Thank you for posting this. I was trying to figure out why I tend to feel right about my judgements of other people. I came to realize it is from my own personal wounds and insecurities. This post helps to recognize the tendency to judge and what I can do to try to free myself from it. Love, Oksana
Thank you for sharing your experience with this idea of neutralizing your judgments. It is a very powerful way of both noticing our judgments and having a way to release them.
Thank you for sharing that, Tom. It’s a great thing to be able to notice our judgments and make different choices. Even if our automatic first thought is a judgment, as soon as we notice it we have choice over the second thought and beyond.
So o o . . . True. I was once on a silent meditation retreat and found myself judging other participates for all sorts of things!! I even judged a guy for the amount of butter and syrup he put on his pancakes at breakfast!! What a waste of mental energy and time.
No wonder Jesus told his disciples to NOT judge each other.
