The answer to these questions lies within. Look inside yourself and ask why you haven't already phased out what you consider the "bad" in your own thoughts and actions. Or have you already become as loving and peaceful as possible?

When you come to grips with the appeal of the "dark side" within yourself, you'll understand that it's not something that can simply be swept under the rug by labeling it as "bad" and then trying to forget about it.
