It means that you can’t be good without being evil you can you be evil without being good.
This is quite counterintuitive and goes against the common wisdom which most people believe.
People believe that good and evil are two separate things in life and it is possible for a person to be a purely good or purely evil. They are influenced by the virtues of their heroes as they see them in movies and fictions and strive to become like them.
You fail to become like these ideal hypothetical creatures, because the more good you try to become, the more evil you tend to generate in you. The path of goodness always passes through evil.
- I read this puzzle a few years ago.
- It is time to elect a new world leader, and your vote counts.
- Here are the facts about the three leading candidates:
- Candidate A:
Associates with crooked politicians and consults with astrologists. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.
- Candidate B:
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college, and drinks a quart of whisky every evening.
- Candidate C:
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and hasn't had any extramarital affairs.
Which of these candidates would be your choice?
Decide first, no peeking, then scroll down for the answer.

Here are the candidates
- Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt
- Candidate B is Winston Churchill
- Candidate C is Adolph Hitler
You can easily see that each of these candidates have good and evil qualities.
The Candidate C, who attempted to
become the paragon of virtue, ultimately became the greatest evil person of the word.

Why People Can’t Agree With Me?
People follow double standards while finding good and evil in different person.
They remember all their own good deeds and forget their evil deeds; while they remember the evil deeds of other people and conveniently forget their goodness.
The result is that most people judge themselves to be good while judging other people as evil.
Then they believe that they are victimised by the evil people of the world because they are good.
I only wish that they could see their own evilness and other people’s goodness to have a balanced view of life and develop better understanding of themselves and others.
- Sant Kabir, A famous Sufi poet of India, said so wisely,
- Bura Jo Dekhan Main Chala, Bura Naa Milya Koye
- Jo Munn Khoja Apnaa, To Mujhse Bura Naa Koye
English Translation:
I searched for the evil in others, met not a single one
When searched it in myself, I found the worst evil one.”
- Life is about balancing your good and evil to a comfortable level.
- Don’t try to become too good unless you know how to handle becoming too evil.
- Don’t become a devil in your attempt to become divine.
