Evil, at its origin and formation ( yes, there is a process along which evil is ' formed ' ), is the propensity to be unclear, to be unhappy, and a denial or missing - out on making the ' right ' choices, responsibly in response to one's own true nature with which clarity and happiness associates, at those ' forming ' knots along which spiritual - intellectual - emotional - life force ( action ) manifestation of the indivual being, personality or character manifests, with which one then has to live and suffer or enjoy, as the case may be.
Spiritually evolved souls happen to make those ' right ' choices, responsibly, in the cause of clarity and happiness, leading to its rise and presence in oneself and among others. I am not positing an intent behind the warp, which is in the nature of the process how evil comes to be, except the intent and responsibility we each have towards our own spiritual evolution, however and wherever we each are. The individual as he / she is ' formed ' could be evil, not at the source. What one declares it to be depends on what is in one's eye, the form or the source !
