          USP-062  'Looking for evil in order to be evil'


Understanding Suppression Series # 62

(See Footnote for understanding)



One of many definitions of 'Suppressive Person':

Someone who, when he DOES look at someone else's short-comings and
mistakes, only does so in order to make the other person wrong and to
make himself 'feel superior', or in order to control and dominate the
other into following rules or social conventions in a suppressive way.

A Suppressive Person only looks at what he wants to see - in order to
prove to himself and to others how right his suppressive behavior
towards himself and others is.


This is reasonably well-known behavior of a Suppressive Person.
It is the test of a decent person not to be swayed or influenced
by such behavior.
That test is also reasonably well-known.


What makes this test complicated is the type of Suppressive Person
described in the previous Issue,
USP-061 '"It is all a misunderstanding"':
The "innocent bystander", the "impartial observer" who attacks
anybody who observes suppression, and who attacks anybody who
responsibly points out evil in order to remedy it.

Footnote:

You can't have or maintain good without understanding evil.

NONE of the present sciences, therapies and religions, and
none of the "-isms" or "-ologies" of today understand evil
or suppression.

Yet they have abundant - and sometimes very expensive -
recipes for "being good forever". Even when they claim to
understand evil, they want to be unaware of and hide their
own evil and so they become evil themselves, and they meet
evil with evil in order "to defend themselves or their group".

It is not possible to handle properly someone who is evil or
something that is evil WITHOUT understanding WHAT PRECISELY
you are handling.

YOU CAN'T HANDLE AN EVIL BEING, FOR INSTANCE, UNLESS YOU
UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE HANDLING A BEING, AND THAT YOU ARE
HELPING HIM - A BEING - TO CONTROL HIS EVIL.

The Understanding Suppression Series will help you - maybe
for the first time - to understand evil well enough in order
to maintain good. I have taken care to write as easy to
understand as possible. The Series starts out very simple,
and currently consists of about 150 separate observations.

Keeping this knowledge to yourself will not maintain good
- because others, lacking understanding of evil, will
unintentionally assist evil - but you sharing this knowledge
with others WILL make you win over evil, and WILL safeguard
good.
