Suppose you own a field and in this field you plant both rye grass and wheat at the same time. Both will grow together, because the soil nourishes all seeds, the good as well as the bad. You cannot tell the soil it is stupid, that it should have suffocated the bad seed and let only the good seed grow, because it will reply: ‘I don't understand what you're saying. My job is to nourish and protect all seeds, without concerning myself with their qualities. As far as I'm concerned everything is good, even the bad is good.' And it is the same with your inner soil. If you sow good desires then the harvest will be wonderful, but if you sow bad desires, Nature will also nourish and strengthen them because bad also has scope to grow. Until when? Until harvest time. This is when the master of the field will give the order to burn the weeds and to fill the stores with the good grain. And this is what Jesus explains in the parable of the good seed and the weeds. He knew bad has as much right to grow as good. It is up to man not to sow the bad.
