Guest guest Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 Thank you for sharing this, Neo. Yes, it's my experience too, it is all-pervasive, this judging. And as far as I have noticed it is always about better or worse. Noticing the judging happening and the folly of it seems to have brought clarity with you, isn't that great, these discoveries? It's such a folly because we just see projections, it has nothing to do with the man in front of us. He's simply there to bring us clarity, and it was a happy moment that he did too!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 This is beautiful Neo, thank you. I see this in myself, how I in my mind have pushed people away, because I didn´t like the way they showed up. When all there was, was someone showing up. And whatever I chose to do with his or her appearence, it has nothing to do with them. My thinking of them make me suffer, what has it got to do with them? My thinking of them make me feel peace, what has it got to do with them? Nothing, nothing. It´s all me, and I am as innocent as a newborn child. All there is is some innocent thoughts. Love that you show up, Neo, > > Today I have been looking at how I use my judgements to separate me > from others.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 Dear Neo, Thanks for sharing this: " Something clicked in me and I had a brief moment of clarity, when I could see that none of my judgements were true. Here was this beautiful man just trying to be friends with me, while I was busy trying my best to push him away. " Sounded like a very good definition of the difference between a " Special Relationship " vs " A Holy Instant " .
