Who is Really Responsible For the Evil in This World?

There is one, only one, who is responsible for the evil in this world and it is the INDIVIDUAL HUMAN BEING.
Not a God telling people to inflict tyranny on others.
Not a Devil telling people to harm others.
Not a government telling people how to behave.
Not a military or a judicial system telling people to do bad things.
Not a celebrity or public figure ordering people to be greedy or heartless.
There is only one and it's the person. It's you, me and everyone else.
Because whether people like it or not, we ALL have free will.
We all decide if we want to do harm or not. No one forces you to hurt someone. No one forces you to break someone's trust. No one forces you to do something devious, cruel or malevolent. No one forces you to turn a blind eye when you know you shouldn't.
They may tell you to, but ultimately the decision is yours.
People have been lied to, led under the illusion that we don't have a choice. "God says you must believe in him or else!" or "The Devil told me to do it!" or "My government are bad and I'm justified!" "My friends/partner/family member told me to!"
And on and on.
All of it a lie. We always have a choice, no matter what the situation is. By believing we have no choice, we become helpless and dependent. We give all our power away. We become a population of VICTIMS.
All of us are responsible for our own actions. If we choose to be corrupt, that is our personal decision. There is nothing and no one that has the power to make that decision for us.
There is another facet of modern society that has become shrouded in deception. Mental illness.
Does mental illness exist? Yes. Of course it does. We have physical illness so why wouldn't there be mental illness?
Should it be treated with kindness, compassion and understanding? Yes.
Can it be a way to understand one's self at a deeper level? Yes.
Should it ever be used as justification to do harm? NO.
All mental illness/so-called personality defects are a disconnection from one's true self. It has become too easy these days to say, "I've got depression, bipolar, borderline personality disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD, autism, etc etc, and that's why I did it, or that's why I'm like this. I can't help myself."
They can help themselves. They can choose to go inwards and do the inner work necessary in order to form alignment with their true self. That is how you treat it. But those who use it as a way to justify their actions which are harmful or malevolent simply choose not to.
Society encourages it because it is a way to ensure we have lots of people in a state of victimhood. They slap a label on them, ply them with pills, and the individual goes off into the world with this label attached, in some cases using it to do whatever they want. Those who encourage it think they are being compassionate. What they are really doing is enabling it. They encourage them down a path of destruction, whether it is the destruction of themselves or of others.
It is victimhood that leads to the destruction of a society. It has happened before. Misuse of power, a victim mentality, and refusing to take individual responsibility destroys societies and civilisations.
This post is not with the intention to be harsh, but to lay out the truth. All human suffering matters, both individually and collectively. But in too many instances, the suffering is self-inflicted and it is born out of a sense of victimhood and a refusal to take control of one's divine sovereignty.
Everyone has wounds, often stemming from childhood. It is here that traumas form and where malevolent entities or external forces can influence us. But it is our divine right to choose whether we want to heal these wounds or not. It is our right to decide whether anyone influences us or not.
The answer lies in facing yourself. This is where every answer lies. It is where healing begins. It is where you find who you really are and you begin to live the life you deserve. Everyone deserves to live a life that is happy, fulfilled and joyful. This world has been designed to prevent us from experiencing this. But for anyone who wants it, that happiness can be theirs if they choose it.
