"Beyond Atheism what "ultimate evil" exists? After that point the Tree shows only darkness as an antithesis of light. This means that whatever it may be lies outside our wildest conception of evil as the least likely to affect our living. Symbolically such a state is "chaos", total disorder, the opposite of cosmic individuation, utter extinction. It carries an implication of our entire ruin in all directions and a degrading devolution until we are "eaten up by evil" altogether and absorbed as a kind of "fuel" for the "powers of darkness."" One might say we end up feeding the fires of hell, being used like fuel in some cosmic nuclear reactor of evil. " We can at least feel some kind of some security against such a fate in fact it need never happen to anyone against that individual's true intention."

Tree of Evil, William G.Gray, published by Samuel Weiser, 1974. Pgs 112.

This concludes my reading of these areas of the "Tree of Evil" at this time.
There are some other interesting chapters of this book including a "do-it yourself" ritual for self-exorcism and re-balancing, and another an very novel "Rap" (rhyming meter) about evil and how to fight it (its alittle square, but the rap is good and pre-dates the "Sugarhill Gang"). The Rap is a couple of pages long.
