David, when one judges is that not one's ego getting between oneself and God?

I find when u accept the what is an leave the judgment to a higher source, life is easy. Shall we not accept the 'what is' as it happened for a reason; however hurtful, painful, it came our way to strengthen us to be better humans.

Hello Zahida,

Interesting questions and many possible answers. It seems to me that we live in a time where there is much more available to us than we are willing to ask for. As for judging, yes it is bad and yes it keeps you separated from knowing God. In addition to that I would say that if we take the position of observer and then look at our favorite things to judge we will observe that it is not the observer that is judging. It is something else, something that we have tended to Identify with as us or as me and it is neither. The lie is that we are judging, we are not, the judging is being done by something that we allow to come through us that in our relative unconsciousness we Identify as us. To fix the judging which in fact does disable us we need to maintain our observer point of view and watch the judging as it comes to us and refuse to react to it in any way. Then you will know what it is to be free and who it is that you truly are.

Living in allowance of what is it what brings the presence of the divine into this reality, it is your divine presence that is a blessing to others, bless them with it by allowing all others to be as they choose and they will choose better than they did before.
