lining of God or Good&amp;amp;nbsp;: &#039;&#039;Demon est Deus inversus&#039;&#039;, being a very old adage. Indeed, evil is but an antagonizing blind force in nature&amp;amp;nbsp;; it is &#039;&#039;reaction&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;opposition&#039;&#039;, and &#039;&#039;contrast&#039;&#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;—&amp;amp;nbsp;evil for some, good for others. There is no &#039;&#039;malum in se&amp;amp;nbsp;: &#039;&#039;only the shadow of light, without which light could have no existence, even in our perceptions. If evil disappeared, good would disappear along with it from Earth. The “&amp;amp;nbsp;Old Dragon&amp;amp;nbsp;” was pure spirit before he became matter, &#039;&#039;passive &#039;&#039;before he became &#039;&#039;active. &#039;&#039;In the Syro-Chaldean magic both Ophis and Ophiomorphos are joined in the Zodiac, at the sign of the Androgyne &#039;&#039;Virgo-Scorpio. &#039;&#039;Before its fall on earth the “&amp;amp;nbsp;Serpent&amp;amp;nbsp;” was &#039;&#039;Ophis-Christos&#039;&#039;, and after its fall it became Ophiomorphos-Chrestos. Everywhere the speculations of the Kabalists treat of Evil as a force, which is antagonistic, but at the same time essential, to Good, as giving it vitality and existence, which it could never have otherwise. There would be no &#039;&#039;life &#039;&#039;possible (in the &#039;&#039;Mayavic &#039;&#039;sense) without &#039;&#039;Death&#039;&#039;, nor regeneration and reconstruction without destruction.
