In today’s podcast, our friend Jonathan Mahoney asks Abbot George, “Could you tell us the difference between Satan and Mara, and how we should respond to outer and inner negativity and evil?”
Abbot George discusses:
- How both Satan and Mara are aspects of the cosmic force to get us to stop our spiritual quest.
- How resistance to negativity and evil make us stronger by developing our will towards spiritual growth.
- How we have to be constructive towards that which is positive and destructive towards that which is negative.
