Part 1 of the author’s karmic trilogy. The Root of Evil is a story about an ancient Egyptian woman whose actions were sins for which the soul subsequently pays. These stories are true, and the author received information about the previous incarnations of her soul from two different people - Sadetsky T.A., a cosmic contactee, and Shukshina Yu.V., a clairvoyant - at different times and places, but surprisingly coincided. The work began to be embodied on paper, pondered over for years, its writing was constantly accompanied by a feeling of dictation “from above.” The picture on the cover is E.D. Pointer, Feeding the Sacred Ibis in the Halls of Karnak.
