agreed. I just finished reasoning with my step popz about this.. that there is no devil or satan, that the devil is our own shortcomings.. I-man do not blame the devil for any of my own mistakes, I own up to my own decisions good and bad.. even Job said,"What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?"
The Devil is ourselves.. there is no duality, strictly positive vibrations combined with opportunities which seem negative but are in fact learning opportunities..
