Just as you have already rightly stated: there is no such "thing" as "evil"
It's important to remember there is no such ''thing'' as ''consciousness''.
A human being is a 'thing' a concept known, and 'things' known do not have consciousness, neither a low or high consciousness, because consciousness is unknowable to itself, because it's also a concept known that cannot know any thing because things do not have consciousness.
There is only CONSCIOUSNESS...( one without a second) the contents of which are inseparable from it. Consciousness is not a thing but arises as all things, namely, as known concepts such as evil and good. Consciousness is the only knowing there is which cannot be known, since it is not a conceptual thing. And this consciousness that is not a thing / no thingness is never consciousnesses experience.
No thing is making any thing happen, therefore happening cannot not happen. There is only HAPPENING not happening.
Reality appearing as evil or good could never have been any other way...because these concepts known as evil and good are known by the only knowing there is which is consciousness one without a second. No thing being conscious and no thing not being conscious. Just consciousness one without a second appearing as good or evil and yet neither.
