When speaking of evil, people's first reaction would be to get rid of it. Evil and evildoers must be eliminated. However, the counterintuitive consequence of getting rid of evil is to create more evil. Consider the U.S. war in Iraq. Instead of finding massive weapons of destruction and helping the Iraqi people free themselves from a despotic ruler, the U.S. government, along with its Western allies, created endless disasters and committed horrific crimes that have not stopped to this day.

Since evil is a super counterintuitive subject and trying to stop evil leads to people creating evil, what is the wise thing we can do?

Quite counterintuitively, we must love evil, not in the sense that we love all kinds of evil people and evil behaviours, such as crime, but we develop such a deep understanding of life and how counterintuitive it all is. Hating evil backfires. Therefore, we should accept it, understand it, and not punish evil to create more evil, which is the real solution to evil. For example, Zhu Geliang captured Meng Huo seven times and released him each time. The great mercy finally moved Meng Huo and transformed him from an enemy to a friend. Gandhi's resistance to tyranny through mass nonviolent civil disobedience is another example of how nonviolent noncooperation does not create more violence.

Meanwhile, accepting and loving one's weaknesses and flaws is also very counterintuitive. Usually, people are veryconcerned about their sins. They do not want to be sinners. So when theydiscover sins in themselves, they think that the best thing to do is to hatethemselves. They think of themselves as evil and try to get rid of evil byhating their evil. But all this only pours gasoline on the fire. And it willmultiply your sins. Because your psyche has to suppress and deny all that andthen projects it into the outside world, creating even more evil. The oppositeis true if you love your sins and melt them away with love.

Think of how life-changing this is. Whenevery person on this planet realises that when he tries to stop evil, hecreates evil. By trying to hate his sins, he increases his sinfulness. If mostpeople understood this and practised a nonviolent approach to evil, how muchdestruction could be avoided, how much suffering could be spared in the world,and how many lives could be saved?

So let us take a fresh perspective on evil.Why do not we confront evil with peace and non-violence, and try to move andtransform the evildoers through love and compassion, instead of doubling the evil through punishment?

憎恨邪惡是反直覺的

談到邪惡饵逐，人們的第一反應(yīng)會(huì)是除掉它括眠。邪惡和作惡者必須被清除。然而倍权，消除邪惡的反直覺后果是創(chuàng)造更多的邪惡掷豺。想想美國的伊拉克戰(zhàn)爭。美國政府和它的西方盟友沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)大規(guī)模的破壞性武器薄声，也沒有幫助伊拉克人民擺脫專制統(tǒng)治当船，而是制造了無盡的災(zāi)難，犯下了殘暴的罪行默辨，直到今天也沒有停止德频。?

既然邪惡是一個(gè)超級(jí)反直覺的話題，人們?cè)噲D阻止邪惡缩幸，結(jié)果卻在制造邪惡壹置，那么我們?cè)撛趺醋霾攀敲髦侵e呢？

相當(dāng)反直覺的是表谊，我們必須熱愛邪惡钞护，不是說我們真的熱愛各種邪惡的人和邪惡的行為，比如犯罪爆办，而是我們對(duì)生命有如此深刻的理解难咕，以及這一切是多么的反直覺。憎恨邪惡最終會(huì)適得其反，因此我們應(yīng)該接受它步藕，理解它惦界，而不是懲罰邪惡來制造更多的邪惡，這才是最終真正解決邪惡的辦法咙冗。比如說沾歪，諸葛亮七次抓捕孟獲，每次都把他放了雾消。大慈大悲終于感動(dòng)了孟獲灾搏，把他從敵人變成了朋友。甘地通過大規(guī)模的非暴力公民不合作運(yùn)動(dòng)來抵抗暴政立润，是另一個(gè)通過非暴力不合作來不制造更多暴力的例子狂窑。

同時(shí)，接受并愛護(hù)自己的弱點(diǎn)和缺點(diǎn)也是非常反常的桑腮。通常情況下泉哈，那些非常擔(dān)心罪過的人。他們不愿意成為罪人破讨。因此丛晦，當(dāng)他們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己內(nèi)心的罪孽時(shí)，他們認(rèn)為最好的辦法就是恨自己提陶。把自己當(dāng)成一個(gè)邪惡的人烫沙，并試圖通過憎恨自己的邪惡來擺脫邪惡。但這一切只是火上澆油隙笆。而且會(huì)使你的罪孽倍增锌蓄。因?yàn)榻酉聛砟愕男睦硭龅模褪且獕褐坪头裾J(rèn)所有這些撑柔，然后把它投射到外部世界瘸爽，這就會(huì)產(chǎn)生更多的邪惡。反其道而行之的做法是愛你的罪孽铅忿，用愛融化你的罪孽剪决。

想一想這是多大的生命轉(zhuǎn)變。如果這個(gè)星球上的每一個(gè)人都能掌握這個(gè)反直覺的真相: 通過試圖阻止邪惡辆沦，他們實(shí)際上是在創(chuàng)造邪惡昼捍。試圖恨自己的罪，他們實(shí)際上是在增加自己的罪性肢扯。如果大多數(shù)人能夠理解這一點(diǎn)妒茬，并對(duì)邪惡采取非暴力的方法，那么將避免多少破壞蔚晨，減少多少痛苦乍钻，將拯救多少生命肛循？

因此，讓我們以新的視角來看待邪惡银择。與其以眼還眼多糠、以牙還牙，我們?yōu)槭裁床灰院推胶头潜┝Φ姆绞綄?duì)待邪惡浩考，試圖通過愛和憐憫來感動(dòng)和改變作惡者夹孔，而不是通過懲罰來加倍懲罰邪惡。
