    A while back, I realized I had become one of those judgmental people I hated. Which yes, is another judgement. I've been working hard on reprogramming that among other things. It takes time, or at least for me it has. I was so judgmental of myself too. Im so grateful it's falling away! Thanks for this video!🙏🏻🥰

    I've observed myself judging myself for judging others. Then I address this issue by accepting it's a condition in which we have all been programmed to do. From there I work on resolving how to not judge myself and to realize we are all perfectly imperfect beings.

    This is essentially what Jesus meant when he advised people to take the plank out of their own eye before they comment on the speck in someone else's eye. If you're making judgments it means you can't see very clearly.

    • @danielpaulson8838
      @danielpaulson8838 4 года назад +5

      You're right. I believe Jesus meant what other traditions would call the third eye, or the ability to see and sense someone's hurt and life with clarity. But our capacity to see is only as clear as our own level of resolving our own attachments to our own experiences. When we carry and try to hide pain or judgment from our own past, that will cloud our ability to see someone else clearly. Looking through that filter of our own pain, we think it is their pain. And we can't really see them clearly.

    It seems we're more disgusted at our differences rather than the people themselves, especially when you want them to grow to the same stage as you because you love them so much but they overlook you. We have to do our best to see our differences as opportunities to deepen and have faith that truth seeks truth and is inevitable. Some of us seek with all our heart because were simply ready to. That readiness was there before we became aware of it conceptually.

    I concur with almost everything you say in many of your videos. Your thoughts reflects my inner world. For that I’m very grateful as it makes me feel less alone. But, and please guide me if I’m wrong, there’s a fine line between judging people as good or bad and discerning who I want to spend time with. While one can hypothesize that the universe brings people to you in order to facilitate growth, and it’s always best to lovingly deal with people regardless of how they affect you, there are certain people I’d rather spend more time with and less time with. I discern who those people will be based on what I see. You seem to assess that discernment as judgment. And maybe it is, but I judge or discern things about people that either draw me to them, possibly in order to facilitate my growth, or make me less desirous of spending time with them. It is about determining whether a person is a good or bad fit for me on my spiritual journey. It’s not about anyone being ‘good or bad’. I do the best I can to treat everyone as lovingly as I can, and step aside when people are being abusive or hurtful, and inwardly offer compassion but staying out of their way. I try not to judge people as good or bad (although I’m not always successful at that). Bit I just discern whether I care to get close or not. And yes, the people who affect me negatively are opportunities to see parts of myself that need a light shined on them. I’m always grateful for that. But until I work that out, I don’t want to spend all my time with people who keep pushing my buttons. I wondered what you thought of that perspective.

    • @polyglotta1
      @polyglotta1 4 года назад +2

      I can relate to this. The people you spend the most time with tend to influence you a lot so it makes sense to gravitate towards those you want to become like. My lack of discernment in this area never did me any favours, it just wore me out !

    • @koifish777
      @koifish777 4 года назад +2

      I would draw the line between judgment and discernment as being between an elevation of self and opportunity to put someone else down (judgment) vs. a simple analysis of someone (discernment). you can look at the flaws and negative or positive attributes within someone else without attaching them to yourself in anyway. It’s natural and correct to draw yourself towards energy that fits you best and that you resonate with but unnatural to judge and mental demean others for their own outlook or output. Just a thought
      Cheers !

    I used to have compassion and help others because I once was there and I understand how hard it is to be there and feel alone. But then I got used and judged because I didn't know some stuff or I refused to help some people because sometimes you can only help someone so much before you yourself become so drained. Now I just hate others and don't care to help people. And when I do say anything I just sound crazy. But this video has helped me on better understanding judgement as so many people say they don't judge others but I find that hard to believe as we are only human and judging others is a big part of what we do rather we do it knowingly or unknowingly, we're doing it. Ive been just keeping to myself lately and working in healing myself as it's an everyday process. Thank you for your videos! It's good to hear someone being genuinely honest and not some "I'm enlightened and reached the light" and blah blah.

Love is our common denominator. Being present to ourselves while remaining centered in our heart is how we grow in awareness. You explained this so beautifully. We're all a work in progress. Recognizing that within ourselves which we perceive externally is an important part of waking up. Love to you and all on your path.

    Unfortunately I can be very critical and judgmental. First and foremost of myself, but of others also. When I catch myself being critical of others behavior, I try to think ....”yeah, and when is the last time I was angry or selfish or prideful, or egotistical, or cut someone off in traffic”. It never takes me long to think of myself behaving in a similar way. I happen to think being aware and admitting it is a big step, and if you’re watching this video you might be further along the right path than you think. If you didn’t care you probably wouldn’t have the courage to watch this and confront yourself,

    I've seen this process play out in doing harm reduction work with substance use. A lot of people turn to spirituality to address their drug use, yet they lose their tolerance of people who are still struggling with the same behaviors they used to have. It's just a part of the recovery community and it plays out in public policy debates on how to help address substance use.

    when it comes to judging someone's spirituality, i definitely agree, its pretty pointless to evaluate anyone but your own's progress, but its important not to throw the baby out with the bathwater (not that youre suggesting we should). sometimes people are nefarious, and you cant always set aside your judgment as by default inaccurate, or a projection. sometimes, you do need to make a call about whats worth keeping in your life, or how close things should be kept. we should just focus on keeping our discernments clear as possible.

    I understand this in the abstract, and I agree. However, there are those who have committed horrible acts including potentially criminal acts and then subsequently wrap themselves in spiritual cloaks and declare themselves spiritual. I have known parents guilty of kidnapping their children and then heading out on a spiritual path with a mantra of "don't judge me!" I very often see spirituality as a very convenient manner in which to exonerate oneself from all responsibility for one's actions. In another video the concept of self acceptance is discussed, to me self acceptance must include absolute responsibility for all of one's actions before offering to the world one's spiritual bona fides. Does this make sense?

Religion to me is a set of rules or laws that you except to live by to belong to that cult, which ever one you choose. Weather you are spiritual or not is not for someone else to determine. Only the individual who is on there own journey into or in spirituality can know when, how and how deeply it flows through them. For my spirituality is always there but on different levels at different times and I am the only one who can truly know.

" please try to leave your shoes at the door" before entering satsang .. aka minds baggage and personal issues etc .. some have varying degrees of mind attacks of course. So some perhaps are able to be guided toward that one ness or completeness of " god " consciousness - easier than the other seekers

    I've also noticed a really popular thing that people do is to just put themselves first, but in a selfish sense. The new thing or fad is to make it all about the self but I see that that is only half or part of the whole solution 🤔

    What about ppl with NPD(narcissistic personality disorder) ppl?? Their intention is destruction. I learned to see their traits and not to react nor go into their games. But if you are arround them, it will cost you! So ignor them and stay away is the solution for me.

    We are just passing through in this life. At least we must help or leave a mark. Adopt a kid. Or Change someone bad mindset into good. Could help.
