Hinduism, in its original form i.e. in Sanatana Dharma, doesn't believe in good and evil forces.

In Sanatana Dharma,

1. Under the worst conditions a Hindu is supposed to,


1. Divide his life into independent activities - In this dimension are the four Varnas viz. 1. Brahmana, 2. Kshatriya, 3. Vaishya and 4. Shudra.

The Varnas are grades of efficiency and have nothing to do with occupations.

In Brahmana Varna all activities are merged and in Shudra Varna they are independent of each other.


2. Live in a dream world - In this dimension are the seven Hindu gods 1. Indra (dream), 2. Shakti (illusion), 3. Brahma (creativity), 4. Vishnu (stabilization) 5. Shiva (determination), 6. Shani (status alteration) and 7. Yama (compulsion)


3. Convert dreams into activities whenever possible - In this dimension are the four kinds of times (Kala) viz. 1l Eternal (at any time), 2, Natural (in between), semi natural (before) and transient (whenever possible).


2. Under ideal conditions a Hindu is supposed to,

1. Merge all the activities into a single activity called life

2. Live in the real world

3. Be ready to execute any activity at any time.


In simple words,

1. Under ideal conditionsa Hindu is supposed to synchronize all the activities of his life

2. Under chaotic conditions desynchronize them completely.

The Hindus living in the worst conditions have all the freedom as long as they live outside the society. However, they must re enter the society under the guidance of Hindus who are closer to the ideal state.


Thus, in Hinduism, behavior that is considered in other religions as due to evil forces, is perfectly acceptable, however, in chaotic conditions only. In fact, Hinduism does recommends that kind of behavior for chaotic conditions.


Thus, according to Hinduism there are no good and evil forces.

There are just ideal and chaotic conditions.
