Question: What does a righteous one do with the mountain of evil that he or she sees in front of them?

Answer: He is trying to overcome this evil and turn it into good.

The fact is that wicked and righteous exist in one person, and therefore he wants to kill this wicked within himself, or at least lower it, and, on the contrary, raise the righteous, exalt him above the wicked. In this way, one will be getting closer to the Creator. The righteous and the wicked exist in each of us, and the way we treat them depends on us.

They cannot exist alone; they always seem to complement each other. Therefore, a person, feeling that he is wicked, corrects something in himself and against these corrected properties he feels righteous.

But, in principle, they always replace each other, wicked one moment, righteous the next, and again, wicked one moment, righteous the next, and this is how a person rises: a step with his left foot, a step with the right one, then again, a step with his left foot, a step with his right one. Thus we move forward.

Question: How is the property of the righteous replaced by the property of the wicked?

Answer: New egoistic desires arise in a person, and it turns out that he becomes wicked.

This happens in order for him to correct all his properties, so that all the evil, about which the Creator said at the beginning of creation: “I have created the evil inclination,” will be corrected by Him for good, but at the urgent request of a person.
