When you get to this stage (and who hasn't) it can be useful to investigate the psychology of the negative side. In my early years I encountered a powerful negative entity, alone at night with my sister in the lounge room of a house we were sharing at the time. We were both roused from our rooms at the same time by a growing sense of apprehension, went into the lounge room, then simultaneously turned to face the same point in the room. Nothing was to be seen, but the sense of an overpowering presence was almost tangible. It was radiating an intense hatred, and it seemed that I was the target, since my sister burst out, "I'll protect you!" Most generous of her, though neither of us had any idea what to do. The (non-) being "felt" to be about twelve feet tall, as though its head were above the ceiling, and after about five of the most fear-filled minutes of my life it gradually faded.
After this incident passed without ill effect, I felt myself somewhat protected against negative forces, and allowed myself to enter in meditation the mind-state of those who sincerely believe that there is nothing other than time, space, energy and matter. The only way to understand this is to experience it. Believe me when I say that it truly is a hell; and to be stuck in such a state without any promise of death - an eternity of meaninglessness - would surely be torture beyond imagining. When you emerge from such a meditation, the world seems so bright, cheerful, many-coloured and care-free that you're happy just to be alive.
Many of the problems in today's world are deliberately created by wealthy, powerful people whose minds inhabit that dark prison even as they walk about in the sunlight, and who need external distractions to keep them from facing what is within them. Bloody war seems an exciting alternative to it, especially if you've created the necessary intrigues yourself and can gloat over the consequences. The dark side must ultimately be as well-known as the light for each to move beyond this polarity. Ra said as much.
