AM I IN JUDGMENT?

Many… many… ask me... "Is non-judgment really possible in day to day life”? "How can we not see… or say… or know that someone… x-y-z… is angry... lying... cheating.... nasty... fat... arrogant... flirt… etc?"

And I share with them, as I do with you now, that there is a subtle but important difference between judgment… and observation & discrimination.

-So yes observation of qualities and events will be there - but when they are not attached to the inner plethora that comes after that - does it remain observation / discrimination and not judgment! When there is no inner verdict about your observation it is not judgment! When there is no inner (or outer) censure, reviling, denouncing, reproaching it is not judgment! So yes we will view and refer to people as ‘angry’ or ‘lying’ or’arrogant’... etc but we will not add in our minds: “How could they”? “They should not”! “I would never”! “It is so wrong or bad” … “oh my god how horrible of them to…”

- Indeed as observers in the deepest sense humanity cannot help but observe! Indeed life is a series of choice points in the deepest sense, and thus discrimination is part of it! So yes, you can choose to observe and stay away from, or move towards, certain qualities, people and events. Yet judge not what you choose to exclude as ‘less than / wrong’; and what you choose to include as ‘right/better’! Operate only from the deepest knowing - that it is what you choose… need… wish… to experience in the Now! And others have their reasons – even soul reasons they may be unaware about - for their current choices... behavior... however strange they may appear to you!

- If you understand the concept of non-judgment deep within you rather than intellectually - you will not feel trapped by your own ‘words’ for it is your energy signatures that underlie the words that really count! So even if you say not these words- but have this inner plethora within - it becomes judgment! Whereas sure… you may… and will… in day-to-day life… observe and perhaps even refer to different qualities and events… perhaps someone as ‘arrogant’ or ‘cheating’… etc - but if there is no inner plethora, if you are not judge and jury, if there are no inner verdicts - it isn’t judgment!

- Another good way to know when you are sliding from observation & discrimination is to observe your body - if there is angst, turmoil, disapproval… if there is that imperceptible (almost sneaky!) one up-manship that “I am not like that” or “would not be like that”… its sliding into judgment - if you are still and neutral in your observation - it is just that!

- At its deepest this becomes automatic when you have truly understood the larger picture & operate from its larger perspective - that each one comes with qualities & desires for their larger growth and in that for indeed universal growth; that each seemingly ‘negative’ attitude/action - through its very experience - is one more step towards disempowering it for self & humanity; that each ones current beingness is towards a higher purpose which you (or even they) may not be able to see or understand! When you live with this deepest of gnosis it becomes a big equalizer-nothing is good or bad - and there remains nothing to judge and you move away from judgment in the deepest sense - to acceptance, non resistance, it is it is…!

- In this yes, you will in day to day terms, refer to different qualities through the ‘words’ we have of them… but when you attach no inner judgment to words which sound judging externally - you will not only… not be judging… but over time as humanity will use words like cheater, arrogant, murderer etc etc… without the inner judgment implied… indeed almost inherent in these words… we will change the energy signature of our very language! Then these words will become as neutral as red yellow blue!

So dear reader, how is it possible to live without judgment in day to day terms - one simple clue: all you need to know is that you can and indeed will observe, choose, discriminate, refer to… different qualities! All you need to do (to start with) is not add the inner plethora… “they should” “they shouldn’t” “I would never” “how could they” etc etc…! That’s all!! Be kind to self… get not trapped in words… observe where you are really coming from! Operate from the larger perspective that there is a higher reason for everything even if you or the other can’t see it in the now! In that move from judging to acceptance automatically!
