In this episode, Gary Zukav addresses a powerful and often-asked question: Are there truly evil people? His answer challenges conventional ideas and reveals why evil is not a “thing” but rather the absence of love, consciousness, and light. Gary explains that evil is not an independent force to be imprisoned, eradicated, or legislated away. Instead, it is only ever the absence of love - and the only remedy is love itself. When we condemn others, even those we see as hateful, we join them in the darkness. When we choose compassion, patience, and kindness instead, we step into authentic power and contribute light to the world. Ultimately, Gary shows that the path to healing begins with each of us. By choosing love, moment by moment, we not only transform our own lives but also shape a world free of darkness.
