The universe is simple.

You know, most people in the world believe that the universe is a great struggle, a struggle between good and evil. Yes, but this is not true. It is true that there is a conflict, but it exists only in the human mind, not in the universe. This is not true for plants or animals. This is not true for the stars or trees, or for the whole of nature. This is only true for people. And in the human mind is not quite the struggle between good and evil. The present conflict in our mind between right and wrong, between truth and falsehood. Good and evil are only the result of the conflict. Faith in the truth leads to goodness, love and happiness. When you live a life of truth, you feel good, and your life is perfect. False beliefs and their protection leads to the fact that you call evil; It leads to fanaticism. Faith in a lie, and creates all these injustices, violence and abuse, all this suffering, not only in society but also in individuals. The universe is simple, everything exists or does not exist, but people complicate.
