The Angel vs. Devil Scenario is indeed the metaphor
for the common mechanism in every living being where one’s mind is competitively
nurtured by (1) the wholesomeness / merit energy via the Wholesome Nurturer, (2)
the unwholesomeness / sin energy via the Unwholesome Nurturer, and (3) the
neither wholesomeness nor unwholesomeness via the Neutral Nurturer.
The three parties of Nurturer reside in the sublime
state of one’s spirit, and they are governed and functioned per hierarchy in
connection with the Transmundane Seed Element & Seed Nature Engine which is
like the supernormal mainframe computer controlled by the Lord Primordial
Buddha (in the case of wholesome
engine), the Satan or Lord Mara (in the case of unwholesome engine), and the
Lord of Neutrality (in the case of the neither wholesome nor unwholesome
engine).
The three parties compete each other all the time to
control the living beings’ mind. When a
living being commits a wholesome deed per the direction or influence of the sublime
Wholesome Nurturer, such being receives merit energy, stronger virtue
perfection, and the programmed karmic consequences in the form of prosperity,
success, good health, happiness, and etc.
A living being who frequently commits good deeds will be filled with
merit energy which enables him or her to reborn in heaven or human world until
s/he will be able to eradicate mental defilement [with the fulfilled merit
energy] and his/her spirit will be pulled to the Nirvana which is the state of
permanent bliss per the mechanism of the Wholesome Engine.
On the contrary, if a living being commits bad deeds,
mentally, verbally, and physically, per the persuading of the Unwholesome
Nurturer, the Unwholesome Nurturer will fill such living being’s mind with sin
energy, stronger immorality, and the programmed karmic consequences in the form
of recession, problems, bad health, sorrow, suffering, and etc. The sin energy will result the spirit of such living
being to be pulled to hell realm for punishment per the transmundane mechanism
operated by the Unwholesome Engine. When
the sin energy is almost used up, such being may reborn again in the human
world to experience a life full of suffering.
However, the three Parties will keep competing to
cause happiness, suffering, neither happiness nor suffering, to living beings
as well as reward and punishment under the Law of Karma which is like the program
or software that operates most of the Existence (hardware) whereas the Law of
Karma was derived from the bargaining of power, superknowledge (vijja), merit
energy, sin energy, might, seed element & seed nature, and competency of
each Party.
